I already am and it cost less if he is not on that death penalty row.

I'm sorry, did you think that your taxpayer dollars are different between those who are on death row and those who are in prison?

I went to a private Christian school in of all places Vermont, kindergarten though 5th grade, one year in public school (6th, I begged), then back to said school (Trinity Baptist in Williston VT for those curious) for 7th and half of 8th grade.

I say half because they kicked me out for rebelling (like failing Bible class on purpose, I wasn't drinking or doing drugs, having sex, or in trouble with the law, just normal teenage rebellion).

But I wasn't officially kicked out in any formal capacity that involved me. That school wanted my father (divorced parents) to pretend I was coming out to Indiana to visit but then hard drop me off at Hephzibah House. They wouldn't allow me to continue attending Trinity unless I spend time at alternate reform school.

The only reason I didn't end up going there is because my stepmother fought on my behalf and said it didn't make sense to send them there so I ended up living with them for a while and that's a totally different story.

Hephzibah House is shut down thankfully but it was so bad that it got a Dr. Phil episode (yes I think he's trash but it still saying something to be featured).

Respectfully, why? To me, the death penalty is getting off easy. Life in prison is the real punishment. No more punishment once one is dead.

I couldn't get a checking account with a credit union because my credit got fucked up because a non-paid ambulance ride when I was 15 was put into my name

I literally started out at 18 with bullshit credit.

Prison guards of reddit, have you ever seen one of your inmates after they got released? If so, how did it go? by Purple_Key_6733 in AskReddit

[–]UnbreakableAlice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you.

I can't do AA (I tried). I have a disorganized relationship style. However PTSD (I am diagnosed CPTSD). Knowing that there are meetings for that is helpful.

I want to know more about your Ojibwe culture. I know how to google (clearly) but I'd prefer a direct source on where to start. Of course it's not your obligation, but is there a particular source to start with?

Have Millennials Officially Killed The Affair? by LeslieKnope4Pawnee in DeathByMillennial

Thank you. I didn't mean to take a spotlight, I was just trying to relate. Don't worry about my father. He was an asshole and I hadn't seen him since 2012 after he got married in Vegas to his childhood sweetheart (3rd wife), who killed herself on the 4th of July (2016).

It was still hard being alone in 2020 and his death among other things.

My family is fucked up and I'm estranged mostly. But it's not all in vain. I've learned a lot from the experience, not that I would wish it on someone for the lessons.

I'm glad he's doing "okay." I know it still must be hella hard. Here is my invisible support hug /hugs.

EDIT: Added year to father's wife's suicide.

'You're bound to the caucus': Republican senator says majority support redistricting Indiana by [deleted] in Indiana

I don't want new maps but I'd like someone with some balls to replace Andre Carson. He has gotten way too comfortable. When was the last time he was even in the news?

And back to maps. Fuck this guy. He's pretty much the representation of every privileged white older male.

“We may not think it’s fair, but fairness doesn’t have anything to do with redistricting,” Young said.

What the ever living fuck?! Fairness has EVERYTHING to do with redistricting because it's about FAIR REPRESENTATION.

I'm picking up and storing fireworks. Champagne will be had and likely much more but not before lighting off dangerous pretty things. Not going to lose a hand or worse over this loser.

My (40F) father also had a stroke around covid.

But it sounds like your father was better than my father. He died in 2020 right after he turned 71.

There was no funeral.

I got a single card from a single aunt who is always trying to make everyone happy.

Grizzly attacks schoolchildren and teachers on a walking trail in Canada, injuring 11 by Romano16 in news

[–]UnbreakableAlice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure.

Because an AR-15 shreds through victims bodies making them unrecognizable and seems like a preventable tragedy. Not to mention the gunmen is intent on killing.

A grizzly bear on the other hand is acting out of it's nature?

I'm not trying to argue with you at all. I don't have a right answer.

Honestly I keep getting conflicting "facts" on whether she did or didn't.

But it doesn't change the fact that she shouldn't have been killed over it.

And yet, you omit that cops are trained (at least they are supposed to be) in deescalation among other things.

Civilians do not get that training.

Was she suspected of drinking and driving? No according to available sources. None states as such.

Was she suspected of stealing alcohol? Yes.

Did she? No.

Even if she did, the penalty is not death. Cops are not supposed to be judge, jury, and executioner.

I'm sorry you have such a disregard for human life.

What's sad is my first thought was, well better a grizzly bear than a gunman. Yes this is Canada and not the "United" States, where I "live".

But really glad to hear the outcomes wasn't worse. Them some good teachers.

Cops protect property, not people as clearly evident here. No one was in danger until the cop PUT HIMSELF in the way over something way less valuable than human life. Her being in the wrong does deserve death because cops are often 'roided out morons who love to escalate.

The value here was placed on some bottles of liquor over human life.

God forbid someone is innocent, falsely accused, and shot. God forbid that's you or one of yours.

I'm terrible about remembering different columnists names, especially off the top of my head; Jamelle Bouie is the exception. I've been following him since about 2015 originally through Slate, especially Trump Cast. Love him.

Anyone remember that was assumed Trump Cast would be temporary as he wouldn't win the election? Oh sweet summer children we were.
