One major difference is that both Holmes and Tsarvaev had just murdered and maimed scores of people and were either in possession or possibly in possession of heavy arms. Mike Brown was not armed and not even approaching a level of threat.

Genie, you're free.

If a person's success in life can be measured by how many people they helped to keep going no matter what by bringing laughter to their hearts and reminding them of the sheer joy of living, then I have to say: hands down, Mr. Robin Williams, you won. Thank you for all the times you touched my heart and made me keep…

It's not irresponsible or ridiculous at all. The question is why did killers not get killed and innocents get killed?

Cops deserve trust, patience and respect. The people they shoot, not so much.

I dunno, it's pretty hard to come with a context for "unarmed teen gets shot multiple times by police officer after running away following a physical altercation" that makes much sense.

The craziest thing to me in the aftermath of these killings is how accepting most people are of the militarization of the police. I fully expect that when video footage is found (dashcam or otherwise), Mike Brown will have done nothing that could warrant a reaction with fatal force, but people will still look and…

The pubes are the best part.

I finished the course pretty quickly, but I swear to God that never happens.

Gotta get me one of them Nike+ things and do a li'l bit of Dick Prancercise.

"If I post this TWICE, maybe someone will take note of my unnecessary criticism."

You really put in a lot of effort to comment not once, but twice that this is a slow mile. I bet you're fun at parties.

PANHANDLE GET IT?!?!?!

As someone new to running and also proudly slow as balls I just want to say you sir are very discouraging and also go against every inspirational running quote on Pinterest! What happened to "no matter how slow you're going, your lapping everyone on the couch", huh huh?

This woman is a genius.

I continue to be flummoxed by folks who believe that flying is somehow a constitutional right, that air marshals and cops are just there to annoy them, and that if they just yell and make a big enough scene they can totally stay on the small metal tube that will soon be up in the air.
