The church was an incidental, it had nothing to do with the reason for the shooting, it was a location, period. By tearing it down, you are just proving that there is no 'god' to protect you from others.

This folks, is what you get when an SJW writes a movie review. Little focus on the movie, but rated based on the politics surrounding it and how politically correct the jokes are. Enough with the constant divisive commentary and politics from the left. It's a sad state when conservative movements are less divisive than anything spewed from a hyper-liberal these days.

Anyone who changed their vote based on what Putin said deserves Trump!

Why do you assume history repeats when the players are different?

I didn't say he was the smartest guy in the room...he just wants everyone to know he is. No doubt he is a smart man (just ask him to mansplain it to you). Presumably those who disagree with him might also be smart people but he treats them with disdain and condescension. And, now everyone who disagrees with him is labelled a racist.

Than logically speaking the first ones you should pick on are the aggressors and the ones having USA support behind that allows them to carry out their nefarious deeds. Meaning start with the bully and work from there....In this case...Iran comes a distant third.

Depends on your age and retirement goals. I doubt they have much if they are relying on tax deductions to make their budget work. That's a bad budget.

Supt. David (Mark) Fenton will probably have to spend the rest of his waking life, sleeping with one eye open. Put him in GP and see how well he fairs. Too bad the others managed slither away and get out of the net. This is a case where Toronto Cops are Not Tops.

CMD: Every child has the RIGHT to an education in the "least restrictive appropriate educational environment." It is the District's responsibility working with staff, outside agencies, professional consultants if necessary, and, importantly, the parents to develop an appropriate IEP (Individualized Educational Program) for the student. That IEP may vary from some special help/aide time etc in the regular classroom to an "on-campus" alternative classroom or, in extreme cases, to residential treatment placement. These students do not "need to be removed from Oregon public schools." They need to have the appropriate placement and support systems to address their particular needs. This does NOT mean "babysitting." On the contrary, it means intensive and often very expensive intervention and support programs. We have the same community responsibility to these kids we have to the "model" students......they are all "our" kids. Gary Crum

Cheetolini is President Trump? If yes, how did President Trump become part of this thread?! (eyeroll)

None of us are responsible for the behavior of our ancestors. We're only responsible for our own behavior, now. I forget what I was watching, I think it was about a show on PBS where they look up the histories of ancestors. Larry David and Anderson Cooper both found out that their ancestors owned slaves. Anderson Cooper's ancestor was actually killed by a slave. They both condemned their ancestors. But today, you have southern people who think their ancestors deserve honor for the societies they tried to perpetuate. You don't have to ignore where you came from, but you don't have to honor the bad parts either. It's important to not be relativistic and pick sides where they might have be no real winners. It just matters what we do about it now.

Another great article Margaret and as usual you've summed up the issue in your last 2 paragraphs. "The Paradise Papers are a good reminder of the way the world really works. While Mr. Trudeau tries to chisel nickels and dimes from small business people in the name of tax fairness, the rich are getting away with murder. And it's legal. And people think that stinks. As for Mr. Trudeau's effort to style himself as a populist, my advice is to stop. All he does is make things worse. People figure he's just a crony politician like everybody else. And they're not wrong." Justin Trudeau doesn't give a tinkers tack for regular Canadians!

But clouds parting and avenging angels appearing never seem to happen nowadays.

They definitely do not believe in "sparing the rod" when it comes to kids, if you know what I mean.

Well, CivilizedDawn, another bit of "metaphorical dogma" (the immaculate conception) is sucked down the drain of political/partisan expediency. And, yet, there a those who wish to destroy the "wall of separation" between church and state.

Have you read the accounts by Christopher Columbus of the savage acts he committed against children?

Englewood is not that big that the candidates there could not have made an effort to reach alot of the city.

Another pious Republican hypocrite

Exactly like Anita Hill!

9 out of 10 child molesters vote Republican.

I think we need to sue Gabby and her group, along with the Bloomberg groups, for conspiring to subvert the US Constitution and Bill of Rights. I think we would have a better chance at winning.

So it's either Trump or China's fault that Gomer didn't show up? The KoolAid remains strong.

