Ah, more of that "State dictating school curriculum" that Conservatives love so much. So much for "local control."

Personally, though, I have no problem with teaching Communism (along with other major ideologies) in schools. The focus on Mao, Stalin, and Castro, however, seems to unnecessarily narrow the treatment of the subject. How can you skip over Marx and Lenin and still claim to teach Communism?

It's not a 'Communism in theory and practice' type course like you might have in college, it's specifically to communicate Communism's horrors. Remember it's in support of "Victims of Communism Day" or some such.

Trump people are sooo stupid

I thought it was liberals that were all complete morons?

I'm pretty sure a couple of people here have said that. Occasionally, right after complaining about being mischaracterized as dunderheads themselves.

Bigger worry is a civil suit I would imagine.

I'd think Tyson could bankrupt the idiot if he came after him with a civil suit, and even countersue him.

I suspect Mike Tyson may feel a little jaundiced with the courts, so he might not want to risk it.

Could be. He's a fighter and an world class alpha male, who has still has millions of f*ck you money.

One thing that was really great - they had a drone up above the race so you could watch this horse come up through the pack in the last stretch. He was back at least 2/3 of the way and just turned it on. Very exciting race.

Absolutely incredible

That's remarkable footage!

He's going to go to work tomorrow, and they're going out of town for a few days on Friday. We have to babysit the cat...

That guy in the middle has the complete opposite of a Trump tie.

Probably not a real Nazi.

@Jolly

It's a mess alright. I understand the Portuguese model for decriminalizing narcotics and treating drug use as a medical problem has been very successful in reducing crime and drug utilization (relying on probably 20 year old information).

It seems that the thresholds for "small amounts" should be obviously personal use only, and still confiscatable with the user brought into a rehab process under due process, and any sales or exchange of any illegal drug should incur draconian penalties. But I don't know how the law is written or the social process is implemented.

The odd thing is that, like me, you’re old enough to remember the big wave of these in the late 70s and 80s

Sounds like the integrity of the puzzle was at stake. Thanks for straightening that out, Ax.

You are welcome.
