1. Enjoy school, Malala!

I have the feeling you're going to do great things in life.

2. Inspiring young woman, but the dark lesson from her story

is that Pakistan isn't safe for girls and women who stand up for their rights.

Her future is in England, not Pakistan.

4. I am relieved she isn't in Pakistan. Isn't that sad? Theocracies suck.

5. WONDERFUL, inspiring young woman

I hear she's been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. They sure could and HAVE chosen folks a whole hell of a lot less deserving of that honor than Malala is. She's got my (nonexistent) vote! Ms Bigmack
