The laws governing public schools should apply to any school that receive public funds. Many private schools would quickly crumble given how chaotic and disorganized I’ve heard they are from teachers that left working in private schools.

Segregation should not be allowed in the education system.

From what I can tell, they didn’t bar posters for other religions on the walls next to it.

Another head of the hydra choped off, how many more heads will grow back?

I’m sure the megachurch will still be around, question is how many other churches will spring out of its congregation and how many more victims will they all make.

Trump won TX in 2020 by only 631,221 votes. If we have better turnout this year, we could make TX blue! The polls are only busy on the final day to vote, even though we have a 2 week long voting period with the polls open during the same hours as election day during the entire 2nd week of voting. Don’t wait until the last day and check if your local polling places are open on the weekend!

For those in TX, the last day to register to vote is Oct 7.

Voting goes from October 21-Nov 1, with one final day to cast your vote on Nov 5.

Applications to vote by mail must be received by Oct 25.

Thats interesting, i hadn’t heard that before! Looks like Biden received 5,244,103 votes in New York, which is 15,023 less than he received in TX.

Looks like TX just needs more of the urban population to turnout to cou tractor the red rural parts.

It could happen if we could get more people to the polls.

In 2020, there were 21.5 million people in the voting age population, of which 16.95 million were registered to vote, and of those 11.3 million cast a vote. Of the votes, Trump receuved 5,890,347 votes and Biden received 5,259,126.

Hopefully we will have even better turnout this Oct/Nov. We were the first state to have an in-person early voting period and unfortunately, over 40 years later, isn’t well-utilized.

No, but they’ll make sure that you get some trauma

Billy Graham wasn’t around in 1860. The article said that he died in 2018 at age 99, so he was born in either 1918 or 1919 nearly 60 years after 1860.

According to the 1960 Census, taken during Graham’s lifetime, it appears the numbers dont line up with your statement. In 1960, the total population was 179,323,175 and the total nonwhite population was 20,491,443. If we keep the 1 in 20 estimate (or 5%), then there was an estimated 8,966,159 LGBTQ+ people in 1960, less than half of the amount of the non-white population. about 4 times as many non-whites in 1860 during the other guy’s lifetime.

Edit: just realized I was mistaken and have corrected my statement. Sorry about that!

Cub Scouts is age 5-10 Boy Scouts age 10-18th birthday Venturing 14-21st birthday

I thought I had remembered them allowing some boys. I know of a male girl scout leader.

I’ll edit that part.

Not only separate tents, but the boys’ tents are grouped together and girl tents are grouped together with the adult tents in between those two groups. There also must be at least 1 adult of each sex.

Teenagers are full of hormones through puberty and many begin experimenting. Boy Scouts don’t age out until they are 18.

Boy Scouts can join a troop at 10 and age out at 18. It’s not uncommon for high schoolers to begin experimenting sexually.

Further there’s also a branch of Boy Scouts called Venturing that is co-ed where participants age out at 21.

The Girl Scouts started accepting boys years before the boy scouts started accepting girls around 10 6 years ago.

They had boys and girls in different tents to prevent them from having sex. I’m not sure how they deal with lgbt scouts.

Edit: Boys Scouts first allowed girls into Venturing, a program for those 14-21st birthday. Girls were allowed into Boy Scout troops and in Cub Scouts in 2018.

Cis boys aren’t allowed in Girl Scouts.

For comparison, POTUS makes $400K

How’d y’all communicate with builders? Do you say this building has 0 floors to say that it’s si gle story and say that it has 1 floor to mean that it’s 2-story?

Is Waze functional again? I used it first several years until it started changing my destination without warning mid-route

Dallas proper has some light rail around downtown with a couple lines that travel outward, and even a train that goes from Downtown Dallas to downtown Fort Worth. It’s still difficult to get to a lot of places outside downtown, the American Airlines Center, and the State Fair ground though.

Houston I think has some buses, but it would also be difficult to get too far from downtown.

Not so much in the US. At least in my state, they don’t have enough subs and have to double up classes when a teacher is sick.

Wow, I’ve never had that much time off when working. We get 5 sick days from the state and 0-5 from the district. You lose any district days that you don’t use, but you keep any state days that aren’t used.

One of the teachers had never taken a day off in his 30+ years and had a ton of state days. They wouldn’t let him donate more than 5 to a teacher who just gave birth, so she had to come back to work after just 2 months.
