For today's dose of stupid I give you this... ALICE program arms children with cans & books to fight off classroom intruders http://whnt.com/2015/01/12/alice-pr...-cans-books-to-fight-off-classroom-intruders/ You’ve likely heard of students bringing canned food to school for food drives, but have you ever heard of bringing a canned food item to school for safety?

Two parents are recovering after being shot by their 3-year-old son. Police say their initial investigation leads them to believe it was an accident, but they are waiting to do a safe house interview with the boy and the woman's 2-year-old daughter before deciding if anyone should be charged. An interview with a 3-year-old boy and a 2-year-old girl. I'd buy tickets to that.
