I honestly don’t understand people like that. My husband, fortunately, has a great job and gets paid very well for it. This means we are in a high tax bracket, and it totally sucks. But you know what doesn’t suck? Schools and roads and libraries and fire departments and parks and...

She didn’t exactly start from the bottom, but yeah, she didn’t inherit $40 million from her father either.

THIS IS WHAT I DON’T UNDERSTAND?!?!

What is Clinton so overly secretive about? I honestly don’t get that line of thought when 1) she is investigated over every little thing to the point we practically know what color underwear she’s wearing, and 2) Trump will release nothing about himself, tax returns being top of mind.

YOUR CHILDREN ARE BLACK, YOU BEAUTIFUL MORON! How are you going to vote for someone endorsed by the literal KKK?

You do realize the fda has saved countless lives by ensuring safe product? You realize regulations are typically for safety which trumps revenues for most customers.

Riding in front is not uncommon. And it certainly doesn’t mean you consent to genital grabbing. So your point is moot.

There should be things in place to prevent this by companies offering rider services. Like an interview, background check, and perhaps the industry needs regulations. Maybe something like these...

That’s what I don’t get. Let’s assume for one moment he did have a gun (I don’t believe he did, but I wasn’t there). The man is in his car and not an immediate danger, you have someone who obviously knows him on scene, why would you not have one officer go over and speak with her to see if she knows a way to get him

The immutable characteristic thing is really problematic, because so much of the racial discrimination present today isn’t based *directly* on skin color, but rather on stereotypes associated with racial groups. There is some precedent that recognizes this (too lazy to pull out citations right now), but the fact that

I’d love to hear someone tell a white woman that she always has the option to shave her head to get a job. Sounds totally reasonable, right?

She’s just been charged... like all those charged in the Freddie Gray killing. Time will tell if she actually serves any time.

BuzzFeed reports authorities are currently working with Wood “to bring her into custody.”

Yes. How “strange” that a black man, when confronted by a cop, would put his hands in the air. It couldn’t possibly be that he wanted to preemptively signal that he was unarmed, given that so many other black person-cop interactions turn deadly without provocation.

Yep this has been going on for a long time. People love to vilify the Black Panthers, but much of the reason the organized was to protect african-americans from abuse from law enforcement.

There’s a deeper root to the problem and it started with the advent of SWAT style teams back in the early 80's.

When we started militarizing the police; in equipment, tactics, training, and attitude.....they adopted a military mindset.

No longer were the police the protectors and members of society....

They became

“If you’re black and you haven’t been successful in the last 50 years, it’s your own fault. You’ve had every opportunity, it was given to you,” she said.

I have yet to receive a satisfactory answer on what the theoretical endgame is of her alleged becoming-president-while-dying conspiracy.
