“Celebrate all you want. You have the day off. But that doesn’t mean you have to participate in the glorification of people who willingly participated in the most evil aspects of an unequivocally evil institution.”

“How many of those no other countries on Earth can directly trace around 10% of their population as descendants of slaves? “

The Bill of Rights.  Done.

There is. Go look up the Duluth Model.  Here’s a handy link - 

There are only so many hours in a day. He did not necessarily have sufficient time to fully deal with every case on his plate. An overfull workload requires prioritizing those cases that seem more urgent over those that seem less so.  He may very well have judged the potential threat in this case as low and acted…

The police have no duty to protect. At all. This has been repeatedly upheld by the courts. (See https://www.nytimes.com/2005/06/28/politics/justices-rule-police-do-not-have-a-constitutional-duty-to-protect.html for example.) If you are an adult no one, literally no one, has any obligation to protect you from anything. …

Hillary lost because she fucked up. She looked at her lead in the national popular vote and assumed she couldn’t lose. So she stopped trying. Because she was content to win a technical victory in the Electoral College with 48% of the popular vote.

“Kamala gave Biden an out! She asked if he still supported his decision 40 years later, how hard is it to say “No, I’ve grown as a person and realize that I made a mistake. That’s why I supported civil rights for the entirety of my career as a congressman, senator and vice president.””

Florida is not a community property state. Florida is an “equitable distribution” state - which means that, as the firearms were at his place, she had already agreed to let him have them as part of their divorce settlement

So, everyone scrupulously refrained from violating her personal space during the scramble to deplane. And no one “nudged her awake” without first obtaining her express permission to touch her which, being apparently comatose, she was incapable of providing. And now that is a problem.

And when those regulations render that property unprofitable, expect the owners to abandon that business in favor of another, converting that property to a more profitable use after ejecting the current residents. When those regulations render a property more expensive to maintain than rents can cover, expect property…

So, here’s an idea:

Well, as a single-not-giving-a-fuck human, you may be interested to learn that while “women spend 2.3 hours a day on house tasks and that men spend 1.4 hours” men, on average, spend over one hour per day longer at work than women. As a consequence, women spend approximately 35 hours/week at work. Men spend over 40…

“Clothing should never be used to justify abuse and assault.”

And yet, had the same thing happened to an author whose social or political opinions Ms. Alford disagreed with made the same mistake, she’d likely be gloating over it. As would most everyone else on this forum.

And it’s rather disconcerting that it took just a few minutes on Google to discover this error. Kinda looks like Wolf didn’t bother even attempting to see if the legal phrase had any particular legal meaning. Especially odd as it’s a rather roundabout way of referring to an execution. It certainly seems as though…

She ain’t the only one - 

Clark going back to the diner to beat up the obnoxious oaf at the end of Superman 2 was vaguely understandable as the guy had beaten him up earlier, but was still a very unSupermanlike thing to do. Calling back to that in MoS with Clark destroying a guy’s livelihood over having a beer poured on his head wasn’t just an…

No, Captain Marvel was a good choice for Infinity War/Endgame. Just not Carol Danvers. Mar Vell was one of Thanos’ early adversaries. (So was Adam Warlock, the original wielder of the Soul Stone who was teased at the end of GotG2.) So have a Mar Vell movie with Danvers as a supporting character (maybe in the Nick Fury…

When a man lies about birth control (like falsely claiming to have had a vasectomy) or sabotages the birth control method being used, it is considered a criminal act and is prosecutable as such. Should the woman thus affected desire to terminate her pregnancy or surrender her parental rights after birth, she is…
