What a scrape

Last night at prayer meeting before youth group, a friend of mine shared about something that happened to him during the past week.
He was jumped by three guys, one of whom had a gun. He handed everything over, and then they said they couldn't have him telling anyone about this. It didn't look good.
That was when a van with four undercover cops suddenly pulled up and arrested the muggers. My friend got away unhurt and safe.
Now, he's concerned about what he has to do next: even though he forgave them and told them so, he's got to testify against them in court.

This was really tough to hear. I could have lost my friend, a bunch of my friends could have lost their friend, and yet another friend could have lost her boyfriend. Anything can happen at any time, no matter how safe we feel in any situation. And I have been thanking God a ton for protecting this guy.
It also shows something else. He forgave them for what they did, even though they could have killed him. My friend is about seventeen, eighteen. But he's got an incredible faith in the hardest moments that I can't help but really admire.

So maybe TheOnion is being bipartisan.

Maybe they want to show both sides of the issue in the same absurdly overstated way. Is this how Democrats in the government are viewing the healthcare bill?
