Why crucify the lawyer?

In order for someone to be punished in a just society, they need to have a trial.
In order for that trial to also be just, both sides need to be able to put forth their side of what happened.
In order to make sure that there isn't a mistrial, both sides need competent lawyers, and the case needs a competent judge.

The alternative is that that police can just target people they don't like, knowing that they likely can't defence themselves, even if they are innocent.

Formatting thing: if you start a line in a new paragraph with four spaces, it assumes that you want to display the text as a code and won't line break.

This means that the last part of your comment is a long line that people need to scroll to see. If you remove one of the spaces, or you remove the empty line between it and the previous paragraph, it'll look like a normal comment

With an empty line of space:

1 space - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don't really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

2 spaces - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don't really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

3 spaces - and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don't really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

4 spaces -  and a little bit of writing just to see how the text will wrap. I don't really have anything that I want to put here, but I need to put enough here to make it long enough to wrap around. This is likely enough.

Why do you mention gearscouts so often?

Do you own the site?

Cannon fights between boats were often similar to turn-based.

They were considering selling 49%, but the percentage is meaningless without looking at the articles, the bylaws, and resolutions. A lot of corporations make things more strict than the Bus Corp. act. You can always make things more strict, you can't make them more lax.

In fact, some things require a "Special Resolution" which is 2/3rds.
BUT, that can mean 2/3 of the shareholders who show up, as long as enough people show up to make a quorum.
And a quorum can be as small as 1 person, again, depending on the Articles, bylaws, and resolutions.

If you feel like learning about the Saskatchewan Business Corporations act, here is it:

Are you sure that it's linoleum, and not VCT?

Vancouver has the right idea with "Su’it Street", no one is going to call it "šxʷməθkʷəy̓əmasəm Street".

If they are considering also having signs that call it "Musqueamview St.", that's the only way that it will ever be referenced.

Question what is considered 6th grade.

This is a statement, telling the reader to consider, or be skeptical of, what the common understanding of what 6th grade is.

Question: what is considered 6th grade?

This asking the reader what most people think 6th grade is.


So, how did you read the comment? It isn't a question; it's a statement in both sense of the word.

Someone replied to you using her legal name Marliana Smith. If you curious as to why, she brought forward a law designed to hurt transgendered children, to require parental consent for schools to call them anything but their first name. Since she doesn't even go by her first name, some people now refuse to call her by her middle name, which she prefers.

She's financed by oil companies, a hypocrite, a liar, and rallies her voters by creating imaginary enemies out of "the other",. A very prototypical far-right politician.

If you look at who is doing the work it'll give you a clue.

Most of them were international students who'd recently graduated or other newcomers working their first job in Canada.

Getting a job when your first language isn't English is hard. It's also hard when all of your references might not speak English, are half a world away, and you don't really have a "network" in Canada. You might be willing to put up with a lot of shit in order to have some work history in Canada.

You need to listen to him because it's a meeting at work, he's higher up than you are, and your job is at risk.

Fitness guru Richard Simmons has died. Publicist Tom Estey tells The Associated Press that Simmons died Friday at his home in Los Angeles on Saturday, a day after his 76th birthday.

 

Gotta break up the religious streak.

 

The lyrics of this match the naming scheme of the last title:
The _____ with the ____ _____

"I'm in love with the girl with the flower Tattoo"

 

Sometimes you can tell someone to cut the crap, other times you just need to say IDGAF and walk away.

The title contains a /

 

The title has 2 opposing ideas.
Also, Chicago is primarily a musical, and secondarily a city.

Also-also, I know rent is awful, but this song is catchy.

The last song seems to be asking the subject to let go of something and stay/talk with them. At some point Kelela, you just need to say OK GO and move on.

 

Freak out!
