I got a good chuckle from this article; it reminds me of the huge growing operation that was discovered in the Mat-Su Valley a few years back. Neighbors were complaining that a series of flood lights were interfering with their ability to sleep. When the owners refused to turn them off or even compromise, the neighbors called the police. The police found a commercial growing operation and made a huge bust.

some people just want to get caught. Because the neighbours called the police to complain about the light, the police was legally in the place and able to discover the MJ in plain view.

Police today are searching for three suspects after 19 people, including two children, were shot in New Orleans on Sunday while watching a Mother's Day parade.

I think it is scary to know that we almost can't feel safe anywhere we go. Anymore you hear about shootings in places that you should feel safe to go like a store, a movie, a parade, a marathon, school, etc. These aren't bad people getting hurt, they are our neighbors, our family, and our friends that are experiencing horrible things when doing simple chores or fun activities. I really enjoy hearing that they are standing up against this. Letting the "bad guys" know that they are going to protect and take back control of the area. There are still good people out there!

Such a tragic story, and they are both so young. I cannot imagine the families devastation. I am curious though about what led the brother to his actions, perhaps mental illness will turn out to be a factor.

I find it absolutely ridiculous that a form of personal technology is so tightly safe-guarded that even within legal means the process to obtain information takes so long, if it is even possible. What happened to the good ole days of simply being able to tap into a phone line?
Rob Duke's comment,

I assume that Apple restricts this ability to a few employees, thus the long wait. I worry that we'll begin to lose data under these conditions. For instance, if a phone is linked to a Pirate Bay account or even something as benign as dropbox, all data may be remotely erased simply by allowing the phone to connect to a network.

Authorities in rural Los Angeles County were warning people to be on the lookout for four pit bulls suspected of killing a 63-year-old jogger Thursday, and they have seized several dogs in a search for those who may have taken part in the attack.

Not really sure how I feel about sending children to school with body armor? The fact that this is even being consider is extremely sad. However, children need to be safe and while many states are taking drastic measures to further gun control measures especially in schools, it's nice to know that the kids will be at least safer, even if they're still sitting ducks.

I have been attacked and bitten two times while conducting police business. I had a gun with me but use Mace instead of my weapon. I never wanted to kill someone’s dog. If the situation got to the point where I believed my life was in danger and would not hesitate to shoot to kill. This is a terrible tragedy and the dogs need to be destroyed. I walk 5 miles every day in a remote area in Alaska and I always have my gun with me. I see moose all the time I have seen 2 bears in the past. I feel a lot safer with my weapon.

This is such a complicated topic; how to punish the mentally ill. Personally, someone who gathers ammo and guns and comes prepared is someone who isn't mentally ill. He had a plan and he executed it. It would be a different story is he just showed up to watch the movie and then all of a sudden wiped out a weapon and start killing. I guess the other question is how do you punish those suffering from mental disorders. Just because you have a problem doesn't mean you shouldn't get punished. Whether mentally ill or sane; this man needs a punishment to fit the crime.

SALT LAKE CITY (ABC 4 News) - A citizen with a gun stopped a knife wielding man as he began stabbing people Thursday evening at the downtown Salt Lake City Smith's store.

A man with the gun is a hero. If everyone carried a gun there be a lot less robberies. The man with the gun probably saved a number of people from injury or death including his own.

I think this is a great article to prove how carrying weapons would help prevent or lessen crime; not make it worse. As a women, especially, I am all about making sure that I and my family are protected. If that man didn't come, many more people could have gotten injured or even killed.
Jessica Bell's comment,

This story should be among others to show society that a gun among other weapons can show positive output and not always be harmful. The citizen could have easily shot the person stabbing the victims but he used it to stop the stabber without causing harm to anyone in the process. I was reading the story and was thinking that he used it to wound the stabber to stop him but the stabber cooperated where in other cases could have gone differently. This man came at the right place at the right time and prevented what could have been an angry rampage from the stabber that could have caused many injured or killed.

Ah! More innovation. Seek marijuana grows from the air and growers find a cross between Sativa and Indica that allows them to grow MJ indoors. Subpoena electricity records and growers run power cords.
