- HANDSY N.C. STATE SENATOR SHOOTS HOME INTRUDER: This is why we need military-grade assault weapons, people: “TABOR CITY, N.C. — A sheriff says North Carolina’s longest serving state lawmaker has shot one of two intruders who kicked in the front door of his home.” This is a real win-win, here, because the senator, R.C. Soles, was able to protect himself with his gun, the news of which has introduced the rest of us to “R.C. Soles,” who allegedly has a penchant for teenage cock. [AP]

The SBI is investigating a man’s claim that Soles tried to fondle him more than a decade ago when the man was a teenager.
Tried to fondle him? What, did the kid say no and Soles backed off? I smell Democrat.
DEMONcrat indeed!
Here’s more info: http://www.wwaytv3.com/news_tags/sen_rc_soles_0
Hmmm. Well, seeing as how the accuser stated publicly that he lied about said cock sucking, I am somewhat uninspired to make the usual snarky observations about that.
On the other hand, Google, the gift that keeps on giving, does shed some additional light on the esteemed legislator, who is in the habit of assaulting his law clients:
“Mr. Soles has a law practice in the Columbus County town of Tabor City, and has recently had a number of run-ins with clients and ex-clients.
Since our first report aired last Thursday, Mr. Soles has pepper sprayed a client who showed up at his house. ”
Truth: Always funnier than fiction.
Darnit, I was really hoping for a Repug wearing a flag pin. Although he does have a swarmy ‘let me fondle your naughty-bits little boy’ look about him.

Man certainly knows how to handle long hard things.
My faux NYPost Headline: Teen Peen Touching Sen Wounds Front Door Intruder
His GUN went off after his intruder entered. This is news?
Must be one hella expensive attorney if clients are showing up at his home for some free fondling.
That AP story is oddly incomplete. From a variety of news sources aggregated on Democratic Senator “Ass” Soles’ Wiki page, we learn that:
Sources tell WWAY Soles shot 22-year-old Thomas Kyle Blackburn in the leg when Blackburn and BJ Wright allegedly tried to break down the senator’s door around 5:20 Sunday afternoon. Both Blackburn and Wright, we are told, are legal clients of the senator.
BJ Wright, as we reported a couple of weeks ago, received $8,000 from Senator Soles while serving time in prison, according to prison documents we obtained.
The 74-year-old lawyer has never been married [and is a] former board member of the Columbus County Community Foundation and Opera Company of North Carolina.
BJ Wright? Apparently so, as he didn’t get his ass shot.
[re=393818]ShamWow[/re]: Um, aren’t all southern dems actually republicans anyway, unless they are, ahem, of color?
It’s all a misunderstanding. Soles thought the kid had a gun in his pocket. Turns out, the kid was just glad to see him.
[re=393815]Bearbloke[/re]: Gauntlet clean-up, Aisle 3.
[re=393825]Extemporanus[/re]: I smell a rat, perhaps a clean old rat with a little Old Spice dabbed behind each ear.
He probably Twitters. Also.
“Calls to a number listed for Soles’ Tabor City home went unanswered. Soles has been in the General Assembly for 40 years.”
Well duh! How’s he gonna answer his home phone if he’s always at the General Assembly?
Oh, please, its the old “teenage cock shaking down state senator or else they go public with the man-boy love thing” story, oldest story in the book.
Good luck in getting a pizza delivered to his home after this incident.
shot him with his firearm….right? RIGHT?
Well, who DOESN”T have a pencahnt for….
Oh, wait. Nevermind.
[re=393819]ManchuCandidate[/re]: faux NYPost Headline
There’s got to be a better one than that, somewhere in there, but I can’t winkle it out. “Old Soles Drills Proles?”
My fave all-time real one after John Hinckley’s psychiatric exam: “Shrinks Think Hinck Stinks”
Is R.C. Soles related to P.J. Soles?
Cause I would SO let her fondle me.
