Reverend Barber is an amazing advocate for civil rights. This is a disgrace.

Looks like a Renaissance statue.

She’s smiling, so you know it’s all okay

Note to self- return to this thread and make a joke about the “honor system,” but work in the words “your honor.”

What would you judge people on other than their history?

I’m disinclined to forgive Biden when he hasn’t “forgiven” those incarcerated by his laws.

Biden has had the opportunity to make changes, which is great. Convicted felon a rarely get that chance

I’ll ask you - how would you feel about someone writing off this legislation as being “30 years ago” of you were someone who lost decades of their life to this draconian legislation? If you are a felon who can’t vote? If you are a minority person in your 30s who didn’t have a father for huge chunks of their formative years thanks to the mandatory sentencing laws?

Bold of you to assume my phone hasn’t been on vibrate for the last 15 years.

It’s “conservative” to judge a politician based on their record and actions?

I mean, I guess you can take that point of view. But there are people still in jail based on that bill from thirty years ago. They’d probably like us to stop judging people based on past events.

Wait - the entire legal system is “fixated on past events.” What are you even on about?

I’ll take “Unsurprising But Disappointing Headlines” for $2k…

Okay. Not “force” but just encourage.

My impression is that there’s tons of lurkers here who aren’t contributing.

You can make a post without it being a shit post.

Go to your local community board and mention a great pizza joint. Or a hike. Or share a pic of an animal you’ve seen.

It’s just a question of content quantity.

We should have a Lemmy Drive Day. Where every user is encouraged to make five posts and twenty-five comments.

It would be a kickstart.

Oh gosh this is absolutely terrible.

Where?
