No offense here but you asked, this is what happens when similar maturities meet.

A grown person would not have been offended to begin with. Could have shot back, "well at least I am out of diapers" and kept walking. And to key the car??? I am sorry but that was way too immature and petty.

You don't have to worry, anyone dealing with you will not think you are old by any means so no worries.

Sad all the way around. He had parents too.

REPORT: Private Sector Adds 325,000 New Jobs In December
January 5, 2012
By Stephen D. Foster Jr.

Since President Obama took the oath of office in 2009, Republicans have blamed him directly for the economy. They have constantly claimed that the stimulus hasn’t worked and that the state of the economy is his responsibility. That’s fine. Because in December 2011, the private sector added 325,000 American jobs and Republicans can’t take an ounce of credit for it.


According to the latest ADP National Employment Report, the private sector grew by 325,000 jobs in December which eclipses the average needed to keep up with population increases. Here are the growth numbers by sector:

Service: +273,000 jobs
Goods: +52,000 jobs
Manufacturing: +22,000 jobs
Construction: +26,000 jobs
Financial services: -1,000 jobs

The numbers as a whole are really great news but the manufacturing and construction sector jobs numbers indicate true economic growth and improvement. It suggests that Americans are demanding products again. Curiously, the private sector jobs didn’t come courtesy of the big “American” corporations that Republicans claim are the “job creators.” The majority of the jobs were created by smaller US businesses. You know, the REAL job creators.

Last time I checked, President Obama and the 111th Congress controlled by Democrats were the ones who passed laws designed to aid small businesses. The current Republican controlled Congress hasn’t passed one jobs bill. Clearly, the Democrats, and President Obama in particular, are responsible for 325,000 Americans getting brand new jobs in December. Republican spin in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…



I think even if some of that is holiday jobs which I don't know if those were counted that is good news.

Well I think "tolerant" was created at a time when people were trying to get say the religious to stop tormenting those unlike themselves. So the word tolerate became the norm for not tormenting others for being different.

Accepting that others have the right to live with the same rights as you do is the key. Toleration is really not the correct word for the above at all.

Now that the laws have started to protect those who get/got tormented by the religious, toleration is a moot point. Let others live their lives or get persecuted by the law is now the word s of the day.

I walk.

I have worked myself up to 3-4 miles every other day or at least three times a week. I don't hold myself to a regiment because it will make me lose interest so I do it when I want to. It takes me a long time because of the MS. I spend two hours or more at it when I do it. But it is working well for my health so I am enjoying the benefits.

Except if people would have done their homework on this.......the government was able to this before this bill.

There is nothing new in this bill about detention other than naming of a few groups of terrorist specifically. Otherwise the detention capability is the same as it has been since the patriot act was inacted.

People really need to do their homework.

This could be done since Bush.

There is no viable challenge to Obama


We had better vote him back in or we are looking at the end of our freedoms in this country.

Excellent article.

The concept of religion is disrespectful though because it sets the black and white false boundary of right and wrong based on ideology that is more tradition than of any use. As long as there is religion there will be the disrespect of those outside of the group of the religious.

LOL, he is no Malcolm however. Malcolm had real moxy in the face of oppression and discrimination.

Santorum wants to impose 'Judeo-Christian Sharia'
By Dean Obeidallah, Special to CNN
updated 2:30 PM EST, Thu January 5, 2012

Dean Obeidallah: Santorum would like to impose Christian law on U.S.
He says Santorum has repeatedly said he thinks civil law should reflect Christian law
He says candidate would annul gay marriages, compel rape victims to give birth
Obeidallah: How does this differ from Sharia law Santorum warns about, denounces?

(CNN) -- There are two Rick Santorums: The first one I might not agree with, but the second one truly scares me.

"Santorum One" pushes for less government regulation for corporations and shrinking the federal government. You may or may not agree with these positions, but they are both mainstream conservative fare.

Then there's "Santorum Two." This Santorum wants to impose conservative Christian law upon America. Am I being hyperbolic or overly dramatic with this statement? I wish I were, but I'm not.

Plainly put, Rick Santorum wants to convert our current legal system into one that requires our laws to be in agreement with religious law, not unlike what the Taliban want to do in Afghanistan.

Santorum is not hiding this. The only reason you may not be aware of it is because up until his recent surge in the polls, the media were ignoring him. However, "Santorum Two" was out there telling anyone who would listen.

He told a crowd at a November campaign stop in Iowa in no uncertain terms, "our civil laws have to comport with a higher law: God's law."

On Thanksgiving Day at an Iowa candidates' forum, he reiterated: "We have civil laws, but our civil laws have to comport with the higher law."
"Imagine if either of the two Muslim members of Congress declared their support for a proposed American law based on verses from the Quran. The outcry would be deafening, especially from people like Santorum."
Dean Obeidallah

Yes, that means exactly what you think it does: Santorum believes that each and every one of our government's laws must match God's law, warning that "as long as there is a discordance between the two, there will be agitation." I'm not exactly sure what "agitation" means in this context, but I think it's a code word for something much worse than acid reflux.

And as an aside, when Santorum says "God," he means "not any god (but) the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob." So, if your god differs from Rick's, your god's views will be ignored, just like the father is on "Keeping Up with the Kardashians."

