Political statements should be based on moral statements.

As long as your employer is good with you wearing it at work...

“While I agree with you, the problem is that if they allow BLM masks, you know there will also be assholes doing the Blue, White and All versions. And since those aren’t political either, they’d have to allow them since they are also (im)moral statements.”

“Murder is good.”

“Is it that difficult to just do the right thing by nature?”

The GOP has settled on “tradition” as their moral lodestone. With them, “because we’ve always done it that way” makes it right, no matter who has been, is, and will be hurt by it.

BLM is a moral statement, not a political one.

Don’t make excuses, make progress. It’s the best we can do, but part of that progress has to be calling out other white people when they say or do racist things out of ignorance or out of malice.

I try to live my life so that my actions say “not all white people” because words mean nothing. Mostly I think I succeed, but probably less often than I think.

Ms. Annie Oakley didn’t experience anything like this...this is true ethnic intimidation. Bottom-feeding lawyer needs to STFU.

Dean Greenblatt, a lawyer for the Wuestenbergs, is now calling for the Hill family to be charged for what he described as “ethnic intimidation.”

Whatever penalty the “justice system” might extract from her will be less painful than what she’s already suffered. That raises the question “Would a fine, probation, or a few days in jail serve wider society by making others stop and think before they do something similar?” I don’t know, but if I thought it would,…

Her punishment should depend on what our goal is. Do we want vengeance, do we want to send her a message that will prevent her from doing something similar again, or do we want to send a wider message that might stop many other people from doing something similar?

“...and I will make sure my friends and family never read or visit your site.”

“And, because Tana was parading political ideology all in Maggie’s face....”

I am “mandatory reporter” for suspected cases of child abuse. If I have suspicions and don’t report a parent, a fellow teacher, whoever, I risk six months in jail and I will lose my teaching credential. My wife loses her nursing license if she doesn’t report suspected child abuse, elder abuse, or abuse of those unable…

Any cop should be free required to arrest and charge another cop they witness breaking the law.

Is it worth going to jail for?

Maybe they figure the contrast will make opera sound better.

That’s a dumb reason.
