The intolerant left strikes again!

Oh, wait...

The GOP game plan for 2022 is BOOOOOOOO! 

White people are in danger from very scary black people.

America is dying. People are getting old and they are dying and the next generation is not taking over properly.

San Bernardino, California, used to be great. San Bernardino used to have some of the best department stores in the world. Now San Bernardino is a ghetto, the jobs are gone, and the great department stores are gone.

Lancaster, California, where I was born, it used to be great. When I was a kid all of the parents worked on the Space Shuttles, and the desert was great, like Palm Springs. Everyone had swimming pools. Beautiful women were everywhere. Now the stores are closing, and the area is turning into a ghetto. The population increased big time, but the people who moved in were all on welfare from Los Angeles. The population increased, but the businesses closed down because the new people were not hard workers like the previous generations.

Plus, many jobs have been lost to China, etc.

We need to get the next generation to rise up and to take over in good ways. The next generation needs to succeed in business and they need to create jobs, and they need to help the homeless people, and they need to do all of the things that the older generation used to do.

We need to educate the next generation, and we need to prepare them to take over as the older generation retires and dies.

And in Hollywood we need new producers, new writers, new actors, etc, and we have schools which are training them.

The businesses cannot all just close down as people retire, the next generation needs to keep the businesses open, and they need to open new businesses and they need to create jobs, etc. And the next generation needs to help the homeless, etc.

And we need to teach the children to do service to help other people, everything is not just about money. The next generation must not be selfish and spoiled, they need to be hard working and creative and generous.

And as new immigrants come to the USA, they need to work hard, and they need to help other people.

I see decline right now, the USA is in decline. The solution is to educate the next generation so that they can open new businesses, etc.

Salute,

Tony V.

Alito complains that he is being called out.

Remember when he said NOT TRUE when Obama correctly predicted the damages looming from Citizens United?

At the fucking State of the Union, no less.
Obama was wrong.

An instructive tale that shows how fucked up the wokies are.

https://www.newsweek.com/professor-suspended-not-giving-black-students-easier-final-exam-sues-ucla-1634873


Root for this professor!

Fuck that schmuck

Fuck you

Clever...

Accurate.

Tell us, why should the professor needs to accommodate students' grades on a test due to their emotional response to a political matter that is outside the university campus?

Why should the professor's livelihood be threatened because he refused to alter his grading policy, moving it outside the university's grading policy, merely because students wanted him to address their political feelings?

Why should I tell you what I dont believe?

A simple no from the prof should have been sufficient.

But he got his ass up on his shoulders and threw fuel AND lit the match.

Now?

He is just after the money...

Careful,  Kid will admonish you to take it to the education forum.

Really,  I think the only dispute here is how the prof should say no.   That seems to be the sticking point for LB.   I can't see anyone here advocating differential grade scales based on feelings about news events.   I find it weird so many students would come to believe that could be an option.   I guess they mean well, but Jesus.

A new building is being built to help the homeless people in Los Angeles, it will be 19 stories with all of the services that the people will need.

https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2021-09-28/construction-begins-on-homeless-housing-highrise-in-skid-row

It is smart to build a highrise, because you can stop the crime, when I was a valet / doorman for Suzanne Pleshette at Empire West in West Hollywood we had zero crime. You can have cameras, and door men, and security guards, and crisis intervention specialists, etc.

And Skid Row needs to be rebuilt, it needs all new landscaping, etc, it can have cobblestones and statues and outdoor plants, etc. They can hire the people from Skid Row to lay cobblestones, and to plant trees, etc. And they can pay people to wash the sidewalks, etc. Skid Row completely needs to be redone.

Salute,

Tony V.

We have a police problem.

And more guns or more guns in schools are not the solution or even a solution.

Poor guy did not realize that his lucrative side gigs came from trading on his public reputation. The school did not sink his reputation. His snarky little email did.

He seems to have developed snowflake syndrome to at least the third degree. At least he had the basic arithmetic and optimistic outlook to aim his weak slew of grievance at a defendant with real money.

It would not surprise me if after the suit the only work available to him is as some grifters sub blogger.

You don't read well. He was unjustly attacked.
He's rightly sueing.

He will walk away. If he is smart he will do it while he only bears responsibility for his on legal expenses and before he gets hit with a counter suit. How should a court understand a reputational assault on a whole university at the hand of one who values so highly the reputation of a single minor professor? It would be hard not to call such an attack via law suit malicious and intentional.

In this exchange of broadsides the University is acting on behalf of the value of the degrees already granted as well as defending principle while beyond principle the dopey professor is only playing for his naked self interest as far as it takes him.
