Missing Teen Hannah Anderson Rescued After FBI Shoots and Kills Her Kidnapper

Wrote about this case Thursday at Viral Read and Friday here, and now there’s good news in the case: A massive manhunt that spanned 1,000 miles ended in gunfire in the Idaho wild late Saturday afternoon — shots that ended the life of the family friend who was suspected of abducting 16-year-old Hannah Anderson and […]

WRONG. WRONG. WRONG.

OK, the story that was here is gone. Having heard from the girl in the photo, who made it clear that I misread her “SlutWalk DC” protest sign, I decided that a mere correction was insufficient.

Is the Mother of a Convicted Drug Dealer Running the #FreeKate Facebook Page?

It’s been nearly a month since I’ve written anything about accused sex offender Kaitlyn Hunt, whose supporters seem to think there should be a “lesbian loophole” in statutory rape laws. The “Free Kate” movement has undergone a substantial meltdown since the glory days of May, when Kaitlyn was featured on the Today show, before the facts […]

Behold, the antonym of honesty speaks! In an interview with the Daily Beast published Friday, Rep. Charlie Rangel (D-NY) suggested Tea Partiers are the “same group” who fought for segregation during the Civil Rights movement. “It is the same group we faced in the South with those white crackers and the dogs and the police.
