Well, you just met one on the internet, and I know many more like me. I hate any impediment to free speech from either side.

I wish we’d cut support for all of them, but none of those countries are the economic threat that China is.

I dislike China for running concentration camps for Muslims, organ harvesting, social scores, no free speech, and having made Xi a dictator for life. I’m pretty sure Americans have a lot of other reasons like job losses, real estate money l

We haven’t fought any drug wars in Venezuela, and they have routine gas theft, including tanker truck hijackings. It sounds more like economic causes than “the US did it!”

This is a pretty rude response to someone who doesn’t even work for cloudflare.

I’d say that Verizon’s lack of cooperation was devoid of any respect or professionalism.

It’s not just their enemies. We would have been happy to continue being a customer of Google if they hadn’t massively jacked up prices with little notice when they recognized their monopoly advantage in maps. So now we’re happy to be on boa

Not the person you’re replying to, (and not a troll) but I just looked at my orders and I was at almost a 50% return/exchange rate for damaged/counterfeit/not-as-described items in the last year before I completely stopped or

It appears that it isn’t working, since crime has risen quite a bit in London for the past few years.

Curious what you find unhinged about my comment. “Jarvis was a lobbyist for the Los Angeles Apartment Owners Association—a group that stood to benefit hugely from decreased property taxes.” https://la.curbed.com/2016/10

Shelters in LA have waiting lists, and Section 8 housing has 37,000 families on waiting lists. Sounds like it’s not a “lifestyle choice” for a lot of people.

Prop 13 was actually intended to make Howard Jarvis and his friends at the Apartment Owners Association even wealthier. He did a great job of selling a tax scam to the public. A property tax law designed to benefit low income families would

For people who need money in something besides a bank, but don’t want the hassle of being a landlord. So not really profit, but something they feel will appreciate in value.

Why are accessible websites higher quality? If someone spends a good portion of their time making their site more usable for non-blind users, wouldn’t it be more likely that the less accessible site would be higher quality?

Yet there are still scammy lawyers who file ADA lawsuits against small businesses. Here’s a great example of what I consider a typical ADA lawyer: http://www.abajournal.com/news/article/prenda_law_attorney_w...

It’s the government’s fault that the data isn’t easily accessed by citizens. No employee time would be necessary if data was accessible by everyone without having to go through a worker. I know this firsthand because there are places in the

Just because you own property doesn’t mean you get to do whatever you want with it. The Ritz knew there would be conditions, and they chose to agree. They could have sold the property and built a hotel elsewhere if they didn’t like the cond

The surprise is that hospitals are allowed to act this way. Patient privacy is one thing, but this is attempting to suppress information to the public about deadly infections.

But China had started to take more control over Hong Kong well before any protectionist trends. Maybe they took the West’s blasé attitude as a signal that they could get away with anything, including concentration camps.

I’m not sure I’d call China running over people with tanks and imprisoning millions of Muslims in concentration camps “improvements”.

Why is that an absurd statement? If you can’t say something bad about a religion or religious group, you don’t have free speech. And there are multiple countries in Europe that have laws against criticizing certain groups.

The author really glossed over the reasons for the communications ban imposed on the terrorist prisoner - multiple people he spoke with ended up committing terrorist acts. Seems like a good enough reason to completely cut him off. In additi

EU may end up dealing with it, they need complaints first. You’d be amazed how few people fill out complaints with the government. I just filed a complaint about this with the US department of justice antitrust division, feel free to do so

“Red flag” actual has a legal meaning in California. Several places have restrictions that come into effect on Red Flag fire days, including no parking areas where vehicles can be preemptively towed because they may impede the fire trucks.

That’s a good way to give the antitrust investigators even more evidence of wrongdoing. And I’m sure the ad companies will be more than happy to flood the DOJ and FTC with complaints.

American health care is in sad shape, but personally I only know of two Quest patients who were sent to collections, and both were due to incompetent communication between Quest and the insurer.
