Re: Nice Planet, Part 2: A-holes on parade
Something I've kinda wondered about this sort of situation:
How in the HELL do you come back from doing something like that and lead a functioning life? Monumentally stupid, yes, but she now officially has no chance of ever being a productive member of society again. Like you said, one Google search and her name is mud. She might as well go Walter White, she's got nothing left to lose.

To me, the only way back is to eat a lot of crow and slowly build back your reputation through your actions over time. You're going to have to be the hardest working, most dependable person in any organization that gives you a shot.

A young lesbian woman goes to the home of her partners family for Thanksgiving dinner. After dinner she was brutally attacked by her partners brother and nearly beaten to death. Her brother did not approve of their relationship. So far he has only been charge with 2nd-degree assault but many say there should be more severe charges. Alabama, where the attack occured, does not include sexual orientation among the biases that can consitute a hate crime.

So back in my home town up in NY, a guy who has become quite popular during the Christmas season ringing the bell for the Salvation Army red kettle fundraiser has been told by Walmart that he is not allowed to do it there anymore. He would play Christmas music, dance around... really got into it. Being a relatively small town (12k or so), Walmart is one of the very few high traffic areas.
Don't know that there is a news article on it or not, but if I find one, I'll post it. Just another reason to shop at Target instead of Walmart I guess!!

I think this qualifies...Herm Edwards on tomorrow's Kansas City Chiefs game and how they should play or how Romeo should coach "they should play with HIS PASSION"
meaning the murderer's passion.
what?

did it escape Hermie that this dip**** committed murder?
how callous

Re: Nice Planet, Part 2: A-holes on parade
you might be right...
I think if the world was sane KC just wouldn't play tomorrow. they're diminishing the life of this woman and consequently tacitly stating that murder really isn't that big a deal anymore

Re: Nice Planet, Part 2: A-holes on parade
The NFL set the standard on cancelling games when it refused to do so after the JFK assassination. We should think of the victims. A little girl who will never know her mommy and daddy. A woman who watched her daughter be murdered by the man she loved. Lesser victims too: a head coach and general manager who watched as a player killed himself. Players and friends left to ask themselves if they missed the "signs" of impending violence and whether they could have "done something."
There will be theories to help us explain the inexplicable: concussion, bi-polar disorder, depression, brain tumor, another man, gambling debts, drug addictiion, etc. Yet none will be satisfactory. Some will even use this sad occasion to flog an anti-gun agenda. We will likely never know for certain what contributed to and triggered these acts.

Re: Nice Planet, Part 2: A-holes on parade
Yeah, but they will only be extremely stupid people, people that really deserve no respect whatsoever. Unfortunately, there are alot of really stupid people, so some of these fools get elected, which makes for the dangerous combination of power and utter stupidity.

IIRC, the commish (Rozelle?) at the time said that not postponing that game was a HUGE regret of his, for what it's worth.

I believe that should read, "A woman who watched her son murder the woman he 'loved'."

Re: Nice Planet, Part 2: A-holes on parade
So Bob Costas, who has become a millionaire many times over, in part because of a sport which frequently leaves those who play it mental and physical cripples, decides to give us a little civics lesson. It's ghoulish. I guess Costas took his inspiration from Jason Whitlock's column. Both seem to be suffering from "we gotta do something syndrome." My question is, what, exactly?
We have that pesky Second Amendment, which SCOTUS ruled gives Americans a constitutional right to bear arms. Assuming we could get around that, perhaps congress could pass an act outlawing gun possession by individual Americans. We could call it the Volstead Act.
And having passed such an act, we could go about the business of confiscating the hundreds of millions of guns already in private hands. I wouldn't anticipate too many problems there. And once we've confiscated those guns we would have to turn our attention to stopping the crooks who would immediately begin selling guns illegally. I realize there's no historical precedent for traficking in banned products, you'll just have to trust me.
In the alternative, we could adopt the strategy employed by anti-smoking zealots: gradually increasing restrictions on gun owners, which would have the practical effect of a ban. Above all, avoid using the "P" word.
Look, what happend in Kansas City is shocking. Here's a young guy, seemingly on top of the world, making a pile of money, with a beautiful lady and a new baby. What could go wrong? Well, everything apparantly. But in our shock and dismay, we shouldn't take leave of common sense. We should recognize that these kinds of occurances are statistically quite rare. And that taking a meat cleaver to the problem isn't likely to change the odds of a recurrance very much.
Tens of thousands of lives and families are destroyed each year by alcohol. Lost lives, especially innocent lives killed by drunk drivers, horrific injuries and ruined careers are part of the price we pay. Sadly, part of the price we pay for a Second Amendment is what happened in Kansas City.
It may turn out the young man was giving off signals which weren't noticed (we always seem to be able to diagnose these problems after the fact). But people who are troubled for one reason or another, rarely kill their lovers and then themselves.
I'm not a gun guy. Don't own guns. Never have. Never will. But I have nothing against the tens of millions of my fellow Americans who do. And it may be that if we had it to do all over again, we might be better off without a Second Amendment. But we don't get to do it all over again. We have a Second Amendment. And no amount of wishful thinking by do-gooders, including Bob Costas, can change that.

Israel Keyes, suspect in the kidnapping and murder of a barista from an Anchorage coffee stand, takes the coward's way out.
ETA: Likely a serial killer, believed involved in deaths in several other states. JFC.

Re: Nice Planet, Part 2: A-holes on parade
Not satisfied with merely being an ignorant hysteric, Jason Whitlock gets called up to the major leagues of paranoid racial pandering, claiming the NRA is the "new" Klan. First it was the San Jose Mercury News claiming crack was a white plot to enslave blacks. Then "Rev." Wright and Calypso Louis Farakhan (among others) peddling the nonsense that AIDS was a white plot to destroy blacks. And now this. The weekly casualty figures from Chicago, to name just one city, where young blacks are slaughtering other young blacks, are the fault of the NRA. Who knew? Add Jason Wheelock to the list of folks who ascribe the pathologies afflicting inner cities to someone else. Namely, whitey.
