Like flashing, I think its a sexual assault—just visually, instead of actual.

Their FB profile are full of memes of Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchins saying dismissive stuff.

...that being afraid to be out on the street alone at night is ridiculous

God, is there a legal defense fund for the family? As if they haven’t suffered enough, now this.

And the Teachers Union. Because

Is anyone here old enough to remember “Franks Place?” Set in New Orleans with a mostly black cast, and so intelligent about race identity, class and sense of place. It was funny, too. I’ve scoured the internet looking for copies, but I guess the music rights are what is keeping it from being reissued.

Google Glass. They eyewear of “nice guys” everywhere.

In some ways, it is like any other irreconcilable difference: She’s a devout Muslim, and you’re a practicing Jew.
