And now all that crap is back thanks to Jeff Sessions. Just when state legislatures were starting to revisit some of that dumb shit.

Don't forget the tough on crime 90's that gave us an expanded drug war, mandatory minimums, etc etc that disproportionately affected minorities and the poor. A lot of that stuff was bipartisan as hell. Go back and listen to some of Bill's tough on crime rhetoric from back then.

Oh, they're laughin' at us alright…but it ain't because of our military budget…

Smell the glove…

"Ruined," in this case, is a matter of taste and a completely subjective term.

They're grown in jars somewhere in a White House sub-basement.

True…rather than humility and simplicity, I think the explanation here is small-mindedness and a lack of curiosity.

I personally agree with you. But the deeper philosophical question is this: is a well-done steak truly ruined if the person consuming it LIKES it that way? Is a well-done steak only ruined if the person it was cooked for doesn't like well-done steak?

Hey man…I respect your opinion and all…but don't be knockin' catsup. Or ketchup, either.

He IS a tiny chef. That's what the research division of Trump International has been working on: miniature humans to place around Trump so it makes him look like a giant. The White House hallyways have been filled with delighted shrieks of "Dude! I'm yuuuuge."

100% correct. Wasted wealth. Squandered opportunities. Screw that guy.

I think the point is to demonstrate a lack of flexibility, a timid nature when it comes to trying new things, and a desire to always get things his way. You know, kind of like a child.

That's what the duke said to the duchess.

It kind of surprises me that Bush 2 didn't hold the record, considering how much he was mocked during his second term.

Wait…I've been pronouncing it wrong all this time?

"Shoot first and ask questions later" seems to be the mantra of MOST local law enforcement agencies these days.

Get in line! Conform or we'll call the "school resource officer to come sort you out with his taser."

So you don't think this is an overreaction? Even if it WASN'T May 4th?

This is the kind of thing Reason reports on all the time. It'd be funny if it wasn't so damn sad. This kind of overreaction happens all the time across the US.

We're talking about a totally outrageous paradigm.
