With a name like Suckabee, it has to be lies.

“Grabbed her hand? The good American people know that I would never try to grab a woman by the hand.”

That Sterling shot was a perfectly dramatic way to end the game. And as a Chelsea hater, I loved every second of it.

Demographic proportion has nothing to do with the state’s history. SPLC’s methodology is a bit dubious, and includes a wide range of hate groups, but Mississippi ranks as 3rd most hate groups per capita.

I showed my work for my claim. So you show yours.

No, this article (https://deadspin.com/espn-eats-its-own-tail-over-the-faint-idea-of-lebron-ja-1831210976) where Giri specifically calls out ESPN for overflowing Lebron’s comment about wanting to play with AD.

I see how that interpretation is valid, but I had the same question. With full respect for Salty’s thoughtful right answer and consideration of the relationship dynamic being completely different, I don’t feel comfortable being addressed by “pet” names—not even in a romantic relationship. I’d be fine if a…

Now THAT’S a solid take/joke.

No one answer solves every problem, or every aspect of a problem, and especially not all at once. But legalization at least offers more chances for victimized women to have better recourse for seeking help.

Hyperbole font. That’s awesome; simply a case of my not being up on the news. 

Those are valid considerations, but you’re never going to end every crime as a result of the law, and that applies to legalizing sex work versus the considerations about trafficking. There are a wider range of benefits that can result from legalizing than, say, the perpetuation of a system that already exists around…

For sure; having family wealth gives you a boost, not to mention exposure to and, most importantly, time to indulge in a variety of pursuits not available to most. I worked hard in high school, and played sports, and joined clubs, and also had to work a job to help my family out. Whereas a more privileged person might…

Oh for sure. Same goes for the war on drugs, and for that matter, any progress in reforming civil forfeiture laws.

This was a bad look, but I have often missed a pertinent and obvious detail in making a comment. Happens to all of us.

How big are we talking, though?

Yeah, in this specific case, that seems to be what happened. But I made that caveat because I’m sure there are some legitimate* operations where the women go voluntarily* into that line of work.

The excerpt seemingly implies that Arnheim is only attributing his personal success to the system that disenfranchises minorities, which is certainly true to an extent, but without attributing anything to personal effort. And I think that latter part is why many people, especially poor white people, don’t get the…

Wasn’t in the mood to be mean on the internet today (and I Brain You below is a commenter I like, so I didn’t want to snark too harshly beyond just point out the error of the inwuiry), but others have taken up the charge. Who’da thunk it?

That being said, how do we know, for 100% fact, that this place is engaging in trafficking?

That’s actually a common story among many of these operations. But yeah, what the fuck kind of “counterpoint” was that commenter even saying?
