One of them is on my walk home--luckily, I never walk home at night. Here's one of them: http://www.uwosh.edu/news/?p=275 The other report was similar. There is at least one such report [night time assault, sometimes sexual, sometimes not] every semester around here, I think. We're a small city of 60,000 with 12,000 students attending the college.AnnMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05505967972774910106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21112957.post-20638510471894640192008-05-06T20:45:00.000-06:002008-05-06T20:45:00.000-06:00We went to an Obama Rally this Sunday (and got to ...We went to an Obama Rally this Sunday (and got to meet him up close and personal if you wanna check the story on my blog) and saw 2 great bumper stickers. One said "I am voting for a president, not a pastor" and one that said, "I don't agree with everything my pastor says either". Which is perfect since I work at my church, I decided against it.Sherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16598822471867683429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21112957.post-74677693735659893182008-05-06T16:29:00.000-06:002008-05-06T16:29:00.000-06:00We had a guy come to teach us self defense in high...We had a guy come to teach us self defense in high school. It was a big deal because it was free for all the girls in my year level. He explained that the reason he was doing it was because his sister had been jogging on a bike track near our school about a year earlier when a guy grabbed her, dragged her into the bushes and raped her with a metal pole before leaving her to die. That never made it on the news as the family wanted to keep those details private. <BR/><BR/>Because of what he said I will never walk at night wearing head phones. That's what made him choose her that night. That's my reason for being paranoid.<BR/><BR/>And that's just it, I have a reason to be paranoid and I think Rev. Wright does too. Regardless of those paranoid deductions being proven or not, doesn't mean they should be ignored.SassyCupcakeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06093736219562358428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21112957.post-30235833180382041132008-05-06T14:56:00.000-06:002008-05-06T14:56:00.000-06:00I believe it could be true.

I also believe that so many who suffer from AIDS in Africa now could be saved if the US wasn't refusing help.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16348025510436659447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21112957.post-59044434493522987202008-05-06T14:46:00.000-06:002008-05-06T14:46:00.000-06:00I believe it.

My uncle saw way too many things in Kenya that indicated there was a definite method of control involved with who contracted HIV and who didn't. Too many suspicious events.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497284693223622245noreply@blogger.com
