So, the whole SAVE Act makes it necessary to have a passport or birth certificate to vote.
How much outrage would there be if there were the same requirements to buy a gun?
Not asking for me - I'm just an idly-curious educator.
Seeing as we're so concerned about non-citizens committing crimes -

Freddie Mercury didn't go into the studio and nail the vocals for "The Show Must Go On" in one take while dying of AIDS for you to despair and give up now. Take the time you need, but then get up and get back out there.
The show must go on.
The show must go on.

If only we considered other events that should have made people stop, think, and enact change with regards to children dying.
The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

Pritzker: "He promised he was gonna lower costs & make us safer. He's done none of it. I realize he's only been in office 2 weeks, but it's gotten worse, not better. You think grocery prices have gone down? No, they've gone up bc of what he's threatening or what he's already put in place"

Today's shuffle relied heavily on the Allman Brothers, Freddie King, & Robben Ford.
The problem is that now I want to practice all day. The rain isn't helping that either.

If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane.
