My spouse found our primary group through local Facebook searches. These homeschool groups are often called "co-ops" or "circles", but another good place is to check out your local parks, museums, family attractions like

Homeschooling is not the isolation that most people think it is. In fact, the vast majority of parents who homeschool (myself included) join forces with other parents who homeschool for events, activities, and learning opportunities, all of

Can I just say, wow, that's insane. I can feed a family of four from McDonalds for around $24.00 out here in the Midwest. Are your Big Mac meals plated in 14 karat gold out there?

How is this not basically the reverse of redlining?

Yes, because men and women can't possibly be different.

1) Except, they didn't form a consensus. There was plenty of disagreement, and there is still a fair amount, of what the appropriate response was, often within the same fields of medicine. 2/3) I will give you that the vaccines ha

1) I am certainly not arguing over the idea that professionals tend to be more qualified when it comes to their fields then when it comes to politicians, but I would not be asking an orthopedic specialist for advice that I should be asking

1) I don't believe the considerations are equal because those in the medical profession do not make laws, and should never be empowered to make laws, often because their focus is too narrow (don't get me wrong, politicians are not

The same way a government turns around and says that things like child pornography, human trafficking, terrorism, hate speech, bullying, piracy are not allowed on the internet. It may not be the most effective thing in the world when there

You would probably greatly benefit from reading the books of Dr. Thomas Sowell as well.

I'm curious about the number of lava lamps used. Does the large number of lamps really generate "more randomness"?

Yes, it is.

Harsher sentencing for violent crimes with a weapon already exist and I would love if they were applied more often. But that's a different discussion. It's not about an expected rampage, of which I doubt there would be because we

18 USC § 2332a(c)(2) and it's companion in the definition of "Weapon of Mass Destruction" of 18 USC § 921 defines a WMD firearm as: (3)The term “firearm” means (A) any weapon (including a starter gun) which will or is designe

I'm not seeing why having a gun hobby is bad. I am not sure you realize the benefits of doing a precision activity like this when you, by your own admission, have never utilized nor have been inclined to utilize a firearm. Properly uti

That's a pretty big assumption, considering someone intent on committing a crime isn't exactly pre-disposed to follow the law in the first place and all you are really doing is disarming someone who does follow the law and placing

What is a weapon of mass destruction? How does that get defined? Beyond that, I don't believe the Second Amendment was ever meant to be framed in that manner. The idea was that firearms helped keep the government from ruling over it&#x

What is your definition of a rapid semi-auto? This is certainly not a term used by the majority of gun owners/manufacturers. EDIT: A semi-automatic firearm is defined by that which fires a single bullet per pull of the trigger and then

At the cost of otherwise disarming a much, much larger segment of the population who have never committed a crime with a firearm and are much better protected against crimes of many various types, including those with firearms.

And people who legally and respectfully own guns don't have different hobbies? All they can possibly think about is going out a shooting? Beyond that, clearly taking away guns doesn't stop violent crime. Domestic abuse is still a

Even beyond that, I find the arguments of gun control advocates to be lacking. "We need to take away guns because a very small percentage of people are violent with them." "Well, what do we do when we need help from someone w

When you go to input an appointment in Apple's Calendar app you can do it one of a few ways: 1) From another app, which obviously this author didn't do 2) Tapping the "+" icon on the top corner with a date in the calenda

Same thing. A previous appointment at the same time. The date is suggested because they selected June 16th so it's just a suggested time from previous calendar entries. I use this feature all the time on my phone.

This is hardly conclusive proof. If this individual had ever put in a doctor's appointment using this label before they are going to get suggestions.

This is, well, sadly quite a lacking declaration. 1) While the Dickey amendment may have made gun research more difficult, it was still done, and there have been numerous studies and analyses that have placed the number of defensive gun use
