    We've all heard of suicide by cop, how about suicide by "dumb"?


    Nearly two years after a neo-Nazi leader was gunned down at point-blank while sleeping on his sofa, his son -- who was 10 at the time of the killing -- is going on trial for murder.

    Prosecutors want a judge hearing opening statements Tuesday to rule after the proceedings that the boy, now 12, murdered Jeff Hall, an out-of-work plumber who as regional leader of the National Socialist Movement headed rallies at a synagogue and a day labor site.

    The boy told police he pulled a .357-Magnum from a closet and aimed it at Hall's ear and pulled the trigger before running upstairs and hiding the weapon, according to court papers.

    "He decided, as he put it, it was time to end the father-son thing," said Michael Soccio, chief deputy district attorney. "This child started at five years old being expelled from school for violence. ... His violence started way before his dad ever joined any Nazi party."

    Police in the southeast Missouri town of Cape Girardeau say two men accused of driving into a group of joggers likened it to playing a video game.

    Three joggers suffered bumps and bruises Sunday morning when they were struck by a car. Police believe it was intentional

    The suspects, 19-year-old Vincent Anderson of Little Rock, Ark., and 27-year-old Marcus Jones of Cotton Plant, Ark., are both jailed. Police say Anderson was driving a 1994 Ford Thunderbird that was reported stolen moments before the joggers were struck.

    The Southeast Missourian (http://bit.ly/S9REzH ) reports that according to a probable cause statement, cellphone videos found with the suspects indicated they thought the experience was "fun" and likened it to the video game "Grand Theft Auto."

    I would venture a guess this woman spent her formative years below the Mason Dixon line. :)


    An Orange County woman has asked the city of Irvine to erect a sign honoring hundreds of truck crash victims -- who were fish.

    About 1,600 pounds of saltwater bass died on Oct. 11 when a container truck hauling them to market got into a three-way crash.

    Dina Kourda, a local volunteer with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, wrote the head of street maintenance requesting a sign at the intersection to honor the fish.

    Kourda's letter notes that while roadside memorials traditionally honor human beings, she hopes an exception will be made to remind drivers that all animals -- in her words -- "value their lives and feel pain."

    And why would you say that? Are you secretly writing under a Rancid Crabtree alias?

    No, I just know how much they love their fish in the south.

    We love to kill and eat them not cry over them. But that said, its a shame to waste all those fish.

    We would say Grace over them, along with the hushpuppies, grits and baked beans.
