@noname @DestinyASingh Hot take (for some): Incarceration is not an effective deterrent, does not make communities safer, and serves, in many cases, only to displace crime. Reforming *people* is a better solution.

@BarExamTutor I'd like to see how one state's results would translate to another state. For example, how many people failed NC's bar exam with a 266/268 (270 to pass) but would've passed in, say, New Mexico (260). In other words, if passing in NM was 266, would it have 20% pass rate? 1/2

@kvtweeted @thehandsomezach And the reasons vary. Many are trained only in how to compose an article rather than to actually learn about the topics they'll be covering. Also, many get in good with police agencies and believe they are an extension. That they are somehow friends.

I don't know if there's a god or not (neither do you), but it gets on my nerves when people die in a disaster/tragedy and survivors attribute their living to a god who apparently favored them over other humans. Like, where was god when the deceased needed a god?

SC's new left-lane law in effect. Generally, don't ride left unless passing someone. There are exceptions. For example, if a poultry truck has overturned in an outside lane, do not run over the chickens. You will not run afoul of the law by moving left. Afoul. A fowl. โŒ๐Ÿฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿš—
