Did you read the part where they weren’t saying the original bumping was racist but rather how the staff handled everything afterwards? You need to read as much as you write.

You’re making excuses for those who acted badly. You are assigning guilt to those who were treated badly. That damn uppity black woman, doesn’t she know how you understand how the world works and how things must conform to that so you don’t feel uncomfortable? Two eyewitness accounts and yet you, who was not there,…

Yeah, well i’m a frequent flyer too. And if you really are, as you say, then you would know that if a person is upgraded on a companion ticket, it would be the companion ticket that got bumped, not the primary ticket holder. So GTFOH.

Just guessing here, you are white, right? Plane changes I can understand. Lack of communication or the fact that they wouldn’t acknowledge her, I can’t.

how does that in anyway address the difference in behavior exhibited by the staff?

Yeah, just lets forget about how Novack spoke about how she was treated compared to Baldwin, and just dwell on the fact that YOU’VE experienced flight issues and their experiences aren’t valid.

Man, when the racism is that refined, there’s some real effort that went into it. This whole story leaves me feeling like I need a shower.

I’m from Belgium. I read about a surgeon a couple of days ago who makes about €20,000 a month (roughly the same in $). That’s at least ten times more than the average person. He expressed regret at not having settled in the US because he could easily make €200,000 a month over there. Now there’s another health care…

No, nothing is being done. Countries that keep costs down do it by capping prices (either by law or through single payer type negotiation). I can’t see Ds and Rs finding a compromise that lets them limit companies’ profits.

Beth, is anything being done on the cost side of the equation. We keep hearing about health insurance coverage, but isn’t our insanely expensive healthcare the reason that insurance premiums/deductibles are so high?

What do we propose to do when Obama Care premiums jump another 50% and deductibles go up another $3,000 for the next year if something isn’t done now? Just an honest question looking at the future and asking for an honest answer.....

It should be on this list - the Wonder Boy “remake” is an absolute blast if you like zelda and 2d platformers.

“I was a parent of two and involved with the father of my children, but we weren’t in a relationship or anything.”

Sad and heart wrenching stories indeed. One thing I feel missing from the narrative is adoption. There needs to be more discussion about adoption. Folks need see this a a very viable alternative to abortion. Do you know how hard it is to adopt a child? Do you know how expensive it is to adopt? Very hard, and 25k on…

Lol at people thinking this was anything other than planned. This is just the way these people get free advertising for their games.

Spider-Man 2 for Plastation 2. Don’t remember anything about that game but web slinging through the city. Didn’t really even need a story if it had one.

Do you REALLY want a kid, or do you want a kid because your partner/their parents/your parents want you to want a kid?

After reading this post and some of the comments, I left with the impression that many people are barely acquainted with their children’s other parent.

Maybe I’m a bad person because of this.

You would think if they were doing a Metroid Prime 3 figure it would have the phazon thing on her chest.
