Fury In Ferguson

 

 

The death of Michael Brown is a true Tragedy.  An 18 year old cut down before he could experience life.  What else is tragic is the looting and rioting. Please let the investigations be carried out, and if it is determined that Officer Wilson did use improper deadly force, then he should be prosecuted.  Violence won’t bring Mike back, but reporters and peaceful protesters practicing their 1st Amendment rights should not be hassled by the police either!

A Humanitarian Tragedy

 

 

Usually, I think that military action should only be used as a method of last resort, but in the case of the Religious minorities being slaughtered by ISIS,  all countries need to band together to defeat these murderers!

An Interesting Link

 

Here Is a site that argues that parents are going way overboard when it comes to protecting kids. Just because you let your kids play outside, walk to school on their own, or spend the night at a friend’s DOES NOT automatically mean that they will be kidnapped, molested, or murdered.  It’s OK to be wary, but let kids be kids and have a normal life!
