It surprises me when friends of mine, whom I know to have been supported hugely by their parents, talk about how poor people should pull themselves up by their bootstraps. People who receive financial support are at a huge advantage but they frequently don’t recognize their own privilege. Nobody makes it in this world…

If there is enough smoke, there is probably a fire somewhere. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/…

As with all cults, the majority of the cult members, male or female, are brainwashed.

Many of them are also guilty of terroristic acts. It is entirely possible to be both brainwashed and guilty. The fact is that some of these young men and women try to leave when they realize what they are really getting into while…

I have no indication that these girls carried out terrorist attacks. If they did, they should be held accountable, otherwise they are just brainwashed cult members.

Too few words for such an interesting story.

I have no idea if this story is representative of all nuns or not. It might be. I only know one Nun and she’s one of the best people that I’ve ever known. She’s been arrested protesting for immigrant rights and she’s out there in the community. She never forgets anybodies name.

She sounds like a bully. I don’t last too long with people like her.

Chemtrails!

These guys are long time anti-immigrant protesters. I’ve come across them a few times. They have found their leader.

The fact that I don’t notice for months and months means that I must not have cared very much in the first place.

She’s a hell of a writer.

I think that it’s both, things got better after the civil rights movement and then got progressively worse until we come to where we are now, with the school to prison pipeline. It’s also more visible because there are cameras.

Right, I think that it’s her grandmother, with whom she was living, that just died. I just want to hug this child.

“We don’t know the whole story”, says the white person who doesn’t want to admit that racism exists.

When I was a little kid, we at a lot of beans. My Mother was pretty hard core about nutrition though.

I have a pet peeve. There are a lot of people out there who want everyone to just eat Vegan! I try to imagine doing this in the slums of Baltimore where you have to take a bus to get to the nearest grocery store and that grocery store only sells cast off generics (you know, macaroni and cheese that comes in a white…

So, you I guess you were not entertained?
