Pregnant Kentucky woman cited for street camping while in labor.
She told a police officer she was in labor. The Louisville Metro Police Department lieutenant cited her for unlawful camping as the ambulance arrived. She had a baby later that day.
You're viewing a single thread.
The brutality of American society is insane. No wonder a majority of voters voted for a sociopathic malignant narcissist.
It's scary how a population can become as evil as has happened in much of USA.
This comment was reported as hate speech.
America is a melting pot. As such, if this speech was against an idea, it's no more hate speech that ati-fascist speech.
We have a ton of idiots advocating for billionaires, who would gladly toss us into a volcano.
While there are people that are good, enough bad people voted or didn't vote that this comment breaks no rules.
Don’t forget the SA of a thirteen year old girl
Well, remember, both the American and Australian colonies were the rejects not wanted in England so it isn't surprising when it turns out those descendants are racist pieces of shit.
Ohhh right, so England, the head of the Commonwealth is peak humanity? Gotcha.
PROUD descendents of racists. When you celebrate being on the side of slavery and bigotry of course it's going to continue unabated.
The British were heavily involved in slave trade. They built the whole inudstry of the american colonies around bringing slaves there, selling the product in Britain and then selling some British stuff to the slavers in Africa to buy more slaves. They royal fanily derived a lot of its wealth from slave trade.
Pretty ridiculous to generalize like that.
That's like saying 'you Europeans are all the same, voting for your queen and bishboshing to work everyday.'
Ignorant as fuck sounding, right?
The population in USA overall is actually evil, not all as individuals, but as a society. Death penalty, 3 strikes rule, persecution of homeless, bad healthcare for the poor, unlivable minimum wage, highest gun crime in the developed world, regular mass shootings, stand your ground, hostile to the environment and pollutes twice of Europe per capita, the 1% hoarding 50% of the wealth.
Americans in their laws are displaying a general mentality of sociopathy and blaming the victim, and might makes right. It is very clearly a sick society. It's sad that the sick mentality is so normalized, that many Americans can't even see it, when it's pointed out to them!
I am perfectly aware that not all Americans are like that, there are also amazing people, they are like flowers growing through concrete. But USA is a sociopathic society, and Narcissism is widely seen as a virtue, because it seen as an expression of the ultimate individuality and freedom.
You can’t vote for a queen or a king. That’s kind of the problem with monarchies.
So yes, that’s an ignorant as fuck statement.
Which is exactly my fucking point.
EU has far better democracy than USA. It's even part of the requirements to become a member. USA is a dysfunctional democracy, which is why it's basically a 2 party system. That's just one party more than any authoritarian nation, and it shows.
Arguably, the curtent US political system could be described as two 1 party systems alternating in power rather than a 2 party system.
It's fascism alternating with appeasement.
Ooh! So if GB wants back into the EU, will you guys make them stop supporting the welfare monarchy? Make the royals pay their own way! It's not like they will cease to exist, they just won't have tons of tax free estates.

United Kingdom ranks 18
USA rank 29
I wasn't discussing the US. I just think the royals should have to actually do something to pay GB back for once.
The royals of the UK is a UK matter, I don't think people outside UK care much about them.
We have our own Royals, and although I think the principle is morally wrong, they are actually a pretty integral part of our democracy, and have done a good job.
Most here may not realize this, but for instance we have on occasion had a parliamentary stalemate, that the Queen was instrumental in solving quickly, so government could function normally.
This is part of the reason Denmark is one of the most stable countries in the world. So most Danes are pragmatic enough to not to try to fix what already works.
Mind you royalty does NOT interfere in politics, but they facilitate and administrate negotiations in the case parliament can't decide on who shall run the government.
Yes our royalty cost money, but probably no more than a similar function that would require a president or some other institution.
He's so ignorant he doesn't get your post
Not a surprise. It may be lemmy, but that doesn't mean half of all people aren't dumber than average.
