0) Luckily, the child was not injured.
1) If nothing else, hopefully, she learned a lesson about how to properly store her firearms.
2) I'm betting the state tries to come up with some trumped up bullshit legal challenge, but I personally think a bullet in the back should be punishment enough.
3) Her being an idiot does not automatically mean the government can infringe on her rights (or mine, or yours).
4) Maybe she'll become a famous advocate for properly securing firearms in the presence of children.

I'd be happy if she started by advocating securing children in the presence of a deadly weapon, cars! If the kid hadn't shot her he could just as easily have been flung forward in an emergency stop and cracked her skull open. Safety does not appear to be a high priority issue!

Looks like a Lincoln Town Car. If that is the case, there should be plenty of room under the hood to plant a tree. I'd guess that the radiator and attached hoses and belts were severed, but if that has a cast iron block and heads, it should last a good 15 to 20 minutes without cooling.

His English homework this week was to answer the following questions about the last book he had read.
"Who do you know that would like to read it and why?"
"Who do you know who wouldn't like to read it and why?"
He said to me this is really hard Daddy, it's easy to say who would like it because all my friends like Diary of the Wimpy Kid, but I don't know anyone who wouldn't want to read it. I agreed it was hard and somewhat a negative way of thinking about one of your favourite books but I told him to go away and have a think about it and I'm sure you'll come back with something. Ten minutes later he came back and proudly showed me his homework book where he had wrote
"Freddie Kruegar would not like to read Diary of the Wimpy Kid because every time he tried to turn the page his razor hands will shred it to pieces"
That's my boy, no need for a DNA test there. Can't wait till see how his Teacher marks it.

"Who do you know who wouldn't like to read it and why?" Shouldn't that be "Whom" ?

The first sentence doesn't use a relative personal pronoun, either, so I vote we take up a petition to sack this moron who's pretending to be an English teacher.

Nope. Sorry. Oxford Dictionaries has declared the use of 'whom' in this context unnecessarily exaggerated formality (as close as they will ever come to saying 'incorrect'!) The simple interrogative is properly treated differently to the relative pronoun. It is one of many examples where the rules (which you will remember were arbitrarily imposed by an intellectual elite anyway) have never truly reflected actual use.

I am writing a paper for a writing class that I am currently taking, and I plan on writing on the subculture that programmers are a part of. So basically I have 2 questions that I need answered, and appreciate everyone's responses.
Question 1.) Why do you program, and what attracted you to programming in the first place?
Question 2.) Do you see any problems or future problems that could arise within the programmer subculture?
Thank you all in advance for the help.

Others did it and it seemed cool and smart to do so I did.

My answers:
Question 1.) Why do you program, and what attracted you to programming in the first place?
The chicks! Nah! I got stuck with it, I'm a hardware guy who basically got stuck with VB6 thing that didn't work.
Question 2.) Do you see any problems or future problems that could arise within the programmer subculture?
The issues, well the lack of bacon & and the limits of processor technology.
