It doesn’t matter. She is in prison and has a medical need. The prison has the responsibility to provide for the medical needs of the people it places in prison. You can’t go looking at each medical case and decide if their crimes warrant them medical attention or not. Everyone deserves medical attention while they’re…

Yes, exactly, people surrender all their human rights when they commit crimes. Human rights are available only to those who earn them, because that’s how human rights work. Not that medical care (including, God forbid, mental healthcare) is a human right or anything.

I take your point, but no one is going to prison for free healthcare. And, if they were, that's a problem with healthcare delivery generally it just in prison.

Why would she face additional charges for a suicide attempt?

Okay. And? She wasn’t really free to transition, anyway, as at the time transgender people were not permitted to serve in the military.

A society where the old are plenty is a very problematic society. It should be easy for anyone to see that the healthcare system will be strained, lots of resources will be used to care for the old. there will be fewer people doing the caring. The young also tend to drive economic growth because the consume but…

I imagine it's something like this

I know lots of short-term focused, aggressive women and a lot of thoughtful, nuanced men. Maybe assigning a gender to a trait is what the poster thinks is silly about Grenier’s comment.

Ask him the environmental impact of burning man! Also, Pioneer means he was the first gentrifier to move black and Hispanic folks out of their own neighborhood. What a moron!

Reading over Stein’s career, it reads as a person who couldn’t get elected as a Democrat, got frustrated by the loses, and then went to the Green party. If she was truly wanting change, she would have stayed and changed Mass. democratic party from within. She always come off as such a... child? I can’t think of the…

Do you live in FL, OH, or PA?

Also, we don’t live in a democracy.

If you want third parties to have a realistic effect on the politics and policies of the United States, encourage to run for any other fucking position than President. Then they might actually have a chance at winning, AND they’ll build name recognition and public trust.

Until then, remember that the Republicans are…

Because the military and intelligence agencies will suddenly cease to exist if you vote third party?

Mathematically, you’re voting for Trump.

You should vote how you want.

You don’t get to just pretend that your moral high ground doesn’t have real world consequences, jerk

It’s fine that you don’t want to vote for a candidate that you don’t think represents your ideals, but it is also fine that Bee lives in the real world and recognizes that: (1) there are only two candidates with a chance to win this presidential election and (2) if you refuse to vote for the one that most closely…
