"...Thrown in a lineup,
Labeled as a gangbanger though he never signed up
Cops is trying to get the crime up
Get that on your record,
Employer's gonna check it - fire you
So now you gotta resort to the only method
That seem to guarantee
Any sense of clarity
Asked him when the rent'll be paid
The street salary
You're sure to meet tragedy:
Die or go to jail
But somehow
It all still seem worth it
and thats real..." Young Man - Talib Kweli

Revolutionary suicide does not mean that I and my comrades have a death wish; it means just the opposite. We have such a strong desire to live with hope and human dignity that existence without them is impossible. When reactionary forces crush us, we must move against these forces, even at the risk of death." Revolutionary Suicide - Huey P. Newton

"But I have concluded that the ongoing investigation also would have forced an untenable delay in the confirmation process," Richardson said.

Bus driver Linda Hockaday was late for church, that's her excuse for locking a man with the capacity of a two year old inside a bus and leaving him there in the bitter cold for 19 hours while his family searched for him.
There’s an imaginary level of immaturity that comes with game playing, a less-than-serious aura more identifiable with kids and older teens. Many gamers realize this, and would rather not reveal their game playing habits just as porn addicts wouldn’t want to admit their sins to fellow church members.
