Good article.
It's clear that the armed civilians saved innocent lives by pinning Whitman down. Today's more heavily armed police might be able to handle the same scenario without help from private citizens. However, they still can't be everywhere all the time. Armed citizens stop crimes thousands of times per year before the police arrive. | 0 | not toxic |
Donald see above discussion. All Alaskans are stockholders in their own assets. We have a chance to be more democratic than all other states because we can affect the board of directors (leg) and the chair of the board (gov) actions. The value of our stock has been reduced...thus the leg and the gov should receive critiques and repercussions. | 0 | not toxic |

To be really fair, they should stop every car going 36 in a 35 mph zone. But I am glad they aren't completely fair. I'm fine with them picking and choosing a bit. They do this because while it is a law, few people know it. They also choose this because a driver not knowing this law can end up with someone else being killed. A jaywalker puts themselves in danger, as do bicyclist lawbreakers (I know, plenty of exceptions). But I like the general rule of focusing on situations where the lawbreaker puts others in harm's way. | 0 | not toxic |

I do not think you know what are you talking about. 15% is Federal tax rate on net company income. If one is drawing salary he/she pays taxes just like anyone else acording to tax bracket. To boot if earning over 3K then Company pays CPP and individual pays CPP as well. That is double since he/she owns a Company. One can draw an income in form of dividends which is 8.1% up to 38K and 41% over 202K. Note that dividend is paid and taxed at this rate after the 15% of tax. One also needs to consider benefits before leaving regular emplyment.
Yes, there are few benefits, writing off, mileage, company car, office space in your house, tools and so on. Dividends can be paid only to shareholders of a company. There are some ideas floating around about what some companies may do to avoid taxes, but in bulk most of them are tax fraud and evasion. Best thing I like, is that I do not have to listen to uninformed superiors, like the one who suggests incorporating, without knowing circumstances. | 0 | not toxic |

It is very interesting to me a graduate of a Catholic Medical School, where I was taught in the 1960's that pedophillia was not a treatable condition, that so many Catholic Bishops sought out psychological treatment from a minority of psychologists who attempted treatment. Most of these "treatment centers" have fortunately been closed as useless. Some have admitted their mistake and attempt to treat other psychological problems. Yet Bishops even today use the idea that they were misled by psychologists. Too bad they did not consult with the women Catholic Social Workers trained in their own institutions about these problems. It could have headed off this scandal. Yet Bishops were willing to pay to keep these specially ordained men in the ranks. They were willing to stand up for their own clergy before they were willing to protect our children. Some of these same men are still powerful today. FIRE THEM NOW!! yes the shout is purposeful... | 0 | not toxic |

More women work in retail, so comparing one to one jobs is not appropriate. Factor in danger pay, seasonailty, less job security and less transferably and the 'wage' disparity drops off.

Okay, the number of Americans who applied for a grant of citizenship rose by 70 percent in the 12 weeks following the election of President Donald Trump when compared to the same period a year earlier. Percentages are absolutely meaningless. If it was ten people last year, a 70% rise would be 17 this year, which is not very many. Stop playing games and give us the actual numbers.

This pipeline has sparked an Indian movement that has been festering for hundreds of years. The thousands of people who have joined the Hunkpapa Indians are testimony to a larger problem. You will find nitwits arguing that a pipeline is the safest way to export the oil. The question ignored is, who does the oil belong to? I say that the oil belongs to the people. Nitwits say we have to move huge amounts of oil. Why, on God's green earth, why? We have a glut of oil right now sitting in storage tanks. Why not leave the oil in the ground for now, the best storage? Why drain every drop of oil from the ground in record speed? How stupid can you get? The Indians are the only ones showing intelligence and restraint in this situation. Many white people agree with them. The authorities say they arrested dangerous protesters. However, they did not arrest the security guards who brought in vicious dogs to bite people. How stupid can you get, Mr. Dalrimple? | 1 | toxic |
Yeah but ... so? Any group of people who believe that their race, religion, whatever is superior and ought to replace and eliminate all others is a PROBLEM and I don't care what their race, religion, whatever is. Nazis, for example, are a PROBLEM. Nazis ARE bad guys, period. They have demonstrated (check out some mid-20th centry history, for example) that they are a MAJOR PROBLEM.

