« on: September 13, 2020, 08:56:34 am »Only if the minor is hunting, though I will concede the legislation is not very clear on that point.‘tis illegal for a minor to openly carry a gun in Wisconsin.Further research revealed that this doesn't apply to rifles. (Or shotguns.)
His defense team (and so many commentators) consider that important because if that law doesn’t apply, he was breaking the law and thus can’t say his actions were self-defense, all other things aside.

It’s more understandable with the word niggardly though. The word means stingy, ungenerous; not a nice thing to call someone, and it is not beyond the realm of possibility someone may think it grew from the n-word itself, even though it didn’t.
The “neige” thing is very stupid though. It came up in a class about communication organically in a context without racial connotations, and it was the people that made the complaint that made it have those connotations.
Because of cancel culture, the university presumably felt they had to look as though they weren’t going to protect such an unabashed racist and suspended him because any delay in action has the potential to make them look bad. Now they look bad for pandering to these idiots, which is better than maybe looking bad for not punishing racism.

I once had someone complain that a product that did not have its price reduced in the clearance section was unfair and that they wouldn’t pay that price.
They also could not seem to understand when I said we do not have infinite space in which to put product, and our main distribution center sometimes sends us things in error that we’re not allowed to send back so we have to fit it in somewhere, and that somewhere is occasionally in the clearance section, but not at a clearance price point.
They were, of course, insistent that they were right, so I got the manager for the department who said pretty much everything I said in the paragraph above, and that the price wasn’t going to change because they thought it was too high.
Then we went on with our day.

I mean, I assume that's what you wanted. I don't know what else you would have realistically expected.
