Was just on the fb page of one of the affiliates up in Austin. Apparently they pronounced Gosnell's sentence already.
"Wait...they weren't supposed to start deliberations on it til next week! How is this possible?" you ask?
Well my first thought was that maybe he waived the jury option and threw himself on the mercy of the judge...then I remembered Gosnelll called the judge a racist bastards so that left that out. Then I read the article.
Apparently either Gosnell told his attorney or his attorney convinced Gosnell to let the attorney go to the prosecutors and let the attorney bargain with them. The bargain? Gosnell would waive ALL RIGHT to an appeal if they'd take the Death Penalty off the table. Apparently the prosecutors office went for it.
So Gosnell was sentenced to 2 life sentences without possibility of parole. Now, while I'm not thrilled with his deal I understand the reasoning behind accepting it.
Gosnell with all the appeals would be long dead of old age anyway before sentence could be carried out. I know this to be a realistic possibility because there are some old fuckers here in Texas on Death Row that have been there since it's inception. Put it this way...their prisoner numbers are double and triple digits as opposed to the mix of numerals and numbers it's been for years and years now. They've been in THAT long.
Now according to my old man who I chatted with briefly about this with a few minutes ago said that if that's the case, shit just may get real interesting. Roe V. Wade interesting.. According to some of the analysts it's possible conservatives may get their shit together and go to the United States Supreme Court [USSC] and try and get Roe V, Wade overturned and tossed out. One of their star witnesses if they do this could probably be Gosnell himself and he'd testify in front of the USSC against Roe V. Wade. That abortion is infanticide, murder on a grand scale because babies are viable human beings long before they leave the womb. evidence? video of a late term aborted baby that was cut out of it's mother swimming round in a toilet bowl before it died, ultrasound pictures of babies in the womb[and how many of us haven't seen those..one my friends just put up one of her unborn child sucking it's thumb.] so on and so forth.
I said I'd post this here to keep one of my favorite other forums away from what's considered an issue we never discuss[or as we call it a tarpit issue] because it just leads to lots of hatred, vitriol, discontent, bannings and the occasional member leaving in a towering rage and never coming back.
I understand there's going to be hard or tumultuous feelings and a shitpot full of cussing probably going on during this discussion if you choose to have it here. So being that I cuss a lot I'll tolerate quite a bit of cussing from others in this, or any other discussion. And I'll freely grant leniency up to a point on the tumultuous feelings. However...I WILL delete your ass if you go too far. Attack the opposing argument...NOT the poster of the opposing argument. Do I make myself Clear?
I can't heearrrrrr yoooouuuuuu! I said.. DO I MAKE MY SELF ABSOLUTELY MOTHER FUCKING CLEAR!
Good...feel free to discuss. Now return to your corners and await the ringing of the bell...
*DING!*
Remember..TANSTAAFL and...
I now return you to your regularly scheduled inanity and insanity.

Zero Tolerance strikes again Or..
The low IQ boys destroy a budding young scientist. *FACEPALM!*Yep the Curly Wolf is back and in fine fettle. Sorry folks family issues and then multiple other sidetracks took precedence. I do apologize for the lack of posts for the last month and change. Anyway...on to the issue at hand.

Okay found that other link!
An honor student. An eagle scout...2 WEEKS from graduating. Now? The kid forgot he'd left the unloaded shotgun in the truck and tried to do the right thing. For that he's been expelled for a year so he's got to wait 12 months so he can finish 2 WEEKS and graduate. On top of that he's been arrested and charged with a felony[having a gun on school grounds] Guess some animals are more equal than others though because a school administrator at that same school brought a loaded gun to school and left it in her car. What happened to her? 3 days suspension. Anyone else see the cognitive dissonance here Shades of Animal Farm and 1984 This is all pure unadulterated bullshit. neither of these kids should be going through what they're going through because school admins and school policies are dumber than cows chewing cud in the field. Time and past time to slaughter these particular cows me thinks and have a barbeque.
here's the link for the Eagle Scout student.

Update 4pm central.
It appears like Cole is going to get to go to the college he wanted to. He wasn't originally going to be able to go because he couldn't afford it. Chancellor of Liberty University, saw Cole's story, did some digging and then contacted Cole. The Chancellor was impressed with Cole told him they'd do whatever was necessary to make sure he got to come to Liberty University for his education. to quote the chancellor's statement. It's a $160,000 "full ride" scholarship
“Anti-gun zealots tried to vilify him for doing the right thing, so Liberty has decided to award him the help he needs to attend a private Christian college. I was really impressed with Cole. He is a humble and meek Christian kid who only wants to do the right thing! We want students like Cole Withrow."
Absolutely beeee yoo tiful! LOL

"A Florida teen with an exemplary record is facing federal charges
after conducting what a classmate calls “a science project gone bad."
What did she do? she mixed a couple household chemicals in a water bottle to try and make, I think...a smoke bomb.
"16-year-old Kiera Wilmot is accused of mixing housing chemicals in a small water bottle at Bartow High School, causing the cap to fly off and produce a bit of smoke. The experiment was conducted outdoors, no property was damaged, and no one was injured. Not long after Wilmot’s experiment, authorities arrested her and charged her with “possession/discharge of a weapon on school property and discharging a destructive device,” according to WTSP-TV. The school district proceeded to expel Wilmot for handling the “dangerous weapon,” also known as a water bottle. She will have to complete her high school education through an expulsion program"
So...a kid decides to experiment, to test, to open her mind...and they destroy her for it? Lets look a the charge. BY the way these charges mean they are charging her as an adult.
Florida statute 790.115 lists Possession/discharge of a weapon on school grounds is a 3rd degree FELONY carrying a maximum $5000 fine and a prison term of up to 5 years. with the 2nd charge of discharge of a destructive device that's ANOTHER fine and another possible 5years in prison!
so for being an inquisitive child, for conducting an experiment...they are going to possibly send her to PRISON for 10yrs.
There was a time this would not have phased anyone. people would build home made rockets and make home made rocket fuel and launch rockets to conduct experiments. JESUS JUMPING H CHRIST POGO STICKING ACROSS THE ROCKIES ON A CROSS, PEOPLE!! I built my own rocket for shop class in MIDDLE school in the early 90's and they provided the booster with the fuel in it, for crying out loud! I played with balloons and flammable gases. I thought up things in my mind and built/created them. I *gasp!* shot the odd rifle/pistol growing up. I built ramps for jumping bikes,......and ended up misjudging and landing in the tree on occasion. I learned to pop and ride wheelies and in the doing of it, I got injured, compressed my tail bone, concussed myself, bruised myself more than a bit. I had, and used a sling shot. I read lots of books and *GASP!!!* learned to think for my fucking self! Oh my god, the world is going to end.
Let us pray that the authorities and the school district come to their senses. Personally I doubt it. school administrators it seems, aren't known for having functioning brains with more than 4 brain cells to rub together and the school boards at this late stage in the game aren't much better me thinks.
Here's the link to this particular story...
