Seriously?????

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — A West Virginia man accused of passing gas and fanning it toward a police officer no longer faces a battery charge.

The Kanawha County prosecutor's office requested that the charge be dropped against 34-year-old Jose Cruz.

According to a criminal complaint, Cruz passed gas and made a fanning motion toward patrolman T.E. Parsons after being taken to the police station for a breathalyzer test. Cruz denies fanning the gas and says his request to use a restroom when first arriving at the station was denied.

An assistant says Magistrate Jack Pauley signed a motion to dismiss the charge Thursday.

Cruz, who was arrested Tuesday, still faces driving under the influence and other charges.

Stand Up For Chuck

Halfrican American Part 1

The cup is half empty or the cup is half full? Depends on how you look at it. The man is half white or the man is half black? Depends on how you look at it? History is going to be made in November. We will have the first female vice president or we will have the first half black or half white president. I am not sure why Barack Hussein Obama is always referred to as the first African American president candidate. Someone please teach me!! He was abandoned by his African American father and raised by his Caucasian mother. Seems to me he would be more white than black but I guess I am naive or something.