HES A TRUE PATRIOT , MAY GOD PROTECT HIM
[re=393861]El Pinche[/re]:
WAIT HE’S A DEMONCRAT, NEVERMIND JESUS.
[re=393844]Tommmcatt[/re]: “fire” arm, as in some STDs do cause a burning sensation.
When guns are outlawed, only legislators will have guns!
So, what everyone is saying, this is not the first time Mr. Soles has shot a load in someones face?
[re=393863]El Pinche[/re]: Welcome back to the right side. I was worried you let your love of guns overcome your hatred of socialist.
Cue LaPierre.
Sen. Soles (stage whisper): “R. C. dead people.”
[re=393845]user-of-owls[/re]: I kinda liked “Headless Body in Topless Bar” myself. Although nothing really beats FORD TO CITY: DROP DEAD (Daily News, 1975)
CLOSE BUT NO CIGAR (Senate fails to convict Clinton; News, 1999)
France and Germany not joining US invasion of Iraq: AXIS OF WEASEL (Post, 2003)
Eliot Spitzer sex scandal: HO NO! (NY Post)
North Carolina is having a banner year in politics.
If you didn’t hear about it, the state just went through a completely embarrassing corruption scandal involing the former governor, the former governor’s wife, several top higher-education officials, and a bunch of others.
Now: R.C. Soles shooting people breaking into his home, and a foolin’ around with them there male teen guys!
[re=393924]Katydid[/re]: Oh yes, keepers all! Do they outsource these things or have some in-house savant come up with them?
[re=393945]thefrontpage[/re]: And yet still eclipsed by your sparkin’ neighbor to the south. It’s like being a really good movie the year Gone With The Wind came out.
He’s funny…I read about him. He bought this kid a house, and then neighbors burned it down this year. Oh man. Dems with gay adultery, Reps with Straight, everythings crazy!
[re=393815]Bearbloke[/re]: Well that’s your first mistake – WWAY is the biggest joke of a news source in southeastern NC. You should pretty much never count on getting accurate info from them. I’d check here if you want the story http://www.starnewsonline.com/article/20090824/ARTICLES/908249991/1155?Title=Attorney-Soles-fired-in-self-defense. If you scroll down, they have links to the earlier stories on him too – both the shooting and this kid’s claims.
As for Soles – this kid claimed that Soles fondled years ago, then recanted. The original claim was in a TV interview that they waited a year to air, and the kid now says that he was stoned when he did that interview, and he was never diddled. And apparently Soles’s home was broken into, which is what that shooting is about.
However, this isn’t the first time Soles has been investigated… And I’ll just leave it at that.
Oh and as someone who’s met Soles more than a few times… it wouldn’t surprise me if he had, it wouldn’t surprise me if he hadn’t. He’s not someone I’d point out of a crowd as definitely a kiddy diddler, but he’s also not someone I would think could just never do something like that. He’s basically made a career of doing nothing – nothing controversial, nothing that angers people, nothing.
[re=393924]Katydid[/re]: Of course, there was the immortal “You’ve Got Jail!” (NY Post, 1998, on the AOL killer). I believe that was the origin of that obscene cliche.
[re=393962]user-of-owls[/re]: The NYTimes might not have one (though there might be one out there now), but London’s trash heap of record does: The Daily Mail-o-matic.
[re=393980]Redhead[/re]: “He’s basically made a career of doing nothing – nothing controversial…”
I’m from the Alabama part of Pennsylvania and up there going to the opera would be real controversial. Between that and the “never been married” part, my Pappy would declare, “Light in the loafers,” and be amazed that THEY were allowed to have shotguns.
[re=393980]Redhead[/re]: “He’s basically made a career of doing nothing – nothing controversial, nothing that angers people, nothing.”
Well, except shooting someone that it sounds more and more likely wasn’t and intruder, especially if it’s true that he shot the guy while the guy was leaving.
