So because you choose to have a ginormous vehicle, bikers should be penalized? If you can't drive it, don't buy it or at least don't whine about it. (And I actually have a larger ride - Used Natural Gas Crown Vic (Police edition, so includes a push bumper.)

Who says he's unattractive? I like that grunge look. Especially if its not just put on my a trust-fund asshole.

Children are not property, and parents don't own them. Parents can't consent for their child to have a finger amputated needlessly. Moreover, they should not be allowed to consent for their children to have a medically unnecessary and dangerous genital surgery that can result in UTIs, Sepsis, Chronic Pain, and rarely…

Wash. Your. Hands.

takeshi, online retailers don't cause these things, but the *benefit from* them. That's the whole idea. If an online retailer wants to have their shipping and receiving by magic fairy dust, more power to them. If they want to use the roads and highways of this country, they damn well better help pay for them. Ditto…

True, but I would much rather it be progressive tax. Sales tax hurts the poor more than any other tax. That said, this law would in fact help the poor since escaping sales tax online is a middle-upper class gig. This at least makes and unfair tax a little fairer.

Better yet, take a first aid/CPR course. Failing that just use some sense, if shit looks bad call 911, and invest 140 seconds of your time to watch this video. It's not rocket science: fast and ASAP. [youtu.be]

And in the time it took you to dick around with this ap, you could have called 911.

I almost just choked to death on my cereal.

Er, no. I'm an ER physician and I work with many hospitalists and other ER physicians. To a man (and woman) none of us wants people who are terminally ill hanging around to soak up money and time. The first question most hospitalists ask me when I need to admit such a patient is whether or not they have an advanced…

What you said!

Gee, because for certain people (and young African American men in the US) the cops are more dangerous than anyone else on the street.

"but that I have to admit the judge is correct in his interpretation of the law."

So what is the status of the marriages of women with complete androgen insensitivity? They look, act, and feel female. They are assigned female at birth (and on their birth certificate). However they have XY chromosomes. Are they legally married to their husbands? In TX (whose standard is chromosomes by prior case…

There is actually no such thing as 'legally male (or female)'. There are a lot of gender markers that indicate maleness or femaleness, but there is actually no legal definition. Even the gender markers are not always accurate. There are a few people who have had their gender marker written incorrectly on their birth…

On behalf of my gender, I apologize.

Yes, Now. Yes in that neighborhood. My husband is mixed race and we get that all the time. Whether we were in the south (NC, LA), or in Hoboken, Princeton, Manhattan or Brooklyn or now in CA... as a couple being gay has always been less of an issue than being mixed race. When we want a cab, I have to flag it with him…

Because you know, all black people look alike.

Um, I did my ER residency in NYC. I've done exactly that too numerous times to count and wow... still blood borne pathogen free. And way to go to perpetuate the myths about HIV+ people.

I don't think that sweeping generalizations are a good idea. Though I have heard similar things to what Julian Forth relates. However I have heard the mirror image of those remarks from lesbian women as well in regard to men. The names might be different, but the need to bolster one's identity, piss in the face of…
