A woman was hit and killed by a driver at the intersection of Colesville and Crestmoor Dr, in Montgomery County This is what that intersection looks like Police haven't released details, but everything about this road and intersection is unsafe. Every single thing. Unacceptable that this continues

Do people post photographs of what they like about other places mindlessly, and think what they see can be simply transferred to their own neighborhood or do they see both places in the context of what used to be, what happened to get them to their current state, and what needs to happen next?

You don't have to become the Netherlands in order to enable more people to leave the car at home. Multi-use paths with some basic separation from roadways is enough to get people rolling. It's something that most cities and suburbs can do now with minimal investment and space.

Strip malls are a scam where towns and residents foot the bill providing services that they don't get back in tax revenue. Such a good scam that the victims don't even know they've been scammed and just keep asking for more.

Fox News says “There's a weird kind of smugness... in the way that some of these liberal white women interact with authority” Wow, talk about smug. Which is why I love how this woman relentlessly mocks this guy. (And I know he is not an authority, but RAV is favored by Trump.)

This is actually a good example of why the customer model is wrong. I wouldn't have chosen poetry writing, but UNC made me take a class. And it absolutely made me become a much better writer, with an eye to concision and an ear now trained to the rhythm of words. I'm a better historian as a result.

So, after watching the Brad Lander / ICE video... again we have a very very clear instance of ice doing something completely unlawful on camera. Obviously this is outside qualified immunity because they have no good faith reason to believe that what they're doing is legal.

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.
