shortformblog: afternoonsnoozebutton: NEW ORLEANS — NOPD Superintendent Ronal Serpas says that at least 12 people were shot a Mother’s Day second-line parade in the 7th Ward. The youngest victim in the shooting was 10 years old. Another, thirteenth victim wasn’t actually shot, but was injured in a fall. Police believe three suspects were involved. They were seen fleeing toward Claiborne Avenue. Police say there were 200 people at the corner where shots rang out, and 300 to 400 people at the second line in all. There were about 10 cops on the scene trying to control the second line when the shooting happened. There were reportedly two different guns involved. (WWTV) No immediate fatalities were reported in the shooting, according to the New Orleans Time-Picayune. A fluid situation however; we’re keeping an eye on. America, what is up???

Tutu 'will no longer vote for ANC'

I think that this is a major win for South Africa.

A big name with “struggle credentials” not voting ANC any more gives the average Joe at least the thought that it’s possible to think of other options. You don’t have to vote for the ANC because you voted for the ANC before.

This is really just giving people permission to think for themselves, rather than blindly voting for a party that does nothing for them or the country.

Let’s hope these encouraging signs persist.

With a bit of luck, the message of the DA’s latest “Know your DA” campaign will also imprint on people’s minds that the DA was opposed to Apartheid all along.

I think these are all hopeful signs.

Everyone has something good. Become a donar campaign. Awesome idea and great design. Private project by my talented colleague Felipe Franco.

Interesting idea for an organ donar campaign; even the most rotten person can still offer a decent organ.
