Plagiarism thwarted

This is an apology extracted by former Rowan student and current Vineland Daily Journal metro editor Jerry Staas Haught.
Here is his (uncensored) comment on Facebook about the theft:
"I'm a motherfuckin' pitbull when it comes to protecting our values. You don't fuckin' steal anybody else's work. And you sure as shit don't fuckin' try to say "everybody does it" or "it was just a little copy and paste." Ain't no such thing... as "a little" in this case.
Throw in an attempt to steal from me and I'll bury your ass."

Prof's advice: Do not steal.
