ezs note: The general rule is the more you try to "fix" things, the more they get messed up.   If you haven't done so already, see a competent therapist, then get your life in order.  It doesn't matter whether your'e in an Australian rock band member or the former governor of New Jersey, (or anyone else) get help now!

ezs note:  Wow.  Mayor Cameron Hamilton, you are, undoubtedly, this year's Asshole of the Year.  I rest my case.

In memory of the 103+....

103 people.  103 human beings. Yesterday, they were alive.  Today, they are gone.  All from the brutality of merciless, savage, vermin.

In reality, though, the people who needlessly were murdered are but a small sliver of the total number.  Out of  230+ countries in the world, only fourteen even bother to keep track of the numbers!

As Secretary-General Ban-Ki Moon would so eloquently put it, this is reprehensible.
