If you’re such a coward as to be afraid to confront someone without a gun don’t be a cop. If you can’t deescalate a situation without shooting someone don’t be a cop. If you fear for your life with multiple other officers backing you up against one guy with a knife, don’t be a cop.

When I’ve been forced to stand (because of some dope who refuses to walk on the left), I’ve always left a step between me and the guy in front. And that seems to be the overall pattern I’ve observed using escalators in NYC for almost 20 years. Walking is not much different.

Jeezus, she is insufferable. Honey, you are not the first couple to figure out that if you are not assholes to each other the kids are better off. Trying to reinvent this as something other than that is pathetic.

Right, but that’s guided, one-on-one coaching.

“Friendly advice” is howled from the stands by pretty much every fan in an arena at all times, and isn’t considered to be crossing a line.

And that’s the problem. She tried to move on and do something different, but she couldn’t because that’s what she was known for. He continued to be very successful on the speaking circuit and still polled well with women. He got to have a life. She didn't.

If the cases NY is bringing against Manafort were particularly strong, probably Mueller would have prosecuted them.

Or maybe, stay with the paranoia here..., maybe the DA is bringing charges that will result in securing donation pledges from these families for his/her re-election campaign. And mayyyyybeeee those charges will be dropped or minimized once those pledges are secured.

Private schools and charter schools are not the same. Kids going to private schools are paying for the school, not the city. Their parents still pay taxes that go to public schools but they are lessening the load on the public school by not taking up a space. Are you thinking of the voucher programs (that tend to…

You need better bait.

Legitimate question after reading this article and several others. All the articles indicate the students were “unaware their college admissions were premised on a bribe.” Okay, fine. But as a 17 or 18 year old, wouldn’t you be aware that it is unusual that someone is in the testing room with you giving you help and…

You didn’t read the article, did you? And also, since you didn’t read it and I’m assuming you’re a little young to remember what actually happened, Wikileaks helped to expose some... shall we say... bad?... practices of the US military overseas. At the time Wikileaks was seen to be a “good guy”. The US government is…

The policy was bad and she shouldn’t have supported it on its face; regardless of the number of families it would go on to affect. Bad policy is bad on paper before it harms anyone in the real world. Any “top cop” should know as much, let alone one billed as progressive. I’ve got no strong feelings about Harris the…

Would also like to mention the fact that idiots supporting the repeal of Net Neutrality, which would give ISP’s de-facto control over your online content, are the same idiots complaining about getting “censored” on Twitter and Facebook.

Lol first amendment... Clowns like you should learn when the first amendment actually applies (hint: it says in the text of the amendment itself!)

It’s because every collector is different, generalization is impossible, and articles like these don’t help.

That’s the thing with sycophants: they’re despicable enough to do the crimes, but have the wherewithal (unlike the narcissist they suck up to) to take into account the possibility they’ll be caught, how bad that would be for them, and that they sure as fuck aren’t going to prison while the king of the vermin scurries…

“...if pictures like this change what the ideal is in some way doesn’t benefit us all?”

Literally none of that is true.

“Some of us, not me, pinched our noses and voted for Hilldawg.”

You are giving the article more credit for scientific robustness than it deservers. It was a shallow pass at a mildly interesting set of limited data. Maybe (probably) it is accurate for the average NYT reader, but that doesn’t actually translate to the US as a whole or people as a whole. Spotify is decidedly…
