People not picking up the picture story as quickly as you'd think (a point I explained isn't so improbable as you might think), the GAFollowers article being deleted without explanation (which could be because they realised that this opened them up to a libel suit because they claimed it was a positive identification, something the Daily Boulder avoids by pointing out that it's not conclusive), and now a crypto-racist jab (complete with some... antiquated ebonics) at Huggy Bear about black people thinking all white people look alike? Seriously? I'm so white that taking regular hot baths is the only thing keeping my skin from a deathly pallour and even I think the guy in the mugshot and the guy in the Klan photo look alike. Once again, even arewethereyet at least tried to point out some differences, and even then, she conceded that the differing angles could just be screwing up the perspective. This is like the scene from The Newsroom where Jeff Daniels is debating Arizona's immigration policy and the people he got are so stupid that he has to argue their side for them because they're too fucking dumb to do it themselves.
At least when Huggy Bear decides to defend some idea that's totally fucking stupid, he at least tries to actually defend them. He may defend them in some very stupid ways, and his sources may be easy to cast into doubt, but he's at least not this fucking lazy.
Jesus fuck.
Math
State of Georgia 10.5 million
Men Age 55-60 aprox 4%.
400,000 - easily 1/2 wear glasses
Of 200,000 probably at least 1/2 have greying facial hsir.
0f 100,000 at least 20 % have a goatee of some sort.
So your odds of any given white guy with glasses and a goatee (your sole points of data) is about 20,000.to 1.
I'll put a 100 bucks on it. Want to give me odds?
Put your money where your mouth is.
