Well, this is an odd case. What do you think? I think the 2 other children are part of a kidnapping ring.

My personal favorite are the New World Order ones which state that the Prince of Wales is the antiChrist and will lead the NWO. Several books "document" this theory, byt my favorite is The AntiChrist and a Cup of Tea.

Victims hidden from view

feeds@yuku.com (Georgia Mommy) — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 20:55:48 GMT
Over the years, there have been sensationalized stories of kidnap victims who were held prisoner, sometimes for years. (Even a book and movie...The Butterfly Collector.) But there have been at least 3 horrific cases in the last year. What the heck?

Do y'all follow these accounts? I am horror struck. But what really disturbs me is the almost inevitable conclusion I have drawn that these are only the ones who have been discovered. How many other children and women are there out...

36 Kids Jailed In Michigan Over This Summer for Violent Murders

feeds@yuku.com (4mykidz) — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 22:36:44 GMT
The young man murdered as discussed in the article below was a middle school friend of DD. He was a sweet kid with lots of friends, and scheduled to start college yesterday, but instead his viewings started. Tomorrow DD will be attending his funeral.

When you read the second article, you really have to wonder what is going on in Metro Detroit Area. I am glad that the article notes that there are no barriers, racial, class, or otherwise to define why this may be happening so...

Do you re-read old posts and threads?

feeds@yuku.com (LavendernOldJeans) — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 09:24:24 GMT
I do because I enjoy seeing the changes, need to re-read to bounce threads for current interest/issues, and just for fun.

Do you think Michael Jackson was murdered?

feeds@yuku.com (LavendernOldJeans) — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 09:30:27 GMT
First of all, I despise Michael Jackson for his pedophilia as well as other acts.

I think he has gotten away with many things. At most he is pitiable, but I don't have much pity for him.

I think Michael Jackson has never had to take responsibility for his actions. Now, even in his death, a lot of pressure is being placed to ensure he doesn't have to take responsibility for the actions leading to his own death.

It doesn't matter that he was a musician....
