But it is about Floriduh...

A Florida man was beaten, robbed, forced to strip naked and abandoned
on the side of a road Friday evening during a first date gone horribly
wrong, according to police.

Authorities found nude, bloodied Shaun Paul Williams, 34, walking on
the shoulder of State Road 100 in Bunnell, Fla., late Friday near a
cow pasture where Williams said he was assaulted and mugged by his
date and her two unidentified male companions earlier that evening,
according to a Flagler County Sheriff’s Office case report.

Williams told sheriff’s deputies that he met the unidentified woman at
a convenience store in Daytona Beach, Fla., two weeks ago. They struck
up a friendship and later arranged to go out on June 14, according to
the report.

The woman picked up Williams in front of the same convenience store
for their first date Friday evening. After Williams entered the
woman’s vehicle, he discovered two unidentified adult men – one of
whom the woman introduced as her brother, the report states.

She told Williams that she would take him out to dinner after she
dropped off the two unidentified men at her brother’s home. But after
several minutes on the road, the woman abruptly turned onto an unknown
side street, Williams told investigators.

The woman’s alleged brother instructed her to stop somewhere along the
side street because he had to “wait for a friend.” She then backed
into what Williams described to investigators as an “empty cow
pasture.”

Williams told investigators that he then exited the vehicle to urinate
but was allegedly bludgeoned twice in the face with a “hard metal
object.” He collapsed to the ground and held his face in his hands
while one of the unidentified men allegedly said, “Give me all your
money and all your clothes.”

Williams told police he said, “Are you serious?”
One of the unidentified men allegedly responded, “Do you see what I’ve
got pointed at you?”

Williams said he then opened his eyes and saw a semi-automatic pistol
pointed straight at his face, according to the report.

After Williams complied with their orders, the woman and her two male
companions then fled the scene in the vehicle, according to the
report.

All told, Williams claimed he was robbed of $200 in cash, a Straight
Talk pre-paid cellular phone, his Florida driver’s license, a gray
tank top, black Dickie shorts and a pair of DC sneakers.

A sheriff’s deputy who discovered a “disoriented” Williams took him to
a hospital, where he was treated for several lacerations on the right
side of his face, according to the case report.

Flagler County Sheriff’s Office investigators are working to identify
and pursue the three suspects, authorities said.



Think they're going out on a second date?

What's your point? How ineffective the police are at preventing crime?

How stupid Floridians are? He should have been sprinting across the
cow pasture instead of peeing. He'd have had plenty of time to ****
in his pants later.

Greg is just toying with a brain damaged individual. Personally,I think
he's being cruel to the poor oaf.

Back in the day, before the entire country went nutso, my parents and I
used to joke about the fact that *all* the reported UFO landings and
alien sightings seemed to take place in Florida, Mississippi, and the
swamps of Louisiana.

My mom, a native of Boston, said, "We'll believe these tales when a
flying saucer lands on the MIT campus and a little green man comes out
and says "take me to your leader."

These days, of course, whatever craziness infected the south
(referencing the "Florida trait") has spread across the nation. But I'm
not going to believe in aliens until there is a landing on the campus of
the University of Chicago.

It's been reported that un-documented aliens are occupying the White House.

What is "referencing the Florida trait"? I couldn't find any reference
to it. Prolly just one of those illusions flitting about that fat hat
rack of yours.

Most Florida residents came from one of those northern states you hold
in such high regard.
I certainly see a lot of Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey,
Connecticut people here. (mostly on the east coast) On the west coast
we mostly get mid westerners.
That is basically a I-95 vs I-75 thing


That doesn't mean the relocated Yankees are the ones reporting the
sightings! My mom moved to the east coast of Florida after my dad
died. I don't recall her ever telling me she saw an alien or a flying
saucer in her retirement neighborhood.

Guess you've never heard of Arizona, eh?

There is a pretty active UFO group in the north east too.

I am not a "alien encounter" believer but if you stare at the sky very
long you will see something you can't identify.

I think there are more sightings and reports in rural areas, simply
because there are more military operations there and the people are
not as well informed.
Military aircraft in the crowded airspaces around metropolitan areas
act in a very orderly manner.
When you get out in the boonies, they do strange stuff.
Back when RSW first opened (the Ft Myers airport) they only had a few
dozen flights a day and there might be an hour or more without a plane
in the pattern.
We could get a free air show from the military pilots who used the
runway for practice "touch and goes" and other tricks.
They also did low passes at high speed over the beach areas. Sonic
booms were regular occurrences as they cranked it up to get back to
Pensacola, Eglin or Tyndall by dinner time.
Now that the RSW pattern is full most of the day, we don't see them
much anymore.

My dad was stationed at MacDill AFB in Tampa for two years when I was a kid. I later worked for two
years at Cape Canaveral. Even later, I got by BS at the University of Tampa. I've known a lot of
Floridians - home grown and imports. Even married one whose parents and grand-parents did their
growing up on Merritt Island. That is some heavy cracker country over there.

I don't know where jps and Harry get there ideas about Floridians. I'd much rather be around a bunch
of them then most of the Seattleites I've met. There are a great many folks in southern Maryland
still fighting the Civil War - as Confederates.
