Newspaper cuttings

IT CANT HAPPEN HERE

How often have you read about something in the newspaper and refused to believe it? Or found something really amusing?

It happens to Kurt all the time, and he decided to take cuttings of stories that interest him for whatever reason. There's a lot of stuff here, some of it shocking, some of it really funny; he has commented on some cuttings.

All cuttings are from the Metro newspaper (Feb - Dec 2005). Kurt decided to limit himself to just one year because the number of shocking stories seemed to be increasing and he thinks he has made his point: there is all sorts of shit going down all the time. If you close your eyes to the everyday reality of rape, murder, prostitution, abduction, torture, trafficking and abuse, you are in for a rude shock when it happens to you or someone you know. And do not blame the messenger when he shines a spotlight on this distasteful, squirming truth.
