Serial Pooper in Houston

Quote:

The neighborhood of Woodland Heights in Houston, Texas has an unwelcome visitor who has repeatedly defecated in the yards, and more often driveways, of several residents. The ‘serial pooper,’ as some have described the man, has even targeted one particular house six times.

Combine this post with your avatar that looks like a log in water and I get lulz.

The results could even be released as an avant-garde musical piece. 'Exploding guitars from China' by The Feds.

Genius!

Gonna need lots of reverb.

BBC News - Sudan woman faces death for apostasy

Quote:

"We gave you three days to recant but you insist on not returning to Islam. I sentence you to be hanged to death," the judge told the woman, AFP reports.
Since it's their religion, we must respect it. #TheReligionOfPeace

People can say what they want about Islamaphobia, and it's certainly a problem don't get me wrong, but Christians haven't executed anybody for heresy or apostasy for quite a while now. Sudan and Afghanistan = balls.

Don't forget beating her because Islamic law doesn't agree with her marriage.

But it is a religion and it is their religious belief. We must respect it and not criticise it :).

Stupid idea. Why on Earth would I have respect for a religion, or any religion, when I have no respect for the concept at all? If I have to live in a world created by religious folk then I have a right to criticize it. If I have to live in a state where gays can't get married because of a bunch of people's "personal" beliefs, then they are no longer just personal.

She should just change her religion, then she'd be off the hook.
