Children, just an annoyance.

I find it overwhelmingly annoying having to tug three children around all the time. I mean, after all- I too have a life, and just why on earth should my life be interrupted by the needs of three little heathens, always needing feed, clothed, taken care of. I mean, really... just how am I suppose to do what I want, when they are just so bothersome? And lets not even go into the fact that they are hampering my relationship with my boyfriend.

Perhaps not word for word what Amanda Hamm thought, but I'm betting it's close enough to count.

December 2006, I wrote a post about Amanda Hamm, her willful neglect of her children and her willing participation in their murder- all because she felt they were an inconvenience to her lifestyle. At that time, she was sentenced to 10 years in prison in Illinois, because the judge found her to be just about half guilty of the drowning deaths of her three children- 6-year-old Christopher Hamm, 3-year-old Austin Brown and 23-month-old Kyleigh Hamm. I firmly believed that 10 years was not enough to serve as justice for the lives that were stolen, 10 years was not long enough to be considered punishment for a woman who would put her children into a car and allow that car to sink into a lake- taking with it the last moments of the lives of those children. And, to this day I still believe that ten years is nothing short of a slap in the face to the victims, putting a price of just three years and four months as the value of each life the child could be living today.

And then, today I read a disturbing article about Hamm, and about just what the real value of those children's lives are according to the state of Ill. Amanda Hamm was released from prison, not even having served a full two years. 21 months total time since she was found guilty, which breaks down to just around 7 months per child. This disgrace on humanity actually spent more time pregnant with each of these children than she did serving time for their murders. Oh, but wait. It's actually worse than that. You see, she was found guilty 21 months ago- but didn't start serving her sentence until 14 months ago... so that's about 4, almost 5 months per murdered child. Is this really what they consider justice in Illinois?

Guided by practical experience and not theory, especially in medicine Kennedy hate crimes rider may doom Hatch's sex offender bill By Robert Gehrke The Salt Lake Tribune WASHINGTON - A fight over federal hate crimes legislation could torpedo Sen. Orrin Hatch's push to strengthen the nation's sex-offender registries and clamp down on sex crimes. The Senate Judiciary Committee gave quick, unanimous approval to Hatch's bill Thursday, clearing its way for consideration by the full Senate. But Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., said he plans to try to attach language to a bill that would require tougher sentences, provide federal assistance and offer grants to prosecute hate crimes - those motivated by hatred for a race, religion, gender or sexual orientation.

WTW Someone Please Help Us

There's so much to work with, I'm going to just hit as much as I can. Ashely Simpson decided to pick a fight at McDonald's. Betting millions that if the employee would just go and get the manager- the manager would just love her. Simpson's climbing on the counter and irate behavior where in typical White Trash Style. Great coverage at Stereogum. Tom Cruise has decidedly canned his sister for her inability to help him keep his mouth shut. Evidently he needs a real professional as his PR person- in order to keep him in line. It's just not right firing family because you're and idiot. Kate Hudson is suing someone because of photos of her in which she looks like a starving actress. She claims the images suggest she has a eating disorder- no Kate, it's not the images, it's the you. One should not sue because they have starved themselves to the point of it being noticeable in photos. Please stop by these other great sites to read more WHITE TRASH WEDNESDAY B...

Boyfriends...

I sometimes wonder if certain men have some sort of animal DNA breed into them. The type of DNA or whatever it is that makes animals ritually preform certain actions. Like lions, when a male lion takes over a pride it'll often kill the offspring of the previous male, before mating with the female lions and creating cubs of it's own. I only wonder this, because it seems like there are an overwhelming number of men out there that end up killing the children of their girlfriends, not all of them do- but on a case by case comparison between girlfriends killing their boyfriends offspring and boyfriends doing it, it just seems that it's a lot more common amoung men. NOT THAT ALL OF THEM DO THIS... there are some great boyfriends/stepfathers out there that actually take care of kids as if they are their own... but then we have cases like Christopher Thunborg and Kashon Scott. Thunborg was babysitting his girlfriend's 11 month of baby in March when police say he caused ...
