Man who flipped car after obscene gesture at LDS missionaries sentenced

Damn, don't screw with the magic underwear. I might have to get me some..... wear it like a beanie cap.


GREENCASTLE, Ind. — A man who flipped
his car after allegedly flipping off a pair of LDS missionaries was
sentenced Tuesday to one day in jail for driving while intoxicated and
ordered to pay $820 in fines and court fees.

Benjamin Brewer, 24, was arrested Aug. 18 after flipping his silver
Honda Civic near the campus of DePauw University while driving with a
blood-alcohol level of .17, more than twice the legal limit.

Brewer flipped off two missionaries for The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints seconds before his car flipped at 8:40 p.m., the
university's newspaper reports.

"We were just walking, and he looked back and flipped us off," Scott
Brezenski, one of the missionaries, told the paper. He said the driver
was carrying a cigarette in the hand he used to make the gesture.

The right side of Brewer's car hit a curb and ramped up the support of a telephone pole, according to the missionaries.

"Then the car flipped 10 to 12 feet in the air," Brezenski said, adding that the car then spun and landed about 20 feet away.

There were no injuries reported. Along with the jail sentence and fine,
Brewer will have his license suspended for 30 days, at which point he
will use a probationary license for 180 days. Police said Brewer was not
a university student.

  • I never met a rude LDS missionary in my life. They have been really nice when they came up and gave me a card. I never felt the need to reach for my side-arm while they was talking to me.

    • @nexus1961 Well, based on all the friggin' eggs and tomatoes and bread and other shit they give me all the time, I'm not certain of that. Besides, I'm pretty set up for emergencies. I don't have bunkers or weird shit like that, but I'm secure for a while. If it's the end of the world, then ain't nothing going to help.

  • @EventHorizon2012

    You have got to get better sources for your info regarding Mormons. As an inactive Mormon surrounded by active family members, friends and co-workers I have never been shunned or seen someone else who is not active or who has left the church shunned - they don't do that, they always want to keep the door open. The leaders are NOT millionairs - I have seen their homes and they are nothing more than average. The leadership is NOT corrupt and one of the standards of being a go More..

    • @Betty Jackson Bullshit- you dont pay that 10% and dont go to church all week, and dont allow them to come into your home for the study bullshit-and you are outcast--Mormons are a Clic, its not a true church, it beliees in modern day fairytales-and failure to be one with Landrue make one not one of the body of landrue

      Nope, I'm in the same boat as EventHorizon, I'm an atheist ex-mormon and my whole family is active. I can still go anywhere and everyone treats me like I'm still one of them.

  • I have nothing against Mormon missionaries or even Mormons in general, regardless of their weird beliefs..... I just don't really want one for President.

    That being said... I think this guy got just what he deserved. Glad he didn't kill anyone first.

    • @EventHorizon2012 Brother, do you really think Romney would try to pass magic underwear laws or ban coffee? We've had Catholics, Protestants presidents, not sure exactly what Obama is, but if he says he's Christian, then well ok. My point is Romney can't do anything without Congress' approval. If he even tried we all know he'd be blasted to bits for it. I could live with it.

    • @EventHorizon2012 DO you really think Romney is "Mormon" I mean, yah I know he is, -but it's of no more consequence than Obama's "Black Theology" Church w/ Rev. Wright.

      Or his Islamic Religion depending on which day you ask.

      Que no?

    • @migs1955

      It has nothing to do with him trying to Mormonize America.

      It has to do with the fact that the Mormon Church Leadership, of which he is a member, is a corrupt and highly secretive cabal of millionaires who have sworn their complete allegiance to their cult... even to the exclusion of their country.

      Mormons are told when they take their sacred oaths to the church, that they are not bound by any other oaths that they may be required to take in life.... not to the state, the courts, More..

    • @picked

      You don't know much about Mormons then. I live and interact with them on a daily basis and Mormon theology is well known in the mountain west region. But there are also a lot of what are referred to as "Jack Mormons"... people who have left the church when they were required to take bizarre oaths or shun family members who had left the church. I've heard the same stories from too many of them to believe they aren't true.

      Shunning and forcing family members to cut off all More..
