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...

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...

The 1 good thing cheaters do for us

Nothing good could come of a relationship marred by infidelity, right? The heartache, the shock, the feeling of one's trust being violated. In the short-term, being cheated on can turn one's world upside down. But eventually, there may be a light awaiting the cheated at the end of the tunnel. If you really think about it, cheaters end up doing us a huge favor. In their selfishness and disloyalty, they end up showing us that we deserve better. If you're so unfortunate as to be a victim of such acts of betrayal, you can only hope the cheater is considerate enough to own up to their missteps. But we all know full well that, in many cases, the cheater is either caught in the act or leaves behind a trail of hints that ultimately culminates in their undoing. The more classy thing to do is to discuss their feelings openly with their partner before straying. If all talks lead to an impasse or a further escalation of tensions, both parties should take it as a ...
