She Thought That Ban Planes Line Was A Bar.

As If Post 9/11 They Didnt Ban Essentially Everything You Could Have Taken On A Plane Before.

laptop.. iPad.. gotta go in separate bins

gotta take shoes off.. and anything metal or electronic out of your pockets

no liquids over 3 oz and gotta be in a single small plastic bag

unless you don’t travel at all or young as hell, you shouldn’t say something this stupid

They were just calling teachers "groomers" but now they want to arm them with deadly weapons.

Can't teach kids about how racist this country truly is but you can carry a firearm in the school.

 

[mplsdunk]

Teachers got more heart than those ho *** police.

Still a stupid idea.

Surprise surprise

A compelling argument:

Texas law's use of surveillance could further harm people of color

The anti-abortion law could further expose people in a legal system where they already face disproportionate punishment.

Today’s attacks on abortion access have a long history rooted in white supremacy.

So what use are they?

To protect property and serve White Supremacy.

What a trash person but I blame the people that vote for him or didn't vote at all more than I blame him.

i just wanna know how that story is supposed to make any of this better



let’s say that story is true wouldn’t that give more justification for why he shouldn’t have been able to buy those weapons of death and all that ammunition as soon as he turned 18?

i mean he shouldn’t have been able to anyways.. but IF the story is true, shouldn’t dude have had to jump through every hoop in the world to even dream of owning anywhere near what he purchased just after turning 18

Play to their base and deflect. Nothing is ever their fault.

But let’s apply that logic to a child molester

I just wanna understand the supposed benefit to their cause

Yes, the shooter could have asked the police for an escort to a nearby middle school and continued his rampage. Thank god for border patrol, who went outside their call of duty to end it, while the pansy cops sat there handcuffing and tasing parents of kids being murdered.

The alleged “pro-life” party holding everyone back from taking the necessary steps to prevent innocent people from dying. This is some 1984 ****.

As Tuesday’s primary runoff elections wrapped up late Tuesday, it was clear there’s still no end in sight to the low turnout that has plagued the March primaries and other Texas elections for decades.

In the first round of 2022 primary voting on March 1, only about 18% of about 17 million registered voters in this state cast a ballot. That figure is higher than turnout in previous years, but still means less than 1 in 5 registered voters participated.


Data from Tuesday’s voting looks similar, if not an indication that turnout was even lower. Turnout typically is lower in runoffs than other elections.

According to Sam Taylor, a spokesman for Texas Secretary of State John Scott, the overall turnout rate for the May 24 primary runoffs was 8.1%. Taylor said 1,410,814 total votes were cast out of 17,315,407 voters registered to vote in the runoffs. Over the past 50 years or so, primary runoff turnout in Texas has ranged anywhere from about 4 to 10%, Taylor said.


In Dallas County, 4.39% of registered voters cast a ballot in the Democratic primary runoff, and 3.02% voted in Republican races. In Tarrant County, the numbers were also low: 2.17% cast a ballot in the Democratic primary, and 5.68% in the Republican.

The trend was evident in large counties across the state. Harris (Houston), Travis (Austin), Bexar (San Antonio) and El Paso counties all reported low turnout rates in both primary runoffs.


Smaller, Republican-leaning counties by and large saw higher turnout rates than large counties did. Stephens County, west of Fort Worth, saw 17.87% of its registered voters cast a ballot in the Republican runoff. And Palo Pinto County, one county east, saw 16.21% of its registered voters cast a ballot in the GOP runoff.
