157 Brighton Avenue, Brighton

On Sunday, November 8, 2009, at approximately 12:16am, a Boston Police Officer, assigned out of Area D-14 (Brighton), was patrolling in the area of Brighton Avenue at Harvard Avenue when his attention was drawn to several people in the area. The officer spoke with a couple of the individuals and learned that there was a man down on the ground in front of the convenience store located at 157 Brighton Avenue.

The officer made his way to the unconscious victim and observed him to be suffering from an apparent stab wound. The officer immediately called for assistance and began C.P.R. Boston EMS arrived and transported the victim to Beth Israel Hospital where he was pronounced.

Title
Deleting comments in communities

Short, concise description of the idea
Have the ability to keep members from deleting comments of others in communities.

Full description of the idea
As a moderator of a fairly active political discussion community, at times I've had to threaten bans and the like for people deleting the comments of others. Can we (or do we) have a setting that makes it impossible for non-admin members to delete someone else's comments?

• Will keep people from censoring others, leave that to the mods. ;)

• If someone trolls a thread then the community would have to wait until an admin addresses the offending comment.

The yelling isn't just disproportionate to the behavior, it has nothing to do with the behavior. She's angry about other things, but she's yelling about the milk.

The kid has learned nothing about good and bad behavior. In fact, they've learned that "bad behaviors" merit only calm discussion, while things that annoy Mom or Dad are met with wrath.

Watch your kid: are they more terrified of your reaction when they are caught in a lie, or when they accidentally knock over a glass?

The natural thing to do would be to yell about bad behavior ("did you push that boy on the playground?!?!") and be calmly annoyed when they spill milk. But.

But that doesn't happen, because the parent isn't being honest.
