North Dakota Mom Gives Fat Shaming Note On Halloween In Lieu Of Candy Read more at http://www.inquisitr.com/1012861/north-dakota-mom-halloween-note/#vvGOt6J5TJLe8m7L.99

How about if this judgmental ignorant piece of crap mind her own business and not tell others how they should raise their kids. I have a better idea on what this woman can do if she is so concerned about child hood obesity. Instead of writing an ignorant fat shaming note, how about handing out healthy snacks or don't even turn your light on in the first place. A letter like this will do far more damage than it will do good. My friend Kim wrote a great article in response to this "woman's" letter and you can read her article below. Link to Kim's article here.

Wal-Mart Employee Terminated for Defending a Female Assault Victim (Video)

Pretty sad when a company fires someone for doing the right thing. Did they expect him to just stand there and do nothing? Well,knowing Walmart they probably did. From the article "Apparently, Wal-Mart is also in the business of rolling back logic. A Hartland, MI branch of the community-killing “big-box” store has made a surprising move after a brave employee jumped to a woman’s rescue at around 2:30 am outside the store. Kristopher Oswald, who had been working at the store stocking pet food on the overnight shift for about seven weeks. He was enjoying his lunch break when he heard a woman screaming, and saw a man hanging on the hood of her car." Link to full story and video

Read This Amazing Letter Addressed To Parents Wanting to Sue Ex-NFL Player After Their Kids Wrecked His House (Video)

It's a sad state of affairs when instead of wanting to teach their kids who trashed an ex-NFL player's house about responsibility and accountability, parents would rather sue the ex-NFL player for outing their kids and supposedly "ruining their lives". What kind of parenting is that? These parents are to stupid to ralize that their kids broke the law.  They should be happy he did not have them arrested and hauled off to jail.  and lets not forget the kids outed themselves when they posted the pictures online.  

From the article, 
"Holloway got wind of all this while it was happening thanks to Twitter, and decided to do something about it. What horrible thing did he do? He started a Facebook page called Help Me Save 300 in order to identify the revelers and hold them accountable for their actions. He invited them over to his trashed house for a picnic, and to help clean up the mess. Holloway doesn’t want to punish the kids other than having them help clean up his place, he merely wants to teach them a lesson about accountability and responsibility.
Sounds perfectly noble, right?
Well, in a classic example of irresponsible parents raising bratty, self-important kids, some of the parents are threatening to sue Holloway for outing them and “ruining their kid’s lives”. How exactly does that teach their children a lesson? Those kids broke several laws that night – burglary, vandalism, trespassing, larceny, underage possession of alcohol, etc. – and these parents think the best way to handle it is to sue Holloway for outing their criminal children?"
