The politically powerful who want to affect school appear to be those who are the least aware of the nature of human learning.

If the gunnuts always blame mental health for mass shootings, how about mental health screenings included in a universal background check before obtaining a gun? Maybe even some training? Licensing? Registration?

Texas would let me die.
It's as simple as that.

New Year. Same question: How is Clarence Thomas still on the Supreme Court?

Now doctors have to "contend" with women who know at 16 that they would never choose to bear a child, all the way to women very close to menopause who are desperate to get pregnant, and the gamut between. It takes a special person to be a good ObGyn these days...it's an evolving specialty.
