Protesters With Opposite Views Find Common Ground

A faith-based protest got heated outside of the Charlotte Convention Center Wednesday morning, when a demonstrator accused America of moving away from God. "The Democratic National Convention has come to the conclusion that they don't need God anymore," said Reverand Flip Benham, bellowing into the megaphone at the Operation Save America demonstration. Other protesters holding signs that condemn abortion, homosexuality and other Biblical sins supported Benham, the director of Operation Save America.

North Carolina must strengthen inadequate mandatory reporting law

The Freeh investigation into Penn State’s sexual abuse scandal shed cold light on the dark circumstances surrounding Jerry Sandusky’s rape and assault of 10 young boys over a 15-year period, an unthinkable series of crimes that also besmirched the legend of the late Joe Paterno and the football program that rose and fell as he did.
