"Jacob Weisberg has one good piece of advice: Treat gun control as a health issue, not a moral issue. I have another: Target people, not guns."

I agree, it is the people who owns the guns.

Taking away the right to bare arms is not a good idea because the criminals will still have possession of their unregistered guns, but doing a background check on people purchasing a gun is a good idea to stop guns from getting in the wrong hands.

"The tally of people shot and killed by on-duty police officers passed 700 on Wednesday night - a fatal milestone that is almost double the highest number of police shootings ever reported by the FBI for an entire year - according to a Washington Post database tracking all shootings death at the hands of police this year."

A mother posted on her facebook about how her son is an expert marksmen, and hints at the though of him going to shoot anyone who has bullied him in high school. The case is still under investigation.

I think that the intent with this story was #6: carrying out a crime to terrorize others by sending a message to potential victims. She claimed that only the people who had ever bullied her son would be shot. I also think that her attitude toward the situation is #24: indifference to the actions and their impact on the victims, she doesn't seem to say that she would have remorse for anyone that her son could possibly harm, because it wouldn't be his fault. And #8 targeting people who are weak and helpless.

This story would contain items 1, 6, 12, 24. 1- because it seems like she's trying to scare them, 6- because again, it seems like she's terrorizing others with the fact that her son is a perfect marksmen, 12- you just don't put that out on facebook, and 24- she doesn't seem to care about other people and how it could possible effect them.

"One in four people will show patterns of antisocial behavior at least once during their childhood and adolescence. From stealing to bullying, lying, or even committing violence, most people grow out of these behaviors."

Simple teach your kids some common decency and respect for others rights

I agree with what you said Nick people do need to teach their children this and they also need to watch what there kids are doing I mean how they treat people and other things I don't think people should have to make an article on how to raise you son to not be a rapist its stupid.

"To put these figures in context, we have slightly more jails and prisons in the U.S. -- 5,000 plus -- than we do degree-granting colleges and universities. In many parts of America, particularly the South, there are more people living in prisons than on college campuses."

wow this is crazy can't believe there are more jails than colleges wow

This is probably why we have overcrowded jails, because people go to jail more than college. That's crazy to me, what has this world come too. >:(

updated 1:13 AM EDT, Tue April 17, 2012 (CNN) -- Two Oklahoma daycare workers are facing felony child abuse charges after allegedly feeding habanero hot sauce to a 13-month-old boy and laughing as the infant writhed in agony. The incident occurred in March at a daycare in Muscogee Creek Nation, a federally recognized tribe of Muscogee people based in Oklahoma.

It is a good thing they got caught. Who knows what else they have/would have done to the children.

That is just mean to do that to a baby. What if someone did that to your child and they laughed will your child was in distress? You should not work in a daycare in you are gonna do that.

2011 marked the end of an era: St. Louis is no longer the Most Dangerous City in America. Not only did our city lose the coveted number-one spot, now held by Flint, Michigan, it slipped to number four! And it looks as though the city's murder rate will decline by 30 percent from 2010.

All of these stories are horrible. People who kill their children or brutally hurt them shouldnt have children in the first place...

All of these story's make me sick. They are horrible and it's hard to understand why people would do such things..

"Data collected by the Washington Post newspaper suggests that the number of people shot by US police is twice as high as official figures claim."

"Donald Trump's not going to get elected president by disparaging people, by attacking people all the time. That's not going to work. You lift people's spirits up to become president of the United States," Bush said Wednesday morning on Fox News. Trump on Tuesday posted a video on Instagram humorously asking people: "Having trouble sleeping at night?

"The former hotel administrator was arrested three months later. The official charge: criminal transmission of HIV -- a class B felony in Iowa, where the encounter occurred. Other crimes in this category include manslaughter, kidnapping, drug crimes and robbery."

I agree with the law and that you need to let people know but they used protection and and they didn't know at the time so Nick shouldn't be in prison. The law says it needs to be intentional but it wasn't intentional.

Nick Rhoades stated that he was protected and that he shouldn't be getting any sort of punishment but I can see that he did a class B felony crime because he did pass it on but for him being protected he wasn't trying to do any harm he doesn't deserve the punishment.

"The four reasons people commit hate crimes"

Kathmandu, Nepal (CNN) -- A ferocious leopard may have killed 15 people in Nepal in a 15-month span, its latest victim a 4-year-old boy that the creature dragged away into the jungle to eat. The head of boy was found in the forest a kilometer from his home Saturday morning, said Kamal Prasad Kharel, the police chief of the Baitadi district, an area about 600 kilometers (373 miles) west of Kathmandu.

"His jaw was blown away. I just want people to know the ugliness of it so we don't talk about it abstractly, like these little angels just went to heaven. No. They were butchered. They were brutalized. And that is what haunts me at night."

Brunswick, Georgia (CNN) -- A 14-year-old suspected of shooting a baby in the coastal city of Brunswick, Georgia, will make his first appearance in court at 9:30 a.m. ET Monday, according to a court clerk. Two teen boys were charged with murder Friday. The 14-year-old isn't being named because he's a minor.

It angers me when people just don't think about their actions. And these boys had the nerve to go and try to take money from this lady and then shoot her then kill her son what is wrong with people these days I mean seriously.

It's sad that even on mothers day people have to go and start shooting people up.

(CNN) -- Five people died late Sunday in a shootout at a Seattle, Washington, apartment complex. When police officers arrived, they could still hear gunfire, authorities said. Officers spotted two men lying wounded in the parking lot and attempted to rescue them, said police spokeswoman Cathy Schrock.

why would they be worried about saying that no officers were injured when 4 normal people were killed

"The state imprisons more people per capita than any other state or country in the world, with one out of every 86 adults behind bars. Its rate of incarceration is three times higher than Iran's and 10 times higher than Germany's."

He was speaking as the manslaughter trial began in the ruined town of L'Aquila of six scientists and one government official for their alleged role in the deaths of 309 people in the quake of April 2009
