Border patrol taking turbans
*US border patrol accused of taking turbans from Sikh asylum-seekers.*
Thugs are fond of contriving excuses to claim that they are required
to do something that will cause suffering to someone weak. |

Thousands deceived and evicted during Covid
*Four corporate US landlords deceived and evicted thousands during Covid.*
I contend that we should forbid ownership of buildings containing
housing for rent by corporations. Or else limit how many units, or
how many buildings, any one owner can own.
The article linked to above displays symbolic bigotry by
capitalizing "black" but not "white". (To avoid endorsing bigotry,
capitalize both words or neither one.) I object to bigotry, and
normally I will not link to articles that promote it. But I make
exceptions for some articles that I consider particularly important.
That article is one of these exceptions. |

Elected prosecutor "suspended"
Governor Dementis "suspended" the elected state prosecutor of Tampa,
who said he would refuse to prosecute anyone for abortions, and
put in his place a nonelected prosecutor.
I suppose Dementis has chosen a replacement who will eagerly prosecute
abortions. I wonder when the citizens of Tampa will have another chance
to elect a prosecutor. |

Sea turtles and temperature
The sex of a baby sea turtle is determined by temperature.
This must have been an effectively random choice in the past,
but now that it is so hot, all the loggerhead sea turtles hatching
in Florida are female.
In a few decades, that will cause extinction of the species — the females
will have no mates. |

Schools spying on students
Most US schools monitor everything students say and do on their
school-supplied laptops, and students are in a substantial danger of
being charged or harassed as a result.
If this massive surveillance continues, parts of the US may jail
students for seeking abortion resources (or birth control, or whatever
the Christian Taliban may prohibit) using those school-supplied
facilities.
A school-supplied laptop that allows connection to anything but the
school's own servers is bait — tempting students to browse the web
under direct monitoring by the school and the local thug department.
Paradoxical as it may seem, perhaps schools should be legally required
to limit these computers strictly to class assignments, so students won't
make the mistake of using them for their other activities. |

Chasing white suspect, arrests black man
*Boston police chasing white suspect wrongly arrested black man, lawsuit says.*
This is an extreme case of thugs' frequent practice of assuming a
black man is guilty of something, simply because he's black. They
knew the suspect was white,
The article linked to just above displays symbolic bigotry by

It *does not believe in the NHS but dares not say so.* |
