Anthrax-laced heroin killing users in Europe
So many comments come to mind. They’re worried about saving iv drug users’ lives instead of, oh – I don’t know – working to ease the pain of those folks who are suffering who did NOT put themselves in harm’s way in the first place.
They’re using illegal drugs for non-medically-necessary reasons. Many of them steal or injure other people to get the money to buy their drugs.
And you want to save them?
Social Darwinism, at its’ finest.
As for the news article, this snippet by Rachel Heathcock from the London branch of the Health Protection Agency jumped out at me:
“It is extremely rare for anthrax to be spread from person to person,” she said in a statement.
It was followed shortly by this snippet:
Anthrax is an acute infectious disease caused by spores of bacillus anthracis bacteria.
What part of “infectious disease” is difficult to understand?

So with all the recent natural disasters we’ve seen, heard or experienced, I have kind of a weird question/belief..
Why is “looting” so terrible when it’s stuff (food/water/blankets/etc) necessary for *SURVIVAL*?
I *TOTALLY* understand that people stealing tv’s SUCK and that’s stealing.
But – and here’s my point – if people NEED it to SURVIVE (again – food/water/blankets/etc) – it’s a basic human RIGHT and NEED.
So – all you asshats claiming that people “stealing” necessities are bad and need to be punished? You can all take a ride on the PissOff Express.
Side note: Senator Clinton is on her way to Chile…

Parents In A Pickle Over “Vegetable Abuse” Billboard
Driving down a Dallas highway, a mom spots a billboard of a pickle with a frown and a request to “Stop Vegetable Abuse” – then advertising in text ONLY, two websites (www.condomsusa.com and www.sarassecret.com).
The mom FREAKS out, claiming it demeans the christian values she’s teaching her kids.
Remove head from sphincter BEFORE speaking, wench. The billboard wasn’t graphic. I would wager to say most if not all kids will NOT understand it.
If YOU don’t make a big deal about it, your KIDS won’t either. And a little knowledge NEVER hurt a kid. It might keep you from being a grandmother before your kid is out of high school.
Think about it.

BTW: The Inspiration Room has the actual billboard AND a commercial.
/giggle
NOTE:
Gary Krupkin, president of Condoms To Go and Sara’s Secret doesn’t believe the ad is offensive. Krupkin has no plans to remove it. “Our billboard is certainly not as graphic as a lot of billboards I’ve seen advertise gentlemen’s clubs,” he said.
And he’s RIGHT. The “gentlemen’s clubs” billboards are WAY more provactive and difficult to explain to a child.

I’ve su’d and sudo’d folks before. It’s amusing to watch and hear the results.
Note: Don’t piss off an admin. 
Don’t forget to hover over the comic for the comment!

Georgia man guilty of slapping toddler in Walmart
This resulted from the following:
Authorities say the girl and her mother were shopping on Aug. 31, when the toddler began crying. The police report says Stephens approached the mother and said, “If you don’t shut that baby up, I will shut her up for you.”
Now, we don’t know how long the kid was crying, why the kid was crying, why the bonehead mother didn’t discipline her kid or remove the herself and the kid to the restroom/car/whatever.
It’s very possible the kid was a spastic brat who was screaming and crying because mommy wouldn’t get her X toy or Y candy.
And I’m a single mother of two, one of which was a difficult child at times. So I *DO* know what I’m talking about. It’s quite easy to set your cart aside (many times, you can set it in the customer service area and they’ll keep an eye on it for you) and remove your child to the restroom (not advisable: it echoes), the car (works nicely, and you can stand right outside it and let them get it out of their system: trust me, they WILL stop eventually) or take them home (BEST OPTION if they’re really on a jag).
/cough
So many parents are worried about disciplining their rotten, misbehaving, unpleasant children because of nosy bastards who feel that ANY discipline is abuse.
Fuckwits.
