If this upsets you, I encourage you to read There Are No Children here by Alex Kotlowitz. The setting is not only the same, but the situations are very similar. It's a true story about two boys growing up in Chicago's housing projects. Friends are being killed all the time and they are...

Perez Hilton twittered last night that there we rumors of Nicole going into labor (posted after DJ AM was found dead).

You're right, the DP isn't a deterrent for murderers or any criminals. Criminals generally don't consider punishment when committing crimes. You're wrong, on the other hand, about keeping them alive costing more than execution. It's well-known that the cost of execution far exceeds the cost...

It's well-known that the DP is not a deterrent. Children are still going to be violated, there will still be predators even with the DP. I'm not saying that there shouldn't be stricter punishment for SOs but I don't think that it should be the DP. It kind of makes "an eye for an eye" a moot...

I didn't say athletes are responsible for raising someone else's kids. I think that as a public figure, representing an organization and even a city, there should be ethics guidelines. It's a big deal when people are caught using steroids in sports. When there are light penalties for bad...

IMO: Michael Vick should not be allowed to play in the NFL. In fact, felons should be banned from the NFL. Football players are not only football players, but role models. They're expected to contribute to charities and portray a positive image. When one is convicted of a felony, they...

I heard about the fat guy. I have a moderately large friend (not 500 lbs) and we have a relationship where we're constantly making fun of eachother. His family is from Mexico, and I always joke about him smuggling me into Mexico via fat roll.

I don't know how I feel about this. On one hand I think I'd rather get a piece of pizza thrown at me than be spanked, or shot, or murdered (as we know many of the parents who end up on websleuths resort to). On the other hand, there's no excuse for abuse in any form against a child. Plus...

I almost feel bad for this guy. I don't know what he did, but I wouldn't want to go to jail in that shirt. :doh:!!!! Sorry I don't have a news story for this, I found it on digg.com so if it's not okay to post, I'll delete it.

I'm not going to argue, I was just giving my opinion as well, as to why I don't agree with yours.

Not all rappers are criminals, and not all military men(/women) are saints. I know from experience (domestic abuse by a navy sailor). I'm not an advocate for his criminal behavior, but there's nothing more that I hate than generalizations and stereotypes. I don't see a connection as far as...

I think what's concerning to a lot of people was that he was attempting to extort money from others using their names in a legitimate manner.

Thanks, I must have missed your post regarding that. Still, I think it's shady that he was trying to bill people for using their names in a legitimate manner.

I found that absolutely bizarre and have to question his motives (which I don't think were the right to privacy for his children). It does seem even more odd that he would do that for mentally handicapped children. I don't know a lot about disabled children, but I would think that even through...

The other thing I was thinking, was that if he was using that strip club as a front, he could have been using his other businesses as fronts as well, yet still dealing with the same people. I don't think that questioning the old strip club is out of line, since there are concerns that this...

I hear you about the drugs. I didn't realize how bad FL was when it came to drugs. That is the only place I've ever been where people actually approach you to offer weed. It's weird because I've been in Pensacola, Daytona, and Jacksonville and it's happened. Maybe I just look like a stoner...

I agree. This thread is so frustrating to read when people are basically saying "I know something you don't know," when we're all here for the same reason. Then it becomes a guessing game, when someone else mentions it, the person who 'knew it first' is like DING DING DING! YOU WIN...

I guess my brain is too scrambled with all the names and connections to understand how this myspace is significant (Not your fault, though!) I was mainly just posting to let you know that the picture of the guy and girl with the tattoos is a really popular picture on many people's Myspace's...
