My name is Kaylin and I thought that I would never ever meet…

My name is Kaylin and I thought that I would never ever meet Justin Bieber. I started supporting Justin back in March 2010 and have supported him through everything. When the second leg of the North American dates were announced in December, I was apprehensive to ask my mom if I could go to see him in Des Moines, IA. I felt bad because I was going to see him in Chicago at the Jingle Bash in a little less than a week. My mom knew the next time I saw Justin I wanted meet and greets so she told me while I was at school she would try her best to get them. While I was at school, she texted me during lunch and told me that the meet and greets sold out so fast she couldn’t get them. I was devastated, but I wouldn’t let anyone know that. I was about to see him for the third time and I felt pretty selfish. I got home that day and just checked Ticketmaster for some cheap tickets that we could maybe get. But, my mom said no. That night, my mom and dad sat me down and talked to me about how I get good grades, have good behavior and how they knew how bad I wanted to meet Justin. Finally, they came out and said it! I was going to meet Justin Bieber on July 7th, 2013! My mom had gotten the meet and greets and had planned to surprise me a little before the concert date but couldn’t wait any longer. I BAWLED. It went crazy. I actually could not believe that I was going to meet JUSTIN BIEBER. My friend Lindsey’s (@lindseyissloth) parents had also surprised her with meet and greets to the Des Moines show so I was super excited to be able to share the experience with her. At Jingle Bash, it was so surreal to see him because I knew that the next time I’d see him I’d be meeting him. Fast forward to July, we got to the arena and checked in. I was so nervous something would go wrong but luckily everything went fine and we got our wristbands. The pre-show party was awesome and they had a ton of good food there. Lindsey and I won Justin’s glove and we literally about peed our pants. We wore it around and were just in amazement that it was actually HIS glove. Then they led us backstage and we waited in line for a long time because Justin was late. Even though we had to wait awhile, it was okay because we were backstage at Justin Bieber’s concert for crying out loud! While we were waiting in line we saw Scrappy, DJ Tay James, and Ry Good. We got a picture with Ryan and he was so nice. It was so crazy to see girls coming out of the room sobbing and I just wasn’t ready for this. Every once in a while I would get a peek of Justin and I can’t even describe the feeling of being that close to him. I practiced in my head what I was gonna say and I had it all planned out. Finally, they let me in the room. I walked up to him and said, “Hi Justin, I’m Kaylin!” and he said, “Hi sweetheart.” We took our picture and he said, “Pleasure to meet you!” I asked him for a hug and he said sure. I almost went in for a kiss on the cheek, like I literally leaned in, but I realized I probably shouldn’t because security was surrounding me. Justin said “Thanks!” and while he was saying thanks, he starting like tickling and rubbing my back. I smiled and kinda laughed and said “Thanks!” I left and couldn’t even believe it. Lindsey was after me and when she got out we were literally screaming and the guy had to tell us to be quiet. Justin put on an amazing performance. Being 3rd row and meeting Justin is an experience I wouldn’t change for the world. I am so thankful and believe me, I know this sounds so cheesy but NEVER SAY NEVER. If someone would’ve told me 3 years ago that I was meeting Justin Bieber I would never have believed them. Please don’t give up! -Kaylin (@kaylinnnxo) Go here to see the original: My name is Kaylin and I thought that I would never ever meet…

Really? Fox News Contributor Compares Same-Sex Love To “Monster” Ariel Castro’s Love For Kidnap Victims

Fox News’ Sandy Rios: LGBT Love Is Like Ariel Castro Love For Victims LGBT love is to pedophilia as _________________ is to _____________________?? Via Raw Story: In a discussion on Friday about how marriage equality and LGBT rights are responsible for gang violence in Chicago and the collapse of society, Fox News contributor and American Family Association radio host Sandy Rios and anti-LGBT evangelical pastor Erwin Lutzer compared the love LGBT couples feel for each other to pedophilia, rape and the feelings Cleveland kidnapper Ariel Castro had toward the women he imprisoned and abused. Lutzer was discoursing on a popular anti-LGBT theme, that people may feel attractions and longings for people other than their opposite sex, but “that does not mean we can simply follow our desires wherever they lead us. You know, a pedophile, I’m sure, says that he loves children. As a matter of fact he does, but you can see how destructive that love is.” Once love is no longer defined as feelings between a man and a woman, Lutzer said, “we end up where we are ending up today, with a great slide in morality, the destruction of the family, the confusion that children grow up with.” Rios agreed with Lutzer’s sentiments, saying, “You know, the gentleman that was just sentenced yesterday for holding those women hostage in Ohio, and molesting them for years and doing terrible things to them, his defense was that he ‘loved’ his family, he ‘loved’ his child that was born out of one of the rapes that he did of one of those women. He ‘loved’ and he couldn’t understand. He said, ‘I’m not a monster.’” Fox News folks stay out of pocket… Continue reading

Chicago Woman Dies After Being Beaten To Death With Sledgehammer A Chicago woman who was killed during a domestic violence incident reportedly died from injuries caused by being beaten with a sledgehammer. via Chicago Tribune A 39-year-old woman was killed in an apparent domestic incident in Addison overnight, according to police and sources. Police responded to the 900 block of North Craig Place to investigate a domestic disturbance at 3:12 a.m. Friday, Addison police said in a statement. Police were not releasing any other information except to say that it was an isolated incident. The Cook County medical examiner’s office identified the woman as Martha Worley, who lives at the address where the incident occurred. Sources said the woman was beaten with a sledgehammer and at least one other person was stabbed in the throat. Sources indicated that the offender was also injured and hospitalized.
