Les,

It’s been 5 years since this post, and I’m still getting hits from it.
Not search hits, but actual direct hits from your blog post, this blog post, to my blog.
The link to the article/story in your post, is no longer valid, so not really sure why I’m getting so many hits from this post this week.
This is the 7th hit from this post in the last 5 days.
At first I thought it was odd, now I’m starting to be weirded out. LoL

Have no clue just how you drew that conclusion GM.

What I did was blame religion for the sheer and complete lack of common sense that a thinking reasoning logical mind should be capable of, Nothing more.
A human being that “believes” wholeheartedly in mythology & magic, the “Super-Natural” lacks common sense, is diametrically opposed to Thinking and reasoning & throws all logic happily right out the window.

“Gansta Rap” in the context that I used it was nothing but one of many possible influences for young minds to identify with. Which in my view is not a positive one by any stretch of the imagination.

Of course it would have happened, they simply would have beaten her with that too

Only if it was a leatherbound King James.  Those Gideon pieces of shite are too lightweight for any serious Bible-thumping.

I think I read a comment by “geekmom” about how if they had a bible in their house this probably wouldn’t have happened. Of course it would have happened, they simply would have beaten her with that too

Nunya, did I really just see you try to blame RELIGION for “gangsta rap”???

Dude, you need a Prozac vacation in the worst way.

Some of this type of behavior is brought on somewhat because even “good” parents which these obviously are NOT have their hands tied behind their backs by social services.
Kids nowadays have the upper hand and they know it.

Odds are BTW that these so called “Parents” are a by-product of their parents lack of being able to control THEM.
It’s a culmination of many factors, low wages, high taxes, high prices, force BOTH parents to work, assuming there are 2 parents in the first place, If you’re a single parent it’s worse yet making ends meet, combine that with the child’s ability to lead a parent around by the nose & the pure garbage they identify with and this is what you get.

This type of behavior was very rare 50+ years ago, parents had control, kids weren’t “Identifying” with such trash as “Gansta Rap” etc.

Could religion have something to do with it? you bet.

Take away the ability of most adults to Think & Reason logically & you set the stage for ignorance to take over.
Religion does that in spades.

Hey Randall I just want to coment that the devil does not have a pretty good knowing of the bible he knows the bible better than anyone really.

I managed to dig up another shorter news item about it.

The link to the story is no longer working. Does anyone have a link to a different article on it? After reading all of your comments, I’m very curious to read what happened. Thanks!

What is this world coming to? I’m a 15 year old living in a world where children are nearly killing others because of…a kiss? Thank god the little girl is getting better. Justice needs to be served to stop this from happening.
I dealed with a similar situation a while ago concerning my younger brother who is 10. He was kicked a few times by this older and stronger slab of meat who was encouraged by his MOTHER to attack my brother! I mean wtf is going on in her mind to tell her son to beat up my little brother. Parents like these are animals and should be not allowed to take care of their children. Children are the future leaders and what will happen when they grow up with the hate that is in abusive homes?
