These are nice pictures to see. Whilst there's no denying that racism exists amongst officers, we shouldn't tar all cops with the same brush. I'm pretty sure that a lot of cops took the job because they wanted to make a positive difference to society. Of course there are bad apples but you get...

What a crazy story. I wonder what on earth it is that drives people to want to be eaten? And what drives others to want to eat them? Even though this appears to be consensual cannibalism, I am concerned that 8.5 years in a regular prison is nowhere near enough. He clearly needs some kind of...

OK, I get that this man is pleading insanity (and whilst I'm no supermodel myself, I can see why) but I think it was really insensitive of his sister to say I highly doubt that anyone can understand the pain which Christine Fradeneck's parents are in either...

Goodness me, what a horrible story. Isn't it awful that another woman was basically forcing female passengers to be patted down. Why on earth did she enable this disgusting behavior? I'm glad they both got fired but it's a shame that no charges can be pressed.

In the UK, making homphobic remarks is illegal under the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act. This covers most forms of hate speech, including that against race, religion, gender or disability. Such cases often make the national newspapers and judges do seem to delight in making an example of...

What an interesting headline this article has - On further reading, it appears that the execution has been halted as the judge found the defendant, Andre Cole, to be mentally unsound and therefore incompetent to be executed. Cole was originally sentenced in 1998 for murdering another man...

How do you reckon we should execute them? I would favor strapping them into a chair and having their eyes forcibly kept open, like that scene in "Clockwork Orange" whilst showing them the worst that Facebook has to offer. All the grotesque pictures of kids covered with half chewed food and the...

I think that if a person is in that state of mind, they would pick up anything in the vicinity that could potentially cause harm. It's clear that this guy wasn't in his right mind at all but sadly, we'll never know the truth about the matter.

I'm another one who hates mornings. I can't deal with anything until I've drunk my morning coffee and the OH knows not to try and talk to me about anything important at this time. Evenings are the times when I feel at my most efficient.

That really is an interesting point. Of course, color really shouldn't be of importance but the media are always quick to report any blacks shot by white police. I wonder why they have changed tack for this particular report?

Jodi Arias, convicted of brutally murdering her boyfriend was today sentenced to life imprisonment with no chance of parole. She has avoided the deathsentence which prosecuters originally sought. Should she have been executed? Or is life, with no parole punishment enough, especially at her...

Oh no, not the homeschooling debate again! Don't get me wrong Gabe, I do agree that when children are homeschooled they remain somewhat under the radar and there aren't any adults outside the family for them to turn to. But for some reason, the subject of homeschooling and any suggestion that it...

I'm just an old gossip, that's all! But yes, I certainly hope that's all it was, although it does seem unlikely in this day and age.

I've got to admit that there are a few tears in my eyes reading this story and I'm not a very emotional person at all. How frightened must that poor lad have been? I pray that he recovers fully from his ordeal and that he is found more suitable living arrangements. As for the mother, I'd be...

Me and the OH have made the joint decision not to procreate, yet people still insist on asking us when it's going to happen. When we say that we aren't having any, we get the predictable responses like "Doesn't your mom deserve to be a grandma?" or "You'll love them once they're here". Another...

The key to avoiding doing your bed in the morning is to just use a duvet. Mind you, I'm in a colder country so this wouldn't work for everyone. Other things that are pointless include reality shows, peas, Rihanna and the majority of smartphone apps.

The thing is, it's too easy to make incorrect assumptions in cases like this. Crime statistics are probably the only real indicator of whether a neighborhood is safe or not. You can't just assume that somewhere is dangerous just because theere are a bunch of guys standing on one street corner or...

To think that was the boy's father! What a scumbag. However, I doubt that this was a one-off. What on earth was the mother doing to prevent this?

This story has been all over the news f or the past few days and it seems incredulous th think that the police thought the initial alarm wasn't worth bothering with. after giving it some thought, it could very well be an inside job. The robbers seemed to know that they didn't need to rush and...

We are, aren't we. I wonder if it is happening more often or whether it is just being detected or reported more often? It certainly does seem like you hear a similar story every week.
