They used that part of the 13th that said “Well, except prisoners, those can be slaves.” Local law enforcement rounded up former slaves on trumped up charges and leased them back to the same plantation owners they were freed from. Only now if they escaped they were “escaped criminals” and they could count on even northern law enforcement returning them. The US is still a pro-slavery country and will be as long as that part of the 13th amendment stands.

His supporters will do it for him regardless, mark my words. We’re going to see instances of people being shot for being Democrats after the election regardless of who wins.

It’s called sociopathy mixed with dementia.

The US still used slavery as a source of labor up until about the mid 20th century. Southern states would do “prisoner leasing”, where prisoners were basically given to farmers and plantation owners to do labor for free. It started right after the end of the Civil War. Many black boys and men were arrested on trumped up charges and “leased” back to the same plantation owners they were freed from.

he was charged with battery because police said Scott resisted arrest, including kicking and head-butting an officer

Granny has some spunk left in her!

The right side looks almost like a shotgun shack.

The problem is that businesses see it as a way to drive customers into their stores where they can then demand they either buy something or leave. This is end stage capitalism bullshit where they’re trying to wring blood from a stone.

Then there’s the whole corporate aspect. How can you expect corporate businesses to drive people to be in their stores if you let them loiter around outside on government provided benches? If the only place to sit is in a Starbucks and they require you to buy something to stay in the store, well…

Yet the vast majority of modern rednecks support anti-union and anti-worker candidates because at least they aren’t Democrats.

Guess who has the money to fund shit tons of anti-union rhetoric? Guess who also owns almost all the media? Guess who also owns all the companies that produce school books?

I could go on, but I think you probably see my point. If you do, congratulate yourself, you’re smarter than the average blue collar American worker.

Gravity and Inertia are harsh mistresses.

Was that an autocorrection or are we calling him Elmo now? Because I’m down to start calling him that either way.

most of it is from not using hearing protection at concerts and other activities where I should have been using it.

You mean like firing a pistol in an elevator?

Having made this sort of move several times in my youth with my parents, and a couple times as an adult, stick to the interstate as the others have said. Don’t worry about the mountains unless you’re doing it in winter, the moving van will be able to handle it if it has been properly maintained. 99% of the gas stations next to the interstate will be able to accommodate your situation, as well. If you can, break it into 3 days of driving 6 hours or so. Figure each stop will be about 30 minutes long with any food stops being up to an hour.

Phoenix, too.

Thought maybe this tracked with states that did not expand Medicaid yet, at least in the Southeast, but nope. Arkansas and Louisiana both expanded Medicaid. Heck, Wisconsin hasn’t and it’s mostly green.
