Marissa Alexander’s 20-years mandatory prison sentence, where’s the damn community outrage? | Chocolate City: The Best African American Blog: "If you haven't been following Alexander's story, please allow me to recap the events that led to her getting slammed with a senseless and unjust mandatory twenty year sentence.
Alexander is serving “mandatory twenty year sentence,” for shooting a warning shot into the air after her abusive husband, Rico Gray, threatened to kill her. Nobody was hurt in that case. Alexander unsuccessfully tried to use Florida's controversial "Stand Your Ground" as her defense, but a jury convicted her of aggravated assault after ONLY 12 minutes of deliberation."

Baby Photos Might Get Your Lost Wallet Returned
Baby Photos Might Get Your Lost Wallet Returned: "Psychologists in Edinburgh left 240 test wallets "lost" around city streets last year, each containing a mailing address that a good Samaritan could act on. In the plastic photo frame of equal numbers of wallets, pictures of "a smiling baby, a cute puppy, a happy family or a contented elderly couple" were inserted, or no image was left at all. Some wallets also contained papers indicating the owner had recently donated to charity."

Arizona : Man Camping with Family Has Firearms Confiscated | Secure Our Freedom: "Arizona is known as one of the more gun friendly states. Here in Arizona we are a Constitutional Carry state, meaning we can legally carry any firearm (long gun or pistol) with or without a license to carry. In my personal experience with police in Arizona, most are very open to the idea of citizens possessing weapons."

Angelina Jolie inspires women to maim themselves by celebrating medically perverted double mastectomies
Angelina Jolie inspires women to maim themselves by celebrating medically perverted double mastectomies: "Angelina Jolie announced yesterday that she had both of her breasts surgically removed even though she had no breast cancer. She carries the BRCA1 gene, and she has been tricked into believing that genetic code is some sort of absolute blueprint to disease expression -- which it most certainly is not. Countless millions of women carry the BRCA1 gene and never express breast cancer because they lead healthy, anti-cancer lifestyles based on smart nutrition, exercise, sensible sunlight exposure and avoidance of cancer-causing chemicals."
