To the first guest (and all non-Americans), the health clinics, fairs, medicaid etc. are not very accessible and certainly not going to aid in stage 4 cancer on an initial visit. It's not "a few extra forms" it's an intense review of you and your family, your financial history (just lost your job or homeless for years), and not timely. I have EXCELLENT insurance and my simple, non-invasive, out-patient surgery left a balance of $700. The system is broken and the patients are going broke--or dead!

Corporate attorney, here: Not exactly, mrsuperman8942. The law states that a company cannot refuse to hire OR fire a person, based exclusively on their race. Because corporate environments are overwhelmingly white and many persons of color wouldn't have access to jobs purely because education, connections etc. some businesses that lack any diversity will have one minority-only position for their most basic positions (like an media internship) to encourage non-whites to apply. It NEVER removes a spot, it only adds an additional spot. These positions are NEVER heavily coveted fellowship positions, just positions that POCs never seem to get. And often, if a minority doesn't claim it, the business just adds another white person so there's no change to the status quo.

Incorrect, my dear @bethorien. Sexuality, or sexual orientation, by definition refers to a person's attraction to a gender/sexual identity. "Children" is not a gender, and therefore not a sexuality. If children are "your type," then you're a criminal with a mental problem.

Yeah the statute of limitations for perjury is 5 years. Which is probably why she waited for 5 years and 2 months to confess.

Well the Academy makes the choice. So either no woman that attempted was good in any of these areas, or some form of bias (implicit or otherwise) is keeping the Academy from selecting them.

The other one, "literally threw my head back", pokes fun at OP's misuse of the word "literally." One cannot literally throw [just] their head as it is attached to one's entire body.

nahhh. It's a descriptor of what you like when you say I'm a sapiosexual. Not of who you like, such as sexuality. You can't "come out" for that.

Disagree. Plenty of us still fear being killed by the police, deported, gay-bashed (Jussie Smollett), missing a pay check and a host of other things. As a gay Black man in my region, I live in a state of perpetual fear of what will happen to me next in America.

1. More like 5 days ago... But Trump has "uninvited" the Warriors to the White House before.... and the Eagles after the Superbowl, and a few more. He's kind of a mean dude.

Naw dude, a license! Every state in the US has a state board of cosmetology with a semi-rigorous examination that a barber/stylist/cosmetologist must pass to be considered legit. Next time you get a haircut, look on the stylist's wall directly beside their mirror.

Ffs that "firm no" was your parents "trying to prevent you from hurting yourself." By your logic, since you had to be told no, YOU'RE the snowflake. Just go home, Roger.

I mean on the AP exam, yeah... but when I took AP classes back in 2009 (fuck I'm old...) you still had to get letter grades in the class. Which could have been a 98%.

An intensely small number of whites were abolitionists. And even smaller wanted it for moral reasons rather than economic superiority over Southern slave owners. Whereas whole governments (i.e. the Confederacy) depended on slavery, it affected every living black and their offspring, and while white union soldiers did fight for the Union, they were openly racist and vocal that they were fighting the Union, not to "abolish slavery and its effects nationwide." So that's why it's incomparable.

But OP said shitty "airline," not just shitty service. As someone who has paid more for the best seat on a Spirit flight, I assure you, the service is just as shitty had I sat in the back. Sometimes, the airline is just shitty... and cheap!

Yeah she did! And Trump rallied more conservative states with rhetoric that those people agreed with. And because those other states combined had more electoral college votes, he won. So his election says more about the type of rhetoric the people in those other states appreciate. Is that clearer? You weren't wrong!

@coolpie178 I see what you're saying, but "the economy" refers to all economies the U.S. does business with. Does knowing the U.S. economy did well this year only because of Trump's tactics at the expense of European/Asian nations, who can/will take actions in retaliation not at all sway your opinion?
