I think the policy has to do with administrators being afraid of what they don’t know. I imagine this is their thinking: “What if a kid has something shaved into his hair—a word or symbol that we’re unfamiliar with—and it turns out that it’s a gang thing? Is this something that could lead to kids from a rival gang…

“The trickle-down effect appears to be that some white people (notice I didn’t say, “all white people,”)...”
“What work experience...they’re voting for and still supporting this limp dick has nothing to do with work experience...BITCH HAS NEVER HAD A REAL FUCKING JOB!!!”
He was a federal informant, not an informant for the Philly police. It’s very likely the officers were not aware that he was a federal informant when they attempted to arrest him. Law enforcement agencies are notorious for being bad at sharing info with each other. Also, it’s likely that the feds had no prior reason…
“Let’s keep a look out for him, on every street, in every town, city, state, wherever he goes.”
It wasn’t murder. That word has a specific legal definition, and it does not describe this incident.
“the court decision clearly shows he is a murderer.”
I’m sure that a lot of the money is coming from a place of hate, but I also think it’s coming from (1) people who feel that he’s being thrown under the bus for political reasons, and (2) people who feel that the hysteria around this and other recent events has resulted in him being punished too severely in the court…
It doesn’t have to be a “politically-charged act of domestic terrorism” to be considered a mass shooting. You’re getting your definitions mixed up. Politically-motivated violence is part of the definition of “terrorism,” not “mass shooting.”
If you’re going to say that, first you should be able to explain who’s responsible for the other 80% of homicides in which a black person is the victim.
“We disagree,” Allred told NBC. “We believe that if Walmart is concerned about security, it should lock up the shelves of all products.”
“the company continues to face racial discrimination allegations as a result of some locations’ practice of keeping black beauty products—and only black beauty products—in locked glass cases.”
“... John Crawford III, a 22-year-old black father shot on sight for daring to pick up and examine one of the store’s openly displayed BB guns.”
To be fair, it wasn’t just that he wasn’t a career politician. Like him or not, he’s a very successful businessman. As much as we try to explain away his wealth and convince ourselves that his lavish lifestyle is all a con game, the truth is that the guy is loaded. We might not like the way he does business—we might…
“To be fair, the people that said Obama was not qualified to be President were not talking about his qualifications.”
“I volunteer in a shelter. Every dog we get in that is ‘skittish’ around men came from an abuse situation, even if it was ‘just’ abuse towards the dog.”
No, you go fuck yourself, blueberry.
My dog isn’t racist. She’s a bit of a religious bigot, though—especially towards Catholics. Don’t even get her started on the doctrine of transubstantiation.
To be clear, I didn’t say that they needed to work all of that overtime just to make enough money to live.
