Okay, new ongoing bit from me called WtF??? where I discuss the Things That Make You Go WTF???
First one: A four-year-old girl was told by a teacher that her act of hugging another kindergarten student who had fallen while playing was the wrong thing to do. I guess schools want our kids to become unemotional sheep in the herd. The parents have pulled their child from the school, and are demanding an apology. Good.
Next: a woman in Texas who murdered her 10-month-old by cutting off her arms is found not guilty by reason of insanity.
This shining star was found in her room, covered in blood, holding a knife and listening to a hymn while her daughter was dying from blood loss in her crib.
This verdict stemmed from a retrial, based upon whether or not she realized the wrongfulness of her crime, that she was suffering from religious-based hallucinations and delusions. (Yeah, no shinola, Sherlock...)
In her first trial, she said that she wanted to cut off her baby's lumbs and her own limbs so she could offer them to God.
This one, in my opinion, goes way beyond WtF??? and directly into speechlessness. I am without words to describe what I think could have possibly gone through her mind. I just shudder when I think about this.
I'm still trying to find more information on the case where an inmate who's incarcerated for child porn and raping young boys is allowed via the First Amendement to mail letters to people with graphic descriptions of his activities with child porn.
Need I say more...
