Nikki is right. Pick your battles or you dilute it and no one pays attention to you. There are a million examples of people calling liberals “libtards” and “overly sensitive” “snowflakes” because of crap like this and completely shutting down to hearing any sort of discussion or persuasion, or even painfully obvious…

FFS, get over yourself.

I think she had little to no hope of winning. Too many people - especially middle America - blindly hated her and just had to have any reason to not vote for her. Hence why the e-mails was such a big and recurring attack on her, when in reality it pales in comparisons to just one of the many of Trumps transgressions…

Well, it has been nice having the discussion with you. I am being honest there and not sarcastic - I really appreciate it and appreciate you not just shutting down and/or raging like so many other do.

Of course they did. If they didn’t it would be even more of a PR nightmare as people rage against them from “denying any wrong doing.” Easily observable as the lesser of two evils. Especially with today’s attention span, just do it an move on.

After reading this I am reminded of the old adage:

Good point. At the end of the day, she still has more money and power than pretty much all of those people in that room will ever have.

Making America (n Airlines) Great Again!

Yeah, it is quite vague a definition and, just like in sports, depends on the situation and the country (or sport in this analogy). Like in Hockey winning by 5 is a sound whipping, but in Basketball that’s a real small margin.

Is it just me, or does 65-35 not feel like a trouncing? In a vote of 100 people, that’s just 15 switching their votes...

While United didn’t do a great job with the PR side of things, you all do realize that is wasn’t United who actually did any of that, right? Security who hurt the man and did terrible things wasn’t United, baggage handlers aren’t all United (many are airport employees)?

This is where things get more complex that I was trying to get at. Going by the standard should be in the best interest of the child, unfairly discriminating against allowing LGBT people to adopt does not seem to affect that.

Good thoughts that lead to some interesting things to think about. A child being involved does complicate things, in many ways much more intricate than just sexual orientation and identity of potential parents. I assume that if the child is old enough (i.e., not an infant) it has some say as to if the go to a…

As much as I hate bigots and people living in the stone age on this issue, I actually don’t know what to think about this decision. Discrimination is awful, but at what point does discrimination of discrimination cross the line? A lot of discrimination is outright terrible and bad and cannot be tolerated. But at…

Well, since you know my aunt so well......

How is this the problem of the defendants? What is the argument for their liability? The article didn’t really explain that, which should be a basic thing the research and dumb down for the article skimming populous.

Headline: “United accuses man of crime literally because of the color of his skin.”

Hey, remember that time that guy tried to masquarade as a woman and claimed to be trans-gender once his flimsy cover story was blown? Ha! what a dope! And to think he even changed his name and everything. Ha! He must be crazy. And a misogynist.

This is not discouraging to me:

~ 4% drop in a day (rounding up) isn’t that bad. It’s rough, sure, but it happens to companies for a lot less than this.
