Hold over from Stalin and Mao era, the commies was the big bad. Like after 9/11 it was the Muslims

We cook together, everyone has a dish or two to make. Then we go cut down a Christmas tree that weekend and decorate.

Solitary animals yawn too. Don’t if they can catch yawns, or how to test it.

God, I had to stop reading, what the actual fuck

Agreed that the reason people are hungry needs to be addressed. However, it’s far better than nothing faith based or otherwise.

I won’t get started on a bank vs. a pantry, but they are different. What a pantry offers and when they are open varies drastically between pantries. Out of date food does not necessarily mean that it isn’t safe to eat. The FDA has a table of food types and when to throw it away. Canned and dried foods are typically good well past the expiration date.

I work at a food pantry, we are open one day a week. Pre Trump the average was 25 families, our typical now is 36. Yesterday there were 55 famlies, 150 people total. I don’t know what we are going to do next week if the snap benefits lapse. We can’t handle that many people regularly.

It always starts that way. But good God any treatment for a disease the was a guaranteed death sentence is absolutely amazing.

Yep! How much stomach acid, how fast an individuals GI system processes food, lots of variables. Diseases that affect the GI are kinda weird IMHO. :]

Yes! :)

It would be due to multiple variables. There needs to a certain amount of bacteria in the small intestine. Some of the variables would be, the amount of bacteria initially ingested, number of bacteria that make it past the stomach, immune system of the host, time for the bacteria in the intestine to reach a concentration to cause symptoms.

There are multiple different types of salmonella infections. They typical serotype in Africa is invasive, meaning it’s in the blood and people can become septic. This one appears to be non-invasive, it is similar to food poisoning.

The main issue with any computer is that they can’t adapt to new situations. We can infer and work through new problems. The more variables the more “new” problems. The problem with biology is there isn’t really any hard set rules, there are almost always exceptions. The amount of functional memory and computing power is ridiculous for a computer. Driving works mostly because there are straightforward rules.

Don’t think the children voted for Tump.

The Lawyers for the county/state/nation are in charge of deciding if there is enough evidence for an arrest. The charges for the man with the rifle are fairly straightforward. If you are committing a crime and someone dies, even if you don’t directly kill them, it is murder. Creating a panic in a crowd is a crime. All they need to prove in that case is he created a panic, and someone died because of it. They don’t need to prove intent to kill, just to scare the crowd.

For the man who pulled the trigger, it will probably be a lesser charge. He clearly didn’t intend to kill a bystander. So, they need time to collect evidence and to decide what charge to bring. That can actually take a while, and they might not feel that they can win a trial. In that case he would not be charged. It’s way more complicated in his case.

Even if no one shot, pointing a gun and charging at a crowd is dangerous. Causing a crowd to panic can cause crushing deaths.

Regardless, when a gun is pointed at something it is to shoot. The basics of gun safety is to assume every gun is loaded and only aim at things you mean to destroy.

It’s a bit unreasonable to defend the guy who rushed a crowd with a gun. However, it is completely understandable to criticize the person who shot into the crowd even if it was a defensive action.

Just to be clear here, the peacekeepers were civilians that organized themselves to defend protesters. Everyone involved in the shooting was a civilian. Police were only involved after the fact.

Not an ancestor

Wat?

The government of Israel is evil.
These people worked for the embassy.

We can’t condemn people in broad terms. That is what started this. Killing someone because of their nationally, race, or job, is wrong. It’s more senseless killing, adding to the hundreds of Palestinians killed.

Guard yourself against seeing individuals as the enemy, when their only sin is where they were born.

Cults and brainwashing.

No, they must live there.
