Beyond Disgusting Animal Cruelty
What the F*** is going on? I may not like spiders, but I'd never do anything even REMOTELY close to a spider that this person did to this poor dog! The person should be hanged, since, if they did this to a dog, what would they do to a human who just happened to accidentally make this person angry? Obviously this person is a danger to society - animal and human. Sadly the most this person will spend in jail will probably be less than a couple years. Not nearly enough.
Now come on, Cincinnati Police. Help your brothers out. Show that not ALL Cincinnati cops are crooked, evil, or just cannot be trusted. No wonder some of the African-American community has boycotted the town, and citizens are leaving like crazy. Now granted, the economy can't be helping, and the good cops surely aren't being paid enough, but there is a line you just don't cross, and taking advantage of a woman in a desperately dire situation is below any standard, even for normal male citizens. It's time for an overhaul in Cincinnati, and perhaps it needs to start at the top. All I know is that change MUST be made.
Oh my old high school hasn't changed... I remember bomb threats, hit lists, and big ol fights, and that started in elementary school! By middle school the bomb threats and hit lists started, and my freshman year, we had a quite infamously dubious "suicide." Now comes word that a 12 year old girl (or somewhere close to that) committed suicide. This isn't even a big city! It's a small "bedroom community" of Wichita supposedly known for its tranquility - it sure was for the most part when I was growing up! Here's what I think needs to happen. We need to remove the stigmatism in the school district of receiving help from the school councilors or therapists. We need to admit that young adults can and DO suffer from depression and stress. We need to teach coping skills early on so that students know how to deal with it. We need to teach students better and cut back on the homework some. Parents need to help by not focusing so hard on having their children over-booked in after-school activities. Most importantly, we need competent teachers, not ones that take advantage of our students (see this link). Come on folks. Let's take pride in having a safe town to rest our heads in at night and start making it the great little town it was years ago. I understand it has grown considerably - even in the years since I've been gone. But even bigger small towns can still have the small-town safety and ambiance.
Come on, kids. I understand you're a town completely dependent on illegals and Marines (what a combination), but let's be real. Almost every town has railroad tracks running through them, and yes sometimes it leads to rivalries. But most community divides have nothing to do with railroad tracks. A simple street can be the dividing line between poor and rich, or even just two schools which can lead to a friendly - and possibly fun - rivalry. Quit whining about the trivial crap. Focus on safety. How are you going to make sure the railroad doesn't interfere with vehicle traffic? How are you going to insure cars and people aren't going to be hit? Are you just going to put up arms, which people tend to ignore? Or are you going to build an over- or underpass for the train? These are the REAL issues.
