Lol

and i often type, like right now, on my cell phone. I am lazy when it comes to using this thing, so no, i dont hit the button to bring up the symbol screen to find an apostrophe....and i never have fooled with capitalizing.

No worries, you wouldn't understand my posts if you could see them anyway.

I'm surprised that Mom, who is getting called a hero, isn't getting more backlash for beating the living hell out of her son.

Not that he didn't deserve it, but that seemed way aggressive and if someone would have seen that in a normal environment, it could have been considered child abuse!

Except the reason for him catching a beating, throwing rocks at cops, seemed just.

But you're right I'm surprised many aren't suggesting the kid should have been given a time out.

Had the cops beat him like his mother did we would have had another riot.

The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral,
begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy.
Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it.
Through violence you may murder the liar,
but you cannot murder the lie, nor establish the truth.
Through violence you may murder the hater,
but you do not murder hate.
In fact, violence merely increases hate.
So it goes.
Returning violence for violence multiplies violence,
adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness:
only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.

It's such a white liberal cliché to say you loved The Wire, but holy cow, I did love that show (finally watched it last year). In this interview he's smart and insightful, as always.
