Bullcrap. Neither party are great, but the Republicans are demonstrably worse. This latest debacle is an indi... |

| This is a ruse by Republicans to try and extort a comprise from Obama on his historic health care plan. Regardless of their ploy, ObamaCare will be implemented and their attempts to prevent it will be futile and decidedly counterproductive. Republicans continue to brazenly employ duplicitous tactics... |

| Each year this lucrative race occurs, it endangers the lives of many innocent horses but too many people consider these precious animals expendable. The horses involuntarily take part in this hazardous race and unfortunately many end up dying. It's contemptible that many deem this race morally justi... |

| Feelings should be inconsequential to science; if it was indeed true that there is a higher of incidence of violence in aspies than neurotypicals we shouldn't bury our head in the sand. However there isn't enough conclusive to conclude that there is a correlation between Aspergers and violence. Much... |

| Dr.Sanjay Gupta is on CNN mentioning the fact that Autistics do NOT usually commit these acts.He has mentioned a study on 132 Autistics and only three out of that group study had issues with reactive violence but NOT the kind of planning that goes into an attack like this. And that people should no... |

| Now there's news the mother bought the guns for her kid that supposedly had some problems with his personality. You have to wonder why some people lack so much judgment. If you are going to buy your kid a lot of handguns, don't be surprised if your kid shoots you one day. I think it's harsh to put ... |

| I don't hate him, I hate the atrocious acts he has carried out. I would like to try and understand what would drive someone to kill so many innocent children. I believe this senseless act was avoidable, if this kid got better treatment and better support it's highly probable this incident would have... |

| The misinformation the media is spreading is utterly disgraceful; they have an obligation especially in cases like these to report the facts. A man on Piers Morgan last night said people with Aspergers lack empathy. Now I believe this man may have made a mistake, but it's up to CNN to correct this m... |

| The older generations who opened doors for ladies also were more likely in a disaster to say" women and children first",I dont find that sexist,more like some internal drive to save those who will perpetuate the species.
