Billy the Kid Faces The Law... Again

Jason Raddin writes "MSNBC.com has an interesting story about a new showdown in the Old West. It seems as if Billy the Kid can still cause problems for the law-men of New Mexico, even as he rests in his grave. Several small New Mexico towns claim to possess the "true" grave of Billy the Kid (a.k.a. William H. Bonney, Henry McCarty, Kid Antrim). Two sheriffs in Capitan, New Mexico have proposed that this mystery be solved using modern DNA testing. The proposal was made in June to exhume the remains of Bonney's mother and the two reported graves of Bonney. This has spurred a hot legal debate raising an interesting question: which is more important, tourist dollars or the truth?"

    NAACP honors GNAA

    Charlotte, NC (Reuters AP)
    November 12, 2003

    At an exclusive fried chicken and watermelon gala held this past Monday at North Carolina State University's Diversity Center, the Reverend Jessie Jackson delivered a powerful oration on behalf of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), honoring the accomplishments and spirit of equality embodied by the Gay Nigger Association of America (GNAA).

    "The GNAA has paved the way for young gay men of color to express their homosexuality in a mutually supportive, nurturing atmosphere," said Jackson. "What started on Slashdot has truly become a national phenomenon, that transcends prior preconceptions of what it means to be a horny young nigger-faggot looking for a tender piece of that glistening, succulent ebony asshole."

    Also in attendance were CmdrTaco and Hemos, in full master/bitch BDSM leather-wear. Jackson ended his speech with the admonition that all in attendance masturbate furiously. They then proceeded to do so for a good half hour.

    adequately greased Yoda doll shoved up his ass? I mean, you need the proper amount of grease, or it really could be fatal. Just ask Stephen King. He died in his home in Maine, found with a huge ungreased Yoda doll sticking out of his ass. Just a note, kids. (Side note: Stephen King also developed BSD code with a Yoda doll shoved up his ass. No wonder he died)

    I was going to quit slashdot once but then I just decided to troll it instead.

    Eventually you'll get sick of reading the lame articles and karma whoring comments.

    Some people complain the trolls are repetitive? The god damn karma whore bullshit that gets repeated every article is the repetitive shit. I can just look at the topic of a story and already predict what all the plus +5 comments are going to say.

    It's gay man. The best way to really enjoy slashdot is to troll it man! Slashdot is too lame to take seriously. Get you troll on dude.

    Which is more important, tourist dollars or the truth?


    Huh? "Dollar or the truth?"
    You ask that question in a country where you can get President because "The counting of the votes that are of questionable legality does, in my view, threaten irreparable harm to the petitioner (Bush), and to the country by casting a cloud upon what he claims to be the legitimacy of this election."
    Maybe you should pay atteniton to what is going on on important levels.
