Polls: Society & Politics

This is a very clear message. Most people are normal and hate fascist Trump, the crazies are the ones who think Trump is based.

And let this be a message to the Trumpers on this site too, the era of accountability is coming! I will actively work to make it a reality. The rule of law will be respected and justice restored in this country! All those in power who run right over it will face justice and ‘i was just following orders’ will not save them.

So you better choose wisely or be ostracized by vast majority for the rest of your pathetic lives!

I am amazed at what horrendous service I see at SO many businesses, particularly from gen z aged workers. It’s like they don’t understand that customers are the reason they have a paycheck

THAT IS SOME DONKEY DICK BULLSHIT RIGHT THERE!!! They're meant to do the same purpose - DENY ACCESS!! Looks like another email to my congressional prostitute!!

USA courts have generally held that the Fifth Amendment protects passcodes but not biometrics. The Fifth Amendment guards against self-incrimination by prohibiting law enforcement from compelling individuals to provide "testimonial" evidence—something that reveals the contents of their mind, like a memorized passcode. In contrast, biometrics such as fingerprints or facial recognition are considered physical characteristics, not testimonial communication, so courts have ruled that police can compel you to unlock devices with them.

However, there is no nationwide consensus, and some state courts have interpreted these protections differently, leading to a patchwork of rulings across the country. Generally, though, passcodes are more likely to be protected under the Fifth Amendment than biometrics.

I’m a bit of a stickler for words myself. So i am sort of measuring my thoughts against the norm here.
There are lots of ways to apologize, but only a few good ways. Is “I owe you an apology” any kind of apology? If so, is it a good one?

They act as if it’s gonna kill them to wait a few seconds to walk across the street. Instead, they think it’s necessary to officially stop traffic in order for them to walk across the street. They do this in areas where the speed limit is like 35 mph, and expect drivers to come to a sudden screeching halt just because they need to cross the street. Wait 4-5 seconds for traffic to clear instead of expecting for someone to slam on their brakes. You don’t need to officially stop traffic because you need to cross the street. You are not that important. These people seriously piss me off

What the research says

Studies of redshirting have found pros and cons. Some research has found that any boost in achievement fades away as children get older. Redshirting could increase high school dropout rates because older students would reach the legal age for quitting school earlier. It could also disadvantage men by delaying their entry into the job market.

The older students consistently scored higher on tests in third grade and, to a lesser extent, eighth grade. They were more likely to attend college and less likely to go to jail as juveniles. The findings were true for children of all backgrounds, but especially for boys and for children from low-income family. These traits, which girls tend to develop earlier, have been shown to be crucial to academic success.

Children develop this kind of self-control through pretend play, and older children probably spent more time doing that in high-quality, play-based Danish preschools.

A study of 400K children in every state found that those with birthdays just before the kindergarten cutoff were significantly likelier to be diagnosed with ADHD than those with birthdays just after the cutoff.

What else could help, if not redshirting?

A better alternative to redshirting all boys, some researchers said, would be to make it optional for any student so that parents could choose whether it was right for their child, with advice from teachers and the option to attend an extra year of public pre-K.

An easier change, some said, would be to make the cutoff date for kindergarten earlier, so all children would turn 5 at least a few months before they start. Teachers could group classes by birth month, with the older kindergartners together in one class and the younger ones in another.

Also, schools could restore more of the play-based learning — like dress-up, art and nature exploration — that was much more common in kindergarten before 2000.

As long as they arrest those you personally hate. Good luck

It is like the poorest and the most obese region in the United States!! Plus, they have the highest teen pregnancies rate in the country!! It is like the butthole of the country!! Plus, capital cities in the Deep South lack any clean water!!

The effeminate looking men, the women with straight-cut bangs, the Gothic or emo looking people...

The only semi-normal-looking people is on the bottom row, second from the left and the last

I expect to see more mugshots of women with horseshoe nose rings, blue or green hair, or shaved heads
