Police: Ore. man strips in airport screen protest
Could you imagine if they did a mass demonstration like the sit-ins of the 60's?
p.s. Yeah, I know a "mass" demonstration would never happen but it would give you something to smile/grimace about.

Re: Some people forgot their History lessons
Today's neo-Nazi groups don't cause much trouble. But their philosophy is violent and dangerous, so yes, I want the police to keep tabs on them even though right now, they're only using words. I guess you missed Anders Breivik. 77 dead children is not quite 'just words' Or a couple of decades of ne...

Re: If this is accurate....
They are not spending $11.2k on each student in California. I said we plan to spend $11,246 per student, not $11,246 on each student. "Classroom instruction" makes up 61% of the expense. This is straight from the governor's official budget , by the way, not some partisan advocacy group. Y...

Re: If this is accurate....
I have worked in education, getting my degree so that I can teach education, and I can promise you Europe out spends us on K-12 Education and College. The 2012-13 California budget calls for $67.1 billion in spending for K-12 education, or $11,246 per student. That's about 70% of the entire state b...

Re: If this is accurate....
We need to increase Educational Spending Or, we (that is, you) need to realize that state and local governments, not the federal government, pay for virtually all of education; that we already spend more per student than almost every other country; and for that increasingly massive spending we get ...

Re: Climate-Change-Denier-Gate?
We in the US have been conserving forests for over a 150 years. There are more trees now in North American than in human history on it. Any photos of wilderness areas taken 100+ years ago compared today confirms that. :D Only a moron would believe this. Oh wait, Tudamurf showed you and you still di...

Re: Climate-Change-Denier-Gate?
"Carbon is locked up in all LIVING organisms. The destruction of forests and that huge algae bloom in the Pacific (for lack of the correct term) is also contributing to Carbon levels rising." We in the US have been conserving forests for over a 150 years. There are more trees now in North...

Re: Belief in Science: A partisan issue?
Also, even "conservatives" today who claim to distrust science will openly embrace it when it suits their needs, like dialysis machines for their inevitable diabetes or new weapons to kill Muslims. /agree They believe it when it works for them and denounce it when it doesn't. It's a meani...

Re: Why is the media portraying him as a boy?
He was 6'3" and 150 lbs. And 17 years old. This is going to be an easy case. Because.... If a crime happens against you, you are a "kid" until your 18. If you commit a crime, your an evil degenerate adult. You can thank Reagan and his cronies for the change in philosophy. Now its jus...
