Her statement of
"That's how we're gonna win. Not by fighting what we hate. But saving what we love."
is the purest statement of the overarching theme of Star Wars that there is. It's beautiful and essential– her character is great.
Discrimination is wrong.
Using religion as an excuse to discriminate is wrong - and unconstitutional.
The Court’s minority is right: the Constitution is no license for a business to discriminate.
Today’s ruling will move America backward.
No, you dipshit.
It doesn’t mean that at all.
What this means is that the kids of white Harvard students will continue to get legacy rides and white students with more privileged backgrounds will benefit from tutors, better schools, and more resources simply because of a system created to perpetuate inequality.
What it showed us is that the right is on a crusade to eliminate all progress we’ve made on racial issues in this country and take us back to an evil time in our history.
It showed us that every election matters.
Michelle Obama said it best.
“So often, we just accept that money, power and privilege are perfectly justifiable forms of affirmative action, while kids growing up like I did are expected to compete when the ground is anything but level.”
You and your racist friends are unfit to be a part of our government.
"Today I went to Dunkin' Donuts and saw a clearly homeless guy sitting on the side of the road and picking up change.
Eventually I saw him stroll into Dunkin, as he was counting his change to buy something I began to get super annoying and talked to him over and over again even when he didn't really want to talk.
Since he had maybe $1 in change I bought him a coffee and bagel and asked him to sit down with me. He told me a lot about how people are usually very mean to him because he's homeless, how drugs turned him into the person he hated, he lost his mom to cancer, he never knew his dad and he just wants to be someone his mom would be proud of (along with another hours worth of conversation.)
This lovely mans name was Chris and Chris was one of the most honest & sincere people I've ever met. After realizing I really need to get back to class Chris asked me to wait so he can write something down for me.
Handing me a crumpled up receipt he apologized for having shaky hand writing, smiled, and left. I opened his note and this was it. 'I wanted to kill myself today, because of u I now do not. Thank u, beautiful person.' "

ESPN’s Bobby Marks criticizes Damian Lillard for being reluctant to leave Portland
“I don't want to hear it anymore on these shows.... Either the roster is good enough and you're content... or go in there and ask to be traded. Like a lot of players have done. Jimmy did it, and it worked out better for him. With Lillard, if it's not now, when is it?”

Josh Smith, PP, and Lance past primes, blake and jordan couldnt shoot, jamaal and paul were solid but couldnt carry a chip or succeed when both were on the floor, reddick was a one trick pony on offense. Easy.
