Not wanting to have statues to glorify certain people is not the same thing as not letting those same people’s progeny live it down. Nobody is digging through genealogical records hoping to stick it...

Apparently he was elected shortly after the article I saw. It was definitely a bit of...
The US legislature is at least half lawyers. More than half of all presidents have been. It’s the same in New York, where I live. I did do a bit of research, and apparently Kansas is fairly unusual...
I think the real money in bass fishing is on YouTube. I would bet that Scott Martin and the Googans are raking in the most cash nowadays.
So, do you weigh the fish with the a-rig still attached or not? I can sort of see a case for either side.
It’s interesting that the NYPD is about 50% minorities and 20% women, but it’s a sea of white men behind him while he’s speaking. He knows his audience, I suppose. It would be easier to take him...

The Kansas State Representative who introduced the bill said that it was partially in response to the case in New York. Also,...
Out of curiosity, if it's not from the new that you watch (or read), where do you get the bs that you spout?
You were corrections, right? It is true that Kansas law had already addressed sexual relations between police and persons in jail, but it didn't say anything about if they had been stopped on the...
Despite what others are saying, you are correct about this. You’ll notice that the article and the “new law” are two years old. Two years ago is when that case in NY was getting a lot of press. It...
It seems to be a Michigan thing, too. It takes 1500 hours of training to become a licensed hairdresser in Michigan. 549 hours of training are required to be a licensed police officer in Michigan.

Most of those "historical" monuments were erected in the Jim Crow era, specifically to promote the white supremacist aspects of the confederacy. Taking down statues isn't erasing history. History is...
Why is it that you think that one side of a war is fighting for mirror opposite reasons than their opponents? That’s rarely the case. In simple terms, the south was fighting to preserve slavery, and...
To say that preserving the institution of slavery was not one of the primary reasons for which the Confederacy is a whitewashing of history. If you want to make the argument that the Union was not...
One can dream. Am I supposed to just quietly enjoy living in a police state?
That’s from the News Corp (Murdoch) owned NY Post.

Are Fox News and the NY Post **** news too?
It’s pretty embarrassing that I typed new for knew, but other than that, I must be missing what you see.
That sounds like the SS or the KGB to me. It’s not the sort of thing that should happen in a free society.
At least one set of tires they slashed belonged to a journalist, rather than a protester. Regardless, even if the cars belonged to protesters, I fail to see how exercising one’s first amendment...
In this case they have admitted as much.
So the best way to stop vandalism is to commit vandalism? Interesting theory.

There you go. No paywall, and from a News Corp source, no less.
Sounds like Wheeler got the shit end of the stick on that deal.
Or, when to use use or you. :wink:
