    Turns out Black Lives Matter didn't kill that cop

    Surprised there isn't a thread on this. Back in September Joseph Gliniewicz was found dead from two gunshot wounds. Immediately conservative outlets and social media were flooded with claims that Black Lives Matter had sparked his murder by creating a war on cops. I had to unfriend some people...

    Can this possibly be true?

    There has been a disturbing rash of teens committing suicide over the past month because of bullying. The majority of the suicides were caused by ******** targeting these kids because they were gay. This led Dan Savage to put out a video, and request other do the same, describing how life gets...

    Moderated Invasion of privacy leads to teen suicide

    Private Moment Made Public, Then a Fatal Jump What these kids did was really, really ****ty. Too bad he jumped though. Only 18 and this wound would have healed if he could have just held out for a while.

    Ed Not tased, still dead

    Source: New York Post This situation, where I would have applauded the use of a taser, ended very sad :( Not sure about the father's stance though. It is understandable he want's to put the blame on someone, he just lost his son! But did the cops really attribute to Chukwudi's death?

    Merged Billy Joel's daughter attempts suicide (with homeopathic medication)

    Not surprisingly, she failed. I don't mean this to dismiss the serious problem of suicide among teens and young adults, and I feel very sorry for Alexa Ray Joel and her family. But you gotta think that this wasn't a serious attempt, or else, she knows nothing about homeopathy. I do...

    A fundy committed suicide.

    After work on Fridays I enjoy a few beers and a meal at my favorite watering hole here in town. A fundy lawyer used to come into several of the bars in town preaching the gospel and basically telling us we were going to hell if we didn't quit using alcohol. He was kicked out of every bar in...

    Did I do enough?

    I received a Facebook message from a friend of my downstairs neighbor this morning asking if I would check on him because she hadn't heard from him in a while.

    D.C. Madam -suicide -is this a CT salt lick or not?

    The recently convicted D.C. Madam has been found dead, hanging in a shed on her mother's property in Florida. Is this story not a draw for CT's to speculate upon?
