‘Kamala didn’t rebuke genocide strongly enough, so I’ll support the candidate that unabashedly supports and encourages genocide!’

That is my understanding of your view based on the last two comments. Good luck with stopping the murder spree that way

Edit: I’m all for better options. It’s just quite disingenuous to say you won’t vote for the only candidate that’s rebuffed Israel over the genocide when the competition is actively supporting it.

I’m curious, what do you think of Trumps approach to Israel’s genocide? Is their plan better?

It’d also be nice if they couldn’t just override the primary election results because it’s not a “real election”

Yes, I’m still a bit bitter about how the DNC treated Bernie in the 2016 election

Owner occupancy won’t go up. Landlords are already occupying a place.

As far as passing the cost goes, it won’t be. Rent is already as high as it can be and will continue to go up as long as our regulations allow this artificial shortage to be maintained. See The End Hedge Fund Control of American Homes Act as an example.

As far as the damage goes, it’s pretty much counted on by landlords. Anything they do on the property counts as a tax deduction and the repairs are usually half asses at best. See “landlord special”.

And, in particular, the poorer renters have a massive incentive to take care of the place, as any unpaid damage gets them kicked off of housing assistance.

Furthermore, the law doesn’t blindly allow any and all pets for any reason. AB 2216 will require landlords to have reasonable reason(s) for not allowing a pet in a rental unit and only allows landlords to ask about pet ownership after a tenant’s application has been approved.

I think this is a good change overall. Landlords shouldn’t be allowed to tell their tenants how to live their lives.

How would it reduce housing? By having landlords sell so they don’t have to have a pet in their rental unit?

You’re getting played if you don’t use one. All those rewards are not from the people racking up credit card debt, it’s from swipe fees.

If you don’t use a credit card you pay the same price as the ones paying with a card, except the ones with a card get rewards. The ones without pay extra since stores charge extra to cover the fee

They even lobbied successfully to prevent merchants from passing this on to credit card customers. Which means they pass it on to all customers instead.

The fees are currently capped at 2.5% but that’s just for the swiped. There are other fees as well that end up costing the merchant more.

I am pointing out that dealing with animals falls under animal control. Not police officers. The exception being an in progress attack and even then a gun probably isn’t the best choice considering the animal would be next to/on the person it’s attacking.

The article points out that the reason is unclear. Based on what we know about how police offers act, how police departments respond, what punishments they face, and how they update their procedures/trainings, it draws a clear conclusion.

The reasons for the high number of pet killings by law enforcement are not clear. Some factors include mistaken identity, warrantless searches, lack of training, and legal protections for police officers when using force, including against animals[1].

How many dogs are roaming around biting everything that moves? That’s about the only time they should be publicly executed.

Obviously animals can be dangerous and all that but there is a clear lack of oversight on police officers actions and an almost non existent repercussion for wrong doings.

Dogs with regular violence issues are dealt with by animal control and a vet. They aren’t taken care of by a police officer emptying their gun into the animal in someone’s yard/home.

They call that a win/win. Worst case you continue to do business with them and buy what you intended. Best case you do even more business with them!

Not really. It sounds like the report was made to copa, not the police, and “Copa announced that officials had not identified any asylum seekers claiming to be victims of sexual misconduct by police officers.”

Add that to the officers not being identified and we have a cover up.

“I have also been told that there is fear — fear that disability is contaminating, infecting the lives of the non-disabled community with sight, sound, and behaviour that might disturb and interfere with non-disabled lives,” Dr Galbally said.

“For example, I have been told that there is fear that having disabled students in mainstream classrooms will be detrimental to the education of non-disabled students … yet, research presented to the commission shows this fear does not have any legitimate basis.”

The issue is that the process doesn’t put the water immediately back to where it was pulled from. That water is lost until the water cycle brings it back to the area

Pull enough water water out of an environment before it can be replenished and the ecosystem will drastically change

And that is the problem with the 2 party system. No one votes that way because not enough people do. Instead everyone voted for less bad option between the 2 major parties. Which happen to be the choices the political committee chose, not the people.

The problem is that this isn’t the will of the people. Preliminaries don’t count as an election so your vote for which candidate that appears on the actual ballot is just a suggestion.

The party committees gets final say on who’s on the ballot for that party to vote for.

Which leads to the problem of the 2 party system where we vote for the least worst candidate

Not just built in to windows but forced on you in windows.

It really should be 3.0 speeds but its not any slower than the lightning cable so it’s pretty much the same. Just a universal charging port instead of an iPhone specific one.

“ the company will limit the transfer speeds on the base model iPhones to just 480Mb/s, the same as Lightning and USB 2.0.”

In a way it has. The fleet of robotaxis blocked traffic due to their low cell service and now the company responsible is washing their hands clean by saying it’s not our problem, it’s the lack of cell service!

So, if at any point, they get less than optimal signal then they’ll put the grid in a deadlock?

Sounds even worse than people protesting to earn a living and get equal treatment

Part of the reason is what the consequences are.

Being perceived as gay in public? You get beat. Want to marry your partner? Too bad. Want to be able to advocate for your partner when they’re in the hospital? You’re now trespassing cause your not family. Happen to be watching nieces/nephews? Congrats , you’re now a pedo. The list of atrocities goes on.

This has gotten better over the years due to the protests and pride events

Chronic illnesses are generally met with sympathy. I’ve yet to hear of anyone being beat for their illness except for certain cases of tuberculosis and aids.

Not to say this group should be ignored. It just gets lost relative to everything else. Everyone deserves healthcare and it ends up being drowned out by that I think.

Huh, I see that now. Pretty funny either way

I don’t think so. There’s only one strap and it’s in the center
