UK Office of National Statistics came up with a new rainbow acronym. I wonder why?

Guardian headline: LGB+ people in UK ‘much more likely’ to take their own lives than straight people

I’m wondering, there’s a independence movement in Greenland, as in independence from Denmark, but how do Greenland inhabitants (e.g. Inuit), feel about the EU ?

Would an independent Greenland still want to remain within the EU or would they want to break away from the EU ?

Can anyone from […]

Q: Which Inter City Express 3 coaches have 1 door and which have 2 doors ?

A: It seems the coaches that are powered only have one door (1, 3, 6 and 8), the other have two.

Good question here: what will happen LEGALLY about Kavanaugh stops? And will it happen fast?

Answer: not a lot and no.

/1
Ken, I know courts tend to move slowly, but what are the chances we start to see more expedited handling of increasing numbers of cases of "Kavanaugh stops" like this targeting American citizens with what seems like a lot more than a brief stop for questioning?

/2 First: people who are Kavanaugh Stopped (that is, detained by law enforcement based on skin color) may, if they are charged with a crime, be able to ask the court to suppress evidence seized as a result of their detention — evidence found on them, for example — for a Fourth Amendment violation.