Some of you might be asking: How far will "Santorum Two" take this? It's not like he's going to base public policy decisions on Bible passages, right?

Well, here's what Santorum had to say just last week when asked about his opposition to gay marriage: "We have Judeo-Christian values that are based on biblical truth. ... And those truths don't change just because people's attitudes may change."

Santorum could not be more unambiguous: His policy decisions will be based on "biblical truths," and as he noted, these "truths" will not change regardless of whether public opinion has evolved since the time the Bible was written thousands of years ago.

Imagine if either of the two Muslim members of Congress declared their support for a proposed American law based on verses from the Quran. The outcry would be deafening, especially from people like Santorum.

One of the great ironies is that Santorum has been a leader in sounding alarm bells that Muslims want to impose Islamic law -- called Sharia law -- upon non-Muslims in America. While Santorum fails to offer even a scintilla of credible evidence to support this claim, he continually warns about the "creeping" influence of Muslim law.

Santorum's fundamental problem with Sharia law is that it's "not just a religious code. It is also a governmental code. It happens to be both religious in nature and origin, but it is a civil code."

Consequently, under the Sharia system, the civil laws of the land must comport with God's law. Now, where did I hear about someone wanting to impose only laws that agree with God's law in America?

So, what type of nation might the United States be under Rick Santorum's Sharia law?

1. Rape victims would be forced to give birth to the rapist's child. Santorum has stated that his religious beliefs dictate that life begins at conception, and as a result, rape victims would be sentenced to carrying the child of the rapist for nine months.

2. Gay marriages would be annulled. Santorum recently declared that not only does he oppose gay marriages, but he supports a federal constitutional amendment that would ban them, invalidating all previous gay marriages that have legally been sanctioned by states and thus callously destroying marriages and thrusting families into chaos.

3. Santorum would ban all federal funding for birth control and would not oppose any state that wanted to pass laws making birth control illegal.

4. No porn! I'm not kidding. Santorum signed "The Marriage Vow" pledge (PDF) authored by the Family Leader organization, under which he swears to oppose pornography. I think many would agree that alone should disqualify him from being president.

To me, "Santorum Two" truly poses an existential threat to the separation of church and state, one of the bedrock principles of our nation since its inception. Not only did Thomas Jefferson speak of the need to create "a wall of separation between church and state," so did Santorum's idol, Ronald Reagan, who succinctly stated, "church and state are, and must remain, separate."

While there may be millions of Americans who in their heart agree with the views of "Santorum Two," it is my hope they will reject any attempts to move America closer to a becoming the Afghanistan of the Western Hemisphere.

Actually this is nothing new, it is just being said more plainly now. Christians have been trying to do this since the beginning of their time in existence.

Paul is a dipshyte so what he says really is dismissible as mullarky most of the time.

His desires for anarchy in this country will not happen. He has shown his *** as a racists and a sexist amongst other things

As to aids, they do not know where it started from, in other words they have no clue how it became "humanized" and even though pigs and birds give us the flu every year without any sex involved I guess in order to make it the "evil disease they want to make it, they would have to make it a sexually deviant transmission. But in truth if you care for the truth, it doesn't have to involve sex at all.

Colo. girl killed in apparent accidental shooting
Updated 10:53 a.m., Tuesday, December 27, 2011


CANON CITY, Colo. (AP) — A 5-year-old Fremont County girl is dead in an apparent accidental shooting.

The Fremont County sheriff's office said Ruth Joy Wilson was found dead Monday evening in her family's home in the High Park Ranch subdivision. Investigators believe she accidentally shot herself while handling a .45 caliber handgun in her parents' upstairs bedroom.

The girl's parents, Levi and Grace Ann Wilson, and an infant were downstairs at the time.

The sheriff's office said the results of their investigation will be turned over to prosecutors, who will decide whether any charges should be filed.

It just never gets better.

As to the OP, I told my kids of Santa as soon as they were old enough to understand that it was an untruth that was spread to make children have a more fun holiday. They were never really lied to except by the social stuff they heard away from me.

Very good. Also it wasn't Christmas first so the politically correct form for it would be Yule or winter solstice since that was before Christianity anyway.

Although it is not Christmas to me, it is a winter celebration like it was before Christianity, I will take it that no one meant offense by wishing something on me that I don't celebrate or recognize.

I really do hope that it is a good safe and loving holiday for everyone.

The police grade is more potent than the stuff sold on the street too. I could see how it could cause respiratory problems that result in death.

That pepper spray is no joke that is for sure.

There is no way to change that result. Yea the result is way harsh. An innocent child died because of an irresponsible gun owner. And the three year old is just another victim that just happened to live.

There will definitely be residual stuff and like my childhood molestation, I buried it until I was in my twenties and then it came back to me and I understood what terrible thing has happened. If this happens to this child it is a life time of counseling and mess upness.

Well maybe your interpretation of the constitution needs to be thrown out, mine is fine. Mental, emotional, criminal and responsibilital capacity should play a major role in who has a gun and we have some restrictions but not enough by far.

I was actually referring to when the three year old is grown. No matter what you say the three year old killed their sibling.