"Can I please have someone explain our “return on our investment” (ROI) on these tax incentives." That is a very intelligent question at the heart of the matter. Of course offering tax credits costs the State in the early years. The REASON they are offered is to pay off in the long term. The Legislature must have had some economic analysis from OMB or other sources to justify the credits in the legislation? Must be a spreadsheet somewhere. However, whether it was a good idea or bad, We owe the credits and I would pay them asap from the $14 billion we have in the Earnings Reserve.

Farwell is right

I concur. Marked for Death above the Jamaican drug dealer was the best. Then downhill. He's getting too fat and old. Hair transplant is laughable. The athletic Chinese kung fu movies are the best. Donnie Yen can whip Seagal any time.

The columnist very much overstates the case for there being any features or choices of Trump that have somehow impacted China's trajectory in any major way. China assertively looks out for its own interests on the world stage, as it has done for decades, centuries, millennia. China's momentum and direction would be no different with a USA under a Hillary or a Bernie over the past twelve months. That is a blink of an eye in the landscape of China's motion. One of my favourite quotes, ever, came from Mao Zedong, paraphrased here: "Things always seem at their darkest right before everything becomes completely black." That is an excellent quote, regardless of your political persuasion...

At the margin there will be some of what you describe, and there already is (those little enclaves that look like mini-small towns surrounding a park and a few stores in the center of housing, like Prospect in Longmont). And of course the urban areas will continue to build upward and get more dense. None of this is anything new, nor will it be it anywhere close to making a wide metro area like the Front Range dramatically different in terms of walkability and transit-capabability. Again, that ship has already sailed. Yes, you'll see MARGINAL build-up around transit stations. Yes, you'll see SOME more min-enclaves. But this pipe-dream about redesigning 150 square miles of metro Denver into something greatly different than it is is just that - a pipe dream.

Amazing to me how many fans think the Broncos could just go out and replace DT and his production at any time. Results would be about the same as what we've seen with attempts to replace Manning. This guy has been a playmaker, a team first guy, a solid citizen and grinder since his arrival. He's the one pick McMoron made that has worked out for the benefit of the Broncos long-term.

The Russians knew that Trump had a long history of nasty and abusive sex. This is why the offer of prostitutes was made to Trump. They most likely have the tapes of the previous shower session with Trump and Russian prostitutes, which is why Donald continues to deep throat Putin at every opportunity. Trump's bodyguard left Trump alone after just a few minutes, so there's a high probability that Nasty Boy Don invited the Russian whores in and had a nice shower or two. Would this really surprise anyone? Trump is the sickest, and most mentally incompetent man to ever step foot in the White House. The Mueller investigation is getting closer and closer to bringing the entire Trump family down, as well as most of the White House. It's as corrupt as anything we've ever seen, and the downfall can't come soon enough.

I feel the same way about ties which are a symbol of capitalist, male-dominated hierarchies. Let's ban those too! They're also a choking hazard, niqabs have one positive up on ties apparently.

Is the green roofs native cactus? Little water required? Denver is a Alpine desert environment... and requires water to be pumped in.

So Funny, The ignorant Demonrats completely forgot about the Farce Purpose of the Hawaii Convention Center. Something about replacing all other Honolulu Convention Centers (even though they lack enough parking), traffic jams, high cost of renting means minimal usage (Loss of Hawaii Citizens Money).

Shooting someone running away and unarmed is a clue. Trump relies on the soft bigotry of whites who do not believe that they have any racist attitudes, that if only black people would quit talking about race these issues would go away. That is simply not the case, as any black job applicant or potential renter or homebuyer will tell you. Racism runs deep and ignoring that is racist.

THAT'S what I have been talking about and they FINALLY played the 4th quarter with authority!!! FINALLY...only 3 years in the making to do this. Now I hope they don't do the next thing they do after a good win...lose to a team they have no business losing to. I don't care that Orlando is 7-4, the Nuggets canNOT lose to them tomorrow or else this OKC achievement goes down the drain.

