Fake Nuns Smuggle Cocaine

Three women who were pretending to be nuns were arrested in Colombia. They were suspected of having cocaine in their habits. They attempted to sneak through security at Gustavo Rojas Pinilla International Airport in San Andres. All three women were carrying two kilos of cocaine. The women are facing charges of trafficking, manufacturing, and the bearing of narcotics, according to police. Police said, the drugs would be distributed in more than 60 thousand doses. Say no to drugs, say yes to tacos. Vote for Pedro.

Jason Collins Comes Out

Jason Collins, the 12 year pro basketball player, is the first active, major league athlete to announces he's gay. Over the last few months, there has been much speculation over what league would have the first gay athlete. That stemmed from sketchy questions being asked to college football players during the NFL combine. From the moment Collins announced he was gay, he received nothing, but support from other NBA players and major icons in the media, including Kobe Bryant, Jason Kidd, and Ellen Degeneres. Jason Collins' twin brother, Jarron, has tweeted about the support his brother and his family were receiving, which is a very good step in the right direction for equal rights for everyone.
