Re: Israel-Palestine Drama Thread

At some point occupying a public space crosses the legal line too. I'm all for protests, but there are legal and illegal ways to do it. Want a rally? Get a permit. Want to set up in some public space and make it inaccessible to others? Probably illegal. If you don't leave after repeated asks to lea...

Re: Team Trump v/s Everyone

We'll see. This is going to be a super tight election and neither leading candidate is in good shape right now. And really, it just comes down to the 5 or 6 purple states. Easy to see how either side can win this fall. Trump’s numbers have peaked. He’s hardly campaigning other than tweets. There’s ...

Let's be honest, from an objective point of view this actually worked. State officials in the border states, upset that the Biden administration was ignoring, if not just outright refuting, that there was a border crisis, took it upon themselves to make the issue more widely known.

My point exactly. And in the broader picture, end tables that fall apart aren’t as cost efficient as ones that hold up for decades.
