WEB Notes: Children are not to be called “boys and girls”, but “scholars”. Why? Well, we would not want to offend someone now would we? I mean that poor child’s duck feelings might get hurt. We have to be sensitive to each individual child to create an inclusive environment. Inclusive environment my foot, they are promoting filth and teaching our children and adults(who should know better) that it is okay and should be accepted and embraced. How about teach the child right? They go to school to learn about math and reading, let the children be children already and stop peddling your filth.

Before I begin, I want to mention that my only experience with Idaho (unfortunately), was driving through the southeastern part of the state during my six-week cross country road trip in 2010. It was some of the most majestic and peaceful scenery I had ever seen, and I’d love to return and explore more of the state in the future. I’ve also heard Boise is a pretty cool city. It’s unfortunate that a state with so much potential passed the anti-freedom legislation described below, but I have faith the people will figure it out and reverse course.

The charge of “driving under the influence” used to only apply to drivers who were under the influence of drugs or alcohol—but it will now apply to drivers who text, eat, smoke, read or groom while driving in the state of Washington.
The implementation of the Driving Under the Influence of Electronics Act was expedited from January 2019 to July 23 after Washington Governor Jay Inslee signed a partial-veto, and insisted that “public safety is better served by implementing this bill this year.” Continue reading “DUI-E Law Now Makes It Illegal to Text, Smoke and Even Eat While Driving”

Lacking sufficient funds to bail oneself from jail after arrest has long mandated a lengthy stint behind bars while awaiting trial; but this modern iteration of a Dickensian debtor’s prison system may finally have met its match in a judge from Chicago, who — perhaps fed up — ruled this week that income should not bear sole weight in determining bail.
Considering court dates are not infrequently months or years in the future, countless lower-income Chicagoans — particularly, those charged with nonviolent drug and other offenses — won’t be unjustly forced to languish behind bars, worsening their financial situation, due to unreasonable bail.

(NEW YORK) — A person who reported eating at a Chipotle in northern Virginia has tested positive for norovirus. But health officials say that’s not yet enough to determine the cause of the roughly 60 reported illnesses it has identified.
The location in Sterling, Virginia, was temporarily closed for cleaning this week after customers reported symptoms that Chipotle said were consistent with norovirus. That sent shares of the restaurant chain down, underscoring how vulnerable its reputation remains almost two years after an E. coli outbreak that sent its sales plunging.
