Any questions?
@eligedisciplina This guy with his hands in his pocket, leaning in and shoving him with his body, he very easily could have had a knife in his pocket and stabbed him. Depending on the jurisdiction, whether it's a duty to retreat or stand your ground state, that's self defense.
Nobody likes being told they're wrong, but the world isn't built around consensus, and it's especially imperative that teachers ARE corrected, so that their mistakes don't end up being a whole classroom worth of mistakes for each student to carry to wherever they put the lessons into practice.
I had 2 packages in 2 weeks "confirmed delivered" to my mailbox that is under lock and key, but they weren't there. I started an investigation with uspsis, and the next day called in a lost mail complaint and all the lost packages magically showed up in our mailbox in less than an hour.
Sending ballots in the mail to people who moved out of California years ago is corrupt.
Sending ballots in the mail to people who didn’t request one is corrupt.
Sending ballots in the mail to every address someone has lived in for the past 10 years is corrupt.
Letting activists sign up mentally unstable people for a ballot by using phony addresses is corrupt.
Not letting third party law enforcement officials check the voter rolls is corrupt.
Letting one political party control the entire process for decades leads to corruption.
You should have better reading comprehension if you're going to act like an authority on stories like this. The contract says, in plain English, that franchisees may offer "...consignment services, birthday parties..." in a list of additional services beyond retail sales of new and used merchandise.
There is probably a correlation between morality and sense of humor.
Larry Niven once theorized that humor is associated with an interrupted defense mechanism.
The idea is that you have a situation presented to you which would normally trigger a defensive response, but when you realize it is actually harmless, the response that you experience as laughter or amusement is your brain's way of derailing that inappropriate defense mechanism.
Because it isn't appropriate to fight or run away from harmless things.
This mechanism become easy to see when you look at very simple or developing senses of humor. To a baby, unexpected + safe = comedy gold.
And my cat Dante's favorite joke is "I BITE your toes! ... but actually, I don't bite them! I just lick them by surprise, watch you jump, then run away mewing and looking pleased with myself!"
Humor can become quite sophisticated, but I've never yet seen anything funny that couldn't be understood this way.
But there's a certain type of evil person who is evil precisely because they don't interrupt defense mechanisms.
They fight harmless things. Even beneficial ones. And they give you long lectures about how the harmless or even the wonderful thing is ackshually super-problematic.
This is the visible symptom of a form of neurotic hypervigilance which can, and often does, progress to the point of simply lashing out, figuratively or even literally, at random parts of the environment, because the brain has constructed some narrative whereby it's a threat.
The humor response is our natural way of not doing this.
I think you already follow me. Still voted for Steve Hilton though, and it pained me to do so because I wanted Chad Bianco to do well but it seemed like his support dropped off. I've got friends who know him personally and I like what Chad Bianco has done as Riverside county sheriff, other than the taking a knee thing for George Floyd.
@spencerpratt The decline is a choice.
You don't have to agree with Spencer on everything to know that he actually gives a damn and will try to fix things.
LA... you don't have to live like this.
You can do better than Mayor Bass.
VOTE SPENCER PRATT AND SAVE LA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
