Poor French teacher...maybe the worst way to die, having your head hacked off.
Being cooked alive in a bread oven by ISIS might be worse, not sure.

From the CDC on the hospitalization rate from COVID-19:

Quote
The overall cumulative COVID-19-associated hospitalization rate through the week ending October 10, 2020 was 188.2 per 100,000 population.

Following an initial decline in hospitalization rates between the weeks ending July 25 (MMWR week 30) and August 22 (MMWR week 34), weekly hospitalization rates for all sites combined have remained steady for all age groups. However, since the week ending September 19 (MMWR Week 38), overall weekly hospitalization rates have increased in 7 of 14 COVID-NET sites. Data for the most recent weeks may change as additional admissions occurring during those weeks are reported.

The age-adjusted hospitalization rate for Hispanic or Latino persons was approximately 4.5 times that of non-Hispanic White persons. Age-adjusted hospitalization rates for both non-Hispanic Black persons and non-Hispanic American Indian or Alaska Native persons were approximately 4.4 times those of non-Hispanic White persons.

His or Putin’s?

On his own trump has some White House stationary he’s trying to lay claim to, but it’s expected to be tied up in court for a number of years.

He may also have stolen a couple of billion over the last couple of years, but he’s too dumb and too strange to keep it.

Sorry if that disappoints you.

It probably hurts about as much as the fact that following trump around has caused some of his poverty to rub off on you and infect your own sad life.

Really dumb people do really dumb things.
No need to kill anyone for showing a picture of mohammad.
Nowhere in the koran is it said you can't have an image of the prophets.
Some strict muslims believe no prophet's image should be allowed.
The reason is idolatry... that people should only worship god, not a prophet of god.
But in killing for a prophet you are basically committing an act of idolatry.
Dumb.

For criticizing such believers and writing the first letter you put yourself in peril. They are probably on their way to your house to hack off your ear right now.  Best to go into deep hiding immediately ...

#realACB

Fuck me, the Amy argument was that raping prisoners wasn't part of the guard's job and didn't benefit his employer, so the county wasn't liable.  How about a duty to supervise their employees, a duty to protect prisoners under their care, hiring such a person in the first place.  That's a lot of culpability and negligence.  And this wasn't a one time sexual assault but an ongoing series of assaults.

But it sure will protect a lot of employers from liability or the need to put in place protective policies.


And then there's her decision making it easier to challenge university sexual assault decisions.  So males accused of sexual assault can bizarrely sue their schools for sex discrimination.

Quote
Emily Martin, the vice president for education and workplace justice at the National Women's Law Center, expressed concerns that Barrett's description of the Education Department's efforts to go after campus sexual assault was evidence of discrimination against men.

"She suggested that a school's commitment to taking sexual misconduct seriously is evidence of sex discrimination against the people who caused harm. This is deeply problematic and troubling for survivors."

(from same article)

I dunno, I guess it'll give Amy and Kavanaugh a lot to talk about ...

Quote
Former White House chief of staff, retired Marine Gen. John Kelly, has told friends that President Donald Trump "is the most flawed person" he's ever known.

"The depths of his dishonesty is just astounding to me. The dishonesty, the transactional nature of every relationship, though it's more pathetic than anything else. He is the most flawed person I have ever met in my life," the retired Marine general has told friends, CNN has learned.

The reporting comes from a new CNN special scheduled to air Sunday night, "The Insiders: A Warning from Former Trump Officials," in which former senior administration officials -- including former national security adviser John Bolton, former Health and Human Services scientist Rick Bright and former Department of Homeland Security general counsel John Mitnick -- explain why they think the President is unfit for office.

Kelly's sentiments about the President's transactional nature and dishonesty have been shared by other former members of the Trump administration who also appear in the special.
