It was a way to not deal with the issue directly, and to give members of the LGBTQ+ community an option to hide who they are and not receive punishment. But it in no way protected them. It was sold as a “compromise”, but was actually a thinly veiled way to continue to suppress the community and enact harsh penalties and convictions for anyone who didn’t follow the protocol.
lol at the 6 (at the time of writing this) trump supporters that downvoted you and are cool with trump pardoning convicted killers, his own sycophants that were convicted of federal crimes, and people that gave him bribes for his presidential pardons at the 11th hour; but not cool with pardoning people wrongfully convicted of a bigoted piece of propaganda turned law with “Don’t ask, Don’t Tell”.
Having been raised in a religious household and having escaped it later in life to become an engineer/science nerd, while being ostracized by my, incredibly, incredibly disappointing parents because they refuse to learn new things or acknowledge scientific studies that conflict with their religious views:
This answer is unequivocally, absolutely, a 100% correct take on humanity and their need for the “simplistic” and incorrect answers religion gives about the world around them.
Well. Now I’ve got another fear to add to the list.
She wasn’t successful in killing the child, so no, no pardon from Abbott. He only pardons actual convicted killers of hate crimes.

The double decker is still around, they call it something else, but you can still order it.
That’s pretty much exactly what he claimed.
It didn’t happen to him though, so clearly it never happened. He also doesn’t believe in shark attacks, or the holocaust.
Hate to say it, but I agree here.
This is the price paid for not treating real guns with respect. Prop bullets or otherwise.
Yes, but he’s acting as a rallying flag to drive the alt-right together, normalizing their behavior and bringing it out into the open instead of dog whistling.
Without him, they have no lightning rod to travel towards as a coordinated group.
I wouldn’t count Russian Bots as people, but yeah, there’s a lot of noise here trying to make sure trump wins.
And the cycle repeats, again and again, until there’s nobody left
He clearly was typing on his phone and his message was obvious.
I disagree that religion has nothing to do with it. Religion is the vehicle used for these people to molest children, and religion often protects them when they’re found out.
Religious institutions do an absurdly terrible job of governing themselves, or background checks, etc.
They’re the reason so much of this is allowed to keep happening.
FWIW, I never thought I’d remarry either.
It could happen if you meet the right person and want to share your life with them. Took us close to 8 years of dating before we got married.
Super small wedding, total of 7 people invited. I kept waiting for the “other shoe to drop” with her, but it never did, and then I realized she’s the real deal, and I could commit with her without some dark side of her personality showing up or her getting run off to the hills with my issues.
Anyhow, maybe it doesn’t work for you, and it sounds like maybe not with your current GF with the mental health issues.
Wishing you guys all the best regardless, just wanted to let you know I was pretty much in the same camp until a couple years ago after my previous marriage ended almost 15 years ago.
Let’s fuck, Adobe.
But it removes the ability to liquidate the company to pay off the personal debts as part of the restructuring of the bankruptcy. This is kinda exactly what Alex Jones wanted to happen. Now it’s a race.
This is the only real answer here.
Every other answer is in some way just making your perception of time accelerate.
But the only way to process emotional loss, of a close loved one; is with time. That’s just the way our brains are wired. We couldn’t survive as a species if we didn’t get numb to pain and trauma in the past.
They’re intentionally trying to get people to not vote. They’re not like your and me, they’re a bad actor. Don’t feed them.
