And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

Facebook Shooting Father & CPS

Back in February I posted a video of a father who scolded his daughter by destroying her laptop.  And it wasn't just a simple disassembling of the device, he did it by shooting the crap out of it.  LOL.  If you don't remember, you can see the video here.

Well ever since that happened, Mr. Tommy Jordan has welcomed guests to his humble home; Child Protective Services and ABC Good Morning America to name a few.
“Yes they came. Of course they came,” Jordan exclaimed. “They received enough ‘Oh my God he’s going to kill his daughter’ comments that they had to.”

“At the end of the day, no I’m not losing my kids, no one’s in danger of being ripped from our home that I know of,” he added.
According to the article I read this morning, A CBS poll found that 78 percent of the public agreed with the Father's actions, 10 percent felt he went too far by shooting the laptop, and the remaining 12 percent thought that the way someone acts as a parent is nobody's business. What do you think? Did the father react appropriately? What would you've done differently?

He shouldn't have wasted the bullets. A bucket of water would have done just fine.
