What is Adult Swim?
      Adult swim is a television program that once aired on cartoon network MONDAY-Saturday 11pm-6am and Sundays 10pm-6am. it shows at midnight because its Adult oriented not meant for young children to watch, the reason for that is that a variety of cartoons would air but the cartoons had a lot going on to much for a child to encounter. Cussing, sexual comments,sexual pics,bad appearances etc. all occurred on the program which is children shouldn't be watching it. those who have watched it just go head and take a look at them now.
WHY DID CARTOON NETWORK LAUNCH ADULT SWIM?
 Cartoon network wants to attract all age groups what better idea could they have,I think it qwas a great idea Parents will just have to pay attention to what there children are watching. Around that time anyway children should be in the bed.

Loitering

The things that go on in the world today are already bad but when it comes down to someone throwing unwanted or no longer needed items on the ground it irritates me. I feel you shouldnt complain about anything if your contibuting to the wrong doing.there's a near by trash can somewhere, have respect for your own environment im sure your parents taught you better then to be triphalin. sometimes i think what if noone was there to pick up after loitering people, would people still do it ad let our grounds pile up with trash, or will they have enough respect to put trash/unwanted item where it belong. In todays society you never know what people will do, me personlly I think people would just let it pile up but this is just my opinion I might be wrong. im not saying im perfect but everybody knows right from wrong soo come on STOP the LOITERING.

TROY DAVIS

ATLANTA (AP) — Convicted cop killer Troy Davis is scheduled to be executed Wednesday for a crime he says he did not commit.
Vigils outside Georgia's death chamber were set. Protests were planned. Davis' attorneys said he was willing to take a polygraph test if the pardons board would consider its results. And they didn't rule out filing one last legal appeal, though they know it's a long shot.
In Europe, where the planned execution has drawn widespread criticism, legislators and activists were making a last-minute appeal to the state of Georgia to refrain from executing Davis. Amnesty International and other groups planned a protest outside the U.S. Embassy in Paris later Wednesday. Amnesty International also planned to hold a vigil outside the U.S. Embassy in London on Wednesday night.
Renate Wohlwend of the Council of Europe's Parliamentary Assembly noted doubts raised about Davis' conviction. She said that "to carry out this irrevocable act now would be a terrible mistake which could lead to a tragic injustice."
Davis is to be executed by injection at 7 p.m. for the 1989 killing of Mark MacPhail, an off-duty police officer who was working as a security guard in Savannah when he was shot dead rushing to help a homeless man who had been attacked.

Michigan Policeman behind bars

 SAGINAW (WJRT) -
(09/13/11) - A Buena Vista Township police officer is behind bars charged with killing a pregnant woman.
Officer Kenneth Bluew, 36, was formally charged in Saginaw County District Court Tuesday morning.
Bluew faces four felony charges, including the most serious offense of first degree premeditated murder.
He is also charged with intentional conduct against a pregnant individual resulting in death, miscarriage or stillbirth to a fetus or embryo, and two counts of felony firearms.
Bluew is accused of killing 32-year-old Jennifer Webb on Aug. 30. Her body was found near a gun range in Buena Vista Township the following day.
Webb was eight months pregnant, and friends tell us she was carrying Bluew's child, a boy to be named Braxton.
Prosecutor Mike Thomas reports Bluew was on duty when the crime took place, and confirms Bluew was at the scene of the murder when another officer found Webb's body.
Thomas says Webb was strangled to death.
He goes on to say Bluew was arrested Monday night after investigators got some DNA-related lab results back from the Michigan State Police Crime Lab.
He then was taken to the Saginaw County Jail, but because of his status as a police officer in the county, it was decided to move Bluew to Bay County for the night.
It's unclear where he'll be housed moving forward.
Bluew is suspended from the Buena Vista Township Police Department at this time.
"The principle upset in this case is the fact that we lost a 32-year-old citizen and a child that could have been born alive and lost their life experiences also. I mean that's the tragedy in this case," said Thomas.
Bluew will be back in court later this month



He aint a man no matter how mad you get at a woman you should never put your hands on one ESPECIALLY a pregnant one. he deserve everything he get.
