The Bushites are bullies and for a long time nobody dared criticize them and just swallowed their propaganda and lies. People have become scared. In this kind of climate, nobody is interested in the critical voice. You ask about the role of the intellectual in America today and I have to say: What role? What intellectuals? There is no room for them in the simplified and dumbed down world of today's media. We used to play a role, and there are still a few left, but we are a dying breed. Nobody seems to be interested in nuance anymore."

HRC shop hit with armed robber

An unidentified gunman on Jan. 18 bound and blind-folded an employee at the Human Rights Campaign’s Action Center and Store near Dupont Circle after hitting him repeatedly in the head with a pistol and forcing him to turn over money from a cash register and safe, according to a D.C. police report. Sgt. Tania Bell, supervisor of the police department’s Gay & Lesbian Liaison Unit (GLLU), which is investigating the incident, said the crime appears to be a random holdup and no evidence exists to indicate the gunman targeted the store because it is a gay business. "There’s no evidence to suggest this was a hate crime," Bell said. No other employees or customers were present at the HRC store at 1633 Connecticut Ave., N.W., at the time the gunman entered about 7 p.m., on Friday, Jan.

Of course, people die young all the time, and sometimes through overdoses or some other health issue. But since so many people have been entertained by younger actors' work, it's easy to notice their death more than others who may not have been famous when they died.

One of the hardest non-family member deaths I had ever had to endure was that of my best friend growing up. His name was Aaron, and he literally lived in a house just behind mine on a different street. It was always fun to hang out with Aaron, because not only was he someone who cared deeply about his friends and treated his friends like kings whenever they were around, but he also had the biggest yard in the neighborhood which was great especially for a kid like me whose total yard is about the size of most people's closets.