The rumor was that Trudeau refused to concede all of what little was left of our manufacturing sector. Actually, it is trump’s stance on equitable trade rather than free trade that is finally penetrating the cerabella the Canadian delegation

See that's why I don't like homeless people because they don't wonna work like us who does wonna work too. Because they don't wonna work. Seen the homeless people back were they came from because they are trouble. Chris n Ricky

Hey there, Scott. Love your reason for always supporting Trump. Hadn't thought of that. Gotta ask: how do you think it's working? "This outcome if the deal is canceled (sic) is good..." What outcome would that be, Scott? Little confused by that. Should the deal be cancelled? I'd be interested to know why, because I believe it still has yet to be ratified. THEN it must be introduced into the House. "...reflect badly on Canadians..." Or maybe not. If our PM holds the proposed deal in contempt (who knows for sure?) then, his "no show" might cut through the rhetoric really effectively. It appears the others missed him, wanted him there. If so, that's good, that clears the air on "does anybody care about Canada?" There is absolutely no proof that the "no show" means PM wants the deal "cancelled." Lots of reasons suggested for the "no show"--read these comments! If we can't, in fact, compete with low-wage Asians, well, maybe we can sell them our natural resources anyway.

There needs to either be a local skilled workforce, or people have to be willing to move there. Not many software folks really want to move to rust belt cities. Have you seen a great lakes winter?

Usually, they claim their god conveniently hates the same people they do. Yes, one can find a lot of wisdom in various scriptures, but only a fool thinks every word of his version, and only his version is infallible.

Pleas point to any notification from anyone in the Trump government that these are obstacles to renegotiating NAFTA. Just repeating that Cons don't give a dang about women, the environment or First Nations is pointless - we already know that.

Yes. A strong union. These guys get away with stuff that I would have been fired for after the very first instance.

Yeah. A psychotic ATHEIST attacks a church. Just a place....like a dispensary....coincidence.

Didn't even read the article, did you, 3 daisies? But of course the moonies gave you a star. Sad!

With a great-great Uncle who fought for the North and the other one who fought for the South and neither of whom gave a crap about slaves (they grew up in Missouri), I find it unnecessary to 'dishonor' either of them despite the nonsense coming from the U of O or this particular collection of commenters.

How is it that a Globe and Mail editorial can use the word STUPID in its headline, and yet, if I review a fellow poster's comment and deem it to be worthy even though it has the word 'dumb' in it, and then I get restricted?!!! This peer review system is a total farce and the Globe and Mail editors are just a bunch of hypocrites. Let's see if the word in upper-case above passes the sniff test. This system of comment peer review is a total fail.

Disagree with moon howler but even more with the ridiculous follow-on comments criticizing Trudeau for being impolite. Really? These are the same neocons who repeatedly refer to him as sunny ways. Make up your bloody minds. Do you want a tough negotiator or a wimp? A no-show by a head honcho in international talks usually means he's not satisfied officials have taken negotiations far enough that his presence would have any beneficial impact. I don't like the way globalization, globalized free trade, and the surrendering of Canada's economic sovereignty has gone in the past. I not only don't want Trudeau to ratify the TPP without major concessions, but I'd just as soon he told Trump what he can do with his NAFTA demands. In choosing to pass up a high level meeting, the main purpose of which is to strong arm hold-outs like Canada, Trudeau is showing he does have a spine. So get off his back and let him do his job.

Actually; Ms Karnopp is incorrect. 26 % of the registered voters did not vote. 26 % of the registered voters who could vote on at least one issue on a ballot voted. Arapahoe has over 83000 residents in Unincorporated and we happen to be one of them. Our area which is about 22000 had no issue to vote on. Neither did Holly Hills or Glendale to the west and north of us.

Proud of yourself, #ssclown? What an ignorant comment.

This animal ordered the unlawful kidnapping and caging of hundreds of Canadians, contrary to the Charter and Criminal code of Canada...and the weasel is trying to appeal and doesn't have the courage to admit his crimes? We went from a slap on the wrist to a slap on the back of the head. What must happen for a criminal thug officer to lose his job, AND go to prison? Not only does this undermine the public trust in policing, it throws the entire profession into disrepute.

I think Margaret has "hit the nail on the head"......at least for some of us (older) folks.....

