I wonder why we don't have some type of government funded Hybrid truck. We are so quick to make sure every environmentalist get some over priced hybrid for the three times they drive each moth. Then we have trucks going cross country all the time. Considering trucks are one of the main users of our gas and the amount…
Thats amazing.
As far as the mugging example, it actually proves my point. Mugging isn't an exception. The rule is you can't hit people, the exception is you can hit people when its self defense.
Planned parenthood has a great ability to organize. If it doesn't have a bunch of lawyers already, I would bet it could get some to do pro-bono work (or dam close to it, subsidized by them). Hell I would be down with the idea of public defender types being used to help represent the young in legal issues.
The reality is kids don't really have rights (except as we recently discover, the right to play violent video games). So if they don't have the right to take a freakin advil then they don't have the right to do something where there is a medical procedure going on. Kids don't have the right to keep everything from…
I don't doubt there are some kids who would get in some serious hot water by telling their parents they are pregnant. However you don't create laws for the exceptions, you create them for the general public, and then add as few out as possible when needed. If Planned parenthood and child advocacy groups were involved…
The only thing that I really find backwards is allowing minors to get an abortion without parental permission OR a judge's ruling saying the girl would be in danger or can't talk to her parents about it. We require notes to take a freaking advil these days. Pretty much nothing can happen without parental permission,…
The Duke case had virtually no evidence and got an indictment. Plenty of other cases have tons of evidence and aren't prosecuted. Its such a horrible situation, but the school probably would be best to errr on the side of caution instead of making a grandiose statement claiming the kids innocence.
If he played a real position, there is no way he would be this literate. Concussion studies for everyone!!!!
The new DNC president has said some absolutely outrageous things (some of which have been chronicled on fact checker on Washington Post), and if he had stopped there (and not made it about sex, people would still bitch, but he would have a point. The second he left that field and went with the ad hominem attack that…
Oh please lets stop pretending that one political party has a monopoly on refusing to apologize or lying to the public. Did we just completely wipe the last saga out of our memory, or that John Edwards, the former heartthrob of the DNC now has to give back. Both sides are dirty as hell.
I've lost any shred of respect I had for this group. Instead of going after real threats to freedom like Russia (who often kill news reporters like a HS QB goes through girlfriends) or China, they target on organizations that while not perfect often do accomplish a lot of good.
We have enough BS problems from the government without them legislating what kind of lightbulbs we can use. I know the first rule of Gawker publications is that conservatives are automatically in the wrong, but when tech blogs start applying non-partisan issues to this, you look like fools.
I think you have a good point that there are certain professions where the market does not pay people what they are worth, and plenty of other profession (like manufacturing in some cases) where they are overpaid. Social Workers would be the best example, tons of education and training is required (often @ a masters…
True that, I guess jokes about womens sports in general. For at least one day, this story is king. Not because of some political correctness (like shoving the WNBA down our throats) but because they are the best story. Congrats to them
Is there something wrong with saying that do to personalities, what we find enjoyable/ rewarding can be different. This is by no means 100% either way (not even close) but there is nothing wrong with saying that men may enjoy computers more than doing social work.
All jokes about women's soccer aside, sports is sports. These gals kicked ass and overcame adversity. Fifa is dirtier than an Tour de France drug test, and they still won. Congrats to them, the day in sports belongs to the #USWNT.
The wage gap thing, from the studies I have read are a little misleading. It said that people in the same field with similar experience were making close to the same regardless of their sex. however women often chose fields with lower pay then men, such social and non profit work and that this lead to an overall lower…
Sometimes the best action from other media is to hold off printing anything (which is probably what the NYP could use a dose of, but its tabloids). Who knows what happened in this case? But remember, being a jerk is not a crime. Just like the Duke Lacrosse case, its sometimes best to wait until all the facts are out…
