Tim Norkus Love stories like this. Always wish this sort of topic would stick near the top of the main page! Thank you for sharing!
Tim Norkus He didn't really order #3 killed, just collateral damage from trying to kill #1.
Tim Norkus If there are racial tensions, are they mad at all blacks or just black muslims, or maybe it is muslims of any race?
Tim Norkus I don't think the reasons are political at all, look at the attack above, motivated by religion. What caused us to have an active military presence?
Tim Norkus I'm sure the people watching felt terrorized, I don't know?
Tim Norkus http://www.policymic.com/articles/35527/boston-marathon-attack-we-must-avoid-intolerance-in-bombing-aftermath/465071 I think it came up in the comments, someone tried to post a link comparing some non-violents "terrorist" acts to one's where people actually die.
Tim Norkus Let me try and find it, someone wrote an article about it on here a couple weeks back.
Tim Norkus Of course, I guess I should have noted that comment was filled heavily with sarcasm.
Tim Norkus It's like you knew my wife was out of town all week and I would be taking care of my 2 year old alone.
Tim Norkus According to some on the site, Islamic terrorists only make up a small percentage of world-wide terrorism, so this really shouldn't be news.
Tim Norkus "People who voluntarily engage in behavior with known risks should not be permitted to absolve themselves of the predictable consequences for financial or social reasons. Their "choice" was actually made before pregnancy occurred." Everything you said is correct, but it is the same reason's I am pro-choice, it is not just the Mother/Father who suffer the consequences, it is you, me and all of society. In getting pregnant with a child they don't want, they have already made one bad decision, imagine how many more will be made once the child is born.
Tim Norkus This is one of the main reasons I am a pro-choice conservative. The last thing I want is a person caring for a child they never wanted, usually bad things will happen from there. You could easily make the case that a decent percentage of people shouldn't be allowed to have children, but that is another argument for another day.
Tim Norkus It would have been the perfect thing to have, I am just saying the argument was going to be made sooner or later. And I agree with your last paragraph.
Tim Norkus In before someone says she should have had a gun to protect herelf.
Tim Norkus Great for Helen Mirren, and I think her portryal is more than ethically acceptable. I pull stuff like this all the time with my 2 year old. I am just glad Helen Mirren made time to bring a little happiness to this boy's life.
Tim Norkus Who comes up with these laws in the first place? It is a crime for a 18 year old to be with a 15 year, but a 23 year old with a 16 year old is all good?
Tim Norkus Awesome story, thanks for sharing.
Tim Norkus I have never worked at ESPN, but I did spend a couple years grinding it out at Fox Sports Net. ESPN to this point has little competition. I know Fox Sports is going to make another run at it, but I doubt it will come close to matching the worldwide leader. I would be more interested to know where those 4,000 jobs are coming from. I have no doubt there is some waste that needs to be cleaned out, like most companies.
Tim Norkus How does any school in Oklahoma not have a tornado shelter?
Tim Norkus I've posted this a bunch since I came to Policymic. I work in a massive collision repair center in Denver. We always have trouble finding kids to fill positions at our shop. We currently have 3-4 kids in their early 20's making $100K+ a year without a college degree. They did start with some debt coming out of tech school, but they all paid it off within 18 months.
Tim Norkus As sick as this sounds but the more carnage and death, the more coverage. So trying to compare this event to others with multiple death's seems a little off base.
Tim Norkus The match fixing scandal is a big one. The all-German UCL, meh, there is a final every year, and David Beckham will be remembered in the US for years to come.
Tim Norkus Employer Paying Fine
Tim Norkus I was so excited and sad at the same time, I don't have any other shows I like, so it was really the end of an era for me. My wife and I have a TV in our bedroom that is not hooked up to cable, so we only watch DVD's up there. We put in the DVD from Season 1 and started from scratch. Ryan's first day, Dwight's stuff in Jello, the introduction of characters.
Tim Norkus Was it supposed to be Kelly's husband or just a boyfriend? I have always thought the show needed more Creed, so last night was great. Was a little dissapointed to see Steve Carrell not lend his time to the retrospective. I don't watch a ton of TV outside of sports, and this is really the only show I have ever grown attached too.
