    Man 30 years on death row freed

    If independent analysis showed the bullets didn't come from that gun, and he was clocked in at work 15 miles away, it starts to become rather conclusive that he didn't do it.

    Religious discrimination

    After she failed to show up for court and then didn't contact the court to explain why, and obtain another court date is also unknown, but it certainly bolsters the assumption of stupidity. :D

    No boys, no girls

    Bullying has always been discouraged, but only recently has it been criminalized (among with many other natural behaviors). Many of these behaviors are not only found through nature to aid in the survival of species, but in humans they can be critical for a coherent, stable and durable society...

    Here We Go Again

    How? No one at the Safeway knew their identity. The cop didn't know the names of the suspects. Showing their ID would have proved who they were, but all it would have proved. That's a logical fallacy. Mistaken identity isn't a civil rights issue, for one thing, and civil rights activists claim...

    Religious discrimination

    The arrest warrants (plural) were not for an expired license, but for failing to previously show up for court.

    No boys, no girls

    But none of that is science, which is my point. It's a social agenda, getting people to think and act differently. It isn't about a restroom, or freaking out of your son plays with Barbie instead of GI Joe, or children made to suffer, really suffer, because of society's failings on gender roles...

    When we get rid of all the cheap Russians, then who ya gonna blame on the low rates? Because the rates were low before the Russians discovered expediting.

    I know it is your opinion. It is my opinion, based on your own words, that right out of the gate you blamed the victims. I never said otherwise. Believe it or not, I've already stated in this thread some of the justifiable reasons. Confirming their identities wouldn't have proven their...

    FedEx back in the news...

    I thought it was rather even-handed reporting. The reporter offered no conclusions or editorial comment. The reporters relayed that the CHP said fatigue might have played a role, but it might not have, as the driver had plenty of time off prior to his shift. They also listed the possibility of...

    Here We Go Again

    A classic case of the police reporting all the right buzzwords and catch phrases, some of which are just laughable in this case. When police arrived they found Bill Swan up on his tractor. They told him to get down but he ignored the order. He then tried to back the tractor into the police car...

    Here We Go Again

    I'm not misrepresenting anything. You flatly stated that the same two men who were shot by the police officer was the same two men who attempted to steal beer, and that the same two men accused or resisting arrest. "...two black men attempt to steal beer from a Safeway in Olympia, WA get shot...

    Do we know who this is?

    It can sometimes be tough to remain 4 or 8 seconds back of you don't realize the vehicle way up in front of you is no longer moving out of moving really slow, as in this case. You're constantly scanning the road and mirrors and you see the vehicle a quarter mile up ahead, you scan some more...

    The gunshot victims. The ones who were merely suspected of stealing beer. No, right out of the gate, before all the facts are known, you presented the two gunshot victims as being guilty of attempting to steel the beer. Go look at the OP and look at your own wording. They attempted to steal...

    I don't know what it is with me and Texas border towns for Memorial Day, but 8 out of the last 10 years I've been in Laredo for the holiday weekend. I couldn't do that if I tried. Two years ago I deadheaded up to San Antonio on Sunday because it was 15 degrees cooler up there, and then 2 days...

    You're trying to defend something that you don't really understand, and you're putting it in terms that you do understand in order to defend it. This isn't about men freaking out about toddlers liking to wear pink, playing with dolls, or possibly training themselves for entering show business...

    It can be tricky, because once you give someone lawful access to the vehicle, it's not necessarily stealing if they have the vehicle. Under the laws (in most states, maybe all of them) taking a vehicle for temporary use when prior authority has been granted, or can be assumed such as in family...
