At least according to what I read, the GBI conducted the investigation.

Look, I’m sure we are on the same side as each other, but quibbling over a few words when the DA actually did the right thing and the mother of the victim thanks the DA seems a bit silly.

Well, I’m only in my 30s, but I have to imagine that when a criminal, paranoid, psycho like Nixon could sign the EPA, there was at least more respect for science and scientists.

Slavery and racism are not a “small part of our history.” The Civil War was fought over slavery, and then white supremacists, wanting to revert back as closely as possible to the previous conditions, enacted laws specifically to disenfranchise black Americans. Not that we are close to solving the problem today, but at…

I’d say retire but for the fact that Arizona would probably elect a complete and utter lunatic to replace him.

Well, he can do it and then he will not get any money. It’s not like they have to pay him, but yeah, signing a contract does not mean your can physically coerce someone to do something. You have an odd idea of contracts.

Haha, much better.

Loki and High Key?

I once wandered into Rhode Island and made out with a rock.

“Golden State’s reliance on an unstable isotope is a high-stakes gamble that has finally blown up in their face,” - Albert, it’s not just one analogical point. The entire sentence is a a horror show of a mixed metaphor. It’s going to become another example for students of how and what terrible writing is, but I’m…

I laugh when I read this “If you apply foundation and concealer correctly with the right shades, you are supposed to look like you are not wearing makeup.” I know that it’s true, but it just seems insane. Wearing makeup so as to not be wearing makeup.

I think part of it is the way it has happened, especially the second half of game 2. The Cavs really did look like they quit. Last year, Lebron went crazy. Even in defeat, it was one of the most amazing Finals performances I’ve ever seen. Lebron looked almost resigned at points last night.

The message doesn’t resonate in part precisely because the right has been effective in countering any burgeoning class consciousness with racial sentiment. It’s also not coincidental, at least to me, that the former slave states, as Bouie points out the correlation between the Trump phenomenon and slave holding areas,…

well see, since they are religious, God can forgive them. What they are really worried about is that the unbelievers will be sent to Hell because they don’t get the forgiveness of God. Easily the best thing about American Christianity is that basically everyone is an antinomian.

Hey now, what do ancient Greek writers have to do with this fray?

This is not true. The government of Hungary is particularly nasty; the Poles, the French, and even UKIP in the UK have deeply unpleasant characters. Certainly, there isn’t the relgious element, generally, speaking that there is in the US, but they have some serious right wing nationalists.

Tomorrow, the NFL will issue its ruling on the heliocentric theory and that heretic Galileo.

So be it. She deserves to be in prison just like that man.

I think you’re confusing complexity with basic features of being a human. However, being a human in no guarantee of complexity, and it seems we will continue to disagree on that point.

So, I trust you extend the same symapthies to say, Donald Trump, since, as a human, he is “inherently complex.” If we all share this “complexity,” it doesn’t even need to be mentioned, as one complex person is criticizing another complex person, and as the playing field is all equal, according to your own words, it…
