| SEARCHERS returned from the forests and fields Sunday night, their voices hoarse from calling Autumn's name, and those who loved her the most huddled close together in Clayton, holding fast to hope. Meanwhile, at 8:16 p.m., a 15-year-old Clayton boy logged onto Facebook and, along with nearly 17,000 other people across the country, clicked "Like" on the FIND AUTUMN PASQUALE page. But authorities say Justin Robinson knew exactly where Pasquale was - because he allegedly had lured her to his home on East Clayton Avenue on Saturday afternoon and then beat and strangled the seventh-grader

Comments: The Robinson brothers are said to have stolen bicycles and disassembled them for parts. It is believed that they may have killed Autumn for her bicycle.
There are no words.

The mother of the boys, who was responsible for their being charged with the homicide, was quoted as saying she cared more about the girl's family than she did her boys.
Although there are no photos, comments in the articles lead one to believe the Robinson boys are black.

Notice how the Media manipulates news, to steer everyone into thinking their way. Now if the roles were reversed. They would have put names, pictures, and even the address of the the two boys if they were white, and the girl was black. No doubt!! Where is Rev. Sharpton, and or Jackson on this one!

These killers are pure evil. They need to be put away for life, regardless of their ages.
Many people have expressed sorrow for Autumn's family. I cannot even begin to imagine how much this hurts them.
Also, I feel some sorrow for the mother of these two killers. How can she go forward knowing the absolute evil of her sons.

Evil has always been among us, but lately it seems to be more energetic. Peoples' emotions are heightened and responses to normal situations are often far stonger than required. This is especially true of those who arent wrapped too tight to start with. Better times await for those who can hold it together until this darkness passes.

These people feel impervious to the law with Obama being president. We're only seeing the high profile stories and never do you hear the term hate crime.
The left getting rid of the death penalty also contributes to this kind of cold bloodiness.

Okay, I was wrong...the killers were black. But we still need to be careful about having knee jerk reactions because of it. I still don't understand what has happened to our society. I wonder if this mother knew her sons had turned bad. Is there a father figure in their life? Probably not. Could the mother have raised them better or did she do her best but they were influenced by other bad factors? It makes you wonder what creates these kinds of monsters. I know sometimes it is the parents but sometimes parents do everything they can to raise good kids but they still turn out bad. I don't know. I am just glad the mother did turn her sons in. Poor Autumn deserved so much better. God bless her soul and her family. May she rest in peace. I hope these boys are put away for life.

The boys' father had not been with the family for seven years. Their mother recently remarried. The father did not seem surprised by what had happened and the mother turned the boys in because of what she thought was an odd post on one's Facebook page. Both parents knew of the boys past problems with the law over stolen bikes.
These kids are "incorrigibles". They have always been around, both white and black, engaging in bullying, petty and not so petty crimes, having trouble in school, and sometimes harming others. Sometimes harming their own parents. There are probably explanations for why kids some end up this way. Right now a lovely young girl is tragically dead.

When Keeairra Dashiell graduated with honors from Crenshaw High School seven years ago, she seemed headed for success. Offered admission into several top colleges, she accepted a scholarship to UC San Diego, leaving behind the often rough, inner-city world of South Los Angeles. But on Thursday, Dashiell´s talent and promise were a distant, squandered memory as the 24-year-old sat handcuffed in a downtown Los Angeles courtroom. After years of lying, she fully confessed to her role in a 2007 murder and, in a deal with prosecutors, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and attempted robbery.(Snip)Judge Michael Pastor sentenced

These are trying times. Never in the history of this country have we been so weakened and polarized by what many view as deliberate government policy. Now anti-gunners in the U.S. Congress, the Obama administration, and legislatures across the country are seeking to exploit the Newtown tragedy to promote their “gun control” agenda that envisions federal, universal background checks on gun purchases, and that could lead to gun registration and confiscation. At the same time, the increasing militarization of law enforcement, most visibly demonstrated by the growing use of massive, SWAT-type raids on businesses and individuals, sometimes with federal

“Do you have a solve for this problem?” “Let’s all focus on the build.” “That’s the take-away from today’s seminar.” Or, to quote a song that was recently a No. 1 hit in Britain, “Would you let me see beneath your beautiful?” If you find these sentences annoying, you are not alone. Each contains an example of nominalization: a word we are used to encountering as a verb or adjective that has been transmuted into a noun. (Snip) Writing packed with nominalizations is commonly regarded as slovenly, obfuscatory, pretentious or merely ugly.

Her final pep talk, given while surrounded by her Westmont College women´s basketball team before the NAIA national championship game, was her chance to say thanks. Moore thanked her team for keeping her soul alive. She thanked them for sitting in the third row for her husband´s funeral, for playing with her infant daughter in the third row of the team bus, for sharing her pain and embellishing her joy.

It is not necessarily good to be the king of a Middle Eastern country that is bereft of oil; nor is it necessarily so wonderful to be the king during the turmoil and uncertainty of the Arab Spring.

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say? Irin Carmon does a great job in Salon in laying out the bounds of propriety for when it´s appropriate to talk about a woman´s looks as a general matter.

No one is more preoccupied these days with Hillary Clinton´s 2016 plans than the Beltway political class—not even the former presidential candidate herself. To hear some tell it, her decision will be dispositive for all other Democrats thinking of entering the race. And pundits and reporters aren´t the only ones positing the "The Hillary Factor": No less than the House Democratic whip, Steny Hoyer, told BuzzFeed, “I don´t know that anybody would run against Hillary…. If she runs, she clears the field.” It´s an understandable conclusion, given Clinton´s stature in the Democratic Party and her 70 percent

According to a White House statement, the Obama administration believes the current rules allow some wealthy individuals "to accumulate many millions of dollars in these accounts, substantially more than is needed to fund reasonable levels of retirement saving."
