Louis Freed report on Penn State and how it is like the WTBTS
by harleybear inwow.
louis freed (retired fbi) released a 200 plus page independant report on the culpability of the upper rants of penn state in the sandusky case and it it was not flattering!!!!!
what struct me was the reference that the university knew of the wrong doing for over 14 year and did nothing about it with the excepiton of covering it up.

Way Your JW Parents Embarrass You
by Pig inwhat did your parent do that really embarrassed you while you were in school?.
i think the thing i always hated is when my parents had to preach to my teachers.. in grade 6 we were going to watch jamanji but needed consent form because the film was pg13+ and we were 12. my mum sent me to school with a huge letter about spritism.
i was the only one out of about 45 kids who had to sit out.. .
