I completely agree with this statement. Thank you, Believe. I watched this developing news from the beginning and had to turn it off. Not because I was in any denial, but because all I could think of were all the friends and family watching the news coverage. The sheer pain that must have...

The game is called Bunco and is a dice game that, if I remember correctly, she played with her friends. As far as getting out of the house and going to "My Place", so what? This was a responsible Mother who went out every now and then. Also, there was absolutely no signs that she and Adam...

Fact, JBean. If the person is of age, the family has absolutely no rights regarding the welfare of their child. And, again, another fact. Unless there is an issue that LE must be involved in regarding a loved one, nothing can be done to get them admitted to hospital for evaluations. ~Then~...

Adam Lantz was an extremely troubled young man. From what I have heard/read via media, he had troubles starting very young and appears may have progressed as he got older. As far a premeditated, he could have "planned" this within a day. I think some event, and perhaps one that would have been a...

Those who are "psycho" have absolutely no awareness that they are. If there is mental illness here, she is not to blame though the loss of precious life was the cost. I will not make a judgement until the pros do what they must regarding this mother. Beyond tragic.... :(

I get these scam emails all the time and at this point, I find them "have your first laugh in the morning with mug 'o coffee" time. Read, chuckle, and delete. Then, take my blood pressure meds. It's a daily ritual. :)

I breastfed all 3 of my children. I also bottle fed. I don't agree with nursing a child who is potty trained and learning to become an independent young person. At some point, who is the nursing really for? But, that's just me. I would never, ever judge another Mom who chose not to nurse vs...

Trayvon's death, the media, and the need for privacy. I respect that and read nothing more into than that. I would do the same thing... imvho

With great respect I share this... If every victim of a crime had the ESP knowledge that their lives were in hanging in the balance of time, I have absolutley no doubt they would have dialed 911. Trayvon included. Your point is neither here nor there. imvho

In the very few minutes that this altercation occured, who would ever believe that they, the victim, would have to resort to that? Trayvon was a young man talking with his girlfriend and believed this "communication" with Zimmerman would just be another "what the heck" moment. Shoulda...

Sadly, Trayvon may have believed *he* was a victim (given the circumstances of being followed by a total stranger in a car and backed up by Zimmerman's own cell phone call to 911) of and attacked Zimmerman in self defense. Where is his voice to be heard? Zimmerman provoked Trayvon. Was this...

I disagree. Zimmerman followed Trayvon as is accounted by the phone calls Zimmerman made to 911. Trayvon did nothing, but attempt to walk home after buying a drink and Skittles at a grocery mart. imvho

Good grief... The discussion has now gone to what color Trayvon's hoodie (sweatshirt)? I have tried to catch up and just read, but this is getting way out of hand. The fact is Trayvon was walking home from a store, Zimmerman was following him, Zimmerman made 911 phone call, Trayvon had no clue...

To humilate *anyone* is just wrong. Period. It is not a fix and the only thing that results from it is that that person, no matter the reason or age, is a complete failure. The only person that ends up "feeling" the benefit is the person who chose to do that to another. Ugh!! I find that to...

Unfortunately, you misunderstood my previous post. I am not, nor will I *ever*, use the government to enforce what I hold for myself. Just sharing my thoughts. Not sure where you are going with this.... imvho
