“I notice you completely ignore the really important question here, which is, why was Sterling Brown sitting in the parking lot, disrespecting the flag and the troops in the first place?” -Roger Goodell

Kids get free Jesus Juice on Michael Jackson Avenue...hee hee.

I’m black , and while I think these liberals are just as racist as your average white republican , their concerns aren’t necessarily racist. HAve you seen those black schools on the other side? Theyre literally crime infested shitholes. These black kids aren’t scoring low on in basic English because the schools…

That’s also not how their school system works. Schools get to set admission requirements, so the 25% that used to be virtually assured of getting into the best schools will now bump down the students who used to get into the very good schools, and so on.

Or a terrible one. The 25% of kids that were removed now go to the terrible school that the other kids were removed from.

I never understand why folks get upset about public schools bringing in a more diverse student body.

When I hear of Scandinavian prisons, I think of a moderately comfortable economy class hotel.

I assume that “Icelandic prison” is smallish studio apartment, furnished by Ikea.

Less than you think. The main weapon used against Syria last weekend was the JASSM and JASSM-ER. The JASSM costs about $850k each, the ER variant $1.36M. Let’s just call it an average $1M per missile.

Endemic corruption is the main culprit. Believe it or not, this isn’t Trump’s fault (this time at least). It is two generations of Puerto Rican politicians using PREPA as a personal piggy bank..

Puerto Ricans (excluding government workers) do not pay a federal income tax. While they are a U.S. commonwealth and there are some benefits to that, they are not an equal state and they are not intended to be a United States charity case. When you talk to Puerto Ricans, they do not want to pay federal income tax.…

I know this is not going to be a popular opinion but perhaps it isn’t the best idea in the world for people to inhabit an island in the middle of a busy hurricane path then expect to have all of the infrastructure and amenities of places that aren’t subject to the extreme forces of nature.

Because independent Caribbean nations struggle to exist without some other government propping them up? 

Well my first guess is they’d want help updating their infrastructure.

Actually the citizens have to vote to become a state. That has failed every year it has been brought up. If that ever happens, it will take a long time to fix the broken infrastructure

As much as I loved Obama and hate Trump, Obama sure didn’t fix Flint either.

Who thinks that if Obama was president during Puerto Rico’s recovery from Maria that the resulting fixes would NOT have produced this news (additional blackout)?

“We made these problems for ourselves, now bail us out otherwise you’re ‘racist’!”

You know, you put this in here as big news, but when Long Island loses power for 18-36 hours, with a population five times as large, crickets...
