There is a pretty big hunger strike going on at Tacoma's Northwest Detention Center, a for-profit immigration detention center. 750+ inmates so far. It is ran by GEO Corporation (yes, it is as bad is it sounds)

Are there any good papers on raising the minimum wage in large cities? Trying to explain to people the correlation between wage stagnation and productivity increases along with cost of living increases and other factors doesn't seem like enough to convince people. I don't understand how working class people actively hate other working class people -- who are often lower socioeconomically -- for winning minor wage increases. edit: english im gay fucked around with this message at 04:20 on May 5, 2014 |

Reason posted:Looks like one of those kids that got shot in Oly might be paralyzed from the waist down. They're both saying they didn't attack the police with their skateboards. When are we getting body cams in Oly? They don't even have dash cams apparently. So probably never.

A group on Stormfront is organizing a rally in downtown Olympia tomorrow in support of the OPD. Last time they did this a few months ago it got pretty violent. im gay fucked around with this message at 09:22 on Sep 5, 2015 |

A lot of bills are created and never brought up in committee let alone brought to the floor. House bills are especially retarded because there are a bunch of idiot republicans doing dumb poo poo and trying to be martyrs.
