Census Question

dimanche 7 juillet 2019 à 02:00

The bully is still hunting for an excuse to add a citizenship question to the US census.

"In the real world, the fact that the executive branch plans to offer 'a new rationale' [for the citizenship census question] is proof it has been lying. In the legal world, however, this maneuver might yet succeed."

Given the evidence of its real purpose, any other supposed purpose must be another lie.

Urgent: Iesha Harper

dimanche 7 juillet 2019 à 02:00

US citizens: call on Phoenix to fire and charge the thug that threatened to kill Iesha Harper.

I think it is morally irrelevant that Harper was female, that she was pregnant, and that she and black. Doing the same thing to me would have been equally wrong — no more, no less. It's wrong for agents of the public to threaten people that way — any people — or to threaten any kind of violence against people who are not violent.

The thugs might have treated a white man with more respect, but that's a different question.

Urgent: Surveillance

US citizens: call on Massachusetts legislators to support the moratorium on government face surveillance.

Jeremy Corbyn

Other ship captains faced, or now face, prosecution in Italy for rescuing people drowning in the Mediterranean sea.
