| Have you ever been with anyone where you didn't feel like you had to be fake?. No? that's why in social psychology they call subjects "actors" I don't think so. In most situations, yes, I do act, but I often suck at it. But whenever I'm around close friends or family I don't even bother to act. It'... |

I think I'm with Dark Lord on this one.
The 16 year old is old enough to know that if you throw a 3 year old 1.5 metres in the air onto concrete then his intention was to kill (I have no doubt).
His only saving grace is if he (the attacker) has a mental illness. |

| You know I'm a little lost for words, I can't believe such cruelty can happen in a place like Australia. I'll be writing to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) in Western Australia to let them know that I will support the 16 yr old's charges being upgraded to attempted murder. We need to send ... |

If the homeopathic medicine contains even a dilute concentration of hallucinogenic alkaloid, that purports to have side-effects then it can't be a placebo. But if you wan't to call it snake oil that's fine by me. |
