WtfEvenIsExistence, to upliftingnews in Massachusetts Adopts Universal Free Meals For All Public School Kids

Personal story, might be slightly negative:

spoilerI remember in elementry school after moving to a different school district, I realized lunch there was not part of the National School Lunch Progam so I just didn’t eat anything because I felt like school lunch was a scam (I mean we all know how terrible they taste, at least in the US) and packing lunch just takes too much time and I was worried about being targeted by racists like “OMG, [insert name here] is bringing food all the way from China. Hahaha.” I mean like wtf is wrong with people.


I’m glad they did this, but I hope this can become nationwide.

So rare, I doubt they’d last long in the force. Either you stay long enough and get corrupted yourself, or you’ll get fired the moment you call-out the bad cop.

I mean… what rational jury would vote to convict?

Sorry, what I meant was that I would convieniently not remember this when I get asked about it during jury selection, then I might convieniently decide to vote non-guilty because I had a reasonable doubt. Totally not because I learned of jury nullification. Totally…

Also it’s not contempt of court since I “forgot” about it during jury selection. 😉

What’s jury nullification? I don’t remember ever hearing that word. Anyways I’m voting non-guilty because I have a reasonable doubt. 😉

Lol all it takes is 1 rational person to hang the jury. I mean what are the odds that the second jury will be all irrational people? They can’t just keep trying the same case forever, eventually a judge will dismiss it. Or most likely, a new jury will have majority of rational people that will likely convince the rest to just acquit. Like who wants to sit there any longer than they have to? It’s not like they’re releasing a murder suspect.
