“It’s Mercy, Compassion, and Forgiveness I Lack. Not Rationality”

By Bwog Staff on Mar 06, 2011 5 Comments

So it would seem, judging by some of the kill reports on CU Assassin’s website.

Outside the Law School, two female adolescents: “Wait, where’s NYU?” Overheard on campus, “uptown”: “I’m going downtown today, to 96th Street.” Two CPJ conference attendees standing by the gates spot Alan Brinkley leaving campus: “See that man there?
