Well now, vesta, madam, three things.
When I brought this over, it was the big headline on Drudge; in fact, I was rather surprised it hadn't been posted in "Breaking News" until I did it myself, given that I'm usually behind everybody else.
The source was a well-established, well-reputed, newspaper in Australia, and hence probably not exactly known for sensationalism.
I forget the third reason; it's 105 degrees in the shade, very high humidity, this afternoon, and so the cerebral-cells aren't connecting.
Anyway, immediately upon learning the story is not necessarily true, I yanked it out of "Breaking News."
Frank, what is your point????
You regret posting the story or now do not believe it could ever happen????
We know that anything a human can conceive of can and will happen somewhere on Earth at some time .
Every thing from the paintings of what Valid the Impeller did, to the 1700 paintings of hanging or at the stake burning witches. Our Art Museums have paintings of horror that we today cannot believe or want to believe these things ever took place.
We today try to separate ourself from our ancestors that created and did most horrid things in our mind today. We try to pretend that we have mutated away from what was excepted behavior along time ago.
We have not changed, we can still accept the same horror today that happend years ago. In a different form. We no longer place the heads of enemy's on pikes outside the town, however were it to be accepted Casey Anthony would never have lived long enough to get a trial.
We believe that we have become much more different from those in the past, but darn it all, we now find that no matter what people do, children in a pit, is still possible for us to believe. Why Frank if we have progressed beyond the so called Savages of the past do we deny that under the correct circumstances we will not revert to mind set of the past.???
Religion came in here to control our nature, sometimes the religion caused even more suffering then before the faith.
The heat is not addling your brains Frank, you posted a strange story that was not impossible in human life, and millions of people that read this did not discount the story.
