Capital Punishment
It is my personal belief that capital punishment should be much more strick. I'm talking about public beatings and removal of limbs for certain crimes. I also think that the death penalty should be carried out immediately after the sentence. Right after the judge says guilty the criminal should be drug out behind the court house and executed. The crime rate in countries that use these harsh punishments is almost zero, compared to crime riddled countries like America. Those opposed to this...well why. Unless you are planning to commit a crime what do you have to lose with this change.

Super Powers
If I could have super powers they would be as follows. I would like to first have psychic powers, like Professor Xavior and Jean Grey from The X-men, combined. Then I would have the healing powers and super senses of wolverine. As if thats not enough power i would like to have the magnetic abilities of Magneto and the control of fire like pyro. I would like to also have colosses's powers and cyclops's power. I think thats it. Well actually this cake needs some icing so I think I would like to have the powers of shadow cat and night crawler. Ok and the wolverine adamantium skeleton complete with the claws and everything. I thinks thats it. Ok i thought it over and i would like to have ice mans powers as well. I heard once that he subtracts the cold from the air to make ice and if he learned how to do the opposite he could make fire. Thats pretty much it. I dont think I would turn to a life of crime but I would definately be rich. I would probably fight crime or just prevent it all together.

Tiger Woods...Black Enough to be Lynched?
As if his racial identity hasn't been talked about enough, Tiger Woods has been the butt of a tasteless lynching joke.
Faldo said, "To take Tiger on, well yeah, they should just gang up for a while until ..."
"Lynch him in a back alley," Tilghman interrupted with a chuckle.
Please take note that Faldo is not at fault here. Tilghman is the idiot who thought it funny to throw in a lynching reference. Why not throw in an Asian joke too because Tilghman only offended half of Tigger' racial identity? Would it have been as big of a deal if there had been an Asian joke made about internment camps? How would people react to that? This goes to show that race is still a prevelent issue in America. Why was this on the forefront of Tilghman' mind?
