Reports find that sons, however, remain completely unaffected. In other news, new findings suggest that men never file for divorce. More after the break. e: Additionally:   The guy who shared this also spent Christmas eve arguing with feminists on Facebook. We've known each other for years, but this sort of poo poo depresses me.

At least two of them are "Yeah, duh", and the other two (well, one worded two ways) is pretty easily a very good point about how drivers should be more careful in these situations. Pretty sure that that's not his point, unfortunately.

into the void posted:Isn't the major point of driver's ed and traffic school "don't hit people with your car"? I think what the strawchildren are saying is "I should be able to run around with a total disregard to my own safety." There's an onus of care on both sides. People driving should watch carefully for pedestrians but pedestrians should also not be darting into traffic randomly. The argument is that people saying things like "you know maybe we should hold cops that literally murder black people accountable" are arguing that drivers should be responsible even if the pedestrian is charging at them trying to get hit.

I noticed the source was "Intellectual Takeout" which is probably the perfect name for a site that tells a person things they want to hear in an easy format but is ultimately really bad for them.

I think it's entirely about rape, rather than a Black Lives Matter thing. I'm surprised there isn't a #NotAllDrivers sign.

CommonShore posted:Did you... take a picture of the screen with your phone? No. I made a facebook post, copy/pasted it into paint, enlarged it by 500%, saved it as a .jpeg, used the Windows DPI scaling to shrink it down, THEN took a picture of it with my phone, then cropped it, shrunk it to 640x480 using the worst compression possible, then re-enlarged it with Paint, then uploaded it to imgur. I can only assume that's the process similar images on social media go through.

Skaw posted:Woah. If Trump is going to give all the unemployed people jobs personally, maybe he's not so bad after all. It's amusing because the right has been screeching about forcing people to go back to work for decades but actively supports policies that ruin the job market. A rather large number of people are no longer fooled by them. If they didn't become so vehemently opposed to any government spending at all I could see them maybe saying that but nope. Like if their message shifted to "OK we're going to roll back assistance programs and replace them with stuff like job programs" I'd not have much of an issue. You know, like...OK you want some welfare? Hey go work on these infrastructure projects for a while. We'll pay you for the year, give you a home, and feed whatever family you have. But giving anything at all to those people is viewed as a handout and anything over the poverty line is considered "too good." Granted they also consider "the poverty line" to be "has a refrigerator with more than a slice of bread in it."

Hell, that's basically the Works Progress Administration, part of the New Deal. "Can't find a job? The government will employ you as unskilled labour for public works." Which is something even the Democrats would get behind. What the GOP actually want to do is take away the EBT cards and replace them with...nothing.

Hijo Del Helmsley posted:Is "Tell strangers not to danger us" a controversial statement? Because, ideally, yes, strangers wouldn't endanger kids. It's controversial in the same way that saying "tell men not to rape women" somehow implies all men are rapists in the mind of whoever made that. Yet they have no problem telling all women to take precautions to avoid getting raped.

Lazlo Nibble posted:This would be Tammy Cooper. That editorial article doesn't seem very... reliable. I note that it doesn't indicate why she was arrested.

Officer arrested her because some evidence suggested that Cooper had been lying about having been sitting there watching them. The following undisputed facts were within Davidson’s knowledge at the time of arrest: posted:(1) a neighbor called the police at 9:56 p.m. and reported that Cooper’s two children, appearing to be five years of age or younger, were riding motorized scooters on a street at night without adult supervision; (2) when interviewed at the scene, the neighbor and another witness stated that shortly before the neighbor called the police, the witness was driving her vehicle on a neighborhood street and nearly struck Cooper’s young daughter, who darted out in front of her on a motorized scooter; (3) the two stated that Cooper’s young son was also on the street riding a motorized scooter at the time and that the two children were not supervised by an adult; (4) Davidson spoke to Cooper in her driveway, and Cooper denied that her children were almost struck by a vehicle or unsupervised and invoked her Fifth Amendment right to not answer any further questions; (5) Davidson observed that Cooper’s garage door was open, that the rear lift gate on Cooper’s vehicle was raised, that the hood of the vehicle was hot to the touch, and that Cooper’s son came outside and unloaded a twelve pack of Dr. Pepper from the vehicle; and (6) Davidson relayed the information he had learned to a Harris County Assistant District Attorney, who agreed with Davidson that there was probable cause to arrest Cooper for abandoning or endangering a child. gently caress I hate smug editorials that leave out key information.

In these contexts, "political correctness" means "things I don't like" or "showing basic concern for other humans", rather than anything to do with political correctness.
