  1. You think gun voters were going to otherwise sit this one out?
  2. I don’t make the leap from his tweets to premeditation but they do, to me, render his version of the events to be completely worthless and they create a strong presumption that his standard for what constitutes an imminent threat is not objectively reasonable.
  3. The next movie I see that isn't significantly better in the theater will be the first. I'd go every damn day if I had the time.
  4. Jordan’s behavior is being “focused on” because he’s the one still affiliated with MTV. The last time Nia was on was over five years ago when she was being sent home early from The Challenge for hitting Jordan.
  5. So students at 4A schools in DFW, Austin, Houston, San Antonio, El Paso, etc. are going to be practicing and playing games while going to school online?
  6. It dragged a little bit in the middle but I enjoyed it
  7. Shit, I didn’t know you had an anecdote! Never mind, disregard those four large scale studies!
  8. Numerous states/counties/cities have enacted school choice programs over the last couple of decades. They have fairly consistently shown that students who participate in them see their test scores go down, especially in math. Louisiana Indiana Ohio Washington, DC
  9. He's also probably the second best Vancouver Grizzlies player ever after Shareef Abdur-Rahim
  10. They attached this drivers license to authenticate Zion's signature on the agreement. Just a few problems with it. 1. South Carolina gives vertical driver's licenses for people under 21 2. Even for a horizontal license, South Carolina stopped using this design before this date of issuance when they switched to a REAL ID compliant license. 3. It has Nikki Haley's signature but she wasn't governor on the date of issuance 4. It lists his weight as 6'06 and his height as 284 5. They forgot to bold the "E" at the end of license
  11. The “evidence” is the most laughably fraudulent shit I’ve ever seen. Every attorney involved should be disbarred and they and their clients should be jailed for fraud.
  12. I’d guess 90 Day Fiancé since it has like 17 spinoffs
  13. Now that the term is over, it's that fabulous time of year where the ScotusBlog twitter account replied to all the morons who angry tweeted at them thinking it was the Supreme Court's twitter account.
  14. Are you taking the position that a guaranteed 8% rate of return for 35 years isn't a great deal for Bonilla?
  15. If the injury was in any way the fault of your employer (or coworkers) (and as long as you've got access to health care and can cover your bills while out of work), you're better off long-term without WC because you can get better health care than the shitty WC doctors, you can get all of your lost wages rather than just 80%, and you can get pain and suffering, disfigurement, etc.
  16. Are you sure your employer even has comp? It’s not mandatory in Texas.
  17. Next week. Unless an emergency stay or something, opinions always drop at 10am ET. So far they've added July 6 to the calendar as an opinion day. They'll likely add the 7th and/or 9th to that.
  18. I certainly don't dispute that most, if not all, Blaine Amendments arose out of anti-Catholic sentiment. But one doesn't have to have a hatred or dislike of religiously affiliated organizations to think they shouldn't receive public money. That's fucking nonsense. Separation of church and state is intended to protect the independence of churches as much, if not moreso, than protecting the state from religious influence.
  19. https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2020/06/voter-suppression-novembers-looming-election-crisis/613408/
  20. The most interesting thing about that ruling was that Gorsuch joined Thomas's concurrence that the Establishment Clause doesn't apply to the states through the Fourteenth Amendment. Thomas has been taking that stance for a long time but he's never had any company.
  21. I'm not so sure that is what he was saying. I think all he's saying is "we just fucking ruled on the same law four years ago, you don't get to just get a do-over because there are a couple of new justices, and fuck you Fifth Circuit for ignoring clear precedent and putting this back on our plate right now." But if someone wants to bring a more novel argument and the question before the Court is whether Roe or Casey should be overturned rather than whether these regulations violate Whole Women's Health, he may come down a different way.
  22. Georgetown, Maryland and Alexandria, Virginia were pre-existing towns when they were subsumed by DC.
