US citizens: call on the FCC to reject the Comcast-TWC merger.

The public school reality that white Americans won't see: cuts in spending, especially on schools in poor neighborhoods, track the children (mostly minority groups) into bad lives (or prison).

The various "education reform" programs that the US has seen since 2000 in effect pretend to compensate for these cuts with burdensome handwaving. The result is that poor American children have been forced into what we might call "reform school".

The UN human rights chief says the Security Council's ineffectiveness on Syria caused hundreds of thousands of deaths.

However, there is was no proper action the Security Council could have taken in regard to Syria, even if it had not been paralyzed between the US and Russia.

The US and UK are now being drawn by necessity into allying with Assad in Syria against ISIS.

The only chance for supporting opposition to Assad with good results was when the opposition was not jihadi. I think Saudi Arabia and Qatar are to blame for the jihadists in Syria.

India has censored a film about the assassination of Indira Gandhi because of the political slant of certain scenes.

A censorship board that does its job "honestly" is a bigger threat to human rights than one that can be bribed not to censor.

The school-to-prison pipeline at work: a student in South Carolina was suspended from school, then arrested, for writing a story about shooting a pet dinosaur.

The thugs say he was arrested for his reaction when the thugs threatened him. Of course, being threatened by armed thugs who can put you in prison by lying about you is enough to rattle most anyone. It takes training and experience to avoid giving them something they can twist into an excuse to put you in the wrong.
