sabotabbyVirginia governor declares Confederate History Month. What? Really?
The Catholic Church knowingly dumped pedophile priests in remote native villages in Alaska, because, hey, who could stop them?
The Afghan torture hearings continue, but don't think that you get to hear about it.
Speaking of which, remember when we invaded Afghanistan to drive out the Taliban and bring in democracy? LOL.
The Ontario government continues not to do anything about the mercury contamination in Grassy Narrows, the result of the Dryden Pulp & Paper Co. dumping 9,000 kg of mercury into the Wabigoon River.
This is just chilling to listen to. Some radio asshats making jokes about starvation in Haïti.
The same high school that cancelled prom rather than let Constance McMillen bring her girlfriend did something even worse to another kid. 16-year-old Juin Baize was kicked out on his first day of class, and his family was eventually forced to relocate to Florida to protect his safety, just for being transgendered.
Cats at the Toronto Humane Society are in danger of being euthanized if homes are not found for them by April 12.
