@Jjohndonl7mr @DestroyNations @1PastorPR @ANTHONYBLOGAN It’s not worth debating about on Twitter because we won’t have all the facts regardless. The Lawyers, judge, and jury can handle it. I’m just curious why he was there. There could be a number of innocent reasons, but they are all fact dependent.

@BasedIrishDad @hrkbenowen I’ve tried cases. I think you are wrong for three reasons. (1) Dumb and smart jurors often seem to come to the same, reasonable conclusions. (2) You can’t tell who is going to be smart based on their race. (3) Judges and jurors often seem to be harder on people of their own race.

@1PastorPR @ANTHONYBLOGAN Saying “touch me and see what happens” while sitting in another team’s space and concealing a knife certainly feels like bait. Here’s my question: was he there talking to a friend from the school? That would be typical in Atlanta. If he was completely unknown, however…

If you were waiting on someone to do “science” to “prove” that going outside is good, you’re not going outside anyway. But at least now Amazon and Microsoft will be able to hack your biology to give you the same benefits with a device you can purchase and use indoors. 🙄

@SenatorWarnock Why bother if your mind is already made up?

I think our schools might be failing.

If any of you pro lifers get tape worms you better suck it up and be a good host, because tape worms have a heartbeat and feel pain. It deserves a choice and it chose you to be its mother.

If you aren’t ready for college calculus when you get to college, either your high school failed you, or you failed yourself.

Everyone is quoting the "30-fold increase" in underprepared STEM students at UCSD.

Since we're discussing math, it was actually about a 29-fold increase.

More importantly, these weren't students failing college. These were students placed into preparatory math courses rather than calculus after placement testing.

And "STEM" is doing a lot of work here.

STEM includes future biologists, nurses, veterinarians, earth scientists, environmental scientists, and computer scientists—not just physicists and mathematicians.

The assumption seems to be that every STEM student should arrive calculus-ready on day one. Why?

The more important question isn't where they started. It's where they finished.

How many completed their degree? How many completed the math sequence? How many remained in STEM?

Placement is a screening test. Graduation is the outcome.

@Harbinger0fD00M @ThrillaRilla369 You said “the better question…” and then asked a question that made you seem ignorant about these matters. Hope this helps.

@Harbinger0fD00M @ThrillaRilla369 The taxes are not for the purchase. You pay that at closing. Your annual property taxes pay for services you will be receiving in the future because you live there.

@GrumpyPantsVet @Milajoy They’re both pretending, goofball. Your tweet is probably going to be Exhibit D in some kid’s paper concerning the intersectionality of race bias and media epistemology.

@harvilla I just karaoke’s Birdhouse in a room full of millennials and it DID NOT WORK. So either I suck, or… well, maybe I suck. I don’t get it.

If you can name a child actor worse than the two child actors in Bloodsport, I’ll give you half an hour of free legal services.
