Muskrat Stans, conservative men & misogynists who don't believe women added value or... 2) could actually code applaud the 2nd picture while mocking the first. They openly speculate that the women were merely diversity quota hires & therefore incompetent, did no real work, sipped soy lattes & had spa days while the men did "real work"

Here's why I muted David Hogg. He has NO understanding of the blood, swear & tears generations of Black elders undertook just to take their right to vote. The Poll Taxes. The murders & lynching for simply REGISTERING to vote.

Bigma & Big Daddy... 2) NEVER missed a chance to vote Arthur Lee Beasley's Country Store which was their polling place. They took me along when I was 7 to watch them vote for Jimmy Carter.

CHEW ON BANNING "MAUS" 🧵

My first rape patient was about 60 if I recall. It was after dark & while we were chilling at the firehouse, we got a call to respond to "an unknown rescue". One of those personal alarms that people wear to summon help had gone off.

So, my partner &.. 2) I, together w/the boys on the Engine responded w/the County Police. We got to the scene before the police & I saw the young man who turned out to be the rapist running away. I got to the patient first after following a trail of ripped panties & a torn off housecoat leading...
