or "he has a gun" on a plane, etc.. ----- unless I'm misreading some of the story. Those situations represent speech that is nearly certain to cause immediate chaos and danger -- so it makes sense for society to punish people screwing around in any way with that kind of speech. What this kid said is absolutely vile, but it actually all seems tied to online posting from January -- not something he was shouting in someone's face now or even something he was apparently spewing generally at a current march ----- in comparison to those specifically calling for the destruction of the United States and infitada in real time. Again, I'm still not suggesting those calling for the destruction of the US should necessarily be suspended or expelled by a college and they are definitely not breaking the law with their speech, but I'm not sure why its so obvious why they are clearly immune from college judgment redarding student status, but this kid -- regardless of how disgusting his posts from 3 months prior -- should obviously be be gone or was essentially shouting "fire" in a crowded theater based on posts from a few months prior.

but I don't think there's much difference between this kid and Donald Trump, who has not been bashful about calling for violence.

want to without violating his first amendment rights. Fire in a crowded theater again. Though again, there's nothing preventing other students from getting in his face.

Biden is 4 years older.

fucking wild.

where that was the case it seems to have passed. Not like "you're going to the gulag" but everything feels more 'public' imo. Just kind of where things are and I don't anticipate them going back, but maybe there's a way whatever is next can include some more breathing room and tolerance in a world where everyone disagrees at some level.

death to America and handing out propoganda calling for infitada, I'm curious what you think about a school expelling or at least temporarily barring this kid for his words. I can understand the argument that what this kid is saying is worse (and glad the school seems to have taken disciplinary action), but I still feel like it's a relatively close call with the example from the other day. You seemed pretty firm about what sounded like any words being off limits for school action. I'm sincerely curious if you think it's a bridge too far too far to remove this kid for what are still just words and presumably not an iminent threat to anyone nor anything that will get him into legal trouble.

Doesn’t believe what he is saying.

“The cops would raid his house, eat his lemon pound cake, and steal his money.”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

given BA buffet and better than mcdd

loser management team in charge. Followed by a bunch of bean-counters and topped off by the move of their corporate HQ out of Seattle.

It's too bad. They used to be a great company.

Or else it would be national news. And look, it’s national news and it wasn’t at the rally.

That company needs a complete overhaul

The FAA needs a complete examination of their governance and maintenance. I represented them recently and one of the reasons I am semi-retired.
