Agreed. He may have originally been searching for Dolores (and later told himself that was still what he was doing) but he learned really quickly that he liked killing.

I’m sure that all of this made sense to our Founders when they designed the electoral college and gave every state the same number of Senators regardless of population but it just doesn’t anymore. And I get what they were aiming at when they wrote article 1 but it has caused the pendulum to swing too far in protecting…

Did you ever imagine you’d find yourself thinking that a Bush presidency wouldn’t be so bad after all?? I know that we Liberals frequently joke that if the GOP candidate wins we’ll have to move to Canada so maybe there is a sense of “The Progressive Who Cried Wolf” but this time the wolf is real...and he’s orange. It…

As unsavory as people may find it, we have a need for professional politicians. One can’t breeze in and master Washington. It’s complicated, as running a country should be. I can see an argument for term limits for the House as it was designed to be the place where regular people could participate in government but…

He would have done better with blue collar voters than Hillary did, almost certainly.

There is a difference between thinking that some members of a group lack nuance and characterizing an entire community as such. I expected some posters to jump on it but wouldn’t say that I expected most or all people to do so. I have found most people here to be fair minded and open to discussion.  Surprisingly, I…

The Tamir Rice case is just heartbreaking and could have been prevented if the cop’s work record. Another police department deemed this guy not fit for duty and said that there was no training that would make him fit for duty. It’s just insane.

I think that in the final vote more people actually decided they were undecided. Not sure how or why. I guess the hold out must have caused some of them to doubt their conviction.

That turned out not to be true. I don’t know if the guy did it on purpose but I do know it’s not as cut and dry as originally characterized.

Right. And the prosecution knew that it would be next to impossible to find a jury who would overlook what a scumbag he is.

He went to his car and tossed in the lighbulbs he just bought. There is disagreement about what he could have seen.

It actually was the case. He frequently went to the restaurant for breakfast without his son, going to work directly from there.

There already is pod cast about it. It’s called Breakdown from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

I thought it might be a gay bashing or suicide story. Like maybe it was someone catfishing him or he would freak out when he found out it was a guy...something like that.

I actually did not get a single negative response so I guess Jezebel (as if it is one monolithic entity) is more nuanced than you give them credit for.

God, I’m going to miss the Obamas. I have seen several current and past speeches that Obama gave, many during times of loss or crisis. I simply cannot face the fact that this fucking carnival barker is going to be the one delivering said speeches for the next 4 years. Maybe he will give that job to Pence as well. Even…

“I will be so much better for women than Hillary...so much better that women will be begging me to grab their pussies! Believe me!”

Right? It’s no wonder the two of them seem to get along so well! Duarte talks about how he, as mayor, should have been given first chance to rape a women, Trump likes to make disgusting remarks and grab women without any sort of permission. It’s a match made in hell.

Yeah...everything and everyone is either the best or the worst. No shades of grey in Trumpland.

Yup. I also heard a story about Trump that pretty much says all you need to know regarding Trump’s lack of intellectual curiosity. He has reportedly been to Slovenia, the birthplace of his wife, just one time. He went to meet her parents. They arrived on his plane and drove directly to an upscale restaurant that was…
