Who's arresting who?

- Jeremy Meeks, 30, was arrested this week and Stockton, California police posted his mugshot to their Facebook as part of procedure

- Fewer than 24 hours later, the felon's face had gained a rabid fan following as over 20,000 people 'liked' the photo and nearly 6,000 had commented.


Facebook users are so enamored with the man in a mugshot posted to the Stockton, California page Wednesday that they liked the felon's police photo over 20,000 times in less than 24 hours.

The ice blue-eyed, strong-jawed likeness of Jeremy Meeks was just as quickly plastered across Twitter as thousands of social media users have themselves been arrested...by the 30-year-old's undeniable good looks.

Meeks, already a convicted felon, was hauled in as part of a gang police sweep, but he's the one sweeping internet denizens off their feet.

The police puns continue on the Stockton Police Facebook page, where the photo had an unbelievable 5,800 comments by Thursday evening. :eek:

Most comments stuck to the obvious jokes: 'What is he guilty of?! First Degree Sexiness?!' wrote Ashley Pruitt Carden.

Others, like Rhonda Cee, saw a moneymaking opportunity. 'He'll probably be on next years prison calendar...Mr....EVERY MONTH!' she wrote.

By far, one of the most thing to post was a comment about Meeks having missed his calling as a model.

'He needs to be a model,' wrote Bettina Jones. 'I would buy whatever he's selling!'

Meeks was charged with illegally possessing firearms and ammo, carrying a loaded firearm in public and criminal street gang activity, reports TMZ.

The repeat offender is being held on $900,000 bail, but perhaps not for long. There's talk amongst the commenters of raising the funds to set him free.

'He didn't know any different. I could turn him into a "model" citizen. Where can I pay his bail?' wrote Deborah Ann Mitchell.

Well of course not but they seem to be everywhere or maybe they're all that's left since the non shallow ones are happy in a their monogamous relationships. I'm in this phase of my life where I need to see things to believe them, a lot of things sound awesome but I need to see consistent real world examples.

Sometimes the littlest things make a big change in how we view things. There is more to people than that. I think we all, at time find ourselves where you are and we need to step out of the circle that keeps us in that came off mind. Not easy thing to do though. I've been there a couple of times....
 
A lot of times the women we find are a function of what we're giving off and where we're searching. You're too intelligent to be chasing bimbos anyhow. The book club, library, coffeehouse, etc work wonders. And, they help you redirect your focus onto more productive people and activities.

Of course. Only mentioned women b/c TDK is a guy. That's why I mentioned it being a result of what men are giving off ourselves. I sure don't want to be misunderstood on this point. :)

You know what's funny is I think I can find "good" women but my problem is finding appreciative and understanding people. Truthfully after all these years I've invested in dating and relationships I think spending time with just me is what's needed. I'm my worst self when I'm with someone

Nothing at all wrong with alone time. If you need it, take it.

Funny thing is that I find you much cheerier and nicer when you are in a relationship. But, alone time is absolutely important at times. For sure.
 
Smh This is why the media is annoying. First of all, why are they highlighting another Black man being held in slavery (oops I meant prison)? Secondly, if these women think he's so goddamn sexy, how about they send dude some money for his commissary?! :mad:
 
LOL, thanks for posting this Bliss. Heard some women's draws are getting wet over this dude on the Stockton California Lockup Facebook page

Some probably think they could reform him and turn him into their ideal man. :)

ROFL, they'll see how ideal he is when he starts kicking their ass around the room.

Frankly given he is on his way to prison with those charges, they may be giving this dude too much publicity for his own safety in the joint. Someone looking to make a name for themselves would shank him just for a rep. :)