I think it's a hoax promulgated by the Chinese.

Seagal just asked her in private to see her privates. Didn't pull her clothes off or peek down her chest. McCarthy is just being a drama queen to get her face (?) in the news. We are now in that stage where every gals wants some face time to revive their careers by screaming he raped me. Gonna be fun trying to guess which ones are booshite. Hope Degeneres invites McCarthy to her show and asks, "What did you expect him to ask you? You're a Playmate for God's sake! Do you think the public is so stupid to believe every tape accusation they hear. "

Other than the Star, what is the Liberal media? And it was C bc and the Star that broke the Paradise paper story. It wAs the Globe who endorsed the Cons three elections in a row at least. You look too hard to confirm your biases

Good. If Deputy Ford can get a free swing in on a guy calling him the "N" word, then this guy can take one at an attempted cop killer.

Let me get this straight: Colorado is now so bad that you're going to make a fortune selling your home and moving to Oklahoma, or maybe Alabama. Two states inhabited by people with a common sense and a clue, just no ability to read a road map telling them how to get the heck out of there?

Yes, good one; those last two words are, indeed, clee-shayed. Finally, a brief flicker of self-awareness.

No. I believe in justice. I also believe in equality, personal liberty and human fraternity. I believe that the living world has rights that deserve respect and protection. I despise misogyny, white supremacism, homophobia and ecocide. Is that what you mean when you say "60's counter cultural mantra"? If you find all that repulsive, you won't find any tolerance in this quarter. Luckily a number of those values are enshrined in the US Constitution and in many laws of many countries. You may be on the wrong side of history, pseudonymous one.

In criminal law, the state will offer you a public defender should you not be able to afford one. Taking a public defender as their legal counsel is pretty much a guarantee they will get locked up as most public defenders couldn't give a flying (*) about the defendant and will never pull off an OJ Simpson 9 month long trial so it's in the public's best interest the Kealohas do get a public defender. I look forward to heading over to the post office and forwarding all the sweepstakes junk mail I get every week to the Kealohas in club Fed. LOL

May I remind you that pregnancy IS a health issue for women. It's astonishing that you have no empathy for that. From what I read from you, what you really want is to punish women for "doing the act" and not being open to life. That is a Catholic position that most Catholics don't even follow anymore. (Thank God!) Where is your scorn for the men who are "doing the act" with a partner who does not wish to have a child? Regarding the death penalty, you keep making the mistake of comparing fetuses to adults. No comparison. Period. And you really look like a hypocrite when you state that War (intentional mass murder) can be morally justifiable to "stop an unjust aggressor" while women can die from pregnancy. I find your posts to be very insulting to women. You are entitled to your opinion but you cannot force others to live according to your sexist and warped worldview. Please don't bother to respond as I am now muting you.

Tegan, is there data available regarding the age or gender of the bears? I'm particularly curious whether the encounters are with a similar bear demographic to previous years. Thanks!

If they scammed once, they are not done! I would like a lot more details about them so others can be warned!

Thuggernut - If what I posted was not true - please refute it with arguments or links of your own. Name calling is so shallow. I have never posted under another name on this site. The frequency with which I am accused of doing so makes me think you and your fellow Conservatives employ that base trick all the time. Which would explain a lot about the constant, quick and repetitive gibberish many on the political right post.

The Rohingya (Muslims) in Rakhine ( Burmese province) have been over taken by a Wahhabi group of "rebels". These are Islamic extremists known for their belief in forced "conversion" . The other 135 ethnic sects , Buddhists , Hindus , Christians etc , etc are not happy with the idea of forced conversion , do you blame them . For example , in Syria, the Sunni's , Shia and Christians are united in the Syrian Army fighting the Wahhabi's , known as ISIS and Al Qaeda. The jihadist "rebels" are using atrocity and following that up with propaganda to try to create a separate state , then claim a piece of Burma's off-shore oil and gas. This is well funded , brought to you by Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, home of Wahhabi Islam . This latest incident was sparked by the rebels killing 71 Rakine police officers . Consider if that is how the rebels treat police , how do they treat unarmed civilians .

