I’ll translate your answer for him: Ugh, everyone knows your right, but its easier to pretend that slavery is a white people thing rather than a human institution that lasted for millenia and white people happened to end. So now I’ll make a pithy comment to insult your intelligence rather than acknowledge the truth…

The better challenge, perhaps, is "what's better"? There is no mechanism for selecting judges that is intrinsically better; and the involvement of the citizenry provides, at least in theory, a mechanism for a number of kinds of accountability. Yeah, juries can suck, but (I'm sure some will disagree) we've yet to come…

So then all you're saying is that the judicial system isn't perfect, which an incredibly inane and pointless observation. You also seem to have a tenuous grasp of why juries are given instructions. It's because if left to their own devices they will base their decisions on stupid shit (http://www.theweek.co.uk/uk-news/…

I don't understand it. I could see if she were mean or rude which I have never heard of her being but she just doesn't take peoples shit. I can imagine some of the dehumanizing things that she has been offered or asked to do in Hollywood being who she is.

I'm not sure that you can though? Unless we're trying to teach students that they should rely on teachers and administrators to solve their problems for them instead of standing up for themselves or learning how to tolerate the kind of asshole behavior that everyone in the world will inevitably experience in their…

Does anyone else realize that she left her baby in the freaking car?

Right. If you move past the lactation blather, it's clear that her constructive discharge claim was the problem. She didn't exhaust all possible avenues, she quit after three hours and then sued. I don't see how people are missing that.

Holy shit. I wish I could bump this comment up with a billion stars. You answered all my questions in plain English. Thanks! If she only went back for three hours and didn't give Nationwide's HR a chance to rectify the situation, I don't think she has a case regarding the constructive discharge, and that was her…

First, you linked to an article that contradicted your article. This time, you linked to an article thatlinks to an article that contradicts your article. So, the question is, are you the world's greatest troll, or the world's worst journalist?

The Raw Story article you quote here is completely inaccurate and misleading. I don't think the author even read the decision. The Eighth Circuit court of appeals said absolutely nothing about lactating men, they affirmed the dismissal of the case on a completely different basis - holding that the plaintiff could not…

oh there you go ruining the click baiteyness with logic and reason

You're right. It didn't happen.

The headline is false. The Supreme Court did not address this specific issue and did not rely on the fact that men can lactate as well in coming to its ruling. To quote the court itself:

My kid is in charge of a department that assists women who are in abusive relationships so they do not lose their children due to the fact they themselves have been abused. She assists them in finding safe shelter and goes to bat for them before the Court, I think it's an awesome program. It's interesting to note…

The real victim here is the dead baby.

Usually on right there with you on this whole "look how ka-ray-zee these sorority girls are" thing because yes, it is kind of mean girl and IDC, sometimes that's funny... especially when the things we're laughing at are not examples of sororities being service-oriented, junior professional networks (which they claim…

I really don't understand all this shaming. Because being in a sorority is so expensive, and there is an image to uphold, some sorority girls are not allowed to let other people (men or women) wear their shirts at all unless it was a philanthropic event where they sold shirts.
