She killed my Brother in a knife fight in Saigon, back in ‘73 and on that day I swore revenge. Now, 43 years later, my opportunity is here and bitchy internet comments are my weapon of choice.

I invented the post-it.

The Emergency Manager definitely had his part go play, but he was also in place by Snyder over the objections of the City of Flint. Snyder has been masterminding this whole deal.

The Emergency Manager superceded the powers of the city Government at the time and was involved in the decision to use water from the Flint River as a cost saving measure.

Shit. I’m sorry. I want to order you some water from Amazon.

It’s a good “dad” move. All his daughters’ lives, he’s been the biggest deal in every room he’s ever been in. I think if I were the first daughter, I would want to have this one day to myself, to be about my graduation rather than my father speaking at my graduation. He’s right to take a pass here, and he did so…

Since the Emergency Manager played a large role in switching the water source, I’d think that the appointment of the EM has a lot to do with the water crisis.

I can tell you, as a mom of 8 children that includes a newborn and two toddlers... It’s a constant panic. Our newborn has to skip regular baths as his body is too small. Our children 6 year old son came home saying how thirsty he was because the school has trash bags over the fountains and he had nothing to drink…

Is that in the “evil governors ignore vulnerable populations” templates section at the MS Word add-ons store?

The GOP’s pennywise dollar-foolish, ignore all environmental standards for poor neighborhood shell game tricks can ALWAYS get worse.

Oh, I’ve seen this before. It’s the standard format for “I poison children in my spare time and then pretend I know nothing about it” emails.

This was my thought too. Sarah Palin has insisted that well trained gun owners should be able to have access to guns. But she can’t deny that her children had good training, and spent their lives hunting (or she would have to say that she was a bad gun owner). He was in the military and got even MORE training. And…

People are insane. My bff is pregnant right now and I told her that more than anything else she needed to prepare for the judgement that is cast upon you regardless of what you do when you have a child. If I could sum up the general approach to parenting: No matter what you’re doing, you’re doing it wrong.

In this country black people have always been treated as if their lives - and livelihoods - don’t matter. Black Lives Matter MEANS All Lives Matter; that’s the point! When someone pulls the “ALM” BS I want to say yes you’re right, it’s about time black lives are added to the list of “all.”

Exactly. “Black Lives Matter” means “Black Lives Matter...as much as everyone else’s lives already do.”

No, actually it’s not. That logic requires that a white person is not hired. Not killing black people does not require you to kill white people. So the logic is different.

Yeah human rights and decency are not a limited quantity, nor is it a zero-sum game; if I treat you with dignity and respect, you have in no way suffered a loss if I turn around and treat another person with the same dignity and respect that I gave you. And BLM isn’t asking for special treatment - they’re asking for…

Here’s why because the person tweeting does not know history. The two parties were very different back then, not what they are present day. But let’s forget about that for a second, MLK Jr. was not a Republican... He was non-partisan. The internet is full of lies.

In “Steve Jobs”, Woz says to Jobs, “It’s not binary. You can be talented AND decent.” Black Lives Matter is not binary. It does not imply that other lives don’t.

I’ll have the chicken.
Why not the pork? Pork is equally tasty! As are beef and mutton. Why are you disrespectful of other meats?

If MLK was alive today, he would be the face of the TEA Party!