Ignoramus; chuckling wannabe money talks the speculative real estate talk. A wannabe mogul faces an actualized, high tech ambitious, thick, super rich ( ...), ancient wall of an environmental nightmare that nods, smile and smile - while considering how the world can be organized according to shadow boxing principles ...Poor mogul. Keep chuckling and tweeting to oblivion.

The idea that that Republicans and especially, Christian Evangelical Republicans carry moral superiority over the rest of us is, in fact, Fake News. That's obvious.

Scathing and scandalous! I like it. Republicans have become carnies. All side show and no know how.

Key phrase: "the feedback from the foreign press is..." Right. Got it. But I don't blame the "foreign press" if this, indeed, is "fake news." I suspect the other TPP representatives were very good at "keeping up appearances," and projecting their OWN images. "The leaders of 10 Pacific nations have better things to do than wait around on JT." Well, that's been Canada's self-denigrating attitude about a lot of international stuff for decades. But wait a sec. You believe the "foreign press" right? Then how do you square "better things to do" with the allegedly-overheard reaction on the PM's no-show? The one that goes, "We're screwed"? They couldn't give a damn then I'm puzzled by that...

I can wear a cross around my neck anywhere I want in Quebec. What are you talking about?

Ah, the thought process of a young Canadian liberal, isn't it a sight to behold? It starts with "wow, imagine if we could..." and quickly sprouts into "all we need to do is take from everyone else to enact my vision of perfect harmony!".

Fake news? Who's the source of this news?

You guys have to get on the same page. Elsewhere here, John K is lamenting the fact that the building owner can now make money with cash crops on the roof. You crazy guys are fun to watch!

Do you really believe that "whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven" means that the Church can get people off-the-hook for sins they haven't repented, or are you just arguing to be vexatious? And if you do believe this what does it mean for questions of free will, death, judgement, heaven, and hell? And did Christ have his fingers crossed behind his back ("just kidding! My friends will wave their hands and it'll all be OK") when He called sinners to repentance?

That is a scurrilous attempt to blacken the name of Cardinal Newman who being dead cannot defend himself from such defamatory accusations. The fact that you cannot conceive of love being anything other than erotic/sexual tells us more about you than anything else.

I also was sorry to hear about Louis C.K. His appearance in Comedian in Cars getting Coffee with Jerry Seinfield was really outstanding. He talked about his 2 kids with such affection, and seemed very endearing. I feel bad for his family.

That is not the cleanest air Puma, it is waste diversion and similar stuff.....which btw is fantastic...... and I certainly ain't anti-Alberta, they are hard working fellow Canadians.

Great comments, Ms. Smith and Seder! Other commenters may be surprised to learn that undocumented immigrants pay taxes - and that Colorado stands to lose an estimated $1.3 billion (yes, billion) if all undocumented Coloradans were to be deported. And being present in the U.S. without authorization is not a crime - it's a civil offense. On the other hand, re-entering the country after receiving a valid deportation order is a criminal offense. And it's not easy becoming a citizen - it can be very costly and take decades. As a country, we've been sending mixed messages - we want cheap goods and services, but when undocumented workers get caught, the employers get a slap on the wrist while immigrant families are torn apart. And we already have a shortage of workers due to recent hurricanes - deporting workers will make recovery longer. We are a nation of laws AND a nation of equity and compassion. Equity and compassion should guide us while we fix our broken immigration system.

Flynn's obnoxious kid - Michael "Pizzagate Conspiracy Theory" Flynn Jr - is under Mueller's microscope and has a lot to hide. His daddy will sing like a bird to keep his progeny from spending a decade or so in Levinworth being Bubba's house boy.

Jim Crow laws, yes.

Hamper is in there for attempts to kill a cop. His mother is an enabler. Hamper was threatening these men as well. This suspension is just more gross exaggeration from O'Malley's orifice, er, office.

