It is so arbitrary that forensics can tell the race of a victim from say.. a thigh bone or dna or hip bone or... etc? Race is real and goes much deeper than skin. Humans should be treated with equal dignity but the "races" are really closer to unique subspecies and are quite real.
Let me pose a scenario to you. There is a man across the street that doesn't have a job and is a decent enough fellow. Every week though he waves around a gun saying that unless you give him $50 he will murder your family and the entire block to boot. Now, you know he has no intention of actually killing your family. What is your response to this man? You have three options: 1. The use or threat of deadly force 2. Ignore since you know he isn't actually a murderer 3. Just give him some money every week.
I'm sure one thing China would want to avoid is massive amounts of nuclear fallout raining down on their nation and radiation soaked refugees flooding their borders. There is no scenario under which NK could actually nuke the US without a devastating response that China would feel. Not that NK would actually do this.
That isn't accurate at all. Under Clinton NK threatens to nuke us and we say "settle down. we'll give you some stuff if you calm down." NK continues nuclear research. Then under Bush Jr they do the same thing, we respond in the same way and they inch a bit further into being a real threat to us and the region. Obama, same.
What is the solution to NK? How do we de-escalate? We've spent decades playing softball with them and allowing their continued research into nuclear armament.. at what point to we stop appeasing them and start dealing with them directly? When they can actually nuke California? The whole point of this isn't to nuke NK. It is to make China realize that we will strike NK if necessary and to finally take responsibility for this crazy nation on their border.
Based on this article it looks like Russia was funding BLM forums and such. I'd think that would help Hillary more than Donald. In reality it looks like they were stirring the pot on both sides which is kind of what they've always done which isn't too dissimilar to what we do in Russian by covertly supporting opposition parties in their country. In other words, nothing has changed and this story of them subverting the election is simply selectively highlighting something that has always been in the background for the purposes of pushing a certain narrative.
It depends on the terrain but when bow hunting I routinely get within arms length of whitetail deer. I wouldn't underestimate someone that unlike me has spent their entire life focused on hunting with primitive tools and who hunts in small packs of other men who have spent their lives doing the same.
I don't think at that height that a shotgun will do you much good. What we really need to do is release an animal that can prey on these problematic eagles. We have DNA for the Haast's eagle they had a 10' wing span and could make short work of these. A grant for a few hundred thousand from the mining company could get things started.
Sadly the choice is largely one of living like this or ditching the smartphone. I've chosen to be one of those sad figures in the crowd but.. I wont defend it as the correct choice.
As a small business owner.. that is often about the only way you can afford to hire -other than the illegal alien part. I don't know where people think we can come up with 1300/mo for an employee for health care in addition to all the other costs when you're just trying to get off the ground.
Everyone's life is a tragedy. There's nothing special that being black gives you. We all lose our fathers and our mothers. We all lose everything until we lose our lives and in losing those we carve out holes in the lives of those that love us that are never filled. You're no more special or attuned to tragedy than I am.
More than that, Lee disagreed with slavery and thought the dissolution of the Union a mistake. He fought to protect his state and people -the primary motivation of most in the south as very few actually owned slaves but many suffered under the tariffs and taxes. Lincoln actually offered Lee command in the north.
The civil war was far from the caricature that we are taught in school.
The most racist thing about the word n**ger is the way people infantilize black people with the assumption that they somehow cannot handle the odd pejorative when white people can. There is no word that has this power over me and the grooming of generations of blacks to feel like their legs have been cut out from under them any time someone uses this word is by far the most racist and damaging thing about its use.
Cats paw their way through a litter box then strut around on your counter tops and occasionally throw up nasty hair ball / half digested food concoctions. I'll take a dog.
Traditionally I believe it was a pejorative word that essentially meant "burdensome". Like a bundle of firewood that back in the day you had to cart home. In later slang it was interpreted more "burdensome like a woman". Basically firewood is handy and keeps you warm but its one more thing you have to cart around -like a woman.
There is quite a difference between substances we evolved to deal with ingesting over millions of years and new foreign materials though. I would think that as a rule, we'd want to err on the side of "this is unsafe until proven so" rather than the other way around.
Commutes in and through Indian cities are as I understand presently.. painful would I think be an accurate summary. That and a developing country will not have the miles of red tape and bureaucracy that has developed over the centuries in the US.

Which if the USSR or China of the 20th century is anything to go by would take care of their population problem...
Technically, the federal government is responsible for none of those things other than food safety laws.
That's right kids. If you must smoke tobacco, smoke cigars. Otherwise, just stick to pot.
You can put other things in e-cigs than nicotine. I have no experience with it but I imagine THC oil would be an interesting addition.

As an analogy it is very flawed I guess but I'd consider calling the police to be option 1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

So they are the geek community equivalent of MBAs?

It correlates to intelligence -which correlates to privilege.
