Exactly what I was thinking. In all the scenarios she gave, there was zero chance of the victims being able to access the weapon. Assaulted in your own bed? "Please excuse me a minute, dear rapist, there is something I need in the next room."

This is huge. Really. It's an acknowledgement of the modern world. For all his flaws, this is the first pope we have that seems to have advanced beyond the fifteenth century. Bravo.

I get the feeling you don't fine dine regularly on account of you behaving like an animal and having the speech and grammar of a third grader.

"I will not live with the guilt of someone passing away."

Until those two boys kill themselves, the scale is not balanced.

Nothing this fuckstick or his parents say will ever matter, because the one person who matters in this scenario can't speak for herself ever again.

I know I'm in the minority on Jezebel about this but...I don't really care. She works for a church-based organization. It's far from shocking that they would care about this and fire her for it.

Now now, Pinkham. I imagine this is only step one in her plan. With the money Arizona saves from denying this outlandishly grand luxury to these freeloaders they can build work houses and prisons! And if they don't like it, why, they can just die and decrease the surplus population!

And what did he advise his son to do? "If a police officer stops you, do everything he tells you to do, don't move suddenly, don't reach for your cell phone." Well, I can see how it would be very upsetting to police if people acted that way....

This is a little off-topic, but... I had a friend who showed up to my father's funeral wearing jeans and work boots. Because that's what he wears for his job. He took his lunch break two hours early so he could come and pay his respects and I thought it was lovely. He made an effort to be there for my family and we…

She's not good, she's not nice, she's just right. She's the Witch.

As a Republican, Curt should be less concerned with where his votes are coming from and more concerned with suppressing them.

Leave it to a creationist to start making shit up.

Hi Rebecca I wrote my own take on this statement by her this morning at Groupthink. post I actually did not find it dumb. She is a master at pushing the right buttons for her followers. She knew how to turn this into an anti President Obama thing. This was clearly both a reference to the President who as a child…

These people bullied their own child to death and are persisting in that same rhetoric and behavior after the fact. They didn't love their daughter. They are so attached to an imaginary son that they killed her and they refuse to even remember her.

There is no excuse for what they've done and what they're continuing to…

I took a long time to admit that I was not just bisexual but consider myself as part of the LGBTQIA+ community. I have a fairly conservative family and the erasure of myself as part of not only a different religious system is a huge deal. Saying that I am bisexual, Democrat, and atheist is not OK for parts of my…

Find somebody who gives a fuck. They may as well have shoved the kid in front of that truck. I don't have much sympathy for anybody but the poor bastard driving that truck.

I few months ago I had someone tell me, "I don't hate you, I just hate your sin. That's why I continue to pray for you and love you." Last thing they ever told me because I cut them out of my life immediately afterwards.

The only solace I have with this situation is Leelah's parents are going to rot in hell. I really, really hope they do.

They loved their son so much that they killed their daughter.
