What this cop did is DISGUSTING!

Matthew Luckhurst, an officer in the San Antonio Police Department, has been fired for giving a homeless person a fecal sandwich. Yuck!

The five-year veteran of the force allegedly bragged to a fellow officer that he had picked up some feces, placed it in a slice of bread and put it in a Styrofoam container next to the homeless man. Police have searched for the homeless individual, but their efforts have been unsuccessful thus far.

Internal affairs was informed of the incident in July after another officer reported Luckhurst's actions to his supervisor. It was later recommended that Luckhurst be placed on indefinite suspension.

This was nothing short of a vile and disgusting act on Luckhurst's part. I have never heard of anyone -- let alone a cop responsible for upholding the law and respecting each and every citizen of the community -- do something so disgraceful. I couldn't be happier that the guy was fired.

I sincerely hope they can track the homeless man down, give him a hot meal, and help him find shelter. I also hope the man got a whiff of the fecal matter and disposed of it before even coming close to ingesting the waste.

Homeless people have enough problems to contend with: hunger; disease; having to wander dank, dangerous streets; coldness and/or wetness resulting from a lack of clothes; and so on. Giving them a fecal sandwich won't help their cause; if anything, it could make them very sick -- possibly necessitating a hospital visit.

This cop should be ashamed of himself. Not even unruly children would stoop so low. Karma will surely kick him in the rear end for what he did. I'd be shocked if he didn't lose his badge for good. Any police department in the country would be crazy to hire Luckhurst in light of his outrageous, unseemly behavior.

What's your take? Do you agree this cop's actions are inconceivable?

Do you have Isolophilia? Find out...

You're probably asking yourself, "What in the world does Isolophilia mean?" It sounds like it would be something negative, doesn't it?  After all, words that end in "philia" (e.g., pedophilia) tend to involve things we want nothing to do with. But Isolophilia isn't something all people deplore. In fact, introverts like me welcome it. Put simply, Isolophilia is defined as having a strong affinity for solitude. It describes a person who relishes being alone. While extroverts can only take so much solitude, we introverts find that it rejuvenates us. In order to recharge our batteries, we need to retreat to a quiet environment where we we're left alone to rest and/or gather our thoughts. Extroverts, on the other hand, become bored and drained when they're alone for a lengthy period of time. Social interaction is the fuel that drives them. So while an extrovert would probably do anything to avoid feelings of Isolophilia in most cases, an...

Women vs. Men: Who likes to backstab more?

Whether it's on TV or in the workplace, the general consensus seems to be that women gossip, backstab, and stir up more conflict than men do. But, as with every other topic, I thought it only fair to put this so-called stereotype under the microscope. If you watch reality shows like Celebrity Apprentice, you'll notice it's the women who spend far more time bickering. While the men do at times become embroiled in tit for tat, it's the women who are portrayed as meaner and more hostile. In the workplace, I have noticed that women seem to gossip far more than their male counterparts. I haven't really seen any cases where a person blatantly backstabs the other, but I have caught both men and women in little white lies. If it is true that women are generally more into backstabbing and gossiping than men, why is this the case? I believe that it isn't fair to make a blanket statement like "all women play these games while all men keep to themselves and pre...

No response from someone IS a response

Make no mistake about it: When you don't get a response from someone -- whether they fail to answer your texts or return your phone calls -- it is  still a response, and a powerful one at that. When a person fails to respond, it's a direct reflection of their interest -- or lack thereof -- in the relationship. Few things are more aggravating than having to hound a partner, friend, or relative for some sort of reply after we've reached out to them. Yes, we get busy from time to time, but that doesn't give anyone the right to leave the other person hanging. A terse text with something like "Been busy, will reach out soon" doesn't say much, but at least it shows some effort to bring the other person up to speed on why they've fallen off the radar. Failing to provide a response for weeks -- if not months -- communicates that you are just not a priority, and that you'll have to wait your turn to get this individual's attention. This is n...
