And they are a shrinking vocal minority. Look, they generally come from 2 demographics.

Try “On my stars and garters”

That story about the traumitzed child SHOULD shock you. It’s an example of a politician straight out lying to try and support a dubious position.

But that’s ash-train’s point. Dumping them in the lake is hard ... not to mention wet ... work. (But not “wet work”).

Once again, taxpayers on the hook for malfeasance, and the actual bad actors are punished with “please pinky promise you’ll never do that again”

So, he beat himself up?  That’s the defence they are going with?

Corporate Math involving tax writeoffs, sure.

Lol. Nice try troll. Neither of the statements you made - even IF they were true - have anything to do with what I said. Like, do you even lift* bro?

when your best defence is “hey, don’t exaggerate, only a hundred of our employees ACTUALLY committed sexual assault”, you might want to rethink how you run things...

GOP: Local government! Stop telling us how to run our fiefdoms.

Hmm. Your post prompted something I hadn’t considered before. The fact that the guys who get into craft brewing to make and sell beer aren’t representative of your average beer consumer.

Different set of laws, so not is what’s being addressed here.

He’s in a spot of trouble. If he had used the chair once, he might have been able to make a “self-defence” argument stick, but the repeated use, including the lady already on the ground ... that’s over the line.

“legally business are people” ... that is step 1 in putting an end to this ridiculous charade. Citizen’s United ranks right up there with Dred Scott among the all-time worst decisions ever handed down from the Supremes.

So, six cops get to this house early in the morning and then decide “well, we’re already here. Don’t want to waste the trip, might as well arrest her anyway?”.

I’ve heard this one before. I don’t know enough about brewing to know how much of a factor it is, but if true, it does stand to reason that - given the explosion of craft breweries has to have led to an explosion of people responsible for producing tasty beer - some of these new people just aren’t that good at their…

I don’t disagree that there is a niche market for - as you put it - “hoppier and hoppier” beers. But I think it’s a smaller market - just by definition - than the potential market for “less hoppy beers”. It stands to reason that if you could line graph “people’s preference in beer” with “IBU count” that as IBU count…

JFC. It’s time to put this to bed once and for all. There is no such thing as a “religious employer”. And YOUR personal beliefs do not give you permission to trample the rights of other people in any way, shape or form.

Your last statement isn’t 100% true. A lot of good “old fashioned” IPAs are no longer being made since craft breweries have limited manufacturing capacity, and they’ve changed their lines in the pursuit of greater IBU numbers.

In addition to his opinion being hateful, he’s also got his facts deliriously wrong. “I come from an era where a man was a man and a woman was a woman”?
