Apparantly Trump is smart for not paying taxes...

Tonight's debate in a nutshell. Stick a fork in him, he's done.
Hillary had him on the defensive all night, and had no health problems at all from the look of it.

Innocents attacked by the rioters in Charlotte


Is this really beneficial to the cause? All I see it doing is driving more whites to white supremacist thinking.

Dearborn Hts Michigan man murders his four children because his wife filed for divorce

Dear lord, what is wrong with our country and justice system?

1-Why was this monster released to begin with? He stabbed a pregnant woman to death. Should have been life with no parole. Knowing our country they probably let him out to make room for some guy who was growing/selling weed.

2-Why did the new wife marry him? He served time for killing his pregnant wife. Do you really wanna risk your family marrying a piece of trash like that?

3-Again...WHY was he released in the first place? Stabbing pregnant women to death isn't something that you have a change of heart and reform from. It's a get locked up until you die kinda thing.

4-At this point I would simply recommend the death penalty for this guy. He's proven that he'll never reform and will kill, and kill again if given the chance. He's broken, cannot be fixed and there's no point in wasting resources keeping him breathing.

DEARBORN HEIGHTS, Mich. (WJBK) - The man authorities say is behind the deaths of four children in a Dearborn Heights home is expected to be in court Thursday morning.

Gregory Green, 49, is expected to be arraigned on murder charges.

Police in Dearborn Heights say a man called 911 around 1:30 a.m., saying he had just killed his family.

Police arrived at the home on Hipp Street and found Green standing on the front porch. Inside the home, they found the deceased bodies of four children. Their mother was also found seriously injured.

Police say Green was the biological father of two of the children found dead, and the stepfather to the teens who were found dead.

Four-year-old Kaleigh Green and 5-year-old Koi Green were found dead from apparent carbon monoxide poisoning from a vehicle. Seventeen-year-old Kara Allen and 19-year-old Chadney Allen were found dead with multiple gunshot wounds.

The children's mother, Faith Green, 39, was found bound and bleeding. Authorities say Green bound her, cut her face with a box cutter and shot her in the foot, and then shot her two older children in front of her.

Previously, in 1991, Green pleaded no contest to killing his then-wife, who was six months pregnant, by stabbing her to death. After he did so, he called police, told them what he had done and waited for them to arrive and let them in. This took place in Detroit at his home.

In this latest alleged incident, Prosecutor Kym Worthy is charging Green with four counts of first-degree murder; one count of assault; one count of torture; one count of unlawful imprisonment; one count of felonious assault; and one count of felony firearm.

Clinton Losing Millennial Support Nationally and in Key States

Personally I don't think this will matter too much (Because probably a lot of them are just gonna vote Johnson), but what are DU's thoughts on this issue? What can Hillary do to attract more millennials and make them feel like she represents them?

IMO she needs to take a greater interest in raising the minimum wage, dealing with high tuition costs, reigning in big pharma and take some kind of assertive stance on cannabis decriminalization.

Father beats his 21 month old daughter to death out of jelousy

REALLY getting sick of this demented shit. This comes right after reading about that trailer trash mother who went online looking for people to rape and kill her daughter while she watched. How exactly do people get so sick in the head to begin with? I feel like it's a cop out blaming it all on drugs or prior abuse.

"Ryan Lawrence, 25, pleaded guilty Thursday to first-degree murder in a plea deal with Onondaga County prosecutors. Lawrence admitted beating to death his 21-month-old daughter Maddox outside Syracuse in February. Authorities say he burned the girl's body in a fire pit, then tied the remains to a cinder block that he dumped in Onondaga Creek in Syracuse.
