| So sad. I hope the community and these officers families my deepest condolences. That having been done I look to both the American and Canadian media and ask but one thing. Keep this nutjob and his message off your front pages. Focus on the victims don't give the killer a voice. He doesn't deserve it. |

It's so sad when you have such time on your hands that you can sit in front of a computer all day and actually focus your energy into hating people simply for wanting to have the s... |

| I know I haven't posted in a couple of pages but did you just seriously suggest people take on credit card debt for school? Back to class it's time to go and learn how quickly credit cards acquire interest and fees and how impossible they are to pay off. Oh wait that would actually be teaching somet... |

| If someone is crazy enough to say they wish for no real treatment that's OK but it's not OK to think a 10 year old should decide such a thing. However the threat of violence from this group tells me they deserve no future consideration in the matter and leadership should be reviewed. |

If this is such a huge problem for non Muslim customers the stores will go out of business. Problem solved Now if Muslims were calling for violence or issuing threats over businesses not bein... |

| Since we're okay with trying to force Russia to permit gay rights then when are we going to do the same with every Muslim-majority country? Why shouldn't a gay flag fly over the Kaaba in Mecca? Best damn use of a gay flag ever. Hell I'd salute that thing while eating a cheeseburger with bacon and a... |

| See here's the thing. People want to argue that raising the minimum wage would just increase inflation but that's only the case if more money enters into the economy. If no new money is printed there is no inflation. There is no good reason why employee wages can't be raised at some of the expense o... |

| Frankly if Russia wants to be retarded let them but if people want to be outraged it's no less valid. I think today gay rights in the symbolic measure of recent freedom trumping bigotry in much the same way the women's suffrage movement was a symbol of freedom in the early 20th century. This isn't a... |
