Hi All,

I wrote this piece that appeared in Slate this morning: https://t.co/KpbUgUUD0m

My op ed on PA’s crazy gun laws: Pa. has a mind-boggling loophole in its gun laws that must be addressed https://t.co/8nPkGzNEj4 via @PhillyInquirer

@HoffProf You're mental! Don't you have enough things to do?

[Dana Bazelon @DanaBazelon]

@HoffProf They taste bad. And yes, my house is filled with them. Our people struggle with dessert.

[Dana Bazelon @DanaBazelon]

@HoffProf Is there any other way to give a power point presentation? The more gesturing, the better.

[Dana Bazelon @DanaBazelon]

@HoffProf We had many important things to cover! There was not time. Imparting of the knowledge must come first!

[Dana Bazelon @DanaBazelon]

@HoffProf 9/13 response rate. No incentives given, but multiple requests and reminders. No class time was allotted.

@JohnFPfaff This is really interesting. I have the following thoughts: (1) changing what we call ourselves will be viewed as retreating; (2) who cares what the adjective is? (3) "Progressive Prosecutor" has the benefit of alliteration, which makes it memorable.

@K_Nicole_Hudson Also, don’t be too hard on yourself. It is so challenging to devote yourself to your work AND find the time and the patience to be the parent you want to be. Some weeks are better than others. Love sustains us.

[Dana Bazelon @DanaBazelon]

This is so heartening!!
Juvenile-lifers released in Philadelphia are doing well https://t.co/MYMzquQ86a

[Dana Bazelon @DanaBazelon]

@emilybazelon This encapsulates so much about what is wrong with the criminal justice system!

[Dana Bazelon @DanaBazelon]

@K_Nicole_Hudson I can’t get my six year old to stop climbing in my bed. Every night we bargain. It’s a slippery slope.

This is a very interesting study on the impact of court-related debt on defendants' ability to have their records sealed. Should unpaid fees really prevent people from moving on? https://t.co/5Aqk3r8Z7w

@HoffProf Property law is fascinating! Contracts are where you lose me…
