How d'you figure that?

Well, then I'm glad the horrible mother was dumb enough to continue the assault in front of the authorities so that she was publicly and legally held accountable for being such a shit to her son. Of course I'm sorry that she was such a shit in the first place.

It's kind of frustrating that there is a blatant straw man argument here that everyone is just embracing the hell out of.

They're not forcing their religious beliefs on people. People who work for hobby lobby could always take birth control and have abortions and whatever. They're arguing about who pays for it. And…

In other words: "I will try to make sure everyone follows the party line and that we all support this traitorous dog".

I wouldn't consider someone who leaked hundreds of thousands of classified documents a hero. She didn't know all of the information that was contained in them before the release and she could have put real people in serious danger.

Bring out the torches....

There is a massive amount of public interest in prosecuting these offences. If the crime or offender is serious enough and a key witness (victim…

If people don't show up in court, how can they convict the perp?

it sucks that they did this but what's worse: locking up rape victims to make sure they cooperate, and putting their rapists in jail, or allowing victims not to show up and another rapist walks free?

As a researcher/scientist, these articles are insanely frustrating to read. "Things that I can't pronounce, or be bothered to learn about via scientific research, are scary and related to SCARY THINGS and buzzwords and every disease known to medical science. AND I WON'T ELABORATE ON IT. I just want to publish…

"Yet, aspartame, saccharin and acesulfame potassium, three leading artificial sweeteners, have all been linked to cancer."

"There's nothing inherently wrong with Bennet's ambition."
