Mandatory DAEP for vapes is obviously a really bad idea, and a great way to absolutely overload every DAEP across the state, but it is interesting that Bryan ISD got an exemption partly because they were already testing them for THC immediately. Drugs were already one of the mandatory reasons to get sent anyway.

I have a Comms degree  https://twitter.com/voxdotcom/status/1779880844372463696 I saw this the other day and I was like "I bet this isn't true, I'm not even going to read it" (we're one of the states) and https://twitter.com/wyatt_privilege/status/1780599360394608721 Progressive oriented media needs to stop lying to its readers for clicks, it's doing the republican's job for them. Like going around bleating that "it's soooo hard to vote in Texas", people hear that, believe you and then don't even bother. zoux fucked around with this message at 15:51 on Apr 17, 2024 |

Unless I am misunderstanding, it sounds like it makes it a lot riskier to lead a protest to me. If anything illegal happens at a protest you know cops here will charge the organizers as well.

The tweet a couple post up says "The 5th Circuit held that protest organizers..." Held usually implies a decision has been made. If the SCOUTS doesn't intervene wouldn't that mean the 5th's decision stands?

DeRay McKesson was leading a protest, and he led them up on a bridge. Someone threw a rock and hit a cop, the cop sued DeRay as the protest organizer, a lower court threw it out and the 5th held 2-1 that the suit can proceed. That's what happened.

Thanks for the clarification. Not as bad as the headlines make it, but still pretty bad. Allowing the case to go forward just gives cops another avenue to make organizing protests risky. Whether he wins or loses, he is still paying lawyer fees and losing his time to defend himself.

Here's SCOTUSBlog's more complete summary of the casequote:The Supreme Court on Monday declined to intervene in a lawsuit filed by a Louisiana police officer against a leader of the Black Lives Matter movement who organized a protest at which the police officer was seriously injured. The court’s denial of review in Mckesson v. Doe was part of a list of orders issued from the justices’ private conference last week.

We don't have decent rail in Texas because it's a battle between Republicans wanting to protect rural farmland from commie train companies and Republicans wanting to oppress poor people by stealing their land for public projects.

You can go from Austin to Houston by train, you go to the bigger city nearby, and then go from San Antonio to Houston. It takes 16 hours, 3 hours from Austin to San Antonio, 5 hours from San Antonio to Houston, and then 8 hours waiting at the station because the schedules aren't really aligned right. The bigger issue is a cross between Amtrak not getting enough funding or authority to have useful passenger trains in the west, as well as the general lack of train culture to ensure that the populace would take full advantage of expanded service and make it worth Amtrak's effort. But if you want, you can go over to those Dallas high speed rail people to go looking for a technological solution that won't ever be built.

Technically that is actually happening and still in progress, although resolving a planned murder via liability in a civil trial is the result of a failure of the criminal courts.

Don't forget that the freight companies that own the rails won't allow Amtrak to use certain lines because there's no time for the amtrak trains to go on them despite the rails being completely unused.

If the case is allowed to go to trial, the attorney general could face private or public sanctions, ranging from a warning to disbarment. Texas law does not require the attorney general to hold bar membership.
