"No. Before they are allowed to walk away from the border checkpoint and enter Canada, all asylum seekers who cross illegally (and are therefore arrested) undergo what officials describe as a “thorough risk assessment.” That includes fingerprinting, criminal record checks, gathering of biometri... |

Evidently, word has spread globally that Canada will take in every broke illiterate on the planet, as long as they jump the border. Now it seems that there are thousands and thousands of Haitians in Mexico, hoping to sneak into Canada and get money, food, medical care and housing. Prime Minister Sel... |

Mind Blown. UPDATE 5/21/13: Two years and nine months after the Nanny Dog Myth Revealed was first published, BAD RAP, a major pit bull advocacy group publicly announced that it will no longer support the Nanny Dog myth because it endangers children. While it is too late for many children, hopefully... |

They were also bred to guard children and used to be called "Nanny dogs". Apparently, they were better at it than Mary Poppins. I've always been a dog lover, and somehow ended up running an ad hoc pit rescue because nobody else wanted them. They were mostly seized from drug dealers, but yo... |

FFS its a company not a country. If they took away bacon and ham here, they'd have no customers. Who in hell likes turkey in a sandwich unless its a clubhouse? I hate turkey. The sad part is they all copy each other and try to underprice by a nickel to get the market share. Hopefully Sam's sandwich... |
