Fortunately, student activists at the University of Texas at Austin are passing around dildos to act as 12-inch icebreakers to get the students talking about campus laws. A group called Cocks Not Glocks is giving realistically sculpted rubber companions to the student body, asking people to carry them in protest against the state’s “campus carry” law. The university allows registered gun owners to bring their weapons to class, yet it’s still technically illegal for people to bring a dildo to campus. Cocks Not Glocks has distributed more than 5,000 dildos in the past five days, donated by sex shops, giving activist a new weapon of choice.

Instead, officials said, the taxi carrying the swimmers stopped at a Shell gas station on the Avenue of the Americas around 6 a.m. One or more of the swimmers vandalized a gas station bathroom, and a security guard brandished a gun, police said. The swimmers gave money to the manager before leaving, witnesses said.

Moments after Austin Harrouff left the restaurant, police responded to a 911 call of a stabbing attack and arrived to find the teen biting off part of a dead man’s face in the driveway of a Tequesta couple’s home, officials said. The man’s wife was found dead in the garage and a neighbor suffered multiple stab wounds.
Harrouff was charged with a double homicide and taken to a nearby hospital, where he remained in an unconscious state. Police and hospital workers have completed some tests, but have not yet found any evidence of drug use.
“He had no criminal record … he was a good kid,” Martin County Sheriff William Snyder told reporters Tuesday, adding that Harrouff had no apparent relationship to his victims and that the attack seemed to be “completely random.”
...would it have made any difference to them that a black cop was merely defending his life against a black suspect?
