February 1

There were "only" three murders last week: Temitayo Olowolayemo (who identical twin brother was shot in the face and survived), Augustus Venable and James Wright. (The Sun reported two of the three, earning a reporting score of 66% -- a solid "D").

Four stabbings in the Blotter... a 35-year-old man was stabbed by two guys on bikes trying to rob him. A 20-year-old man stabbed his "girlfriend" in the stomach with a fork. A 20-year-old woman was stabbed in the leg and face with a fountain pen. And a guy named "Bo," still at large, stabbed a man in the back with a steak knife on Guilford Ave.

bellHoCo popos have a name and face for the shooter whose stray bullet struck a four-year-old. They're now ISO Tion Jamaar Bell, 18 (left).

Way to go, honor system: Maurice, the short, pudgy rapist turned himself in.

Police suspect that the murderers of Neil Rivers of Essex may be the same people who have been stealing scooters, bikes and ATVs recently.

Vernon Evans sent a DVD to the governor.

BC answers the question on everybody's lips: who would elect that Dwyer guy? Why, neo-Nazis, of course! Turns out Don Dwyer's District has more reported hate crimes than the whole state of Mississippi. The Klan in AAC is so active that six years ago they tried to adopt a stretch of highway (the county abolished the program rather than take the "Invincible Realm" to court), and last month a neo-Nazi group ran recruiting ads on local television and distributed recruiting packets to residents' driveways.

Van Smith digs the dirt on upheaval at the Liquor Board.

Watch out, cyber-hos... the Baltimore County police are wise to your euphemisms.

This raises the interesting question -- who's the bigger psychotic, Don Dwyer or Trent Lott? Perhaps we could send them both to some Swiss psychiatric institute for a year of intensive study and wait to get a definitive answer. Mississippi's racists and Anne Arundel's homophobes could elect interim leaders while they're gone.

You must not have gotten that e-mail from God. All that New Testament cheek-turning neighbor-loving huggy crap is out like Ugg boots. Time to make with the smiting and stoning.

And to be fair, (a) Vernon Evans did his killing in Baltimore County, not city; (b) the short, pudgy rapist did his raping in D.C. and lived in Baltimore County; and (c) the cyber-hos were in Anne Arundel County, not Baltimore City.

Personally, my tribe has always been old testament. I'm not entirely without sin, but I'm quite ready to cast some stones hereabouts. Especially hereabouts.
