Linkerbaan , in CNN staff say network’s pro-Israel slant amounts to ‘journalistic malpractice’

This is what we call “Manufacturing Consent”.

tygerprints , in Two men wanted to start a family. Soon, they could be outlaws.

Sometimes being outlaws is the only decent and moral thing to be. If the government of their small nitwit idiot nation considers them outlaws for being great parents, then so be it. Be the best and most IN YOUR FACE goddamned outlaws you can possible be. Italy is known for bigotry and stupidity, but baring same-sex couples from adopting children is an evil dark ages mentality that smacks of febrile mental inbred retardation.

tygerprints , in North Carolina mother sues school district for kicking her homeless kids out of class

But were her kids kicked out for being homeless or were they kicked out for being obnoxious disturbances? The title makes it seem like her kids are being kicked out of school for being homeless. And why was she evicted from her residence?

billiam0202 ,

were they kicked out for being obnoxious disturbances?

It’s nice how you immediately jump to victim-blaming with absolutely no context.

The title makes it seem like her kids are being kicked out of school for being homeless.

Because that was the point of the article.

And why was she evicted from her residence?

Wholly irrelevant question.

I’ll explain what likely happened given what was in the article:

She was kicked out of her house. Her children therefore did not live in the school district. The school administration decided to kick them out of school for not living in the district.

Are they following the letter of the law? Probably. Could they be more compassionate and flexible? Definitely.

tygerprints ,

Yeah it's great how you people take the care and time to listen and consider other people's points, you're so goddamn GOOD at listening and considering. Imagine how much I really care about what you think - and imagine that place I'm thinking of where you can stick your opinions.

billiam0202 ,

You sound like the exact kind of person who would blame homeless children for being innocently kicked out of school.

    They didn’t just lie down in the street and die like homeless vermin are supposed to do.

    Big fucking /s for any morons out there

    billiam0202 ,

    I can’t speak for everywhere in the US, but where I live you have to have a physical residence in the school district in order to attend that school. If you don’t, you may be able to attend but you have to fill out forms and the district can reject you if they don’t have space.

    SpaceNoodle ,

    They clearly already had space, so that excuse is out.

    billiam0202 ,

    To play devil’s advocate here:

    It’s hypothetically possible they didn’t. If the school is required to enroll every student in its district regardless of its capacity, the school could have been overcrowded already. Kicking out two students may still have left them overcrowded and thus given them justification to deny their admittance on residency status.

    (To be absolutely clear, I don’t think this is what happened, but it’s also not an impossible scenario either. But as the school won’t comment now that there’s pending litigation we only have the mother’s word as to what happened, and even though we have no reason to not believe what she is claiming, it should still be remembered that you can allege pretty much whatever you want when filing a civil suit.)

    The paperwork isn’t the point, I was just clarifying the process a parent would have to go through to admit their child to an out-of-district school under normal circumstances (i.e., not the one in the article).

    AbidanYre ,

    Having actually read the summary now, my point is moot since it says they were no longer in that school zone.

    Physnrd ,

    I posted this as a reply to someone else, so copying here too. It’s not they “may” be able to attend, federal law says they must be able to attend and be provided transportation.

    The McKinney-Vento Homelessness Assistance Act requires districts to allow homeless students to attend their school of origin, regardless of the family having an address in the school district.

    The point is for school to be one less difficulty for children in what is an already difficult event.

    Physnrd ,

    The McKinney-Vento Homelessness Assistance Act requires districts to allow homeless students to attend their school of origin, regardless of the family having an address in the school district.

    billiam0202 ,

    Assuming the facts are true as alleged, and barring any substantive evidence not yet known, this is probably why they’ll win their case.

    afraid_of_zombies ,

    I imagine it was because they no longer technically had a mailing address in the district. Would have been a nice thing if the school district had let it slide, at minimum until the start of summer vacation but they decided that wasn’t the priority. Better ten kids not get an education vs one poor kid get a good one is our motto apparently.

    tygerprints ,

    That's a pretty lousy reason to kick kids out of school. IF that's really what it's all about, the article didn't make that clear at all.

