I had a similar, if slightly more depressing thought: This guy hacked a database and got four years, while my high school teacher who raped two students got nine months.

A bunch of Woodward and Berenstain’s we got over here at Deadspin.

I’m a Journeyman Ironworker out of Local 709 Savannah Ga. January 20 @ 1159 I quit my job building a DOE/NNSA fuel processing facility. I couldn’t fathom even technically working for Trump for 1 minute. I had a new job Monday @ 0600. I can afford to put principles in front of paychecks because I work Union. Organize…

You make a powerful argument. It is the same I say to people who “hate” Donald Trump and wish that he were assassinated. Isn’t enough to just want him out of office? Hate implies that you wish he didn’t exist. I don’t hate this woman for what she did but I do hate what she did. As for how remorseful she is and her…

Once again, a thoughtful, well-researched and well-written piece from Diana Moskovitz. Thank you for what you do.

I don’t want to diminish the pressing need for Baylor and everyone associated with the Football program or university administration to be set on fire but as awful as all this sounds it does sound like the result of what happens when you create a black market economy for something incredibly valuable.

Because we need each other

Things CAN change. I am ashamed to say it but i came from a very racist upbringing. I am PROUD to say i broke that chain, and my two beautiful girls wont have to carry that burden of hate around. I’m also a cop, so trust me, i see a lote of hate out there, and i also see a lot of change. Things can change, things will…

“When Carolyn herself [later] lost one of her sons, she thought about the grief that Mamie must have felt and grieved all the more.” Let me guess, her son was being falsely accused of harassing a pure white woman and subsequently tortured and murdered? If not, your grief is NOTHING compared to Mamie’s grief and the…

He also appeared on the David Letterman show, which prompted Letterman, midway through a rambling interview, to stop and ask, “Why are you here?”

Ruined HER life! Oh fuck you, just fuck you. You got to live 82 years and that baby was condemned cause of your lies.

Actually littering is more of a socioeconomic issue rather than a cultural thing. Most people (race makes little different) that come from economically better backgrounds tend to be more mindful of littering and the surrounding beauty of their communities (ie: an outward view and a concern for how others view them)…

I get what you’re saying, and I see the relevance. I doubt the neighbor would have so much as touched the kid if he wasn’t completely fed up with cleaning trash away from his property.

“I made a really, really, really dumb mistake. I fell for an obvious con. I need to become a better-informed person. I need to work on my cognitive thinking abilities. I’m ashamed of what I’ve done and I regret my stupid choice very deeply”. I’d accept that.

to paraphrase the words of white man, louis ck, the whole city is litter. what do you think these houses and that pavement are.

Co-author? You’re giving trump waaaaaay too much credit.

Littering isn’t a “back” thing. It’s a poverty thing.

Yup, this. They’ll just raise the price to offset the increase.

I might be coming at this slightly uninformed - but wouldn’t a tax on these goods just be passed along to the consumer in the form of higher prices for these goods? So, in effect, we’re still paying for the wall out of our own pockets?
