Maybe I'm Amazed by the ignorance of some people in the above post by 43...

I know. Ain't that a shame?

Well, I guess we should just live and let die...

3 hour morning commute today! All I want to do is go home but I don't feel like making the drive yet.

If you start now, you might be home by dinner time.

Not yet but perhaps soon. I have been given the OK to leave early and work from home for a bit to miss the afternoon rush hour.

Glad too, I don't want a repeat of this morning. You know how hard it is to drive 2 mph while urinating out the window? Not easy.

Just remember to check your blind spots when changing lanes.

BBC News - Charlie Hebdo: Gun attack on French magazine kills 12

I really hope that they don't change their approach after this...

This attack was apparently over a bunch of cartoons.

Yes, cartoons.

Yes, cartoons.

Yes. And some of the cartoons were several years old.

Fucking Twats.

I just can't understand the concept, I suppose. Some of those cartoons were 100% offensive...I mean, one depicts the Holy Trinity in a three way. Yeah, as a Christian, that doesn't sit well with me. But, per usual as a non-extremist, I just can't understand the mentality of killing because of it. A drawing. A DRAWING. And now some other agencies are getting crap for not showing the images (like the AP), but it's hard to fault them. There's a fuzzy line there between fundamentals and beliefs, and protecting those who work for you. Apparently a Jewish magazine in the UK was given crap for blurring out the images, and the editor had to say (paraphrase) "even though everything I believe in tells me to do this, I have no right to risk the lives of my staff." Just...ridiculous. To be killed for a drawing.

First things first: I have no desire whatsoever for this to devolve into a political/gun control discussion. That's not the point that I'm making.

That out of the way, it drives me nuts when people can't even wait for the proverbial dust to settle before trying to exploit a tragedy for political gain. In this case, Donald Trump and the killings in Paris.

Only a few hours after news breaks of the situation, he Tweets a condolences message. OK so far, right? ONE MINUTE LATER he takes a shot at Obama. Some 30 minutes after that, a series of tweets about how gun control is bad.

FFS, a dozen people are dead.

He should save time and just tweet "Look at me!" over and over.

The Trumpster makes the average Twit look like a fucking Rhodes' Scholar.

When that lunatic went on a rampage killing cops in New Brunswick we heard similar things. It drives me nuts too.
