  1. Who among us knew that at the entirety of the Canadian political system was being held together by such the thinnest of threads
  2. Video of police breaking up New Jersey mall fight sparks outrage, investigation ABC7NY.COM Two Bridgewater police officers break up the fight, separating the teens and pushing the white teen onto a couch. The Black teen, however, is pinned to the ground with an officer's knee on his back and handcuffed. Even the white kid knows that this was garbage: ‘I didn’t understand’: Response to NJ mall scuffle ignites critique of policing PIX11.COM NEW JERSEY (PIX11) — It’s a scene repeated across the country: Teens fighting in a mall; in this case, last weekend at Bridgewater Commons in Somerset County, New Jersey. But what makes this …
  3. Because the person who pays over $2,000/year to keep this place running says so.
  4. Want to know which group has pushed the most for liberalizing measures in Trinidad? Teachers.
  5. WHY THE HELL ARE YOU STILL WATCHING FNC WHEN WE'VE TOLD YOU DOZENS OF TIMES TO STOP FOR YOUR OWN GODDAMNED MENTAL HEALTH?!?!
  6. There is and it's "absolutely zero".
  7. I will absolutely agree with this as there is pushback in places like Trinidad that are certainly very far from any conception of "American capitalism". The fact of the matter is that there is pushback because ultimately human beings are a pathetically weak-willed species.
  8. I see... Biden’s Afghanistan Counsel Left the White House in January. Now He’s Poised to Reap Financial Windfall From Billions in Seized Afghan Assets. THEINTERCEPT.COM The U.S. seizure of Afghan government funds after the Taliban took power has put millions at risk of starvation.
  9. I've decided to continue wearing mask because: (a) I really like that I've not gotten the flu or even a cold in over two years, and (b) I'm totally digging that only a portion of my face is visible to others, and when I rock a mask/sunglasses combination that I'm practically anonymous!
  10. Why is the White House stealing $7bn from Afghans? | Moustafa Bayoumi | The Guardian WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM To take Afghan money to pay grieving Americans in order to punish the Taliban is nothing less than larceny as collective punishment
  11. I can easily vouch for the book this miniseries is based on! We Own This City by Justin Fenton: 9780593133682 | PenguinRandomHouse.com: Books WWW.PENGUINRANDOMHOUSE.COM The astonishing true story of “one of the most startling police corruption scandals in a generation” (The New York Times), from the Pulitzer Prize–nominated reporter who exposed...
  12. I can definitely see the following sentence being used by couples going through marital strife: "Guess what? We aren't actually married in the eyes of the Church! I'm outta here!"
  13. If so, you've got a bit of a problem An Arizona priest used one wrong word in baptisms for decades. They're all invalid WWW.NPR.ORG The Catholic Diocese of Phoenix found that Rev. Andres Arango had been incorrectly saying "we baptize" instead of "I baptize." The error made thousands of baptisms and subsequent sacraments invalid. But wait, this gets even better! If this means that the sacrament of last rites was also invalid, then there some people who were probably a bit surprised when they ended up in purgatory
  14. Hell, this case is probably/definitely more of an annoyance to the prosecution that something that they'd actually want to take to court. The lawyer should be able to cut a deal with the prosecution on this one relatively easily.
  15. You meant to say "let them keep the ones they already had from the fall of the Soviet Union that were surrendered in exchange for security guarantees".
  16. Families of Sandy Hook victims settle with Remington WWW.BBC.COM The $73m settlement marks the first time a US gun manufacturer has faced liability for a mass shooting.
