If you're going to leave racist letters lying around at least bother to proofread and pick a font that's not ass.
Ugh, this kind of disgusting, morally condescending, ignorant racism makes me sick. It's just utterly disgusting. Way worse than any words one could say (n-word), or any questionable opinion one might have about another race in the privacy of their home; the fact they think they're opinion entitles them to get someone fired and marginalised is completely fcked up. It's flagrant, it's blackmail, it's not substantially harmless (as most things that people call out as racism often are), it's dangerous to a healthy society, it's totally and utterly fcked.
Bleah, I need to wash my eyes after reading that trash, I hope whomever wrote it has something horrible happen to them.

Haha yeah idiot, message the daycare, the place that is under no obligation to keep you and your kid around, about your awful racist demands.
That will work out perfect. You and your disgustingly cutesy font will surely not wind up out on the pavement.EDIT: I guess it was anonymous. But someone like that will probably not be smart enough to remain under wraps if you ignore their bullshit. That or they'll fuck off and won't be missed for the same reason.

I wasn't aware that natural skin pigmentation could affect someone's views on mortgage payments.

lol at the idea that the kids are the ones afraid of the scary dark woman, preschool/daycare age kids especially don't give the remotest fuck about that sort of thing.
-
I bet the joker who wrote that must also think clowns lurk in sewers too.

Why in the everloving fuk would you choose that font? I mean, that person went out their way to change the default times new roman/calibri or whatever to one of the least suiting font for a letter.
-
TBH, what is the correct font to a racist tirade?

Guess not all of them enjoy California, New York, & Florida.

reconciliation talks being held between the Palestinian Authority and Hamas.
Quite sad how Palestinians struggle to make peace with themselves.

The independentist claim busses and trains for people from outside the community, without providing photos or evidence of aragoneses coming.
In Venezuela they do that but the buses themselves are plain to see, the drive is evident, and it fails to account that every other legal-ish vote or openly independentist candidate has been defeated electorally before .
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
The government has been playing dirty as well, they changed the requires time for a company to move across communities, after the two biggest Catalan banks announced that they were moving. A few other big companies are planing on jumping ship as well.
Tourism is down 30%, in reserves for the rest of the year as well.
I mean, if you threaten me to take me out of the EU, I'd also hightail out of here as well. The biggest lie of the independent side is that "everything will be the same", without taking time to notice all the deals that would need to be remade, all the paperwork needed to even use the euro again, or the need to build up the central state needs that a modern society needs, besides dragging along a sizeable expat community that can't vote.

I read somewhere that pro-independence wouldn't even want to risk the possibility of Barcelona and Real Madrid no longer playing soccer in the same league.
Leaving Spain while keeping all the benefits of being a Spaniard is a meaningless independence. -
Oh yeah the football. Id guess they would have to move as well. There is way too much money on the barça. Or have another "special exception".

Or abandon the red&blue, and the Arab airline buys the malaga or another random team and just buys the Barça players.
-
I actually debated the whole thing about Barcelona’s football team with a student today. It would be so cool if a football team would be the one thing to stop a secession of a state.

"Oh my stars-and-garters, I must humbly ask you young man, if you'd be so gracious, to go to the general store and get a package of poutine and biscuits for Mr. van Dutch/French-Fur-Trapper-Descent and I. The Bills game is on and I daresay that my husband Mr. van Dutch/French-Fur-Trapper-Descent does not believe in leaving the house on such occasions. Our son, bless his heart, is making a short drive up to Oswego to see his beau at college, isn't that lovely?"

The homophobic gay bashing contingent is very upset about their sons and other peoples sons possibly being around girls more.
-
Still will be gender separated it seems, good. Teen pregnancy skyrocketing have to wait longer.
Reminds me of what happened here last year, students from middle school?? Not sure if it fits to us education system, is probably closer to high school, well they were people aged 14/15, a classroom went onto camping to celebrate graduation and 4 girls came back pregnant, lol. Parents were so pissed. -

So…does this mean it's not the boy scouts or girl scouts anymore, but just...The Scouts?

A mixed gender scout troop would have all the unbridled lust and chaos of a Christian youth group.

I'm gonna guess sex ed isn't the highest quality in Mexico.

Teen pregancy happens everywhere, the u.s. Even has a tv show for it.
Not parents around makes it even easier. -
Teen pregancy happens everywhere, the u.s. Even has a tv show for it.
Not parents around makes it even easier.One reason for it happening is that it's needlessly difficult to get access to birth control and even harder to get an abortion (along with Sex Ed. legitimately not being taught) not simply because you have girls and boys around each other with no supervision
And this is without mentioning the stigmatism that surrounds those who can get abortions and the ones that do have the kids but had the temerity to have them underage or out of wedlock. -

One is avoided with sex ed and preservatives. The other with birth contol/abortion.

Not parents around makes it even easier.Indeed so does drug violence.
Willimantic Connecticut and Ciudad Juarez Mexico? Same difference.
Sure one is meth addicts mugging college students, and the other is bloodthirsty giant size cartels with private armies. But drug violence, is everywhere.Funny you should mention those TV shows, I'm willing to bet the vast majority of their subjects are from areas of the US that also have crappy sex education and/or poverty.

So that's an argument… against?

Hey, you got to learn at some point.

The pregnancies resulting from the celebrations after the pine wood derby shall be numerous indeed.

Much like you're doing more or less the same thing that homophobes do whenever homosexuals or trans people are given the go ahead to do certain things
like work around kids. -

Eehhhmm ye.. Coming back to the actual point, teenagers do have unprotected sex when no parents are around.

If only was that easy to prevent teen pregnancy with sex ed alone.
-

I know full well what the topic is given I was the one that mentioned the story we're now debating with regards to the supposed notion that girls and boys simply being around one another always leads to sex and teenage pregnancies.
It's most definitely not that simple let alone that easy.

Not always, schools aren't sex-festivals.
Sleepovers and camping out of town in the other hand, does gives certain circumstances to horny little brats do dumb things, also the article points out that while girls are now allowed to join in, they will still be gender separated and I sooo much bet that the possibility of teen pregnancies are one of the main factors for this decision to be made. -
I reckon this is good, might get some romance into the scouts, instead of being a somewhat nerdy boy-only outdoors thing. Sure, the sex thing might be a problem, but I rules around where people sleep and the fact people are sleeping in groups and not alone should mitigate that.
Sure, they could sneak out of the camp, and go have sex in the forest or something. Maybe the scouts should give out condoms at the beginning of the camping trip… I mean who cares as long as they're having safe sex, right?
(Yes, I have no interest that they're all under 18. That's what living in a country where the age of consent is 14 does to you, and hey, teenage pregnancy is among the lowest in Europe, as are abortion rates among teens, so I laugh at your American indignation at teens having sex )
EDIT: (tbf, it might have something to do with Condoms being sold at all times of night in vending machines in the street, for anyone underage to buy. I don't see that in the UK, you have to actually go into a shop and buy them :getlost:)
-

And there are zero variables or factors that effect this happening, or any possible consequences thereof. It is a naked lone fact screaming in an endless void.
