To quote (likely) John Swift, a lie can be halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes.

Kentucky just allowed 12 year olds to work for nonprofits 18 hours a week.

Also, they were armed with new AR-15 rifles, which not all of them had been trained to handle yet. The rookie who, by his own admission, was handling the rifle in the following car said he fell (he was standing up) and believed the weapon discharged as the car accelerated, as his hand automatically gripped tighter due to the sudden acceleration. This is further muddied by the fact that the SS probably stole parts of the remains to cover up the fact they might have accidentally killed JFK.

Haley isn’t really afraid to say the quiet part loud.

There’s a good reason nobody’s domesticated them.

He also claimed the war didn’t leave him with any bad memories, but he’s got a whole marsh where dead people pull other people into the bog to drown.

Weirdly totally not about the Somme according to Tolkien.

I believe the Sermon on the Mount essentially says “clothe the naked, feed the hungry, take care of the sick.”. No limits on time.

The Didoche was written in an era where Christian communities generally had little wealth and were constantly in danger of arrest or execution. This is NOT the case in most places now, and especially not in the US, which this meme is referencing.

Nobody who’s suggesting state assistance is suggesting that we “take care” of people forever, at least not under the current system. Indeed, the data pretty easily shows that if you give people a place to stay, solid food aid, and some cash to deal with bills and miscellania, they start being functioning members of society, and get jobs and start the detox process or whatever interventions they need, really quick, like within months. This has been trialed even in the US in places like Denver, and it works.

So what you’re really saying is “I don’t want more of my money going to helping other people.” Have fun being the richest man in the cemetery.

Don’t forget megachurch pastors.

As Behind the Bastards pointed out recently in their Kent Hovind episode, the IRS doesn’t give a shit about what illegal or immoral activity you commit, they literally just want you to pay taxes on it.

Remember the times they effectively blockaded highways with their ad hoc motorcades, and they kept getting into wrecks there too?

Their home version of Spokesman is great.

Offsides/Five Dollar Footlong Jesus just isn’t the same.

Not in all areas.

We sure do NOT have universally mandatory civics, not anymore. I graduated in 09 and my school district didn’t teach anyone anything beyond the basics of the voting system.

You forgot the parts where he drove an APC through the wrong guy’s house, and also the part about the sex slave that escaped from his house.

Nah, this has been a thing for a WHILE. My great grandma had cookbooks from the 1930s with recipes for cicadas.

So the first one MIGHT have been a suicide. The second one got sick, went to the hospital, and sadly contracted MRSA there and died of complications from that.

Rails are shiny, which means it’s still in use.

They CAN be, depending on the area. My local neighborhood doesn’t have one, and there isn’t anything like that within the area of the city I’m in. “Third places” where you can just hang out with no expectations on you to purchase things or otherwise interact with that place’s services are rapidly disappearing in the US.

Or my 6th grade math teacher.
