Nothing is bringing assurance to the people that either political pole has a clue as to how to really run this country, and the UNC’s Rodney Charles inspired insipidity that has reduced the upcoming election to a choice between the Kamla and Rowley personalities is turning the public off of the process in droves. No Rodney, this is not America, we are not voting for an executive President, and the issues that beg to be discussed here has nothing to do with 'who likes whom' best from among those two. We are making fools of the electorate with this nonsense.

The only positive out of these calls, is that Brittney was nice and polite to all the callers.
During what appears to be the prosecution’s case, Amanda is cross-examining Warren Attinger. She successfully portrays him to the Jury as a bad Husband who stays out all night and is rude as well as violent towards his wife, all the while nudging the defendant towards speaking of how enraged and provoked she was upon finding what she did and that to be the only reason why she shot her husband in the first place. In the beginning of the movie it was clearly depicted that the facts showing she had already purchased a gun and shot inside the room before entering that seeing the mistress and her husband together wouldn’t have actually changed her mind. On the other hand, Adam (prosecutor) starts with a series of yes or no questions of the following

With reference to four articles related to murder committed by young women, I will explain why Cohen’s theory of moral panic is not applicable to crimes committed by young women now.
