John Lewis may have worked alongside Doctor King, but he is also his own person. Note how he isn't invoking MLK's name while calling for non-violence? They share a history but they're not the same person. If he had said "Doctor King would have told you not to succumb..." that would be different, but he's speaking

I knew it was coming but was amazed at how McCulloh's speech made it so, so much worse. He blamed social media, he blamed the 24 hour news cycle, he blamed the witnesses, and he of course blamed Mike Brown. Oh, and the jurists "gave their lives" for this decision? I'd say the man was cartoon levels of evil, but

Congratulations on not making a mistake in who you married! She did and then she took steps to fix that mistake, which was an admirable thing to do on her part.

Way to completely misunderstand. Dude. It means if this were a woman, there would be rape threats and death threats, whereas he will get death threats. Neither of these is okay, but when a woman gets rape threats she is told "everyone gets threatened on the internet, it doesn't mean anything!"

It means when a woman speaks out she gets rape AND death threats, with the rape threats in greater measure. When a man speaks out he gets death threats, or rationalizations agains his point, but few to no rape threats. The woman will be told "It's not sexism, everyone gets threatened by trolls!" when in fact the

It is regionally much more prominent. I used to live in a large northern city and it was a daily occurrence for me, now I live in a medium sized Southern city and it pretty much never happens.

I've seen plenty of rape apologists on here so yeah, I'm betting there's plenty of catcall apologists.

And now comes the flood of "Not ALL Catcallers!"

Going to agree with everyone else here who said it was done on purpose. As the article states: "So although Map Maker's explicitly disapproves content that is "profane, obscene, or defames or attacks anyone,'" the editors wouldn't likely have noticed the naming of a private residential drive using a slur that was

There really is such a thing as too handsome. He is it. Also, he needs to go up at least a size on those cargo pants. Like, maybe two.

Trayvon didn't steal anything. You're thinking of Michael Brown, the other high-profile unarmed young man killed for being black.

Ugh. Sadly true.

The dead ones don't get blamed, but that's about it.

You might just enjoy The Vampire Diaries! It's surprisingly good, and Ian Somerhalder is really fantastic in it. He's super fun to watch, and they give him great dialog.

Again, what about the other twelve? You haven't acknowledged them and the fact that they were willing to testify with no payoff, not a single dime. Oh right, that doesn't fit your narrative so you'll just ignore it. My nephew uses the same arguing tactics. He's five.

And another twelve were willing to go under oath in support of the ONE accuser who was still within the statute of limitations, even though they could gain nothing. Not a cent.

The one woman who's statute of limitations had run out brought him to trial, and another twelve women who stood to gain nothing were willing to tell their stories under oath, but he settled out of court before they could. They wanted to put their hands on that bible and swear under oath what he did to them, and he

I hope you're very young, say in your late teens/early twenties? There might be hope for you if you are, otherwise I despair.

You might want to read her explanation before saying she "shares the blame":

It's perfect, isn't it? I only heard it a few months ago and want kiss whoever came up with it, whether we look alike or not.
