Awful: New Ulm, MN elementray students playing 'rape tag'

Yeah. Like freeze tag. But instead of tagging, or crawling under them to un-freeze your teammates....you hump them. Yeah. What the hell.... From what you read, the teachers and administrators have done a good job dealing with it. Some parents are 'upset about having to deal with such an issue at their young age.' And the teachers are happy about having to try and explain why they can't play the game? You're the parents! You get to deal with it. Welcome to being a real parent. It's not the teacher's tried to have this happen so you'd have to deal with it. Blame that on letting your kids watch crappy TV....I'm just assuming, of course.

9USCCA: Gay marriage ban unconstitutional

Even if voter approved, you can remove someone's civil rights. This will be appealed to the Supreme Court. The question will be whether or not the Supreme Court will hear the appeal. I'm assuming yes...but who knows.

News: Rep. Fleming (R-LA) believes Onion's 'Abortionplex' story

I love it.

Don't get me wrong, I have fallen for a headline. But then, I click to confirm and SEE that it's the Onion. And laugh.

I do not then try to fool anyone else into believing it...like this Representative will probably try to pass it off as. He's an idiot. He thought it was real AFTER reading the whole article.

Impeach or elect someone else. Seriously...

Update: Woman ordered to decrypt laptop may have forgot password?

Never thought of this. Woman is ordered to decrypt laptop (a process I'm not sure if I agree or disagree with yet), has supposedly forgotten the password? Can you really hold her in contempt? You have no way to determine if she has or has not forgotten the password.

I realize that this will be a judgement call by the judge (and in latter case, possibly by a jury) to determine if she is telling the truth about forgetting. But, if it is reasonable possible to forget, can you really leave that up to a judge? To indefinitely hold a person in contempt for something that can be reasonably expected to not be their fault?

Sports: NFL considers eliminating Pro Bowl

No one cares about the Pro Bowl. Nobody. I want to know who's in it, not see them play. Have a big announcement of the Pro Bowl, just like an All-Americans announcement. The game itself is a waste.
