I think he would have let the guy go though. I mean, how would you explain that?
"I got a kid here, had a bag of drugs on him."
"Where are the drugs?"
"...I let him flush them down the toilet."

Last time I checked, America was a country. The United States of America. If we aren't a country what the hell are we?

1.21 would seem most practical. Unless you're Rupenzel

Look, if half of Americans were carrying guns, would thugs and violent gun men really want to try and cause problems if there is a 50/50 chance that a civilian could take them down easy?

Why is white guilt a thing? My ancestors were farmers from Romania and didn't have slaves. In fact, they were tossed into concentration camps during WW2, but I don't expect Germans to get on their hands and knees and beg me for my forgiveness. We don't know people's personal history and we can't but the burden that was slavery on every white person's shoulders. We shouldn't be ashamed of our race, no matter who we are. When people say that whites should feel bad because all white people were responsible for slavery that's racist as well as stereotyping.

I never said they were evil or stupid so don't put words in my mouth.
Look, our opinions are drastically different. One side believes in a god like force and the other in science. There really is no middle ground. I for one am not willing to give up my ideas because someone on the internet told me to. But that doesn't mean I shouldn't treat others who don't believe in I do with respect. Maybe our opinions about the world don't coincide, but as long as we respect each other that shouldn't matter.

It's not that simple. Gender identity goes beyond genes.

Some people don't have the time or money to drag people to court. Think about that before judging.

How can you ask someone to be flax about what they believe in? That's the point of freedom of religion and free speech. If you want middle ground between science and religion there's always Scientology. And no one wants that.
If we learned to "let go of things" instead of having strong opinions, slavery and segregation would still exist in the US. As Alexander Hamilton said "He who stands for nothing will fall for anything."

The roots would need to have some way to grow. A flood of that scale would have drowned the roots or just completely killed it because it had no way to receive energy from the sun.
Look, we aren't trying to be all condescending and pretend we know everything, so I don't appreciate the sarcasm. It's like me saying all religious people are condescending douchebags who are all homophobes. While it does apply to some, it doesn't apply to all. We believe in science so that is what we will present you with. You believe in a creator and that is what you will present us with. No matter what we will clash heads. Why can't we just respect each other as people and not what we believe in?

As an atheist I agree and disagree. We should all be represented and I in no way think that all religious people are evil or "jerks" and there are bad representations who just have a loud obnoxious voice. However, if you don't like the atheist posts you should just scroll past it. If I see posts about god I just move on past, not bothering to challenge it because it is what someone else believes in and I respect that.

And also space on the box

Some of the bills were obviously photoshopped.

I'm 16 and I've never had a boyfriend. Some how I've managed to survive.
