I've called the police when I've seen DV happening, but I have *never* personally intervened, largely because I am fully aware that that would make things much worse for the victim later. It's not a lack of concern, it's an awareness of how the dynamic usually works.

As someone who grew up with a father who liked to beat the shit out of his wife (my mother) I would be reluctant to intervene because, while he might hold back in public, it would make the attack 10x worse when they got somewhere private. I think at most I'd try to make eye contact with the victim and gesture to see…

Comparing using an animal for nourishment and using an animal for sexual gratification has to be one of the more ludicrous false equivalencies I've heard.

All periods are not created equal. All I know is that I use an applicator and there's still fallout sometimes. If I go applicator-less, it's not something that can be easily wiped up. And what about the stuff that gets under your fingernails? Gross. I'm not sitting there digging it out from under my nails before I can…

Thanks for the explanation! There are some things Law & Order SVU marathons just can't teach you.

If catching the rich kid pot smokers isn't important, why is catching the poor ones?

Did you see this today?

I will never have an ounce of respect for Jenny McCarthy until she acknowledges all the incredible damage and suffering she's caused people by claiming that immunizations cause autism. Considering that the number of children who've died from preventable diseases, simply because of parents who don't want to vaccinate…

I would think using your position as a news anchor and an official news station related facebook page to spread false political conspiracy theories could be considered the kind of offense where it's not in any way discriminatory to shitcan you.

That was pretty condescending. His younger colleques were "not prohibited from discussing news stories or personal experiences on their KMOV Facebook pages." So other people could discuss personal stories...that doesn't mean anyone else went on insane right-wing conspiracy rants against the president. For you to say…

I interned there and I think I can predict who those two were . . .

Oh please. The 60 minutes guys practically died at their desks.

Right... that brings me back to the pressing question of: Who cares?

Because the last thing you want to do in that kind of weather is stick people on buses and send them willynilly all over town. You think what happened to that building was bad, you should see what it does to a car or a bus.
