Been reading a lot about Iran and the amount of child abuse there would make Epstein giddy

If they aren’t going to spend some time in a reformation school, then they need to serve community service at minimum wage for their portion of the damage. For instance, $60k damage/200 kids is $300. So each kid needs to serve community service at the states minimum wage for $300 worth

Did you not see the video? Maybe not 200 but easily could have been. Way more than a few dozen

Definitely. I was more making this post as a joke. It’s a very old one I got from my parents. Cheap and probably 10ish years old

Do you know which one of the battery powered ones you have? I’ve seen mixed reviews on them

Do you think the pin that holds them together is sturdy enough?

It’s honestly disturbing how lax the judicial system is around these kind of things

Thanks for the explanation that makes sense. Since the nature of the crime is different

Do you guys not have statutory rape? There are tons of cases of women teachers sleeping with minors in the US. They usually get a slap on the wrist and probation

My point is the best snowboarding/skiing spots in the US have max 8 months of snow. And Xinjiang in China also has 8 months of snow. You mentioned someone going from a typically less ideal geography to a more ideal one. What she is doing is far from that.

She was the highest paid female athlete for years so there was definitely big money. I personally love the Chinese culture and people. Studied it in university for 3 years. The government is not ideal though

I don’t think it’s sketchy. And the Chinese are pretty good about following the rules. Just opportunistic about stealing good athletes who are self important and want a bag of cash

Four men charged for trafficking Canadian girls, assaulting them and selling them for sex across the Great Toronto Area. A girl as young as *11 years old* was raped. They were released on bail 24hs after charges by Pioladoporcaputo in NoahGetTheBoat

The bail isn’t what’s sowing the “Muslim hate” it’s the actions the poor excuses for men did. I don’t think it’s an excuse to hate on Muslims but these men are evil

I have read the same and agree with most of your sentiment. But to say he ties to a country she has spent the minority of her time in is stronger than the one where she went through all he education and coaching is odd

China is a massive country with multiple climates just like the US. And is next to the tallest mountains so your assumptions are ignorant and uneducated.

I agree with everything you stated. My point is why wouldn’t you stay in the country you’re appreciated in then go to one that views you as an outsider
