Kenney Bui, Evergreen High School Football Player, Dies From Game Injury

Highline Public Schools said in a statement that Kenney Bui, a senior at Evergreen High School, was “critically injured” during Friday night’s game. He underwent surgery at Harborview Medical Center but died late Monday morning, the school district said.

I’ve said some anti football commentary on here before and got some not so positive feedback after doing so.

But I’m going to do it again.
If you’re the parent of a player you need to evaluate what you’re getting your child into.. And if you’re a player you equally need to know what you’re signing up for..
Sometimes your big game could be your last.

Online posts linked to Laurel Harper, the mother of the gunman, are limited and incomplete, but they seem to indicate two things: that her son, Chris Harper-Mercer, had a developmental disorder, and that the family had a familiarity with firearms and gun laws.

Florida Senate candidate admits to sacrificing goat, drinking its blood

The SUN SENTINELS in Florida reports: “Two years ago, Augustus Sol Invictus walked from central Florida to the Mojave Desert and spent a week fasting and praying, at times thinking he wouldn’t survive. In a pagan ritual to give thanks when he returned home, he killed a goat and drank its blood. Now that he’s a candidate for U.S. Senate, the story is coming back to bite him.”

Oh my.
It’s a strange season indeed.

Coffins Surface Because Of Flooding in South Carolina

WIBF: ORANGEBURG, S.C.- A cemetery is flooded causing coffins to rise up out of the ground in Orangeburg, South Carolina.

This is a particularly horrid situation and to think of caskets with corpses rising from the ground is macabre and somehow perfectly timed for the Halloween season..

Knowing people in South Carolina, I can attest second hand to the ongoing nightmare on streets and in towns… The waters will recede but the heartache will remain..

And now the unexpected task of reburying those long in the ground previously… That’s perhaps the more morose of all..

Multiple Firings After Racially Charged Facebook Remarks Mocking a Black Child Go Viral

Perhaps there are two lessons learned here.

First, Facebook is not private. Even if you think it is.. even if you set it to private.. even if you believe you’re getting away with untoward comments.. you will be seen.

And secondly? Don’t be stupid, racist, and ignorant.  If you’re stupid, racist, and ignorant, then stop being you.

It will save you the agony of such things as this article describes after the viral dust settles..

More from the NY POST story:

Bre Larson, 19, who is studying psychology at Umpqua Community College, in Roseburg, had planned to do her homework in the school library at 10 am Thursday, when she was struck by a powerful premonition.

“I had planned go to there to make a Power Point presentation for my speech class. It’s my favorite place to study. I set my alarm for 9 am but I got this weird feeling,” the second-year student said.

“I was talking to myself, thinking, should I go? Something didn’t feel right. It was sort of an instinct, ” she said, adding she went to a gym to work out instead.

THE CHURCH OF JUSTIN BIEBER'S FIRST FORAY INTO THE MYSTICAL AND SCIENTIFIC RATIONAL FOR GOD

He clearly opposes the big bang theory:

“I’m the type of dude who always wants to figure it out. Science makes a lot of sense. Then I start thinking — wait, the ‘big bang’. For a ‘big bang’ to create all this is more wild to think about than thinking about there being a God. Imagine putting a bunch of gold into a box, shaking up the box, and out comes a Rolex. It’s so preposterous once people start saying it.”
