Not going to lie, the two times I have been to that hospital have been the worst hospital experiences of my life. So I'm not exactly surprised. The environment there is not a friendly one, especially in the Emergency Room -- you know, where people go when emergencies happen and are in need of care and not to be treated awfully.

I'm of the opinion that the Confederate flag is anti-American. Does that mean he doesn't have a right to fly it? No, certainly not.

But as someone who would vehemently defend his right to fly something so offensive to the United States as an established nation, I don't feel the nation should come to his aid in that regard.

tl;dr: the whole thing is BS.

WHAT. IS. WRONG. WITH. WASHINGTON.

I can't even describe my rage in words that this is in any way okay. You do not spend 3 months in jail for murder. You just DON'T. It's like every second news article I read is a description of someone being arrested who, at some point, MURDERED SOMEONE. but that's okay, you know, because LOL "what is human life we are as good at punishing people for killing someone as a crippled third-world country"

It's like some flavorful conspiracy to attract murder to your state. Does it make the government money or something?

oh my god, capslock necessary for how effing ridiculous this is. To the point where I am losing coherency.

I wish someone could explain to me why murder seems to mean nothing to the state of Washington; because this is hardly the first, second, or third time I've read about juveniles who've been convicted of murder being out and about breaking laws and generally being .. BAD PEOPLE. "lolololol wut is human life, 3 months will clearly be enough for MURDER!"

I just don't get it as someone who's new to the state. Maybe that's part of Washington's historic serial killer collection?

I'm going to take a wild guess that the enormous waste of a metric f***ton of money that was the WES would have easily covered purchasing new buses. Need we be reminded of how minuscule the ridership of the WES is and how much money was spent on it?

TriMet needs to stop punishing their riders and taxpayers for their own ridiculous BS that they dig THEMSELVES into.

Someone please explain to me how this is in any way beneficial to the employees of Walgreens?

So some high-strung addict who is likely packing a gun is going to come into a Walgreens store, and instead of being handed their drugs immediately, is going to be told "sorry, we can't open the safe" and be expected to believe that they're not being lied to?

Does that mean anything to someone who is already unintelligent enough to be robbing a pharmacy? No, it just puts the employees in immediate danger of retaliation from someone who is most likely armed. Pretty sure an employee's life should always be worth more than giving them what they're looking for.

Ridiculous.

BULLSH-- it was a mistake. That representative probably signed him up for a new contract to get a fat commission they would have otherwise not received.

Not that Qwest is the classiest provider of anything, really. Their Internet service is terrible, their speeds are downright lies, and the only people I've ever known to use Qwest's services are people who are in an area where they can ONLY get Qwest or go without Internet entirely.

A (very quick and instant) Wikipedia or even Google search yields the proper spelling of "Nicole Scherzinger". I'm not a big fan of hers or anything, but at least I know how to spell her name.

KATU, really? You're really not proofreading anything before publishing it, are you? Looking more and more foolish every day.

Come on, KATU. Nouns v. verbs.
