Here's two pieces of news to tick you off. First a 92 year old woman was shot and killed by police in Atlanta when she responded to their raid on her home by shooting. Why did she shoot? Maybe because strange men NOT wearing police uniforms banged on her door and said they were the cops, and then broke the door down. Why in god's name should she have believed them. Assuming she's not really a criminal, she would ahve no reason to expect cops to break down her door, and the only other possibility there is that her life is in danger. As it turns out, she was right. These kinds of raids need to be stopped. It's not just that innocent people get hurt, but that the authorities then apologize for the mistake, don't punish anyone, nothing changes, and it happens again.

The other story is that some Muslim dude in Colorado was just sentenced for having a slave. He said he wasn't doing anything illegal since slavery is all good under Muslim law, despite the fact that he is living in the US under our laws. The Saudi's are really upset, and instead of telling them, "Too bad, we don't allow slavery here," we sent a diplomat over their to appease them. We need to make it clear to the world that the US will follow sharia law about the time the Moon and the Sun take a day off and go visit Jupiter for tea.