    If anything the school district should step in at that point and offer to help the family instead of shitting all over them when they are in such terrible circumstances.

    afraid_of_zombies ,

    If they had done that would we have heard about it? No one is going to read/click/comment on an article “school district has issued exception about residency requirements to allow students to finish the year”.

    UncleGrandPa ,

    the McKinney-Vento Act. Already covers this. They are simply choosing to ignore it

    afraid_of_zombies ,

    The law is whatever you want it to be ever since Roe v. Wade was gutted. A clump of cells has more rights than a woman. My dead body will have more legal rights than 52% of our citizens.

    nulluser ,

    You didn’t even need to click on the link. It’s right there in the last paragraph OP posted.

    With two children and nowhere to go, the suit states the disabled veteran mother switched both children to car riders while searching for steady housing. While the family remained in the same city, they were not located in the same school zone following the eviction.

    tygerprints ,

    And that answers none of the questions I posed, evasion isn't going to gloss over the issues I listed.

    TopRamenBinLaden ,

    Idk where you are from or if you are trolling, but in the US they have school districts, and kids are supposed to go to the specific school designated for the school district where they live. It’s bullshit in this case, because the kids are homeless.

    AllonzeeLV , (edited ) in Too pretty? Easter poster depicting a handsome, fresh-faced Jesus prompts criticism in Spain

    I’m an atheist, but I was raised Roman Catholic.

    These people that attempt to paint Jesus as some clean cut, light skinned fashion model is some prosperity gospel shit that intentionally glosses over the teachings of Jesus Christ as written in the New Testament.

    Jesus had disdain for those that reveled in greed and decadence. He basically told them they wouldn’t be welcome in heaven as they were. If Jesus were real, I can’t imagine he’d be pleased being portrayed as some stylish, vain douche of means.

    If Christians actually practiced the teachings of Jesus Christ of the new testament, I might not have been so quick to run away. That would involve praising selflessness, acceptance of different cultures, and giving till it it hurts, and shunning greed, gluttony, vanity, and self-interest though, so it was always a non-starter.

    The teachings of Jesus of Nazareth are just plain wholly incompatible with the modern global economy, which is human civilization’s true god.

    TheOakTree ,

    The urge for power and refusal to admit fault was the reason why I started to doubt Christianity as a whole, despite growing up Catholic.

    I can’t understand how it can be so easy for some to preach love, acceptance, and hope while simultaneously using such ideas to push hate or fear.

    pinkdrunkenelephants , (edited ) in ‘Andrew Tate is a symptom, not the problem’: why young men are turning against feminism

    All I see is a whole lot of pandering toward people who don’t like feminism because they don’t want to admit men are largely responsible for a lot of problems in the world.

    And I’m sure some of you dumbasses will prove my point by trying to argue with me about it in the comments. I’m not gonna capitulate to the same people who largely ruined life for everyone for the existence of our species just so women can get the rights they were entitled to in the first place, nor will I give you the fight that you want.

    Yes, you probably did find the feminazi they’re denigrating. I don’t care. Those feminazis are right.

    NIB , in Erdoğan: "hostility to Sharia is hostility to Islam"

    He should get Sharia law in Turkey then. But he wouldnt dare.

    Do you know which country has Sharia? Greece, or at least the muslims in Greece(only in Thrace region), because 100+ years ago when treaties were signed with Turkey/Ottoman Empire, Greece agreed to let the muslims in Greece have Sharia law for family issues.

    Because of this, the greek state assigns a Mufti(because he is a judge) while the muslim population in Greece obviously chooses their own Mufti(because he is a muslim priest). This has been a point of contention.

    In fact, muslims in Greece werent even allowed to use normal greek law until a few years ago when the leftist government voted to give them the option.
