    No one knows why Alfred Wright died. Or why the physical therapist and married father of three with no history of drug-abuse ended up in the Texas underbrush -- his body full of cocaine, amphetamines and methamphetamine.

    Perfect example of a prank gone too far. Sad to hear story.
  •  
    That was completely overreacting. Even if people were vandalizing a house or even a building, opening fire at them is absurd. That man was definitively not thinking because this is down right wrong.
  •  
    This should not happen, we need to have more laws saying police can not fire at innocent people or should have a warrant for them.

Suit: L.A. schools 'incompetent' in settling $30 million abuse case - CNN.com - 0 views

  •  
    "A former Los Angeles public schools official is suing the system over settlements with dozens of students who were awarded $470,000 each, alleging that a teacher sentenced to prison on charges of lewd behavior never came into abusive contact with those children."
  •  
    Its hard to say with cases that involve teachers vs. students. While the teachers tend to be more credible, people accept students to be young and innocent and not able to lie under pressure. Who knows what really happened.

4 cases of Sexual harassment - 1 views

  •  
    This article is about how sexual harassment is still around, and how many people can be affected by it. I found it interesting that these authors found simple solutions to these problems, but also how some of the situations are rather stupid and how some people took what they called, "sexual harassment" to far.

Federal judge rules drivers allowed to flash headlights to warn of speed traps | Fox News - 1 views

  •  
    "A federal judge in Missouri ruled this week held that drivers have a First Amendment right to flash their headlights to warn other motorists of nearby police and speed traps. "
  •  
    Motorists flash lights at each other to warn about lots of different things, such as animals on the road, police being nearby, or slick roads. It would cause more harm than good to outlaw it.
  •  
    I think the person above me says it well. I don't see a HUGE problem with allowing the lights to be flashed in these situations (though I can see why some may be opposed).

Maryland bill would cut water, electricity to NSA headquarters | Fox News - 2 views

    "A group of legislators in Maryland has introduced legislation that would deny state support to federal agencies engaged in warrantless electronic surveillance in a move aimed at curtailing the National Security Agency's power to monitor and track citizens"

    I think the majority of us can say that we aren't too much for government spying on everyone. Glad to hear people are actually trying to change stuff instead of simply talking about it.

Retired Cop Shoots, Kills Man Over Texting - 0 views

    Are these really the steaks that need to be taken to stop people from texting in a movie?

    why would they do that

    When will It end!
  •  
    He is a retied cop, why would he shoot someone.
  •  
    That's taking it too far. Texting during the movie shouldn't happen in the first place (just outta respect to the fellow viewers), but do you really have to SHOOT someone out of it?
