Shocking photo created a hero, but not to his family

      So this article was about a young man in 1961 who was part of the first ever freedom rider bus trip. When the bus arrived in the segregated south, the young man (James Zwerg) had offered to get of the bus first and ended up doing so. Waiting for him and the 18 others was a large racial mob who then beat the crap out of the Freedom Riders.
      After some time the police managed to rescue the Freedom riders and rushed them to nearby hospitals. Hospitalized with several broken vertabrae and fractured teeth as well as nummerous bruises, James told a camera crew who came to his room, "We will continue our journey, one way or another. We are prepared to die." This was put in the news papers and later became a summoning call to more Freedom Riders.
      Thi article shows a lot of bravery and courage. I know for a fact that i would never get of a bus knowing that a mob of people armed with bats, chains, and clubs are mad enough at me to tear my guts out with a pitchfork. I think i would rather die than endure such beating and torture. What do you think?

SEALS team unnoticed in hometown.

      So the Navy Seals who killed Bin Laden dont even get recognition for doing so. In fact they are not even allowed to mention to their own familys that they were involved with Bin Ladens death.
      I think that this makes sense but then it doesnt. It makes sense because the Navy SEALS are under an oath of secrecy and that applies to everything. Also there lives would be endangered if terrorist supporters knew who they are and wanted revenge.
      It doesnt make sense because these heroes deserve the recognition and if they dont get it some general who stayed at a desk during the operation will claim the fame for himself. What do you think?

Sony apologizes for PlayStation breach, offers compensation

      So you probably know that 77 million online playstation users' personal data was hacked. i think this is big especially since the hacker know has these peoples credit card information.
      Now Sony is offering them a free 30 days of online plus as compensation for their frusturation. So some idiot might have all of their personal info as well as their creit card number and thats all they get.
      I think that this is pretty retartarded. I mean, personally, if someone had my credit card number i would expect the person in charge of the internet securityto give me more than just another form of advertisement designed to get me hooked on their system.

Inside zombie brains: Sci-fi teaches science

      Wow so basically this CNN article is about how zombies could exist. The guy who figured this out is a doctor who graduated Harvard and other prestigous medical schools. He has published a zombie apocolypse book using his theories.
      He said that a virus could be genetically engineered that deteriorates the brain so that only the part that controls the basic body functions, such as eating and breathing, remains. Therefore the infected body can no longer reason or think logically. The only thing that it thinks about is survival, in other words it only thinks of food and because the part of the brain that tells a human when it has eaten enough is deteriorated it doesnt ever stop eating. Also the part of the brain that deals with cordination is gone so it has a hard time walking. A mathmatician  figured out that if one Zombie was released in a city with a population of 500,000, it would take only 7 days for everyone to be either killed or transformed into a zombie.
      Sooo, umm i think that this is very creepy and terrifying. I mean sitting on a couch at home and killing zombies in Call of Duty is one thing but this is something totally different. I would be TERRIFIED!!!!!!!!!!! What do you think?

Tax filers take out frustration on "IRS car

      Ok so basically its a bunch of tax payers, who just got done filling their taxes, beating up on an old car that has IRS spray painted on it. WIERD!!!!!!
      So umm i think that these people need to see a psychiatrist or a counsler cause there are definetly better ways to vent steam than pounding on an old rusty car. Secondly, all the "frusturated and hyped up" tax payers who said the were gonna destroy the car, really didnt do all that good of a job. They just managed to put some dents on the outside of it.
      i think this was just a hoax to get more bussiness for the company liberty tax. What do you think?

Search for missing woman expands as police look for serial killer

      Well the missing womens name is Shanon and she did escort services. In other words she was a prostitute. She was "doing bussiness with a client" when she reportedly ran out into the street, called 911 and told them someone was trying to hurt her. when the police arrivved more than 30 mnutes later, she was gone. Shanon has not been seen since. this happened in May of 2010.
      The search for Shanon has led to the discovery of the corpses of 8 more disapeared women. Four of them have been identified. Shanons sister no longer believes that her sister is alive but says even if she is never found there were positive results. She was refering to the discovery of the dead bodies. Due to the fact that the bodies of the other women were found relativly close to each other, investigators believe they are dealing with a serial killer.
      So first off i think that you should not be a prostitute in the first place. Second, why did it take police more than half an hour to get there? Thats pretty slow.  I think that if i knew that there was a serial killer in my nieghbor hood i would not go in any dark alleys or anything, i would stay in public.i really hope they catch the guy but considering that they have no clues what-so-ever, Id say the the chances are pretty slim. What do you think?

Southwest cancels 70 more flights as inspections continue

      So what happened was that a plane headed toward sacremanto California just suddenly had a huge hole in fuselage. This caused the cabin to depresureize and the plane started to fall apart. sunlight reportedly shone threw the roof  and every one was terifyed. right now south west is checking every one of its planes for simular problems.
      When i read this i was thinking, "how does a maintenence crew miss the cracks that caused the hole to apear?" The answer is that the plane had not been checked regularly as is required by the FAA. THE PLANE WAS SEVERAL MONTHS OVER DUE FOR MAINTENANCE!!!!!!!!!!! The result of this neglectance was the endagerment of more than 200 lives.
      Southwest airlines acted like it was no big deal. All they did was give the passengers a free round trip flight for the next time they travel and urged them to take advantage of their CHEAP, SAFE and COMFORTABLE flights. there is only one word that describes this flight agency. IDIOTS!!!!!!!!! I mean if i was on a plane that almost wrecked and knew that three other planes from the same company had simular cracks in the fuselages, im not gonna fly with them again. What do you think???
