Really?? NRA Youth Magazine Ad Advocates Weapons For Children And Inside BB Gun Shooting

More random ridiculousness courtesy of the NRA…. New NRA Youth Magazine Promotes Indoor BB Gun Use For Children Despite the increasing number of  numerous reports of school-aged children becoming both victims and suspects of gun violence across the United States, the National Rifle Association continues to think it’s a great idea for children to have access to weapons. via Think Progress The National Rifle Association (NRA)’s overtures to children have come under fire after its annual conference last week, which advertised weapons for children and advocated storing firearms in kids’ rooms just on the heels of the fatal shooting of a two year old by her five year old brother. A ThinkProgress review of the NRA children’s magazine, InSights, found another piece of disturbing advice: kids should build target ranges inside their homes. The article, “BB, It’s Cold Outside,” ran in the January 2013 edition of InSights. The spread features a picture of a young-looking boy holding a BB gun next to a fireplace, and is addressed to children who are “shooting a real gun now” but can’t wait to practice until it’s warm enough outside to make firing one fun. The NRA article recommends that, instead, the child build a home BB gun range to keep up. What the hell???

Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux: Pushing Back Wedding Due to Brangelina?

Jennifer Aniston’s summer wedding plans with fiance Justin Theroux are reportedly on hold … because of Brad Pitt’s own plans to marry Angelina Jolie. Neither couple has confirmed they even have a date set, but that’s still what Us is reporting today in its new issue. One of their sources claims: “She does not want her day associated with them, and Justin got weirded out anyway by all the rushing. Nothing has happened on that front in a month.” Not that the couple is on the verge of a split. She and Justin Theroux have been redecorating the $21 million Bel Air mansion, which they just acquired. Still, “She has been cranky from this stress,” an insider says. “Justin’s never seen her like this and wants her to chill.” Aniston and Theroux got engaged on the actor’s 41st birthday last year, after more than a year of dating. She’s called him a “protector,” a “good human being,” and “so funny.” Here’s hoping they weather this modest rough patch. As for Pitt, he and Aniston were married from 2000-2005, when he met Jolie. The rest is history there. Brangelina got engaged last year as well. Both high-profile couples have been the subject of many wedding rumors, but it doesn’t appear that nuptials are truly imminent on either front.

Amanda Knox Interview: Diane Sawyer Learns Her Side of the Story

Amanda Knox’s side of the story is … a long story. ABC’s Diane Sawyer is the first to get it since she was cleared of murdering roommate Meredith Kercher several years after being found guilty. Amanda Knox Interview With Diane Sawyer Released on an appeal and having completed her memoir Waiting to be Heard , Knox is now awaiting a re-trial in the case that has defined her life. Amanda Knox sat down with Sawyer for the special A Murder. A Mystery. Amanda Knox Speaks , and also spoke with GMA on the same network. Here are some of her most notable comments: On casual sex: “It was an adventure of self-hood … I thought that’s what all self-confident free-spirited women did, and at that point, I still felt like a clueless girl.” On her alibi, and boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito : “We had dinner. We watched a movie. We smoked. We had sex. We were together. I smoked a joint with him.” “What that did to my memories was it made them less concrete, but it didn’t black them out and it didn’t change them. We stayed in the whole night.” “He was faced with the prospect of not having a sentence if he just blamed me and he didn’t because he couldn’t live with a decision like that.” “I had known him for seven days.” Amanda Knox on Good Morning America On her non-confession: “I didn’t confess. I was interrogated. They acted like my answers were wrong. They told me I was wrong, that I didn’t remember correctly.” “And if I didn’t, I would never see my family.” “I wasn’t providing a lot of the detail. They were asking me if I had heard Meredith scream, and when I said I didn’t remember, they said, ‘How could you not remember that she screamed?’” “And I said, ‘Okay, I guess I remember that she screamed.’ It was all like that.” On how she did not clean her DNA out of Kercher’s room: ”That’s impossible. It’s impossible to see DNA, much less identify whose DNA it is.” On how the prison lied to her about a serious medical condition: “The doctor told me that I had tested positive for HIV. I was stunned.” “I went back to my room with one of the prison officials telling me, ‘Well, you should’ve thought about it before you had sex with all those people.’” On friends and family sticking by her: “I felt incredibly guilty for what they were having to sacrifice for me, and there was a certain point in my thinking in prison that if it didn’t work out and I never was free again, I was trying to figure out how I could ask them to move on with their life without me because I was tired of them having to sacrifice everything for me.” “I have to be ready to fight and defend myself.”

Friends to Selena Gomez: Stay Away from Justin Bieber!

By all (Instagram) accounts, Selena Gomez is back together with Justin Bieber. At least according to this sexy, shirtless photo of Bieber and his young lady love from the weekend. But an anonymous friend of Selena’s tells The Sun that Bieber is nothing but bad news, and pals plan on doing all they can to stop this reconciliation in its tracks. “We did everything we could to keep them apart but he was so persistent,” this Gomez insider tells the newspaper. “It’s really unhealthy they have such a turbulent relationship at such a young age.” The friend adds that Justin often leaves Selena in “floods of tears,” which may explain why Gomez came across as a tad bitter over the past few weeks. Heck, she told David Letterman that she was the one to make Bieber cry . “She has had a really difficult year or so dealing with the tense emotions that come with dating him. We thought she had finally broken free,” says the acquaintance. “But he has persuaded her to take him back again. There’s not much we can do about it – but we are going to try.” What do you think? Should Justin and Selena get back together?   Yes, they are meant to be! No, he doesn’t deserve her! No, she doesn’t deserve him! View Poll »

Britney Spears Has A Serious Badonkadonk

So a couple weeks ago, I pointed out Britney Spears ‘ legs had gotten a little bigger. But judging from these new pictures, it looks like all that junk moved into her trunk over the past 10 days. I had no idea Britney had been covering up a badonkadonk like this. It must be from all that healthy eating she does at McDonald’s and Target. Either way, I’d definitely have a piece of that booty as part of a balanced diet. Tasty.

FBI Blasts Media in Statement, Confirms No Arrest Made in Boston Bombing Case

Forget breaking news reports. Both CNN and Fox were called out this afternoon by the FBI for broken news reports in claiming that a Boston bombing arrest had been made and authorities had a suspect in custody. Those reports are false. CNN even went so far as to claim a “dark-skinned male” was spotted walking away from the scene in video footage, while Fox News “confirmed” that an arrest had been made. The Associated Press said that a “subject was in custody.” 4Chan, meanwhile, purports to have isolated a suspect on camera . In response to these erroneous assertions making it to air and print, the FBI has released a statement that takes the outlets to task: “Contrary to widespread reporting, no arrest has been made in connection with the Boston Marathon attack. Over the past day and a half, there have been a number of press reports based on information from unofficial sources that has been inaccurate. “Since these stories often have unintended consequences, we ask the media, particularly at this early stage of the investigation, to exercise caution and attempt to verify information through appropriate official channels before reporting.” Somewhere, Aaron Sorkin is writing a killer episode of The Newsroom Season 3 in response to this nonsense.
