You’re not familiar with the law, this is not common sense. It’s law. That’s why you hear of so many class actions, this is the same argument of the famous “valet tickets rule” where the valet spells out that they’re not responsible for anything that happens to your car while on their care. That is against the law and…

No, if you accuse your neighbor of stealing your mail you don’t have the right to open his door and look around for clues.

You equate Jewishness which represents a tiny portion of the population with half the population being denied the office of the presidency for 230 plus years? There will always been something unique about the white male to deny the presidency to anyone else. Just ask the Mormon who ran in 2012. Stupid Obama standing…

I must have missed that potential Jewish nominee getting a majority of votes or delegates.

well, for one thing, the question was about when another gets the delegates to win - if you hang in there, is it sexist?

Pfft, amateurs:

What is a GUN? Did you mean gum? GUM IS DELICIOUS. NRA? DID YOU MEAN NBA!? SPORTS BALL FOREVER!

I do not know but I suspect that if she’s thought about those women at all, she’s thought that they weren’t proper Christian women and were “asking for it” in some way, or that they made it up, or that the sex was consensual and then they changed their minds later....or something like that. All the things that people…

Is it really that surprising in this case that no one is able to come to that realization, though? Think about all the layers of blinkered thinking involved here: Christian school. Texas. College football. Rape Culture. And there are all sub-levels within those levels that would further stunt your ability to actually…

Minimize? Fuck, she basically erased them. Not a single mention of the victims. But she’s crying herself to sleep over their 12 win seasons coming to an end. Fuck her.

Cognitive dissonance is a heck of a thing, as is the lengths our brains will go to in order to maintain it. Unless a person has seen it first-hand in family and friends or recognized it in their own life and been forced to confront and deal with it, it can be very hard to comprehend how powerful it is. None of this is…

The problem with college athletics in a situation like this, is there really are two, maybe three distinct groups of fans, and their reactions are vastly different.

You can’t underestimate how many social conservatives in the Hill Country are brought up to support Baylor.

I get that to a certain extent but still.....maybe these people should at least acknowledge in passing that, at the very least, Art Briles may have made a few egregious mistakes? Why is it “Art Briles is a perfect moral being!” and not “Art Briles may have screwed up but he’s still a decent person overall"?

I get sticking by her dad, that’s the business of family, but minimizing all those women who were violated, it’s the exact fucking reason her dad got ran out of town and why Baylor just got fucked in national media. All those victims — the ones the university itself admitted mistreating — would beg to differ about it…

Yep. I can understand where Staley is coming from since it involves her dad and her husband, but I could not maintain that relationship. Yet- a lot of people from our hometown feel differently than I do

This comment, and many others like it, is a perfect example of the point I’m making. “No,” says the wised-up internet user, “they’re not asking him to take a pay cut; they just want to pay him about half what he’s owed this year. He can earn the rest by playing another year, and working twice as long for the same…

I appreciate the point you’re trying to make but I guarantee you the only people that will care about this are these morons and their ilk. I don’t think even the GOP clown car will go after this. They’ve got bigger fish to fry right now, ie Trump sucking all the oxygen out of the campaign.

Preach. - A father of three adopted children

I hate all these celebrity paternity stories (this one, the constant rumors about Khloe Kardashian, etc.). Regardless of the DNA test, Bill Clinton is her father. That’s how parenthood works. Biological origins are useful for medical histories, and that’s about it; they are certainly of no use to the public. All of…
