Hmmm...I wonder why the headline didn't read:

Murderous Shopkeeper Planned To Kill!

Must have been a fluke, or something.

Hehehe... No, the Augusta Chronicle is very right wing and a friend to folks like us. My mother lives there and I enjoy reading that paper very much.

Actually, the editor probably wanted to use a headline like " Geneticly challenged idiot commits suicide"...

Thanks. Good reading. The gene pool has been upgraded. I noticed the BG was released after serving only four years of a 12-year sentence for armed robbery. More reinforcement for the "make 'em serve full terms". The Chronicle had the reporter's email address at the bottom of the page, so I dropped her (and her editor) a line of thanks. It WAS good writing, but we also need every friend we can get in the media.
