Was he there to ask if they had a 9yr old girl he could marry, or a younger child he could just fondle?

He would have been following the law set down by his predecessor.

An old friend of mine used to work for Ouachita Parish SO, he once told me about a call he worked many years ago around West Monroe that echoes this.

Mother called about her young son (a young, black male about the same age as the boys in the story) being beaten up by other young, black males. When questioned, the boy said they beat him up because he was "acting white" by doing homework, saying "yes ma'am" and "no ma'am" to the teachers, etc.

As time continues to roll on, I hear more and more stories like these.

Not today for me. We're probably going to be bumpy until Iran has expended its weapons (ie: the news stories about Iranian missiles and drones drop and people are able to start flying in/out of ME airports again).

Growing up we had both. Dish rags for drying dishes (when we didn't use the dishwasher), paper towels for spills and such. Dish towels were tossed in the laundry after a week unless they got dirty or started hinting at mildew.

For wiping counters down, soapy but wrung out dish rag, followed by damp paper towel to wipe up the soapy water, then another paper towel to dry.

In my kitchen we do pretty much the same thing, except for counter cleaning we've moved to the Clorox wipes.

Spain has seen a large increase in the Muslim population over the years, especially with the influx of illegals from places like Morocco, Pakistan, and Senegal. Sanchez is a die-hard socialist pushing the usual progressive tropes of climate alarmism, social justice and blanket amnesty'ing illegals.

The problem, like in Canada, is when the government controls both the healthcare resources AND assists the miserable in suicide. When healthcare can take months to obtain, but government assisted suicide is immediate. That is not a good way for society to work.

I can absolutely agree with that. Creating the problem of poor healthcare then helping your citizens off themselves because of your shortcomings is a ridiculous system.

The issue of the guy in the video, I see that as more about housing as the reason he's facing poverty as the place he has been living was sold. That said, maybe the Canadian government could consider alternatives first (like helping him find an affordable place) as some sort of middle ground?

Are you truly that unempathetic or are you just that fricking stupid? What quality of life is there? What's the purpose for keeping someone in a state like that going? So you can stroke your own hubris a bit more? Because you're too much of a pussy to make the tough call?

Go frick yourself.

I hate that he's in continual and incurable pain, it's a terrible tragedy and compounded by the fact that he's about to lose his housing. But... it's his life. I don't see the purpose in demanding he be forced to live the rest of his life in what is likely to be increasing pain and infirmity just so you can feel some sort of smug moral superiority.

They want to think they are being compassionate, it's a core of their self-identity. When confronted with the reality of what they are pushing, they react violently because it not only clashes with how they wish reality to be, but it holds up a mirror for them to see how horrible a person they are for pushing it.

Sort of. The "ownership" is for that image at that location on the web. That's it.

This is the "Forever Rose" and in 2018 it sold for $1M

And here's "Ocean Front", which sold for $6M last year.

I can copy, save and then upload these to Photobucket and use them whenever I want because NFT ownership does not take something out of the public domain and give the NFT-holder rights to all copies of that image, just that copy of the image at a specific location on the web.
