To be fair, most New Yorkers don’t make New York money

You know, I read stories like this and think of my own Grandfather. Growing up in Brooklyn in the 30's. I can’t help but think what he’d think of the place now.

You just described “Yankees fans” and “Mets fans”, respectively.

I get this view, but do you (or are you willing to) understand that to huge portions of this country the flag and the anthem have wholly different meanings?

I had posted this earlier but it probably fits better here. There is a certain hypocrisy the BLM movement has brought out of White America. You have this contingent which insists black people aren’t doing enough within their communities to police black on black violence, which may be very true. In the same breath,…

Law student here (obviously). I’ve personally watched an 18 year old African American boy be charged with and convicted of sexual assault, and thereby required to register as a sex offender under Megan’s law, all because he was reported by the parents of his 15 year old girlfriend/classmate after they didn’t approve…

Not too tough to figure out: The poor don’t get slaps on the wrist so they can go enjoy their college experiences, so enforcing minimums will not change their status quo.

I don’t know that playing sports makes him an appropriate target for shaming but the whole sexual assault thing seems like it comfortably clears the bar.

The poor are already being sentenced.

Let’s be real, he’s not planning on being at the debates.

ummmmmm the fire marshal thing was like 28 hours ago

Why won’t anyone talk about white-on-white violence?!

If it’s sexist to vote for Hillary because she’s a woman, is it also demonist to vote for Trump because he’s literally Satan’s bunghole?

HE AND MIKEY ARE PERFECT GET MARRIED NOW MIKEY IS A FLAWLESS MAN

I get not wanting to nibble on mediocrity, but I’d much rather nosh on adequacy than choke on greatness, assuming I can also sip on competence.

I don’t think he’s their buddy, guy.

Could you imagine if someone altered the national anthem in support of Black Lives Matter?

Wilmer Flores is a national treasure. The rest of them are just dudes.

I think you are at an empathy advantage and I think that’s another drawback of the “normal kids to the right, ‘special needs’ to the left” philosophy - taking people with different dis/abilities, learning styles and behaviours out of the general population - puts people at a general empathy disadvantage.
