...that's crap. that whole article is crap. you don't know what it is to be a Muslim and you don't know what it entails. The Quran is up for interpretion, it does not have to be taken literally, like making war on your neighbors, ok? Islam is not still in the year 1427- it might be according to the lunar calendar, which they abide by, as well as the Judeo-Christian calendar, but they have progressed. True, we're not allowed to translate the Quran so as not to leave out or misinterpret words that are lost in translation, but Muslims in general, as a whole, have progressed with time. Women are free to divorce, wear what they want- head coverings are OPTIONAL- it's just that some Muslims countries enforce laws for them to be required, which IMO is not politically correct. The 3 Abrahamic religions are VERY MUCH alike, the one main thing that seperates Christianity from Judaism and Islam is that they accept Jesus as the son of God, and therefore their savior. Islam is not a "militant, angry religion"-- it is only those radicals who skew the true religion who are angry and militant. Why has Islam suddenly become the scapegoat for everything?

lol! they probably thought you were a wacko when they opened up the package and saw that. lmao :D:D

GREEN BAY, Wis. - Two 17-year-olds suspected of plotting a shooting spree at their school were fascinated with the mass killings at Columbine High School and had homemade bombs and weapons at their homes, investigators said Friday. The boys were arrested Thursday at East High School after a student went to an associate principal. A detective said Friday that one boy wanted to enact the plan Thursday but the other talked him out of it. "If someone hadn't come forward, we'd be talking about funerals instead of charges," said Brown County District Attorney John Zakowski. William C. Cornell and Shawn R. Sturtz were arrested for suspicion of conspiracy to commit first-degree intentional homicide and conspiracy to commit arson. Zakowski said he planned to file charges next Thursday. Court Commissioner Jane Sequin ordered each teen jailed on $500,000 bond Friday. Police Detective Tom Molitor testified that both teens, who are seniors, told police that they had been plotting the massacre for several years. They planned to set off bombs near bathrooms, light the exits on fire with jelled gasoline so no one could escape and shoot people they had problems with, Molitor said. Police found nine rifles and shotguns, a handgun, about 20 "crudely made" explosive devices, camouflage clothing, gas masks, two-way radios and hundreds of rounds of ammunition at Cornell's house, Police Capt. Lisa Sterr said. She said Cornell had made several of the improvised explosive devices about two months ago. At Sturtz's home, police found knives and ammunition, Sterr said. Police said they also found mannequin heads that appeared to have been used for target practice, and suicide notes. No dangerous materials were found at the school, Sterr said. The two teens had long been fascinated by the April 1999 Columbine massacre in Littleton, Colo., in which two students armed with guns, knives and bombs killed 12 classmates and a teacher before killing themselves, Sterr said. In Montreal on Wednesday, an attacker killed a student at Dawson College and wounded 20 others before killing himself. Kimveer Gill, 25, had dressed in a black trench coat like the Columbine shooters, posted online photos of himself with weapons and said he liked to play an Internet role game about the Columbine killings. Sturtz was described as being obsessed with pain and death, and both he and Cornell had been described as being depressed and hating school, according to Sterr. Sturtz had also just lost an Internet relationship with a girl, Sterr said. "Sturtz was very upset about this and became extremely enraged and (Wednesday) talked of soon attacking the school like Columbine," Sterr said. Molitor said the two just needed a triggering event to pull off their plan. "They were one bad day away from something happening," he said. Molitor said in the court hearing that Sturtz wanted to enact the plan on Thursday but Cornell talked him out of it. A student, Jason Burdick, 18, who said he considered both teens friends, described Sturtz as a "teddy bear" and a shy, quite kid. "He was nice to get along with. No fights or whatever," he said. "But he, like, turned." Burdick said Sturtz started watching documentaries and other programs about Columbine. "I think that is what kind of turned him," he said. "I didn't think anything of it. He just kind of joked around with it. You know, just talking." Burdick said he played war games once with Sturtz with BB guns. "I went over there one night and we had like little battles," he said. "It was just like a fun little sport." Felicia LaPere, 17, said Sturtz had a darker side and was into Goth culture. "But there was nothing suspicious about him that you would think he would try to do something like this," she said. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060915/ap_on_re_us/school_bombs we don't need to be chasing terrorists around the world when we've got some in our own backyard. :\ i can't believe this, how absolutely ridiculous. they probably got the bomb making info off the internet and it's legal for a household or anyone over 21 with a license to have firearms.

yeah, i just stuck my camera through the chain link fence and zoomed in. kara-woah, that's almost the exact same angle. i felt kinda bad about taking pictures, too. :( it was pretty depressing to see nothing there, i remember being able to turn the corner and see these huge amssive buildings and now...it's just not the same. it gets noticeably quieter in the general area when you're walking towards it.

:o that's proper bullshit right there. damn, such discord over school lunches of all things. what has this world come to? lol yay for freedom to eat whatever the hell i want to for lunch! although our nation's school food laws are becoming "healthier" too, so they're somewhat altering some stuff, but not too much. but my mom makes a mean sandwich, so i don't have anything to worry about. ;)
