Former U.S. Senate candidate Alvin Greene – the “accidental candidate” whose bizarre 2010 campaign against U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint made national headlines – has been arrested in Horry County, S.C. on a trespassing charge.
Details are sketchy at this point, but Greene was arrested on Friday for a first offense charge of “trespassing on another’s land without permission.”
An incident report obtained by FITS indicates Greene was “walking around on posted property disoriented.” Emergency medical services were called and Greene was placed under arrest.
Greene’s bail was set at $262, however the Manning, S.C. native remains incarcerated at the J. Reuben Long Detention Center in Conway, S.C. No clue yet whether Greene was unable to make bail – or if he is remaining behind bars by choice (something we could easily see him doing).
What do we know? The 35-year-old soldier-turned-politician has ditched his traditional buzz cut for a new look.
See for yourself …
Greene captured the attention of the nation in 2010 when he won the Democratic nomination for the U.S. Senate over former S.C. Rep. Vic Rawl – despite not spending any money or hosting any campaign events. While rumors swirled about Greene being a possible GOP plant, he repeatedly demonstrated less-than-sane behavior – including howling and moaning at reporters and a suggesting that South Carolina create jobs by mass-producing action figures in his likeness.
Yeah …
After receiving 361,471 votes against DeMint in 2010, Greene has seen his political career go downhill. In February 2011, for example, he finished dead last in a four-way Democratic special primary for S.C. House District 64 – receiving only 37 votes.
Greene has been in trouble with the law before. In fact during his U.S. Senate bid he was indicted on charges of “disseminating, procuring or promoting obscenity” for allegedly showed pornographic material to a female college student in November 2009.

And there he will sit because the powers that be don’t want a part Deux. Another violation of the civil rights of an American. Great. Fracking libitards.
Where are Sharpton and Jackson?

I hope no horses were hurt during the crime.
First it was Oprah in the Swiss boutique, then it was America’s response to Obamacare, now this! Where will all the racism end!! Clearly Alvin had his sites on public office, but which one? Who is responsible for using this cowardly tactic to derail the competition? Somebody call the CSOL! This man has a case!
lol….dude…so funny
You forgot a reference to Lonnie Randolph too…but you still get an “A”.

Apparently he got tired of people demeaning him with, “You couldn’t even get arrested now, Alvin!”

Poor Alvin. He ain’t right…
I was by his house a couple of weeks ago and saw someone walking up the lane from US 521 brushing his teeth. Because of the angle, I couldn’t tell if it was Alvin. But, I figured it probably was.
Got a problem with good dental hygiene? Walking? What?
Sustainable, Green(e) lifestyle? Multitasking?
Of course he ain’t right.
He’s a DEMOCRAT for Pete’s sake!!!
(I keed! I keed!)*
*Not really.

He can’t make a $262 bail? Didn’t he have to scrounge like $10,000 to run in the Democrat primary?
Oh lord, I don’t know where to begin.
Call Harpo.
Screw Harpo. Call Oprah.. It’s her company!
What makes you think he paid the filing fee?
The fact that he cashed out his savings from his time in the Air Farce and the Guard? The source of the funds was thouroughly investigated and Poor Ol’Alvin indeed saved $10,400 and paid the fee himself.

Why do we think Po’Ol”Alvin paid the fees himself? Probably because he did, the allegation that it was some dirty trickster who paid his fees was thoroughly investigated and the evidence clearly showed that while our boy may not be long on brains, he was pretty good at saving his money.

Trespassing…hmmm…
Maybe he didn’t “want his boys to watch the game alone.”
Alvin Greene – the gift that keeps giving…

Mark Sanford gets a seat in Congress after his trespassing crime and Alvin GreenE gets a 4+ all expense paid vacation on the Redneck Riviera. What a shame – just what Attorney General Holder was rappin bout today.
Mark bought his way out and Alvin couldn’t.

Alvin would still make a better Senator than Lindsey Graham, ANY day of the week!
100% agreed.
He couldn’t make a worse POTUS than Obama.
You really are trying to sound like an idiot, right?
No, just being truthful. I doubt that Alvin would be flying junkets to the Middle East in attempts to give away more money we don’t have to people who either are our enemy or who will one day be our enemy, or get us involved in another war we will not be allowed to win.
I doubt that Alvin would be pushing hard to flood our country with more have-nots who don’t speak our language, by giving away unearned amnesty and making false promises to seal the borders.
I doubt that Alvin would be pushing things like NDAA-2012, The Patriot Act, or other anti-liberty measures at every turn.
As I said, Alvin would make a better Senator than Lindsey, ANY day of the week.

Green would make a much better President than Obama, God how could anyone be worse?

This statement just in from Alvin:
I didn’t do nothing wrong. My diabetes affected the rock shoe in my. I’d just like to say we need justice in the judicial system. I was on my way to punch Grouchy Smurf. Hahahaha and then you have to remember that Alvin Greene is on the Scene. And speaking of jobs, another thing we can do for jobs is make toys of me, especially for the holidays. Little dolls. Me. Like maybe little action dolls. Me in an army uniform, air force uniform, and me in my suit. They can make toys of me and my vehicle, especially for the holidays and Christmas for the kids. That’s something that would create jobs. So you see I think out of the box like that. It’s not something a typical person would bring up. That’s something that could happen, that makes sense. It’s not a joke. You know, I’m unemployed, and, if could get elected, I can teach the Harvard rich kids in the White House and the Senate a thing or two. If I can make bail that is.
LOL! +10

Almost this entire “statement” is verbatim quotes from poor Al’s other statements, he never actually spoke for this long in his life.

Did we ever determine whether or not Jim DeMint actually started the recession?

Racism will always be a part of South Carolina culture. He looks like an angel incarnate compared to the crooks in the General Assembly.

More details would be appreciated about his trespassing charge – where, whose property, and so forth………..
