• CORPORATIONS: Microsoft Pushes For Gay Marriage In Washington State

  OMG a corporation doing something for the public good {besides selling us widgets we need}.  It’s sad, but this. is. news.  It really shouldn’t be. This is how they should normally act. They should all use their influence to make the world better, not worse.

• ABUSE OF AUTHORITY: 68-year-old woman’s arm broken because she couldn’t get out of her pulled over vehicle fast enough, because she had to put on a foot brace

  Do you have a foot injury?
  Do you have a language barrier?
  Are you not Caucasian?

  Then a great deal of people think it’s completely valid for an officer to pull you over, and break your arm.

  Don’t believe me? Just read the assholes commenting on this article.

  I think the lawsuit isn’t asking for nearly enough.
