I think it's crazy the number is people here who think that jail/prison is supposed to primarily be about punishment. Do they not understand the concept of recitavism?

Fucking good. We need people to rein in all this culture war bullshit.

Isn't it illegal to take a citizen of one state and say they aren't allowed to do something legal in a different state? This is also just plain disgusting without the legality.

These people better see jail time. No one, fucking no one, should be able to attack children and get away with it. And all because they're scared that people are different from them. What childish bullshit that culminated in attacking the most vulnerable.

Holy fuck. What. I read through the articles on this and they don't touch on much of what it actually says. Most of it is just quotes. But the guardian has this bit about them dismantling the EPA and, among other things, making it illegal for the EPA to raise emission restrictions.

I hate how religious people are given permission to discriminate. Someone else's religion has nothing to do with me. I shouldn't be constrained by a religion that isn't mine and if someone can't provide care based on their religion, then they have no business being in the profession. None at all.

So about abortion being a states rights matter? That was just a joke, huh?

I'll never get articles like this. First off, Biden, specifically, is the one creating a price war? Huh, only him. No one else is engaged in any way, shape, or form.

Second, oh, he's only doing it because of the election. How do you know that? What proof do you have other than timing? Did you read his mind? That's a guess at best.

Third, why does the president always get all the blame or all the praise no matter what? We don't have a dictatorship (however much some people want us to). This has always seemed to be such bullshit to me. I hate how people act like the president is to blame for every single bad thing that ever happens that's even tangentially related to the government and given all the praise when other parts of the government did things that the president has nothing to do with.

Four, there's so much bias on this article that basically just says "Biden bad even though he's trying to help. Doesn't matter. He's still bad."

You are correct. Most of the world is experiencing price gouging and inflation.

The cop deliberately walked in front of her car and pointed a gun at her. She panicked. I'd probably panic too if someone pointed a gun at me. Granted, I probably wouldn't have drove forward, but it was entirely possible for the cop to not have walked in front of her car, for him not to have pulled a gun. It seems like him pulling the gun is what caused this.

So where's the "pro-life" party who is supposed to be so concerned about the "unborn"? Are they trying to help this family who lost a mom and her fetus? Hmm? Crickets.

Here's a taste of their plan.

"Unaccountable federal spending is the secret lifeblood of the Great Awokening. Nearly every power center held by the Left is funded or supported, one way or another, through the bureaucracy by Congress. Colleges and school districts are funded by tax dollars. The Administrative State holds 100 percent of its power at the sufferance of Congress, and its insulation from presidential discipline is an unconstitutional fairy tale spun by the Washington Establishment to protect its turf. Members of Congress shield themselves from constitutional accountability often when the White House allows them to get away with it. Cultural institutions like public libraries and public health agencies are only as "independent" from public accountability as elected officials and voters permit."

"Pornography, manifested today in the omnipresent propagation of transgender ideology and sexualization of children, for instance, is not apolitical Gordian knot inextricably binding up disparate claims about free speech, property rights, sexual liberation, and child welfare. It has no claim to First Amendment protection. Its purveyors are child predators and misogynistic exploiters ofwomen. Their product is as addictive as any illicit drug and as psychologically destructive as any crime. Pornography should be outlawed. The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned. Educators and public librarians who purvey it should be classed as registered sex offenders.

And telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered. In our schools, the question of parental authority over their children's education is a simple one: Schools serve parents, not the other way around. That is, of course, the best argument for universal school choice-a goal all conservatives and con- servative Presidents must pursue. But even before we achieve that long-term goal, parents' rights as their children's primary educators should be non-negotiable in American schools. States, cities and counties, school boards, union bosses, princi- pals, and teachers who disagree should be immediately cut off from federal funds.

The noxious tenets of "critical race theory" and “gender ideology" should be excised from curricula in every public school in the country. These theories poison our children, who are being taught on the one hand to affirm that the color of their skin fundamentally determines their identity and even their moral status while on the other they are taught to deny the very creatureliness that inheres in being human and consists in accepting the givenness of our nature as men or women.

Allowing parents or physicians to "reassign" the sex of a minor is child abuse and must end. For public institutions to use taxpayer dollars to declare the superiority or inferiority of certain races, sexes, and religions is a violation of the Constitu- tion and civil rights law and cannot be tolerated by any government anywhere in the country."

You've gotta be kidding. Wtf. Isn't there anyone who can effectively fight to maintain our environment?

Absolutely deplorable. I feel so terrible for those women. What an awful thing to go through. Even if a pregnancy goes well, it's still incredibly hard. It's also likely that the twin only lived because they selectively reduced the twin pregnancy in another state.

The argument against them is ridiculous. That it was really doctors who failed them? How? What's the logic in that? It's impossible to detect these birth defects before six weeks pregnant. We don't have the technology for it. But it's not fatal for the birth parent, so Texas doesn't care.

That their case should be dismissed because they had a "go fund me"? This one really gets me. How does a "go fund me" negate the actions of the state? Or is the logic really "they got money and they're only doing this for money?"

Nothing to see here. Nothing to hide. They certainly have all the evidence that Trump is innocent. They're sure to release it any day now. This only proves what he's been saying all along.

I'm always baffled by the amount of victim blaming. And seriously? Using quotes around harassment? You're a special kind of victim blamer, huh? First, it's their fault and second, it's probably not harassment anyway. Great job in telling women who are attacked and harassed that it's really all their fault and that the people who did it get off without a peep.

Can't wait until this is an option for my kids. I'll volunteer to help run the club.

They weren't smug at all. They suggested you not be hostile. It's not a crazy idea.

Except that guy isn't dead. The woman is. The cop has plenty of opportunities to do a really big part of his job, de-escalate, rather than do the opposite, position himself in front of her vehicle and immediately point a gun at her. He went right for the death threat and almost immediately delivered.

Christ, this has insane. Of course, I understand, but I also don't. How can you go do stuff like this? Wtf.
