Unthinkable...

Mama Kat always has thought provoking writing prompts and usually I'm too lazy to post even though I look at the prompts every week!! Well, this week I decided to post because one prompt in particular caught my attention...

and the winner is #3 - Tell us about a local news story that's all the buzz right now in your neck of the woods.

The first thing that came to mind is that Jay Cuttler left the Broncos and the hype surrounding the new QB... BORING!! I'll start to care when football season actually starts.

The real story around here is about a murder in Greeley, CO that took place this past summer. The trial is starting soon and jury selection is underway. The reason there has been so much press is because it is being considered a hate crime. A man met this girl online and after they went out ended up back at her place. Little did he know, but was soon to find out, that biologically, she was a he. The guy then beat her to death with a fire extinguisher. I hope he gets the maximum sentence because of this sick sick crime. I don't care if you think being gay/transgender/etc is wrong or right; KILLING someone is ALWAYS wrong.
