    The claim is not 100% true. She was appointed to the case, she did not volunteer. She didn't admit that he was guilty. She didn't get him freed. That makes you wrong in your claim that it was 100% true therefore I proclaim you mostly false.

    You have no idea how hard it is to get a tenure track position at a decent university or you wouldn't be posting nonsense like this.

    there is the notion of 'The who can't, teach'. Meaning being an educator is a dead last choice.

    For primary and secondary education, sure, but at a university level that is not at all true.

    Good thing Ann Coulter is not a faculty member at any university. You seem to have completely missed the OPs point, that the day-to-day classes and majority of interactions students have at universities have not changed for decades.

    It's not about salary. There are lots of candidates that would kill for those tenure-track positions. Your Chinese and Russian professors must have had better research qualifications.

    If it were advantageous in the evolutionary sense for 45 year old women to have children, and for younger ones to not, simple selection would ensure that women did not become fertile until they were much older.

    The flaw in that argument is that since we, as a species, have achieved an expected lifespan long enough to consistently make it to 45 years of age, no significant biological evolution has occurred.

    "Originally" (meaning before the 19th century) girls didn't reach puberty until 16-17 on average because of poor nutrition. Arguing anything about the intent of biology or that it "shows" us anything is nonsense. What makes humans different from animals is that we are not slaves to our biology, things are a lot more mutable than that.

    It is not a problem to make an "unwelcome advance" in a social situation, toward a person you don't work with. It is a problem when you have authority or leverage over them. I don't understand why this is so hard to get.

    What are you even saying, you just argued against yourself. Virginia is an open carry state but if the police detail hadn't been there no one would have stopped this asshole. The myth of good guy citizens with guns stopping bad guys with guns is just that, a myth.

    I'm not sure if you are aware of this, but not even people that support gun control are advocating that the police shouldn't have guns. Virginia is an open carry state and no private citizen heroes helped take him down.

    What we do know though... is that a couple of good guys with a gun, stopped a bad guy with a gun.
