God Hates Fags and Dead Soldiers
observer-reporter.com | Submitted by: Zenphobia
"Among those attending the funeral were members of Patriot Guard Riders, a veterans motorcycle group that provides an escort and color guard at military funerals. Lately, the group has been serving another purpose, that of shielding family members from a Topeka, Kan., church whose members have been protesting at military funerals, saying soldiers are dying because God is angry with America's tolerance of homosexuality. About eight people from Westboro Baptist Church stood on the sidewalk across from the church, holding signs such as God Hates America and Thank God for Dead Soldiers. The Patriot Guard members stood with their backs to the protesters and held up a large tarp so Hunter's family would not have to see the protesters as they entered the church."

All hopped up on rape and murder
Dayton Daily News | Submitted by: oddser5050
"Glenn L. Benner II, a neighbor and friend, became an impulsive drug-abuser who committed a five-month spree of assaults in which he would rape then choke his victims, killing two. His crimes have been described as pure evil and the work of some wicked angel of Satan." ... "Bowser's family is unhappy with the appeals process that has delayed Benner's sentence for so long. They also have another complaint: only three seats at the execution for four brothers who want to witness the death of their baby sister's killer."

Mother Russia running low on precious fluids
CNN | Submitted by: efgkt
"Russians could suffer a shortage of their national tipple next week because a bureaucratic mix-up has brought every vodka distillery in the country to a halt, producers say. Distillers have been waiting since January 1 for tax authorities to send them new excise stamps -- the anti-counterfeit stickers that by law must be attached to every bottle of vodka."

Use of Force
San Francisco Chronicle | Submitted by: Cockfighter
"For years, the San Francisco Police Department has failed to control officers who repeatedly resort to force, hitting, choking, clubbing and pepper-spraying citizens at rates far higher than fellow officers who patrol the same streets. Walking to work, partying at a club, taking in a ballgame - residents of San Francisco and visitors to the city have learned painfully that force often is the first option for these officers."
