“Shooting Reported at Maryland High School: 'Parents Please DO NOT Respond to the School'”

Not to mention a student was shot dead in an Alabama school a couple weeks ago.

I guess Parkland wasn’t the last one, after all.

Northern white rhino: Last male Sudan dies in Kenya - BBC News

Great news for Elph. The last white male dies in Kenya.

When are we as a world just going to tell the Chinese that their quack witch doctor medicine is horse **** and it's over and we're not going to tolerate beliefs that are turning Africa into a charnel house?

And also **** Donald Trump Jr. just to be fair and balanced.

Now that it’s broken North American and Europe have been getting smashed with an onslaught of one crazy blizzard after another. Power bills have been skyrocketing all up and down the American east coast (even into Florida). Of course, populations burning more fuel to stay warm is releasing more carbon into the atmosphere. Plus, there’s ****tons of carbon locked under the melting arctic.

Meanwhile it doesn’t look like Puerto Rico will return to full electricity and running water before the next hurricane season. And if Puerto Rico is barely making the news anymore imagine how ****ed they are in Haiti and Cuba. We’re better off than they are but Floridians and residents of the Gulf Coast simply can’t afford yearly hurricane evacuations that are starting to feel like clockwork.

I get all my news from ONN: it's the source you can trust.

Unfortunately, non-scientific/pseudoscientific “medicine” has become a big problem in the West. They may not be snorting rhino horns in Oregon but they’re stupid enough.

Science illiteracy is a big problem.

I remember watching a news report in Japan when they reporting on presidential candidates stating they did not believe in evolution. The news analysts had shock and pity in their eyes.

Sheriff: 1 student dead, 2 wounded in Maryland high school

Right now it looks like the shooter himself is the only fatality

Free speech row as Scots 'Nazi dog' film maker found guilty of being grossly offensive online | HeraldScotland

Quote:

THE SCOT who trained his dog to respond to his calls of "gas the Jews" has been found guilty of posting an offensive message online.

Sheriff Derek O'Carroll found Mark Meechan guilty of communicating a video which was "grossly offensive".

The Meechan case became an international freedom of speech talking point after his video titled M8 Yer Dugs A Nazi was posted two years ago.

Among those criticising the verdict was award-winning comedy writer and performer Ricky Gervais who said: "A man has been convicted in a UK court of making a joke that was deemed 'grossly offensive'.

"If you don't believe in a person's right to say things that you might find 'grossly offensive', then you don't believe in Freedom of Speech."
