The former standard was that the person claiming malicious prosecution must have been acquitted.

The new standard is that they must only not have been convicted - a dropping of the charges by the prosecution is sufficient,

The vote was 6-3, with Gorsuch, Alito, and Thomas as the dissent.

Bambu, Nevada has legal brothels, and in Battle Mountain the brothel was named the Calico Club. The rich people from around the world come to the brothels in Nevada.

In Battle Mountain they can make your dreams come true for money, pay them and they will give you everything your heart desires. You can have a room with a jacuzzi with champagne and strawberries and with lobster and scallops and with whatever you want, and with buffalo steaks, and with whatever you want.

Salute,

Tony V.

There are such places in bambuland, everywhere, not all with the food, most likeky.
Legal in Nevada, whatever people want to do.
The problems I would have with it all, even if I were single and rich would be:
. Germs.
 .Disease
. Where have the hookers been? what have they been doing, and with whom?
. Pregnancy. No contraceptive is 100% safe.
. Abuse of women. Most girls in the sex trade have to get on drugs to put up with themselves, and put up the the occupation/customers...from what I've seen on tv and read.
. Stranger danger. Bad things have happened to male customers of the sex trade.

Black Lives Matter demands transparency! Except for themselves, of course.

Pay no attention to that $6million house we bought...

Can't tell from this if it's just bad optics or there really is a false intent there.  If you buy an institutional space, it's good to clarify the plans with donors.  With most movements I tend to see several groups - one is those who march in the streets and just want to see good ideas out out there in the public square, another is visionary types who don't know much about how money works or how to do paperwork but radiate energy, and another unfortunately are those seeking self-servimg goals and prone to corruption.  This case may be a fumble and not corrupt, hard to say.  I would have advised fixing up an old warehouse with volunteers like me (I can do carpenteering and sheetrock) for a nice grassroots place to come together.  At a third that price.

So after decades of family centered-entertainment, theme parks, movies, etc  billions of princess costumes to adorn cisgendered female heroines Disney now decides  it must take a stand against the Florida Parental Rights in Education Bill?

After raking in $trillions from Moms and Dads the Disney suits wearing mouse ears now tell parents to go fuck themselves?

I think this will not end happily ever after.

Any parents who feel Disney told them to go fuck themselves are going to rot in hell. For that kind of inbred ingrate things will only get worse.

Get yourself under control.

Stop trying to blame your problems on some imaginary mouse.

What happens when federal and state govts sell off natural resources like coal, oil, gas etc?
Answer: they lose control of them, and lose control over the pricing of them.
Wholesale price of electricity to electricity retailers rose 150% or some ridiculous amount like that...in NSW state bambuland last friday.
"Price of coal has increased, worldwide shortage, war in Ukraine, etc"...or some such tripe.
We were informed on the 6 o'clock tv news tonite.
*
Exactly why federal govts should own and control all mining, and energy in countries.
