How would they “subdue” it? The zoo has weighed in on tranquilizing and concluded that doing so would have made the gorilla angry and violent and that it would have taken too long to go into effect. The boy was being dragged by his leg. The boy had already suffered injuries. Why should the zoo have risked his life and…

Absolutely. If an employee routinely has to work more than 40 hours to get through their normal workload, that means one of two things: Either the employee is actually incompetent, or, more likely, the employer is trying to get away with paying one person to do the work of two people.

Think of it this way...this is an unusual story, people were punished for harming this girl, and the general consensus of people reading about it is one of disgust. That was not always the case. That is not the case in some parts of the world right now. Things are getting better, but slowly.

I never understood how certain people can’t wrap their heads around the idea that working people half to death while paying them next to nothing is actually bad for their bottom line. Those people are going to make themselves sick if they don’t quit first and the work they produce cannot be as good as the work…

When I was in high school, a girl in my freshman gym class was married. Apparently her mother had found out that she was sleeping with some 20something dude the summer before high school started and insisted that they get married or she’d have him arrested. The girl seemed cool with it at the time, and we were all in…

We are so overdue for a plague

That guy’s quote pissed me off so much! If you’re giving your staff a workload that requires them 50 or 60 or however many hours a week to complete, that’s on you, not your employees. You need to pay them for their time. He sounds like a real peach to work for.

When did paying people for their work become “anti business?”

I run a small (tiny) business, and really, this law is looooong overdue. Pay people for the work they do or for the hours they work, and stop making excuses about how this will hurt - think of the people working long, hard hours for minimal compensation. If overtime is expensive for the employer in dollars, it is even…

This still involves a girl who: 1. was statutory raped because she is too young to consent; 2. didn’t consent to having 25 guys watch her have sex, and again, couldn’t have consented because statutory rape; 3. didn’t consent to star in an adult video, and couldn’t have consented because again, she is not an adult; 4.…

Seriously? He rapes a 15 year old, and your heart goes out to him? There are cases where criminal charges against 16 year olds are appropriate, and this has to be one of them.

Shit, this breaks my heart.

A nearly had a rage stroke when some POS radio station down here in “marry your first cousin land” posted the story a week or so ago with the caption “How Would You Discipline YOUR Daughter.” No shit.

Why do people on this website hate so hard on people’s faith? Specifically the Christian faith? Any story that mentions God in the slightest is met with comments about “imaginary friends” or “sky daddies.” So fucking disrespectful. I know there are a ton of shitty “Christians,” but this lady has shown no indication…

Everybody’s a perfect parent on the internet.

I want to know what any one of these fucking lunatics would have done if it was their child in the gorilla enclosure. I truly am devastated that the he had to be killed. It’s awful. But between that and a child being ripped to shreds while dozens of people looked on, I’m going with shoot the gorilla.

I am 6 weeks pregnant (yay) and I actually got knocked up when my husband and I were in Jamaica. Last week I went to two different doctors to try and get zika testing, and no one even knows how to do it! They keep pushing me off because they have no idea how to deal with it, and I know getting the results take 3-8…

But the WHO still doesn't think this is going to be an issue at the Olympics. Cause bringing people from all over the world, having them stay for a few weeks near shit-infested waters, and then heading back across the globe is in no way going to result in infected people bringing the virus to new countries. Brilliant.

Not knowing anything about their respective platforms, is it petty of me to hope they both lose? Getting an annulment after 24 years of marriage to avoid spousal or child support is slime-ball enough for me.

Jesse Hughes comes off as a horrible (traumatized) dickhead... but what a fucking shitty awful interview to stage with someone so thoroughly traumatized, to feed him these prompts to just spin into horrible bullshit so you can get a boost for your shitty conservative rag of a website. Like, taking someone with…