The way I see it, "immigrants" -- by which you seem to mean people of colour rather than WASP stock -- do the jobs WASP white Canadians are too darn lazy to do. When did you last see a WASP white Canadian running a corner store, or a dry-cleaners, or mopping the floors in a hospital? No, "Canadians" are too good for jobs like that. "Canadians" go to university and get semi-useless degrees just so they don't have to mop floors or drive taxis. But someone has to do those jobs, and unless WASP white Canadians are ready to step up to the plate, it'll have to be immigrants. And immigrants of all colours and backgrounds and religions, not just the palatable WASP ones. | 1 | toxic |

It's really clear to me in reading these comments that people posting haven't been downtown on a regular basis since the dog ban. I live downtown(in the core) and it has changed dramatically. Much more police presence, far fewer loiterers, very few dogs, the yelling and screaming has decreased markedly, the park blocks are cleaner and in general there is a happier attitude of those who visit/live here. The issue of safety is improved through the increased police/red hats presence. I don't feel like I'm walking on red alert like I used to.
Again, I live in the core of downtown Eugene where all the problems were occurring. It's a much different place. There will always be the mentally ill and street people/travelers who have trouble obeying the law but their numbers have decreased markedly. I would encourage people to visit downtown and ask the business owners how they feel about the changes. Every one of them I've spoken to appreciate everything that's being done. | 0 | not toxic |

Better check your stats, again. The last (and only) time the same sex marriage issue was put on the ballot, our state overwhelmingly said no in 1998. I believe it was ~73% of the voters who voted said no. Then gov Ben did the bait and switch/sleight of hand w/ civil unions. Of course it didn't pass until 2009 - 2012,but I'm pretty sure there were many Dems who made up part of that 70%+ figure, so your comment is inaccurate. Blaming the Republican party for Democrat party failures is called transference. Its a typical Alinsky tactic (e.g. Trump-Russia collusion, when it was DNC/Hilary/Podesta/Obama-Russia collusion).
For your comment to be accurate, the issue of same sex marriage would need to be put on the ballot again, voted on again, and THEN the outcome would be clearer. Abercrombie railroaded it on us, despite public outcry against it. And a statewide vote, to boot (i.e. 1998). | 0 | not toxic |

It is an interesting debate. I'm certainly a strong supporter of property rights, but there is a balance that's necessary when you have many land owners in close proximity to each other because there is some spill-over affect. That's why we have cites/towns, and rural areas. The choice to own land in a city/town comes with the knowledge that property development will have more limits places on it (zoning) as compared to rural land ownership where there aren't nearly as many close-proximity neighbors.
Now, while that is a justification for zoning in cities/towns, it's not an endorsement of extreme zoning limitations. I still favor only modest limits applied by zoning. Land owners still ought to have quite a bit of leeway with what they can do with their property. But there are some big things that warrant limits to keep character of the city/town intact. | 0 | not toxic |

Agreed, we are discussing issues prior to original sin. I am using Last Common Ancestor in the sense used by geneticists in developing trees of life. That perspective sees no discontinuity at any point in evolution, and most certainly does not entertain our specific religious problem of ensoulment, a necessary and irreducible discontinuity from our perspective.
In imagining, in speculating, about a solution, I accept direct creation by Yahweh in the sense of ensoulment as inescapable, but see no reason to imagine the direct creation of the bodies of our earliest ancestors (which you seem to see as required?). Indeed, Yahweh directly creates everyone of us in the womb by a similar act of direct creation, of ensoulment of sexually reproduced biological matter. I suggest that once one ponders the equivalence of that first ensoulment and all subsequent ensoulments, each an instance of direct creation, then the starting point disappears as a problem.

Points well taken, Jake! But, we all need serious reflection.
In context, The KEPLER galaxy research satellite is finding evidence of untold numbers of Earth-like planets in deep-space. Planet Earth is but a dust-speck in context of cosmic expansion.
Evolving life on Earth is ever in transition, as the extinction of humankind is likely if not inevitable. It is insanity to witlessly accelerate species extinctions. Being petty and presumptuous is tragically silly and wittingly stupid.
The truly 'religious' thing to do is to begin to respect all life, and do what we can to avoid accelerating extinctions, and, work to secure species-diverse life on Planet Earth. Our ignorant hubris is air in the hot balloon of pride, making more imminent the risk of epic popping.
What's urgent is CHURCHES UNITED in common pursuit of well-being and Eucharistic sensitivity toward all life. We need to end the silly hubris of feel-good self-sufficiency and submit wholesomely to essential interdependency. Amen. | 0 | not toxic |
