they also benefit from eyes on them to look for signs of abuse and neglect. many kids only eat at school, or get medical care at school.

None of these things are, or should be, the mission of public education.

This is an example of one of the reasons the system is failing.

These people don’t have core values or beliefs.

Are we comparing Americans with European ancestry to Eurpoeans? What would happen then?

Yea. There are lots of factors at play here besides smoking and food.

How do you get the pants off of a fully grown, non-compliant woman without violence?

You don't. She just casually mentions that he took her pants off.

No rape kit, no rape.

That's my line in the sand. If you were not traumatized enough to immediately call the police, then you are not credible.

We don't allow people to make these kinds of claims about other crimes with no evidence after such long periods of time. Not sure why rape should be different.

If Russell Brand was a plumber, this would not be happening.

If the federal govt can stop policing the border (enforcing the law) without any judge anywhere having a problem with it, then the federal govt can stop processing visas whether they are legally bound to process them or not.

Exactly. The State Department administers all visas and controls immigration. Regardless of the law, the paperwork must be processed and the applicants must be screened, etc.

Just quit doing all that. They could end immigration today through administration. Rubio could reassign all of the employees in a certain link in the approval chain where nothing gets done.

Gash (an adult female)

How long have you been dating your gash?

People bringing their dog everywhere is ridiculous. I just assume those people are complete losers.

So was she lying then, or is she lying now?

(Answer: she was lying both times)

there is massive fraud/waste/abuse

A huge chunk of any government budget, from local, county, state or federal is wasted or outright stolen through fraud.

It's by design. I'm all for a strong military but they could probably be just as effective with a 50 percent budget reduction if they cut out all the fraud, waste, theft and inefficiencies.

There are billions of dollars in unneeded military spending each year that can't be canceled because it takes place in the districts of power politicians.

The idea that countries like India and Mexico celebrate losing their best and brightest to other countries will never make sense.

These countries will complain about other countries making it harder for their own citizens to defect.

How about making a country that your own people want to live in?
