  1. Because sometimes the Supreme Court gets it wrong
  2. You don’t need a visa to apply for asylum at a port of entry.
  3. They’re not overlooking it. They just don’t give a shit because they’re hateful monsters.
  4. It’s inhumane that their parents sought asylum through a legal process?
  5. Yes. I can’t even comprehend how it’s controversial that migration is a fundamental human right.
  6. DanRydell replied to Netzer's topic in Baseball
    Also Aledmys Diaz last year and Yasiel Puig a year or two before that IIRC.
  7. Residential burglary carries a higher penalty. I think the reasoning is that a residential burglary has a higher probability of resulting in physical harm to a person (assault, rape, murder) while commercial burglary is more typically going to be a pure property crime.
  8. Didn’t go to UT but loved going to Guy Forsyth’s Sunday night residency at Antone’s in high school.
  9. Fair point. Winning 11 out of 17 times is damn impressive regardless.
  10. So Augie would be a worse coach if the last 20 years of career were identical but occurred at Fullerton instead of Texas? That's a fairly bizarre calculus.
  11. Yeah, Dedeaux's titles are gaudy but it's pretty glaring how he only made it to Omaha once after the tournament changed to a regional format in 1975 and USC suddenly had to do more than just beat Cal State LA or Occidental or Portland in a three-game series to win District 8.
  12. It's about 35 points redder than the other two but it still went to Obama 49.1 - 48.4 over Romney and Clinton 51.5 - 41.8 over Trump.
  13. The guy pushing this isn't a major Democratic operative. He donated to both Obama and Romney but otherwise he has donated to the RNC, California Republican Party, and Feinstein's Republican opponents.
  14. The goal of the plan was to make each state roughly 13 million people so you’d have to find another 3-4m people to move from California to Southern California if you flipped San Diego.
  15. Yeah, the largest state at founding, Virginia, was only 10-12x larger than the smallest state, Delaware (10x larger in terms of white males, 12x larger by total population). California is now 67x larger than the smallest state, Wyoming, and is 10x larger than 20 states.
  16. The resolution doesn’t trump the Constitution. The resolution itself is the consent of Congress required by the Constitution.
  17. I do think there’s some wisdom to the idea that states shouldn’t exceed a certain population before being broken up. But the politics of the Senate and Electoral College make subdivision politically impossible, at least for the timebeing.
  18. Yeah, at least textually, I think the "nor" implies that it relates back to the prior clause as well. Texas already has consent to create four new states within its broders from the Joint Resolution admitting Texas in 1845, so it could subdivide at will unless and until that consent is withdrawn.
  19. It would be interesting to have a Court rule on the meaning of Article IV, Section 3 and whether, "without the consent of the legislatures of the states concerned as well as of the Congress" applies only to, "nor any state be formed by the junction of two or more states, or parts of states", or also to, "but no new states shall be formed or erected within the jurisdiction of any other state".
  20. The Other Guys is fucking great
  21. That already is the law in Texas but practically speaking, it's not hard to imagine employers being retaliating against employees for taking advantage of that law.
  22. Game 3 home team is decided by coin flip
  23. I had mis-read your post and edited #80 accordingly.
  24. Which of the nominees not already confirmed by voice vote fit that criteria?
