Social studies was history? And civics and economics and religion/philosophy and geography. It’s just the overarching name for the study of human society.

No, that was certifying the election (where Congress counts the electoral votes). Inauguration is the 20th.

6 days until that happens.

Bet they made the processor you used to write that comment.

I think your ratios are backwards? ((1*75%)+(2*0%))/3= 25% but ((2*75%)+(1*0%))/3=50%

Edit: unless it’s anything 20% to 50% that works.

I think it might struggle when comments get deleted. And this comment chain is a bit of a mess start to finish haha

The article didn’t specifically show other age groups but it did give the overall number which shows more disapproval, implying that older age groups found it less acceptable. It also links to the survey that shows the different ages’ break down:

The survey from Emerson College Polling found 68 percent of all respondents found the actions of the person who shot and killed Thompson unacceptable.

The comment was in reference to their misunderstanding rather than any doubt about what landlords are doing.

I think you misunderstood the issue. House/apartment rental companies use software to price fix with each other.

Depends on where he lives and what he wants to do. He’s still a felon and in some states it affects your right to vote, right to own a gun, receive government assistance, etc.

“Approve my claim or i’ll kill you” is not a warning. it’s a threat.

Yep that would be a threat. That’s not what she said though. She never said she’d do anything. She was just pointing out that someone was recently killed for the behavior they’re exhibiting, so if they’re going to keep doing that behavior, it stands to reason the same thing will happen to them.

You don’t want drug addicts being solely responsible for a newborn baby do you? The only way to be sure that doesn’t happen is to test people.

I don’t know if the original intention was just that naïve or if it was always sinister, but it’s definitely used in discriminatory ways and does more harm than good.

We have tons of video evidence of cops planting evidence for smaller things than this.

It’s a McDonald’s. Do people even look up the reviews for a McDonald’s before going?

You got to read more of the sentence:

The killing has sparked public outrage and dark humor on social media, reflecting widespread frustration with health insurers

The outrage isn’t about the killing. The outrage is about the health insurers. The killing is just the spark that got us all to talk about it.

Clinton pardoned his brother for selling cocaine. It’s not like this is the first time a Democrat has done this.

It depends on if you assume controlled substance applied to every item on the list or if being addicted to any simulant would count. How I read it, if alcohol counts, so does caffeine.

It isn’t a win. But it isn’t a loss either. It just doesn’t matter.

Maybe it’s a step towards losing that holier than thou attitude and actually getting things done.

Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance? Warning: The use or possession of marijuana remains unlawful under Federal law regardless of whether it has been legalized or decriminalized for medicinal or recreational purposes in the state where you reside.

I could read that to include being an alcoholic. But I can also read it as being addicted to caffeine.

when basically the only messaging we sent out during the entire 2024 campaign was that we were the morally superior choice. That someone who doesn’t respect the rule of law has no business being president.

And how exactly did that work out? I don’t think moral superiority is at all a helpful thing in politics.
