Officer threatened to slam my dad on the ground in front of us all for telling him politely to have a nice day.

Officer screamed at us in high school when we called for help because someone was beating up our friend then did nothing.

Or anything else you can think of. Human behavior is stochastic. My real point is that people don't recognize problems when they are younger--red flags from narcissistic behavior, for example. It's easy to get into a relationship without realizing that the person you love will abuse you.

You get into these things when you’re younger and it’s very hard to get out again later.

I just think it’s stupid to identify with a for profit institution.

I sort of feel that this has to be a concept born from eugenics to talk about how some lines are superior to others.

I wish I could have seen this comment, too bad.

That's correct, which is where my comments comes from. They aren't curious about the definition of a hate crime, they are trying to insert doubt while feigning ignorance.

This is what really pisses me off about the stock market. It's all free market capitalism until it goes bad then suddenly people are concerned with the knock-on effects.

There are people asking questions and there are people "asking questions" in an attempt to derail debate.

LOL you're delving into the typical sorts of pedantics that people turn to when they don't have an argument. "OOH OOH but Merriam Webster says that 'teenager' means blah blah blah" while completely sidestepping the fact that this person is a legal adult and is fully responsible for their actions, which is what the adults in the room are talking about now.

This checks as being just the sort of 18 year old who would support Trump. They probably have a long list of right-wing podcasts on repeat.
