Iowa Basketball Player Intentionally Misses Free Throw to Preserve Fallen Player’s Record ~ Selfless young people like this give me hope 
Last weekend, in a game between the University of Iowa and Northwestern University…
(Jordan) Bohannon stepped to the foul line with a chance to break former Hawkeye legend Chris Street’s record of 34 consecutive free throws. Street had been killed in a car accident halfway through the 1993 basketball season right in the midst of his streak. Street’s parents were in the stands last night, set to see their boy’s record broken.
Instead, Bohannon took a breath, and lofted the ball gently toward the front of the basket, far short of what he’d need to make the shot. He then pointed to the sky.

The civilian police force handles the entire security system of all schools from kindergarten through college. The Ministry of Education funds shelters and fences, reinforces school buses, and hires and trains guards.

Researchers at King’s College London tested almost 1,000 police seizures from Kent, Derbyshire, Merseyside, Sussex and the capital in 2016 and found 94 per cent were of a dangerously high potency.[…]
Dr Marta Di Forti, Medical Research Council Clinician Scientist at King’s College warned that the powerful drug placed Britain’s 2.1 million cannabis users at risk of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, psychosis, delusions and hallucinations.
“Regular users of high-potency cannabis carry the highest risk for psychotic disorders, compared to those who have never used cannabis.”

The Fallen will always find new ways to kill. So it was in the beginning, so it is still.
This is the whole crux of the matter: We can posture, debate and pontificate until we’re blue in the face. We can circle each other from Facebook to CNN town halls to the halls of Congress. If we don’t wrestle with what compels us to kill our brother and sister, we’re just dancing with shadows.
