@JamieDoverNH Your best bet to get some of this through is to probably work with City Council to pass an ordinance or resolution that forces the FG&C division to take action.
@JamieDoverNH I couldn't agree with this more! Unfortunately, the Cemetery Board and Facilities & Grounds Staff are staunchly opposed to trying anything new. I tried to get green burial approved, but they found every reason possible to block it. Glad to have your voice on the board.
@vflesq @BillAckman@TIME This whole rebuttal is trash. You say settlers are blocking the food, but there are no Israeli settlers in Gaza. The settlers are in the West Bank, a pretty good distance away. There haven't been Israelis living in Gaza since 2005.
@BriannaWu It's ironic considering Jews have been at the forefront of social justice movements in this country since the civil rights movement, and probably before that.
@ronrule@NachoSlave777 You have to be very poor, especially in red states, to even qualify for SNAP. I have a disabled client who gets $23k/yr in SSDI, and they only qualify for $23/month of SNAP b/c they "make too much money." Rent in New England is almost 22k/yr!
@ronrule@NachoSlave777 Their position in life is already very uncomfortable. Taking away nutritious food will just make them more unhealthy and then cost tax payers more when they develop lifestyle diseases from unhealthy diets...
@Juliohothands@lorisiegel00@misfitpatriot I don't have a count, but I can tell you that the only people responsible for their deaths are Islamic jihadist terrorists who use them as shields... Don't start a war and then pretend to be the victim.
@UrinalChills@misfitpatriot Oh, and Israel is also used as a men's name. It means "one who wrestles with God," as the Jewish tradition around religion is to question and analyze everything. That's why there are so many conflicting opinions in Jewish religious texts.
@kenlovesbritney @lukemidlandsuk @cwchris_ One or two trans people throwing bricks at Stonewall does not a Gay Liberation movement make. They played a tiny part. Read history books.
@kenlovesbritney@cwchris_ When the Gay Liberation movement started transgender wasn't even common language yet. And there certainly weren't enough of them to claim that they were the backbone of the movement. It was predominantly gays and lesbians fighting for our rights.
@cwchris_ And they do it all while telling the LGB population that we aren't truly part of the community anymore, and that we're part of the problem. 🙄
@Alonso_GD 1st: Populations decline when faced with genocide. The population of Gaza has increased despite the war. Therefore, it's not a genocide by definition. 2nd: they're proposing sending them back to their indigenous Arabic lands, where they came from before they colonized the levant.
@trooper_cobb@MarinaMedvin First, you need to start using the definition of genocide correctly. A population significantly declines during a genocide. Gaza's population has grown instead, despite the war. So there is no genocide. Just war.
Jews are indigenous to Israel, so no reason they should leave.
@ferllenaf@MarinaMedvin The Nazis were trying to relocate Jews to a land they weren't indigenous to. In this case, Arab Palestinians would be relocated to an island under Arabic control, thus relocating the Arab Palestinians back to their indigenous lands, from before they colonized the levant.
