He was menacing, with a face only a mother could love

This has to be one of the more amusing articles I've ever seen. I've already written about the NYTimes article about the bio-clean-up people (eww), but now the Post has an article that talks about a study that shows that ugly people (kind of a subjective reference, but okay) are more likely to commit crimes.

I think the article simply misses a key point - if they are basing their study on convictions, then perhaps pretty people simply disproportionately get away with their crimes. Halle Berry hit-and-run, anyone?
