Yes, in my country it is. Why don't you try to contribute something instead of attacking the messenger?

They refused to grant an order of protection for a woman who was being abused by her husband. Read the story, Knucklehead. It's effing despicable.

Butchery robbed twice in one day

Three people were injured when robbers struck a central Johannesburg butchery twice in one day.

In the early hours of Monday morning, robbers smashed two walls and the back door of the TS Meat Spot butchery at the corner of Sauer and Jeppe streets in the Joburg CBD. The men made off with equipment worth thousands of rands and an undisclosed amount of cash.

As if that wasn't enough, eight hours later a group of about eight armed men hit the butchery again, this time leaving three staff members injured. A suspect was wounded by police gunfire while fleeing the scene.

I didn't attack the "messenger".

I did a question.

I find that "Abuses of Law and Power by Courts" are daily news in the USA, not that much shocking news.

I did a question once, and all I got was a colon.

Here's the developed story:

Girl who went into coma after dental treatment dies

September 27, 2006

A five-year-old Chicago girl who never awoke from her sedation during a visit to the dentist died Wednesday at Children's Memorial Hospital, a hospital official said.

Kindergartner Diamond Brownridge had been in a coma and on life support since the weekend dental treatment.

She died Wednesday afternoon, said Julie Pesch, a spokeswoman for Children's Memorial Hospital.

Family members have said Diamond received a triple dose of sedatives -- an oral agent, an intravenous drug and nitrous oxide gas -- during Saturday's exam at Little Angel Dental, a storefront clinic in the city's Little Village neighborhood.

The girl was having two cavities filled and caps placed on her lower front teeth.

Ommettress Travis, the girl's mother, has said she was asked to leave the room during the half-hour procedure. She said when she returned, her daughter was lying in the dental chair, not breathing.

State records show the girl's dentist, Hicham Riba, was licensed in the state in 1997.
