WTF - was there actually a story of an atheist killing someone Because Twinkies, or are you just saying shit to explain away a tragedy?
He's talking about the Twinkie Defense - which was not a defense and the perpetrator of the crime was Dan White who was one of them fucking catholics, anyway.

Quote:"Twinkie defense" is a derisive label for an improbable legal defense. It is not a recognized legal defense in jurisprudence, but a catchall term coined by reporters during their coverage of the trial of defendant Dan White for the murders of San Francisco city supervisor Harvey Milk and mayor George Moscone. White's defense was that he suffered diminished capacity as a result of his depression. His change in diet from healthy food to Twinkies and other sugary food was said to be a symptom of depression. Contrary to common belief, White's attorneys did not argue that the Twinkies were the cause of White's actions, but that their consumption was symptomatic of his underlying depression. White was convicted of voluntary manslaughter.
Don't listen to Ronny.
