IF YOU THINK GIRLS SHOULD GET THE CHANCE TO GO TO SCHOOL...

 Read this;
On April 16, 234 girls between the ages of 16 and 18 were kidnapped from their school in Chibok, Nigeria during the night as they prepared for their final exams. Most are still missing.

Though no group has claimed responsibility, the Boko Haram jihadist network is believed to be behind it. The group’s name translates to “Western education is forbidden” and seeks to destroy anything that does not agree with strict interpretation of Islamic texts, such as the idea of a spherical Earth, evolution, or the water cycle. Education of women is also forbidden. They have a history of violence in the area and have killed more than 1,500 people already this year in a series of attacks against schools, mosques, villages, military installations, and public areas.

All people including females have the right to an education, to learn how to read and write and no-one, has the right to forbid this. The men responsible for these crimes are nothing more than misogynist, hate filled miscreants with the mental capacity of a slugworm who use their religion and twist it to suit themselves. They should be made an example of - a public lashing and 20 years of solitary confinement wouldn't be a bad idea for these disgraceful excuses for human beings.

An unidentified mother cries out during a demonstration with others who have daughters among the kidnapped school girls of government secondary school Chibok, Tuesday April 29, 2014, in Abuja, Nigeria. Two weeks after Islamic extremists stormed a remote boarding school in northeast Nigeria, more than 200 girls and young women remain missing despite a “hot pursuit” by security forces and desperate parents heading into a dangerous forest in search of their daughters. Some dozens have managed to escape their captors, jumping from the back of an open truck or escaping into the bush from a forest hideout, although the exact number of escapees is unclear.

Leaving Babies/Children In Cars

Listening to the radio last week, a lady rang in saying she saw a young baby left in a car unattended in a shopping centre, the baby was distressed and crying. She stayed by the car. A "good samaritan" was able to get the baby out of the car, police were called, eventually the parents were located. The baby is 3 months old. When they were asked how long had the baby been left in the car, they replied only about an hour. According to the caller, the parents didn't seem bothered.

How can parents be so irresponsible?

It can take as little as 15 minutes in an overheated car for a child to suffer life-threatening brain or kidney injuries.

When body temperature reaches 40°C (104°F) internal organs shut down. At 41.6° (107°F), children die.


Today I'm shocked to read "Paramedics have been called to 19 cases of children being locked in cars in the past two days." We have temperatures of 43° (110 F) and idiots still leave their children in cars.

"Ambulance Victoria's plea for parents to stop leaving children in cars alone is one of several health warnings as Victoria prepares to swelter through another 40-plus degree day.

AV spokesman Paul Bentley told Ross and John there were case eight cases during yesterday's 43 degree heat and 11 on Monday"

""Some days there are more deliberate acts, like on Monday (when a father) left four children in the car when he went in the bottle shop," he said."

""There are others where mum and dad are quickly getting the children in car, leave the keys on the front seat ... and accidentally lock the child in the car."

What is wrong with these people? Somebody should lock these adults in cars in 43 degree heat and see how they like it, maybe then they wouldn't do it.
