You’re right. 5 mill apiece is better.

Let’s say the 20 kids get off scot-free and go back to the school where the incident occurred.

The kid who gets beat up has to go to a different school.

Now mom and dad have to relocate/drive/pay for private school if its not a public school.

Why shouldn’t they be compensated for the major inconvenience cause by willful

You think taking time off work to spend with a sick or injured kid is free? Where do you think this is? Sweden?

I agree - each parent should also get $6 million

Dude, you’re deciding the stand you want to take is, “cheerleaders dress like cheerleaders, so saying they shouldn’t complain about being expected to act as escorts isn’t a hot take.”

Really pause and think about that.

Also: how is this guy out of the greys and I’m not?!?

If a commenter is murdered in the grays without a witness, does he not die?

Here’s an amazing quote from that article:

What’s funny about “The War of Northern Aggression”, ignoring that South Carolina started the war at Ft. Sumter, is that the United States had spent the last 30 years killing Indians for their land and conquering a large chunk of Mexico. And the leaders were overwhelmingly a bunch of dickheads from the South, starting

Not to mention naming U.S. MILITARY BASES after guys that were responsible for the deaths of thousands of U.S. soldiers! Fort AP Hill, Fort Benning, Fort Bragg, Camp Beauregard - 10 in total (10!!). I live in AP Hill’s hometown, literally next door to the house he built after the war. I wouldn’t name my cats’ litter

I already read Yoder’s shitty Silent Sam column. The sheer number and scale of the false equivalencies Yoder reels off in the piece is dizzying. It’s the final remnants of an Old South progressive mentality that for decades has used its gentility to mask its intentions, one that plainly gives away its limitations on

As a Navy officer who lives in North Carolina:

Also it would help if the OP actually read the article and understood why the statues were put up (and there’s a whole series of roads named Jefferson Davis Highway).

If you’re a notable historic figure because you fought to preserve slavery....you don’t deserve to be honored.

If we’re going to be totally honest, “historical context” should be the rise of white supremacy following the end of Reconstruction and up to the Civil Rights Movement.

Or y’know we could offer health care to everyone and prenatal care and post-birth paid time off and free or low-cost child care to ... nah, you’re right, let’s just make sure women get a pelvic exam from their dentist.

Ugh. I was listening to some of the game on Sirius. It was obviously a Boston broadcast. The broadcasters were doing some bullshit ask-a-question-know-the-answer nonsense regarding Al Horford.

I don’t know. The team pop had this year was pretty fucking trash

“Look, we’ve got a young woman who’s suffered a lot. We understand that. That’s traumatizing. And I think she’s still trying to work through all of that. And just how she remembered this meeting was very different than those of us who were there.”

There’s some truth in there in terms of execution (and the idea that they think reason is baked into the populace when the vast majority of people are, frankly, stupid or won’t be bothered to think).