As a teachers aide my job was to get Gary, my cousin by marriage, nephew, to draw a square. That's it. Not ABC and 123, just draw a square. When he tried he drew a something resembling a circle. After 3 months he finally drew one, and was damn proud. He's never drawn another square again in his life. he, like the vast majority of his peers, are incapable of learning, and will always need watched over. To pretend otherwise is deluded educated fools fooling themselves as they believe these dysfunctional children should be in the main school system where their dysfunction is causing serious problems for students who are capable of learning. and yet these same educated wonders are the ones that removed me from the main schools, and put me in Alternative Education. The hypocrisy is staggering but expected,

For some time journalists have noted the Liberal's arrogance and smug superiority. But until recently people have not noticed how Liberal conceit is identical to (and in fact stems from) the way the wealthy elite look at the plebeians of the world.

All Catholics should fear and loathe sin, going against the will of God, part of which was written in the biological design of the body. Would that we fear offending God a bit more, yeah John? We've become expert at shrinking the will of God around our preferences and wants.

Yay, ya, and if Trump had of been tough with China, perhaps rescinding a few trade deals or imposing import duties, you would have been all over him for that. That's the trouble with news organizations that allow their bias to permeate all of its content; it becomes harder and harder to believe anything it says.

Why do we have a family reunification option at all?! Everyone who immigrates should apply fully and meet canada's language, technical and educational standards/needs! We do not need more old people in this country just because many wish to bring their parents and other old relatives over. In the past immigrants came, worked hard, learned the language without government help and with no intention of reuniting with family. If they wanted to see their family they hoped on a ship or plane and visited their place of birth. My parents and many others were like this. Why do these people expect to be able to get Canada to bend over backwards for them? And the immigration consultant industry is a sham that should be closed! I do agree the entire application plus all appeals should take no more than 10-14 months max. With no reapplication allowed to for 3 years. Time for the feds to put money and resources into the backlog. In fact scrap both investor and family reunification immigration.

Bill 62 is not about just citizenship ceremony. And the ceremony does not matter, citizenship is a process with paperwork and uncovering to a female immigration official. Too bad the government of the day left out those details. Why inform the public when there is an agenda ? Try not to be taken in next time

Oh, I believe the no-show might indeed send a "good message." Now, was the message intended? And if so, why? And what might now be the consequences? THAT's what most of us are guessing about.

Obviously you're not or never was a firefighter.....thank goodness

Heaven knows that the Pope means well.But we all know this is an all or none proposition. Either every last nation gives up on nuclear arms in a totally verifiable way or nothing will change. Unilateral nuclear disarmament simply isn’t going to happen.

The "law of the hammer" with this author. Don't hold your breath waiting for him to suggest a single thing Trump has, is, or will ever do that could in any way be correct, or good or reasonable. He is a polemicist.

White suburbanite, you know nothing about urban anything.

All of these deals are negotiated by professionals in every country before the politicians show up. Harper no more sat at the table than do Trudeau or Trump.

I actually received an e-mail this week offering me $2.5 million for my personal information and help in recovering money! It used to come from Nigeria; now it is coming out of the Baltics, apparently. They started showing up after I used Wi-Fi in Europe last year. Block and ignore is about all you can do!

In light of Ms. Wente's excellent points, let's consider our three options for government at the federal level. It's beyond obvious that both the Conservatives and the Liberals are bought and paid for by the 1%ers. AFAIK, the NDP are not taking bags of cash from 1%ers, or rather the 1%ers aren't offering the NDP any bags of cash. However, I still don't know if that means I'll vote NDP because I'm not sure the NDP has the wherewithal to put a stop to this even if elected with a majority. To plug all the loopholes you'd need more than just political will. You'd need an army of lawyers and accountants at least as devious as the ones who've been working for decades to hide away the fortunes of these modern day robber barons. The 1%ers have had a big head-start.

Thank you Mike. Very much appreciated ! Here’s cams video link for anyone who’s curious. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rsDEL891ApA

Nope. Never proven guilty. Just disbarred by a Judge who took perjury personally. And of course he did pay-up in the civil suit....

Helping a European country fend off an aggressor is something Canadians have done before. Resisting the neo-fascists in power in Moscow is a good and necessary thing.

Contribution limit. Too bad so sad, thought you did not like government deficits?

The "magic" of privatization. If it is losing money, it is going to get shut down. Period. Maybe they should be looking at building a road?

Or proven, for that matter, but keep up the lies.
