I try to think of it like having a rambunctious friend who takes me on inconveniencing but entertaining adventures

Not only did he allow it,

While the state asked for a nine-and-a-half year sentence, the judge handed Horcasitas a 10-and-a-half year sentence after being so moved by the video, Pelkey’s family said, noting the judge even referred to the video in his statement.

It has about as much evidentiary value as a ouija board, but since the victim was a veteran and involved with a church and the judge likes those things we can ignore pesky little things like standards of proof and prejudice

Meanwhile, because she's black in Texas prosecutors are still trying to throw Crystal Mason in prison for an actual innocent mistake all the way back in 2016 - https://www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/civil-rights-attorneys-urge-court-to-uphold-crystal-masons-acquittal-in-fraud-case/3684918/

A lot of people who think they're saying "[actual fact]" are really just stating "[subjective opinion]" and call any criticism of their opinions "[incoherent rage]"

Racism is the only reason why the entire Republican party is so popular

"That 81 year old is way too old for the job, vote for our 78 year old!" is a bold strategy

A spokesperson for SpartanNash, the parent company of Family Fare, said store employees responded “with the utmost compassion and professionalism.”

“Ensuring there is ample safe, affordable housing continues to be a widespread issue nationwide that our community needs to partner in solving,” Adrienne Chance said, declining further comment.

Warren said the woman was cooperative and quickly agreed to leave. No charges were pursued.

“We provided her with some information about services in the area,” the officer said. “She apologized and continued on her way. Where she went from there, I don’t know.”

Motion denied

Wowza, they actually went through that whole article without mentioning that the university ordered an NYPD raid on student protesters last week and issued suspensions against a bunch of them.

But, no, that couldn't have anything to do with these increased tensions, it's definitely 100% because this is the first day of Passover /s

It's just a Trojan horse for financially gutting public universities when we need to be getting rid of student loans altogether by using taxpayer money to support people's education

Great question tho, one people should always be asking about Republican bills

There's a good argument to be made he was the most evil president we ever had. Between

• prolonging the Vietnam war by five years through sabotaging the negotiations while he was still just running for president
• perfecting southern strategy campaigning and organizing all the neo-Confederates we're still dealing with as a new bloc of Republicans
• founding the DEA and kicking off the war on drugs to jail and destabilize anti-war protesters and the black panthers,
• all of the cheating he did during the 1972 campaign, which the Watergate break-in was only a part of
• Cheering on the genocide of Bengalis by Pakistani generals because "muh Cold War allies!"

the roots of a ton of our modern problems go back to this paranoid alcoholic racist piece of shit

e; had to add in the Bengali genocide

Welcome to the American corrections system, abuses like this and worse happen every day and we just don't normally hear about them because the defendants aren't famous like this one is

"For example, in 2019, guards force fed a Hindu man in ICE detention who went on hunger strike to protest the failure to provide vegan meals to him and other Hindus in detention."
