A gas station in north Fayette was robbed at gunpoint this morning, sheriff’s deputies said.

It turns out the same suspect robbed a convenience store in Eatonton at 3:20 a.m., said Sheriff's Det. Joshua Shelton.

The incident occurred at the BP gas station at the intersection of Ga. highways 138 and 314 just after 8 a.m., as a white male allegedly armed with a handgun demanded cash and was given an undetermined amount of money, deputies said.

The suspect left the area in a late 90s to early 2000 burgundy Ford F150 side step pickup with an extended cab, police said. He was wearing a dark baseball cap, a dark blue Braves T-shirt and gray shorts, police said.

A reward is being offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the suspect, deputies said.

Anyone who recognizes the suspect is asked to contact Det. Joshua Shelton at the Fayette County Sheriff’s Office at 770-716-4777.

Your beliefs run from loving bar dudes to boogers!
I knew a "Grace" once, a fine lady. She had no virtue however.

You sign off with "Grace being a virtue?"

I sign off with "GRACE is a VIRTUE" because it is. Often having grace is overlooked, or being a graceful person, or walking with grace. Too often grace is a virtue that is overlooked. Dealing with life and the crap that life throws at you in a graceful way is often unnoticed, and that's sad. That's why I sign off that way, not that I owe you any kind of explanation.

We all have our bad nights, did the word "butt" offend?
I am not my father, nor do, nor will i ever claim to meet his standards. My sense of humor comes from two different gene patterns...that of boogers and poop, and that of satire and conflict..the latter being my fathers side, not to imply my mothers being the other. Take me for who i am and am not. Take my father for the same, but please, never allow me to be placed among the bonk category. Thank you, and i wish you good nite.


Submitted by Bonkers on Fri, 08/22/2008 - 3:50am.

Why not in my category?
Are you smarter, maybe?
Your Father has higher or lower standards?
You have a nasty mouth with the Genes!
I'll take you in the way you sound!

The whole thing took abut 30 seconds. I predict this genius will serve about a year for each second it took him to rob the place.

This photo appears to me to be a doctored one. It shows the same individual as he walked into the store. It wasn't 3 people.

I had a whole harangue that I thought was funny, all about the "self-evident" connection between robbery and race, and then I thought to check and see whether anyone else was thinking what I was thinking.

They were.

This guy will be caught, though, because, as we all know, white boys don't all look alike.

Watch the video. A black man enters right after the Braves guy. Maybe he's a co-conspirator!

Triplet robbery. Can't be too many sets of triplets in their 20's in fayette and surrounding can there? I wonder were there 3 guns used too?
Lolololol. I bet he is a golfer too.

I hope to jeebus you all don't think that's 3 different boys.

You mean it is a camera trick? How could they do that to us? I figured the triplets would be easy to find.
Speaking clear Inglish is hopeless anymore!

Boys? Boys? They look like men to me---all of them. I'll bet they had good manners about the robbery?

What about the word "thug" makes you think I mean 3? Or even plural for that matter?

No, there are three of them, and they all play golf.
Search your local country club. You'll find the purple traitors there.

Am I to understand that these three men were not from Clayton County?
They look almost white to me.
What rainbow coalition was the one who robbed the BP at 138?

Just remember North belle is packin!

Why do you insist on mentioning your "version" of my name in EVERY EFFING POST?!?!?! Bugger Off, do I have to say it every time I log in??? I'm going to start returning the favor, Boners. Watch my smoke. You have provoked, picked, antagonized, insulted, insinuated, "observed," "researched," and proved your obnoxiousness more than once. Do us all a favor and GROW UP, TAKE YOUR MEDS without being told to! I seriously cannot WAIT for the day when I can actually MAKE it to one of the coffees! Then, all the other bloggers I meet can tell you a few things about me. I'm quiet when I meet people, I actually LOOK LIKE MY EFFING PICTURE!!! Whaddayaknow?!?! Just forget you know me! I've asked this of you MANY times, and you just can't do it, can you??? Just leave me alone! Stop referring to me, stop referring to my comments, just leave me out of your vile rants and obnoxious inuendo! YOU DON'T KNOW ME! If you continue to pick at me, I will have NO CHOICE but to take action. Do you understand now?? Or were my words too big for you? Let me make it VERY clear: LEAVE ME ALONE, STOP TALKING ABOUT ME, and PLEASE, for the love of pizza, STOP REFERRING TO ME!

If you don't stop calling me vile names every time I log in, I'm going to take action, understand?
I'll look for your smoke!
The coffees are dead, I think. You wouldn't have made one anyway.
I am rather quiet when I meet people, and even when I don't, I'm even quieter, since I have no one to be loud with!
I'm not the one who first said you didn't post a real picture! Whocares about that anyway.
I don't know how to write without referring by obnoxious inuendo to something!
You disturb my learned thoughts to others with your defensive attitude!
All someone said was that you were packin! You went totally awesomely ballastic!

I have attempted to calm more than one person down about Bonkers and have, for some reason, failed miserably. It isn't worth getting upset about. He is the Citizen Instigator. The Blogger Provoker. He probably wears a cape. Few times has he posted without it being argumentative in one way or another. He'd probably tell you that the moon landing was a hoax, just because it gets under people's skin.
Clearly he sees a bullseye painted on your forehead which is why you're getting Bonked more than most. (That came out wrong...) For the sake of your blood pressure, just ignore it and perhaps it'll go away. It isn't worth it. It would actually almost be funny if it weren't so sad.

And another thing - best not to tell him you actually look like your picture. Best to claim you look more like Kathy Bates on a bad hair day after a run-in with a maddened hornet's nest. And a hairy wart or two.

I realize what Boners is, I just can't stand people who choose to be obnoxious. There are people who were born that way, and then there are people who choose the behave that way. The ones who were born that way, well, that sucks for them, but people like Boners who choose to behave that way, well, I have no patience for them. I have too much other crap to deal with to have any extra patience for that vile human being. Perhaps if he would leave me alone, I might have something to say. If I could write on here without his constant badgering, then I would, but I can't, so I only speak up when I really feel froggy. He's trying to run me off, and I won't do it, at least not this time. He was successful one time, a long time ago, as a fellow named Dollar, but not this time. I'm not going to leave this time. I like too many other folks on this site to leave again.

Does your name apply here, or have you actually clicked on my Blogs (not comments) and read many?
How can you say I'm "argumentative" and you are not?

They had to rob BP to pay the greens fee. Thank you for being one of the intelligent ones to see this truth. Golfers ALWAYS steal ; )
Dang Fayetette county golfers. I bet they birdied 18 didn't they?