And, BTW, no one has to back off because he’s a Democrat. I don’t know about the rest of you, but a Democratic state senator in North Carolina would probably be a conservative Republican up here in Michigan. Remember, political affiliations don’t always translate from one region to another. lol
So… OBVIOUSLY just a misunderstanding.
SOLES: I’ll get you off if you go to prison.
BJ: Wait. what?
SOLES: BJ? ok?
BJ: You’ll git me off?
SOLES: Oh yes, yes.
etc..etc…
Also Wilmington is about the most charming town in the Old North State. Too.
[re=394079]LoweredPeninsula[/re]: haha, sorry I meant he’s done pretty much nothing controversial before the last couple months. (And I was really kinda referring more to his time in the legislature.) Most politicians piss some people off, change their stance on policies when they think the popular opinion is changing, do something that will basically give them or a family member special benefits (like the former governor and his wife at NC State), they have a mistress or they just have a special talking point that they campaign for, during the election and after. Think about your local politicians – think about what you hear about them, what you see of them on TV or in the paper.
I don’t think I’ve ever even seen a campaign ad for Soles. Even at the functions that he’s attended as a politician, he’s not giving sound bites, shaking hands, or basically acting like a politician. He’s not schmoozing or greeting mayors, commissioners, etc. He just sort of blends into the background, even at these kinds of events, where every other politician is trying to schmooze and greet and get his name and face out there, make himself look good. I’d even say it’s to the point that (again, until the last couple of months) he TRIED to not stand out, if that makes sense. That’s part of why I said it wouldn’t surprise me if this were true – politicians usually strike me as the have-to-be-the-center-of-attention types, so actually TRYING not to draw attention is out of character, and makes me wonder why he would try NOT to draw attention.
To be fair, I never got a leery, threatening vibe from him. Then again, I am a girl.
[re=394118]Carrie_Okie[/re]: “Also Wilmington is about the most charming town in the Old North State. Too.”
That better not be sarcasm buddy! We may have given birth to One Tree Hill, Dawson’s Creek and other IQ-lowering disgustingness, but we also lead the mocking of said TV shows. Let me tell you – mocking the “actors” from those shows directly to their faces is OH so satisfying.
[re=394210]Redhead[/re]: Nope. I have had great times in Wilmy. Indochine is the best restaurant EVARRR. I even enjoy the USS NC BB. In short, I am in the tank for Wilmington.
http://www.wwaytv3.com/clients_senator_soles_questioned_fbi_regarding_prostitution_and_molestation/08/2009 :
A year ago, another one of Sen. Soles’s clients named Stacey Scott talked to us about his testimony before the FBI. His recollection of the line of questioning was very similar.
“The FBI is investigating him, as far as I know, for embezzlement, arson, child molestation,” Scott said. “He (Soles) did try to molest me when I was 15 years old, and I have not told the feds that. He tried to grab by my genitalia and I backed off and I said, ‘You know my dad would kill you.’ He said, ‘Please don’t tell nobody,’ and he gave me a thousand dollars.”
For those just tuning in, this link from the second comment is a must-see:
http://www.wwaytv3.com/news_tags/sen_rc_soles_0
In a nutshell: a well-off criminal lawyer with a long history of handing large chunks of cash — and the occasional house and Corvette — to his young male clients, and frequently calling the police on them for trespassing.
In a smaller nutshell: Gay gay gay rich lawyer/senator successfully extorted by his underage male lust objects.
[re=394225]Carrie_Okie[/re]: Personally, I’m partial to Nikki’s, but Indochine isn’t bad either. Heh, I like my town a bit, if you can’t tell.
And hey, at least we’re entertaining! We gave you not only Soles, but Wright as well (who misappropriated funds and then claimed that everyone was doing it and he only got busted cause he’s black).
[re=394231]CthuNHu[/re]: Again, I’m sorry but WWAY is just a joke. They screw up pretty much every story they run and I don’t know anyone in this area that takes them seriously.
Here are some links to info about the kid that said Soles diddled him and recanted, and the shooting.
