I am troubled by Trump, but I am even more troubled by the people who claim to be Christians that defend him… @Franklin_Graham @seanfeucht @robertjeffress @charliekirk11 Trump is vulgar and mean. He has made a vocation out of the seven deadly sins, and a mockery of the

Point 3: this week a child had their score cancelled for reasons no more specific than “violating security protocols.” Them when the child submitted a dispute, they were given 10 days to “submit documentation in support of your case” but how does one rebut a non-accusation??

Point 2: AP courses teach the test, which i thought was the antithesis of excellent. Say what you want about the rigor of APCalc, but the arguments always end up with “because that’s the notation the grader wants to see.”

So if my kid took a fashion class through their school’s art department…that would a plus on their transcript? School: oh, no. We would need to see that they were /challenging/ themselves.

Point 1: when my oldest was in high school, they toured a college that prided itself on the range of opportunities their students could access. School: your tour guide is a complain major who is also taking a class in costume design from the theatre department Me: so if my

We damage the dignity of others when we refuse to wait for them – whether they need to tie their own shoes or they are struggling to find words for the indescribable. We bestow honor on another when we consider him or her worth waiting for.

The sickest thing about today's shooting is that Republicans have the stratospheric gall to pretend they give a damn about the young people and teachers who were killed today and the hundreds who will be irreparably traumatized. We cannot let them have power again.

Charge. The. Fucking. Parents. Then unseat every lawmaker who made it easy for this child to kill four people at school with a weapon of war.

Despite Donald Trump’s asinine garbage, there is zero chance a child goes to school and returns another gender. Thanks to the GOP though, there is a chance that a child goes to a school and returns a corpse. Reject Trump. Reject Republicans. Protect our kids.

A 14-year-old whose behavior showed repeated cries for help should not be tried as an adult. The adults who kept guns in the house where the troubled 14-year-old could get them should absolutely be tried as adults.
Georgia officials want us to know that the 14-year-old boy who shot and killed two teachers and two students will be tried for murder as an adult, as if that will make us feel better. What about the actual adults who armed him?

Last year a bill offering up to $300 tax credit for purchase of gun safe storage equipment passed overwhelmingly out of the House, through Senate Finance, and was on the Senate Rules calendar. The state Senate, headed by LG Burt Jones, refused to bring it to a vote, and it died.
