O.K .The desrciption of the suspect said he is a white male, now all you people that complained about them putting black male in the news should be happy.
I agree. I do not even live in Barnesville (I live in Thomaston now) and this is by far my favorite newspaper and my favorite on-line news source. I wish the Thomaston Times would model themselves after you guys!!
why does everything have to be about white and black all the time well 1st of all we know aint no black person that damn stupid to something like this in a small town. and i hope aint no white person that stupid unless you are out of state..
I agree, shouldn't be a black or white thing, although stupidity is both black and white as the last robbery attempt in B'ville happened to be a black man at FNB.
I posted the comment at the bottom in another thread, but feel as though it may apply here. This is the perfect opportunity to seperate ourselves based on something besides race. How about instead of black/white...we go with non-bank robbers/bank robbers!!!! Now isn't that a novel idea!!!
My comment from another thread:
About the dreads comments...i make a comment about it pretty regularly. But most of the time it is complete sarcasm. I am usually pointing out that some new criminal (and there seem to be an abundance of those in Barnesville) DOES NOT have dreads. What a horrible stereotype. For the record, I'm white. I think that any time a criminal is caught and the opportunity to get any drugs off the street comes along, it is a good thing! Keep in mind that drugs know no racial boundaries! People of all races and walks of life are struggling all across America with addiction...whether it be with crack, meth, pills, alcohol, etc. Instead of seeing black and white, maybe everyone should start seeing things in other colors...for instance, drug user/non-drug user, good wholesome person/criminal. Ban together or separate yourselves based on something a little more solid people. come on, its way past time for you to evolve!!
lol. Someone told me Robbie was held back. They say several others at the bank held Robbie down till it was over. They say Robbie was hollering at the guy saying "come get you some punk". The other bankers didnt want bloodshed and had to restrain Robbie. Somebody else told me Robbie ripped his shirt off like Hulk Hogan and just started flexing at the guy. lol. omg! I would have loved to have been there!
Walter and Drew blew the misfits away on this and the Milner murder. I was on I-75 when the chase went north and Walter was right behind them. Great work!
Thank you for the compliment 'Vikings suck.' We pride ourselves in trying to get as up-to-the-minute news for Barnesville and Lamar County. We may not be a huge budget network affiliate or Hearst Publication but we do what we can, when we can.
While Walter was speeding down 75 I was back at the bank interviewing patrons, employees, and getting a few details from the police on the scene.
White people committ more crime but good old lamar county

I"m a black man and I'm sick and tired of the black/white b.s. While blacks and whites bicker about frigging nonsense, foreigners come here and get loans to start businesses with no questions asked. Yet, idiot blacks and idiot whites always complain about each other. You morons better wake up and smell the coffee. Soon enough, we'll all be slaves to newly arrivals "foreigner"
Oh my goodness what is going on in Lamar County? It is like people are just going crazy and putting so many innocent lives in danger. I am almost ready to pack up and move out of this county before my family becomes a victim again to this crazy bulls***! Something has to be done.
This town is racist it sad every crime have to be compare
to black person. I feel that a person shouldnt be judge
according to his color but accord to his action if you white and committ a crime you wring and if you black and commit a crime you wrong. both race committ crime but the but the talk about the
black people crime more than the white people.............
Wasn't It a White man who Robbery several bank
I am sick of you people try to make black people
look like criminal all black people don't committ
crime. If the truth be told I sure there more
white crime than black crime.........
the cops in Lamar county do not play or what? commit a crime & you are in the back of a squad car in about two minutes. dangitman, look out scumbags. i hope this does not cause a mass exodus of criminals to P.C. our cops are not as efficient. that why we all own firearms. seems to work just about as well...
I have read several comment on this web site and I am
sick in tried of the black and white issue and people
try to blame other people for there poor choice and life
and trying to blame president obama for the recession and the
crime. We where in a recession under President George Bush
President Obama just took office in January. Lamar County is racist town. and God is not please with all this mess
What part of the Bible talks about foreigners coming to B'ville? I missed that part in Sunday school and church- maybe the Baptists and the Methodists skipped that part....
Just who is your God? You cant possibly know God and have actually voted for Obammy!Recession is sweet to what Obammy is gonna lead us to. Depression is our future. Obammy is driving the economy to Hell (in just 2 months)and he and his followers will also inherit a place in Hell with that!
No, the bible didn't say a foreigners was coming to Barnesville. This really show me how low your IQ is. only 36% of african american vote for obama, "You People" help put him in the White House.
you're dang right I voted for Obama. AND I also consider myself a christian. Sure, he is not...but just because other political leaders have claimed to be christian does not mean they have not been scandalous and made terrible immoral decisions! werd! haha.
Ghostfoviking you dont no what you talk about. You try to sound smart that you no everything but you not. The new PRESIDENT is a great man and will leads us to bee a better county. If more people were like him we would bee ok but its racist people like you that put him and everione down cause you think you are rite Ilive this everiday you dont

President is not a great man. Pay or War? He don't pay for economy, Why? If he want a gas or drug? Pay or War? Why, why and why??? Job cut and Budget cut, Why?
Lucifer knows the Book....wow! you quote a verse to me. Yet, you know not God. Your prayers at night are for the cash 3 #'s. You probably put your government-paid for groceries in your Navigator and drive back to your roach infested lean-to....your soul will be laid to waste to he you put your feeble faith in.
I'm impressed!
Good job Herald-Gazette.
