  • Glad to see Missouri get this right. In your face Claire McCaskill!!! I was getting a little worried when they started introducing bills to restrict our rights, including a bill that would give schools a right to know if there are guns in your home. I guess Missouri spoke loud and clear about where they stand on that! Whether it stands or not, it sends an important message and draws an unmistakable line in the sand.

  • Looks to me like they were racially profiled. Who says there isn’t racism in America? They were chosen on purpose to make a point that they will screen anyone, regardless of age, race, or gender.

    You know, because there are so many three- year-old little girls in tiny pink wheel chairs trying to bomb air planes.

    Shame on them for making that baby suffer, like she doesn’t have enough to deal with for her entire life.

    Abolish the TSA and privatize airport security.

  • Today is officially a day of mourning…

  • It takes great courage to be a great parent. Kudos to this courageous mother! I hope she sticks to her guns and doesn’t get him a new truck down the road.
    A second chance would have been for coming home and hour and a half late and sober. Drinking and driving at 16 is HUGE and requires serious action on the part of the parents. Good to see that at least the mother has some perspective.

    Taking his keys and giving him a second chance would have been appropriate for coming home an hour and a half late and sober. Drinking and driving at 16 is a huge red flag and serious action was required. I’m proud to share Wyoming as my home state with this mom!

  • Proof that disarming the American people is NOT the answer to stopping violent crime.

    Arming the American people is the answer.

    Imagine how many children could have been saved if the principal or the secretary in CT had been armed and trained to take down an intruder.

    Guns are not the problem. People who have been desensitized to violence and raised in a society where every behavior and every whim is acceptable, and tolerated, is the problem.

    Arm yourself now, the 2nd Amendment is under attack.

  • The responsibility to protect private information lies with the person holding the information, that would be the hospital. The nurse screwed up and gave a patient’s info to someone who was not authorized. Who hasn’t screwed up at some point? The difference is that most of us don’t consider a major mistake a good reason to off ourselves.
    The media asks about classified information in just about every press conference. The person being questioned is the one responsible for telling them they can’t have classified information. You don’t see anyone firing the press for seeking classified info from the government. You didn’t see petraeus kill himself when someone outed all of his dirty laundry. Did the person who came forward with all of his private emails get fired? Nope!
    The fact remains, that nurse made a choice to release the information over the phone, and then she made a choice to kill herself rather than face the music. That is not the DJ’s fault.

  • For people who like to point to “religious zealots” as their reason for not being pro-life…

    Take religion out of the equation. Whenever a child is created, the choice was made when the parents decided to have sex. Sex directly leads to pregnancy…this is not a new idea or discovery. Public schools start teaching this concept in middle school, sometimes earlier. Abortion is not the choice, sex was the choice. Pregnancy is the consequence of the choice that was already made.

    Whether or not you believe sex outside of marriage is a moral issue, it is always a decision that has consequences. If you don’t like the consequences of a choice, make a different choice…like abstinence. Abstinence might not be a very popular choice in our “freedom from consequences” society that we have created, but it is the only way to control the consequence of sex without fail.

  • My kids don’t even have cell phones, we don’t have cable, and they are only allowed on the computer for homework during the week. Here’s the shocker…we’re not Amish either!!!! Kids don’t need cell phones, they don’t need to socialize on the internet, and they are better off not being commercialized by television. Withholding all of this superfluous crap from our children saves them a lot of unnecessary stress and drama, and protects them from a lot of danger. My children cannot be cyberbullied, they cannot be stalked by predators online, they cannot be engaged in sexting, and they do not have access to pornography in our home.

    For the first time in the last three and a half years I can say, well done Mr. President. Maybe he should have stuck to being a lawyer and a father. Lying and parenting seem to be his strengths…leader of the free world, not so much.

  • If there is any doubt left, the comments on this page prove that we are already in the midst of another civil war. I don’t see anyone rising to the top to be a leader, just a bunch of angry americans spouting off with no action behind their words.

    This is a tragedy. All violent crimes are hate crimes. we need to take the high road and stop stooping to the level of those trying to agitate things. Stop letting them push your buttons, you make it too easy for them. This is what they want, everyone yelling racism every five seconds and getting more angry until more violence erupts. Rise above it, handle it with class and dignity, and stop crying about how unfair things are.

    Act, don’t react.
