No they arent, this is a blatant lie. compare black areas to mostly white states like VT or NH. Not even high prevalence of gun ownership can counteract the sheer difference in violent crime rates.
It immediately goes on the offensive against the previous librarian for no reason whatsoever, then quickly jumps on the defensive to preemptively dismiss any criticism as thoughtless racism.
If race isn't a factor, then why did i immediately predict that it would be a black person as soon as I saw the article headline?
I'm sorry, cut and paste quote? You still assert that only a right wing listener would complain about unions. What reasons were you a union supporter again? Forgive me if I haven't agreed with any of your points, because you haven't given any.
If anything, when you said "Thinking of a union as a for-profit enterprise where the profit comes from worker dues, means you really don't understand unions at all." flies in the face of my time working at a hospital, when the union i was forced to join in spite of voting to join it gladly took my dues, but never lifted a finger to help me when the management underwent a serious shakeup that led to many people being fired and replaced with out of state cronies of a new boss. At least that hospital went down the tubes a few years later.
I know everything I'm saying is anecdotal, but so are most of the modern unionist articles and astroturfed blogs. Maybe some people really have a great time and a union literally saved their life. It's possible. But i'm a person whose crossed paths with many unions across many fields and not once has any of my personal experiences shown me anything good about them. I may be a rare outlier who by sheer chance only happened to see the bad unions, but then... if you know anything about statistics, that'd be the more absurd possibility to assume, wouldnt it?
I dont listen to right wing anything. I personally saw hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of brand new equipment and supplies walk off job sites and disappear into the ownership of these union companies during the big dig. I saw white envelopes lining people's pockets, and i saw good workers utterly screwed by the unions that they had trusted to look after them. I had no pull to fight it back then, but today I wont stand for it.
It's telling that you must assume nobody could possibly say anything bad about unions unless they subscribe to some OTHER political ideology. I think you're the indoctrinated one.
Thinking of a modern union as anything else shows that you've been keeping your head in the sand for the last few decades.
Ask any union supporter why unions are still relevant and they'll no doubt prattle on about things unions did 100 years ago.
Remember that time unions bilked the MA tax payers out of 10 billion dollars in their big dig scam?
That's right, all they have to do is ban large gatherings and the terrorists won't be able to hide their hijinks anymore. Everyone is going to be so SAFE now!
I play Kerbal Space program so I can visualize exactly what that orbit profile looks like. But it'd be more apt to say the space shuttle is diving down to the backside of earth.
Its only fair that the NBA and NFL need to step up their game as well. They've always preferred 'minority' employees. It's time they stopped their racist hiring practices.

Just 20? Boy do you have a short memory...
Maybe he missed that day and was too embarrassed to admit he didnt know how to turn it on for the rest of the semester.
I like the cut of your jib.

Not to mention how it quickly jumped to defend this new nominee by playing the "racism card."

...The Man From Mars.
Robots, including surgical robots perform preprogrammed tasks. It isnt even close to artificial intelligence.
The only thing that's really changed is the fact that people consider chatbots and calculator-level logic to be "AI" these days.
Yeah, if Mossad isnt letterbombing old men, they're kidnapping and torturing people.
I'm not going to turn off my adblocker for them, since the last time i did, they tried to serve me malware. I should just blacklist their domain.
Might i suggest a completely unloaded and dreary Toyota Yaris for you then!
I can do without the dvd player, but just give me a music hookup and I'll be fine.

fire alarm control panels are still sometimes hooked up to dot matrix printers.
An affirmative action government hire is caught entrenched in corruption and theft. Who is even surprised any more?
Get the fuck off slashdot, you filthy creep.

"Ansel Halliburton an attorney at Kronenberger Rosenfeld" It's like a perfect storm of proper nouns!
Do not negotiate with terrorists. Excellent outcome.

Just lick all your books so everyone is too grossed out to take them.
Britain... The only right-wing government that's more left-wing than right.
