Soon, they will be applying conservative measures to fix this: increased police activity, crack down on drug dealers and criminals, zero tolerance for drugs. Things will improve for a while then the lefties will start whining about incarceration, police heavy-handedness, etc and the cycle will repeat.
I live 20 minutes away across the river in Jersey. Used to go to Philly all the time. Not now. It's not just Kensington - almost all of Philly is dangerous due to a woke mayor, DA, and city council. Vastly different from the days when Mayor Rizzo had the police throw MOVE terrorists off of rooftops after they killed a cop.

I would argue it's even more dangerous than Camden (where I work). At least in Camden if you stay south of the Ben, north of the USS New Jersey, and West of I-676, you're relatively safe.

'MY PRONOUNS ARE USA': Massachusetts middle school tries to make children wear rainbow clothing for Pride; students revolt, wear Red, White, and Blue

https://thepostmillennial.com/my-pro...campaign=64506

Quote:
Woke teachers were outraged during a recent meeting of the Burlington Select Board after a contentious incident at Marshall Simonds Middle School last week.

Principal Cari Perchase revealed that some students had organized an independent counter message to LGBTQ Pride festivities. The school attempted to make students wear rainbow colors to celebrate Pride, but many students revolted.

Counter-protesting students wore red, white, and blue, or black attire, including face paint. Additionally, stickers, banners, and signs were reportedly torn down and discarded in water fountains. "My pronouns are USA," the kids chanted.

Woke faculty members characterized the students' refusal to bend the knee to the rainbow mafia as "intolerence."

Triggered community members shared their reactions to the incident during the meeting, with one parent, Carl Foss, expressing his disappointment by stating, "I thought Burlington was a safer place."

Joanne Frustaci, a Burlington resident, complained to local news that it was "an unruly dispurtion" adding that it was "organized ahead of time."

"I recognize that discussions and celebrations of individual identity are complex and impacted by individual values, religions, and cultural norms, the result of which may include expressions of racism, anti-religious hate, ableism, and in this case homophobia" Superintendent Eric M. Conti wrote in a grovelling letter.

Principal Perchase acknowledged that the counter message was possibly triggered by the school's failure to recognize Memorial Day. School officials issued apologies to students on Monday, considering the lack of acknowledgment an unintended mistake.

“Respect for the observance of Memorial Day and respect for the LGBTQ community are not mutually exclusive,” she told local outlet 7 News Boston.

"I was shocked and horrified," said Nila Almstrom to NBC 10, noting that she is the parent of an LGBTQ student who goes by "he/they" pronouns.

The incident at Marshall Simonds Middle School has highlighted conservative concerns over the indoctrination of children into an extreme LGBTQ agenda.

This is why I avoid flying, I'm fat and tall and small seats with insufficient legroom are a pain. But I don't blame the airline or other passengers.

There's always the cargo hold if more space is needed

First Class or Business Class have wider seat and more room for the leg.

The day my fear of flying disappear I'm going to fly first class.

Oops, wrong thread. I wonder how much outrage at the size of rollercoaster seats? I barely fit in one of the universal rides. LOL

In Austria, they go one step further. It has been found that female candidates have more difficulties in the admission tests than male candidates. In particular, they have problems with "quantitative and formal problems", "diagrams and tables" and "basic understanding of medicine and science". What could be the reason for this? Not because the ladies are less interested in this number stuff!

The right answer was quickly found: "If a group performs significantly less well, then it is obvious that something is wrong with the procedure". And so specific tests are now prepared for femaleness, or gender is benevolently taken into account in the evaluation.

So one day the patient will have to understand if the doctor is not quite as fit as she should be when interpreting an ECG diagram.

Not everywhere is the way paved for women in examinations as charmingly as in Austria, and that is a good thing. In 2009, for the first time, a woman was nominated for the management of a German nuclear power plant. But she was unlucky in the practical final exam. On the simulator she was supposed to shut down a nuclear reactor in 30-60 minutes and bring it to a safe condition. But she did not manage to do so even after two hours. No pardon was given.

If you had a wiener when you were born and you're still wagging one, you're a man, I don't care what you wanna call yourself.
