It matters if the police are lying about the child pulling out the bb gun.

Remember this is an open carry state.

There’s no consideration for the child’s privacy here. His well-being is clearly secondary to the object lesson he can provide in the eyes of this department.

It’s worse than that. I think the cops are trying to say “Look at what we deal with every day, aren’t we heroes? Don’t you feel bad for us?” They are using a child’s circumstance to elevate themselves, that is highly cynical.

Wow, Anna Merlan, what a great suggestion! Hey everyone! Anna Merlan just suggested we should listen to what Stassa said! Way to go, Anna Merlan!

As a man, I have a great idea.
If women would like to be heard more in the workplace, when one woman makes a point, the other women in the room should reiterate the idea and credit the initial speaker.

Let me explain to you why your workplace is diverse enough, dear.

Why does it seem like this is not the first time they’ve done this to someone?

Some brands of almond milk have a higher percentage of calcium per cup than dairy milk. It also doesn't expire nearly as quickly, IME.

I think that you should deal with my unpleasant stomach pains and other related consequences when I consume dairy milk, then.

As a person who grew up drinking milk freshly squeezed from a cows teat, I give it up wholeheartedly to almond milk. Milk fresh from a cow smells terrible and really isn’t that pleasant. It’s processed to shit, by the time it hits stores.

I agree with you about the water, which is why I don’t drink it anymore, but I don’t think you’re quite right about the nutrition; almond milk has calcium, magnesium, and vitamins A, D and E, pretty good for something without a lot of calories and no fat. It’s too bad the almonds are so water intensive.

Coconut milk FTW!

Both the Oxford dictionary (“1.2The white juice of certain plants”) and MW dictionary (“a white liquid produced by a plant”) disagree.

oh god. who cares? for all intents and purposes, it’s milk, and serves every function of milk culinarily speaking. don’t get into semantics here.

Good lord - can you focus long enough to understand what I actually said before commenting?

I still can't decide if I should continue to boycott these clowns. I don't necessarily agree that the cinema should have been sued for not having enough security (and I would have supported them had they not tried to bilk money from **the families of shooting victims* but just the idea of what they did left me feeling…

While Ms. Manning’s a troubling figure to have to have as one of the major activists in the trans community, I can tell you as a trans veteran that regardless of legal status developments involving her are quite important, not only for her unique case but for the case of more conventional transgender veterans.…

I hope this ruling will set a precedent for federal/state prisoners. I work in federal court and we have several active cases where transgender inmates are not getting proper medical treatment for their transitions and/or they are being housed in a prisoner for the opposite gender that they identify with.

Did I pee in your cornflakes without realizing it?
