Oakland Police Will Meet With Potential Offenders in a ‘Holistic’ Approach to Reducing ‘Gun Violence’
https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/oakland-police-will-meet-with-potential-offenders-in-a-holistic-approach-to-reducing-gun-violence/
So potential offenders will be "called in" to talk to the cops?

Unless they're on parole and coming in when called is a condition of their parole, I only see people coming in when the police call if they've been stuffed into the back of a patrol car wearing cuffs. And then they'll be repeating the mantra "LAWYER! LAWYER! LAWYER!."
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

I remember when the trends kids followed were wearing Converse All Stars, or flannel shirts, or putting their ball caps on backwards.

Am I over-reacting or is this one step too far? The White House has released a chart on how to change the gender of children. CHILDREN.

The whole "assigned male/female at birth" crap is nucking futz.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

With all this type of BS, would it really be all that bad if Putin were to send a couple of nuclear "presents" our way?

I'm sure we'd find a way to blame it on white supremacy, and denial of trans rights.

I just hope at some point she fully realizes what she has done to the kid.

Ralph Seymour.

Seymour didn't have... a very good grasp of how to prepare signals for clarity of intent -- not just flag signals, either, but also wireless and searchlight signals.

What happened at Jutland was a different matter, however. The signals were standard course change signals, which had a very definitive format with no "wiggle room" for interpretation, but were delivered by flag when conditions dictated they should have been delivered by either wireless or by searchlight.

Yeah, I'm going to need to see some more evidence than a Daily Mail article about someone's Facebook post before I swallow that schools are medicating minors without parental/guardian consent.

There's more to that story, even in Connecticut.

Yeah, but I doubt it.  They want to be able to give abortions to children without notifying the parents too, remember?

First we had this silliness

 Racist AF: Blue-check doc DRAGGED for calling white women ‘birthing people’ and minority women ‘mothers’ in thread babbling about birth equity

Now the dept has issued an apology

Quote
    "We apologize for inadvertently gendering Black and Puerto Rican birthing people"

    New York City's Department of Health apologizes for its chief medical officer @NYCHealthCMO using "mothers" to refer to black & Puerto Rican women who give birth in the city.https://t.co/uv2DeBzah7

Western civilization is circling the drain.  I'm sure the screaming beards are happy about that.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.
