The Meanest Man On The Planet

Holy cow!

You know those times when you see a photo of a guy who looks really mean, only to find out that he is the kindest soul in in the world? This is not one of those times. That guy up there is as mean as he looks. If the Devil, a black rhino, Russell Crowe, a wolverine, and Kirstie Alley’s appetite were to reproduce, they would make this guy.

Sonya Mathews, the mother of the 2-year-old child, told police that both were walking in the aisles of the Rockbridge Road store when Roger Stephens, 61, approached and said “if you don’t shut that baby up, I will shut her up for you,” according to a police report. A few moments later, in another aisle, Stephens grabbed the 2-year-old and slapped her across the face four or five times, according to the report. Stephens then told Mathews, “See, I told you I would shut her up,” according to the report.

Look at him! This guy is to kindness as Truman Capote’s voice is to baritone. The Grim Reaper himself just tweeted: “Tht guy is a mean mthrfkr!”

A bystander held Stephens until store security came to assist, according to a WSB-TV report.

What? A bystander?! The meanest looking man on earth just slapped a 2-year-old kid in the face 5 times and he let himself be “held” by a bystander. Did this bystander happen to be a reticulated python? Did King Leonidas happen to be at Wal-Mart that day? Was this bystander “The Human Whisperer”?! WTF!

Either way, Roger Stephens, you’re a piece of shit. And Mr. Bystander, who or whatever you are, well done.
