Stacey Lannert, 38, the girl who shot her rapist father , was released after being incarcerated for 18 years. In an interview with Nancy Grace, Stacey Lannert said her father had raped her from the time she was 8 until she was 16. Stacey Lannert continued on to describe that the judge had ordered the jury not to take the rape into consideration regarding their charges. I was appalled in hearing...

I came across a recent article talking about how religion is "fixed in huam nature," though attendance in European and American churches have declined over the years. Research shows people attend church more often in times of financial crisis than in times of prosperity. But does this reflect the selfishness of human nature? After all, if the only times you're going to church is when something is...

A Washington psychiatrist is claiming that the ideology of liberalism is a mental disorder . The veteran psychiatrist is making the claim under the supposition that the views of liberals are set in a mindset based upon the desire to be tended to from childhood through adulthood. Dr. Lyle Rossiter writes: "Based on strikingly irrational beliefs and emotions, modern liberals relentlessly undermine...

A woman in Pittsfield, MA attacked her wife with a turkey baster filled with sperm . An intoxicated Stephenie Lighten, 26, allegedly attempted to impregnate her wife against her will. When Jennifer Lighten was attacked, she locked herself in the bathroom and later tried to escape via the couple's SUV. Stephenie was stopped only after police managed to disarm her. Honestly, if your mate doesn't want...

I definitely don't plan on having any kids, and this article supports my decision. Can you imagine that 8 to 10 billion people are going to inhabit the earth by 2050? I'm almost glad I won't be living much longer past that; it's already crowded as it is with 6 billion! What I thought was really funny was the article's blatant conclusion that "even if we cut back on the use of fossil fuels, shut down...

An 88-year-old Nazi retiree deemed 'Ivan the Terrible' is wanted for the murder of 29,000 Jews during WWII at the Sobibor Nazi concentration camp. John Demjanjuk has lived in the states since 1952 and Israel has been wanting to execute him since 1988. Now Germany is issuing a warrant and asking us to hand him over. I say, hand him over; it doesn't matter how long you've dodged the law, if you're...

Oxana Malaya, the Ukrainian dog girl has showed up in the news after a several year disappearance where she underwent therapy that will help her reintegrate into society. However, psychologists have predicted Oxana Malaya may never learn to commit to humans after a childhood spent with dogs. While I think it's awesome that Oxana is being trained to interact properly with humans, I'm wondering how...

Chicago Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart is suing Craigslist , claiming that the site is the largest source of prostitution in the U.S. While it is understandable how Craigslist can be a threat, what with how it makes it harder to track pimp activity, I think that if utilized properly, it can help contribute to catching individuals performing illegal activities. Currently, Craigslist is considering implementing...

The Totally Stylin' Barbie comes with a set of tattoos that can be stuck anywhere on Barbie with a tattoo gun. Parents are complaining that the doll will influence their kids to get tattoos later on in life. I think it's an absurd idea to think that a single toy will get a kid to think of getting a tattoo 10 or even 12 years down the road. I mean, why not just ban people with tattoos from being in...

I read something interesting today... kids are giving up social networks like Facebook for lent. I like that. Instead of giving up, or in addition to a food indulgence, people are giving up their nasty habits of Facebook, Myspace, Twitter and the like. I thought about giving up the internet for a month, and it sounds rather nice actually. I don't know how that would work with my job... because I have...
