Wal*Mart B*tch Slap!

Ok, so we've all been there. Walking through Wal*Mart, minding our own business, when the incessant screaming of a child is enough to make us lose our minds. I think we've all thought to ourselves, "That kid needs SMACKED!"

Well, this dude in Georgia did just that. To someone ELSE'S kid.

Here's the story:

STONE MOUNTAIN, Ga. (AP) _ Police say a 61-year-old man annoyed with a crying 2-year-old girl at a Walmart slapped the child several times after warning the toddler's mother to keep her quiet. A police report says after the stranger hit the girl at least four times, he said: ``See, I told you I would shut her up.''
Roger Stephens of Stone Mountain is charged with felony cruelty to children. It was unclear if hehad an attorney and a telephone call to his home Wednesday was unanswered. Authorities say the girl and her mother were shopping Monday when the toddler began crying. The police report says Stephens approached the mother and said, ``If you don't shut that baby up, I
will shut her up for you.'' Authorities say after Stephens slapped the girl, she began
screaming.

Now, this dude looks like a scary, mean old man. And he hit the kid like, four times. So that's innappropriate. BUT- wouldn't it be kinda funny if it was like a nice, old grandpa-looking guy, who swatted the kid on the butt? Seriously. I'd laugh.
