Well, gosh, it's not like he stole $10 worth of cigars or tried to sell untaxed loose cigarettes.

We should instead focus on the good police officers, the ones standing up and speaking out when their fellow officers straight up murder people on video.

On one hand, yeah, this is historic. On the other, now she'll be the first Latina to detain and deport hundreds of thousands of people. So, progress?

Sandusky got convicted and sentenced, and his wife is still telling everyone he got railroaded. So, forever?

If you notice, he's very careful not to say anything. His lawyers or reps (or wife or child) speak for him. The reason is the logic that led to the defamation suit filed recently.

If one of your only trading chips was nuclear weapons, and you were little loved, and people constantly tried to defect from your country, would you put one of those few trading chips in an underwater vessel designed to travel very long distances undetected?

If Cosby's words are "no comment," I don't see how this is the media's fault. The media has a responsibility to reach out to the other party involved, in the case of such an allegation. Cosby has made every effort to remain pointedly silent. If he has some exculpatory information, he's had an opportunity to offer it.

Thanks to the posters who corrected me on this point; I had thought (wrongly) there was a specific rule in place. Both prohibitions are de facto.

It raises some interesting questions. I think MLB would probably say they can use someone's history as a manager and player as a qualification for executive roles (and they do, all the time, with Joe Torre and Tony La Russa getting major executive roles as well) and that work history is a relevant and…

I believe that rape is seriously underreported and a very serious problem. However, I have a lot of problems with the construction of those studies. It may be that studies reveal that 2-8% of rape allegations are later shown to be false. It does not at all follow that 92-98% are true. That means that 92-98% of rape…

Except that the judge looked at the case and couldn't identify any interest other than her unbelief of the doctors and let her go. I think people make mistakes all the time, and clinicians commit people because they have mental health problems and don't want them on the street, rather than because they are actively…

While the nature of Ruby's delusion is a little bit interesting, there are lots of people wandering around with widely varied and untreated delusions in America.

You need a new life skills presenter.

Right? While generally placid, being charged by an angry moose is no joke. It should appear somewhere on the list.

Cape Buffalo are widely thought to be one of the most dangerous animals to hunt.

I love their interactions. Colin Jost looks legit terrified of her, which I don't think is acting.

That's a pretty high standard to hold a law to. No, restraining orders don't make you bulletproof. Neither do murder laws. Neither does walking around wearing body armor and carrying an Uzi. "This law does not perfectly solve all human problems," is a critique one could level at every law.

It was incredibly foreseeable. Rapes are among the most controversial topics in America. Did RS really think they'd publish this story and everybody at UVA would just agree that the source was raped exactly where and how and when she alleged? If so, that's incredibly naive.

I think RS may have rushed to publish the story without adequate fact-checking but they're also running away from the story without adequate reason to believe it's made up.

Dave Chappelle's white guy voice is pretty close, but I think you have to concede Pryor's is better.
