Democrats are exactly like Republicans the same way that someone who bumps into you, bruises you slightly, and steals your wallet in the confusion is the same as someone who stalks and terrorizes you for a full month, brutally rapes and tortures your family to death in front of you, then maims and cripples you for…

I don’t even know if I can follow what’s going on anymore. I guess that’s the point - keeping the downtrodden from even knowing who to aim at, let alone actually shoot.

Okay, that was a fascinating read / Google. Our entire government seems to get more corrupt by the year. You pass one intolerant, bigotry-enabling law that the SC strikes down as unconstitutional, and so what do you do? You get your party flaks in the lower houses at the state level to pass a couple dozen just like…

I could do up to half a dozen, maybe, if unusually hungry.  But I’m going to feel sick and lethargic for the rest of the day, and that’s no fun, so 4 is usually my limit, and then only if I intend to eat only 1 other meal that day.

I mean, if you’re going to violate the Constitution by dragging any religion into government, the least you could do is not do the exact opposite of what scripture and dogma and teachings and literally everything about that religion (“love thy neighbor as thy self”) says you should do?

That’s what “uppity” always meant. After all, the n-word itself essentially means “person so downtrodden with a slave mentality that they can no longer take care of themselves without a ‘Master’” “Uppity” is the opposite - something that was never wanted in a slave Independent thought and the will to express it when…

BS is still BS.  Unless they hear obvious screams of pain and death, explosions or gunfire, mere shouting does not entitle emergency response suspension of the requirement for a warrant to enter a private residence.  In other words, I don’t care if they hear “IMMA KILL YO ASS!”, they still have to knock and ask…

My town just puts up those “no parking this side 7am - Noon for Street Sweeping” signs... at 10:00 am, the Parking Enforcement officer following directly ten feet behind the Streets Dept. worker putting up the signs. I wish I was kidding or exaggerating.

Stealth missile launching robots make at least a little sense, I guess. Nasty surprise for anyone who wants to go poking their nose where they’re not wanted. But not something that will hold the South China Sea if someone tries to take it away, either.

Can you say “sponsored article”?  Apparently nobody can, ‘cause they’re never labeled as such, even when they’re so blatantly obvious...

HAH, no. Sorry, that’s wrong. It’ll vary from person to person - my state has a very high gas tax, for example, but if you don’t commute much or at all, that doesn’t affect you as much.

Breakin’ the law AND a Commandment at the same time.  All he has to do is be guilty of exactly what he’s accusing this fellow of, for the Hypocrisy angle and he’ll have the GOP Trifecta, easy.

Whady’a know? Poor people hang on to their beaters longer or take the bus, the train ,or hoof it.

Quoth the Internet:  “Duh.”

Don’t forget how most of that effort actively undermines real efforts to end actual sex-trafficking, and does nothing about the real thing in and of itself.

Unfortunately it’s easy enough to become a Notary that this wouldn’t slow a lot of abusers down too much.

That would be raises to Middle Management, the literal gate of the gated community that is the 1% in America.  And maybe a few scraps to everyone else just so they aren’t obviously rewarding the people riding herd on their serfs and nobody else.

IKR? I had a picture of Kansas as being one of those states where it was functionally impossible to get an abortion because you needed things like a doctor certified to perform surgery in every hospital in the country while standing on one foot and whistling Dixie, permission from your parents 12 months in advance…

No, but any individual store may the instant someone mutters the word “union”within 100 feet of the place, just like Wal-Mart does whenever someone gets the idea.

I must have been told the wrong thing. There’s no Google-able evidence to support any relationship between Dill and Ragweed. They’re the same Clade as far as scientific classification goes, but other than that, no.
