He was staying at a hotel out-of-state while giving evidence against Boeing.
He was found dead in his car in the hotel parking lot from a 'self-inflicted wound'.

There's really no other way to look at it logically than he was murdered by Boeing. Nothing else adds up.

Yeah, turns out moderating user generated content to guarantee it being safe for children is expensive.

It's only a little funny seeing just how many people in attendance were actually black.

I still want journalists to get definitive answers on things like, 'Who gets custody?' 'How much child support is necessary for an embryo?' 'If life begins at conception, does this mean an embryo frozen for 21 years that is implanted and born can drink alcohol from a baby bottle since they're technically 'of age'?'

There are so many STUPID repercussions from this ruling, and there's no logical explanation for it all. It's the beginning of the end of the separation of church and state.

Yeah.. almost like they're stuck in a cycle of poverty and can't save enough money for a down payment for a house either.

So 'funny'.

The most terrifying aspect is that it isn't just gay marriage at stake here - Interracial marriages, atheist marriages, inter-abled marriages.. ALL marriages are at risk if a person you've never met won't sign a piece of paper.

As someone who did, I understand the sentiment but it isn't that easy. I have so many friends and family members who are stuck there because they can't save enough resources to leave.

DWI stands for Driving While Intoxicated, not Driving While Impaired. The restriction in the law is against "intoxicating liquor, cannabis, or any drug".

A heart attack is not liquor, cannabis or a drug, therefore, it is not reasonable to charge this woman with a DWI.

We should refer to him as a convicted rapist all the time.

lmao, no.

It was specifically written after the civil war so that the South could still technically have slavery, they just have to criminalize and convict a person first. It's how we get the 'war on drugs' where even though black and white populations smoke around the same amount, black populations were criminalized FAR harsher, and sent to prison far more often. It's exactly "Rules for thee, but not for me" on a grand scale where white people would likely 'get a pass' for their first arrest. That grace was not extended to black populations, and so we're back at having slavery with extra steps.

It's a nice thought that it just happened over time by accident, but in reality it was planned like this.

Honestly, the worst part is going to a doctor who you can tell is mildly religious and they start asking questions about why you think you feel anxiety and depression.

The trauma response to lie and hide is so strong, it takes SO MUCH effort to just be honest that it was your religious upbringing... and the second you do, they act like you're personally attacking them. I've had doctors/nurses go from being warm and kind to suddenly going cold because I had the audacity to say that their religion is the cause of my trauma. You just have to keep looking for a new doctor until someone gets it.
