| Someone's gotta tell the local realtor - stop letting the Janissaries in. Well sounds like it was a friendly peacock, so not sure someone really needed to take it into their own hands to kill it...I just don't think shooting the bird needed to be done. If it was being a nuisance it could have been r... |

| Another reason this won't happen in the US anytime soon - Biden's too busy trying to ban menthol cigarettes and flavored cigars. Entirely the opposite 'Think of the children' drug warrior mentality. |

| To paraphrase another political debate: Science doesn't kill people - scientists kill people. Again, religion doesn't kill people - religious followers kill people. Religion can be a substitute for or explanation for science. It can also be a powerful way to ignore science in favor of single minded... |

| I genuinely wish her the best on this. My guess is that it will indeed help them lower OD's. We'll have to see if they follow up on the rest of the Portugal model as well like find out what's hurting those who are addicted and helping them find what they need in terms of employment, meaningful socia... |

| So with pornography..... you have a dozen cans of cool-whip lined up and a couple busty models, overly made up and scantily clad stare at the canisters, look puzzled, and ask 'Whatever are we going to do with these?'. Facebook and Twitter posts, any given topic, are just a preamble to social climbin... |

Or really just this a whole criticism to things like religion, where faith based education teaches people to think based on blind... |

If we have to go down that line for a minute I'd second roronoa79's comment about economics and particularly forced... |
