The residents of quaintly moneyed Connecticut 'burb Farmington have their conservative panties in a bunch over tonight's big party being hosted by Farmington resident and bullet-addled rapper 50 Cent. The local folks don't see a lot of 50, but they know he's around:

Geoff Boyle, the manager of the Country Club of Farmington, denied a rumor that Mr. Jackson wanted to join. And if he did?

"He'd need a sponsor and he'd need to adhere to the dress code," Mr. Boyle said. "No thug clothes on the golf course."

"Thug clothes?" It's called "melanin," buddy. And Kevlar, on the other hand, knows no color.
