“The sixth-grade boy took the loaded handgun from a drawer in his father's bedroom and brought it to school ... The father said he had seen nothing in the boy's behavior to indicate such an incident was possible.”
It’s called “curiosity”... #mnleg startribune.com/plymouth-6th…

—We spend $107,575,000,000 more on police than on public housing.
—15 states spend $27,000 more per person in prison than they do per student.
How about instead of pouring more funds into our brutal systems of policing and mass incarceration, we invest in communities?

I sued the Daily Mail for their publication of my nonconsensual nude images. Today, we lost in court because a judge - not a jury - thinks revenge porn is free speech. This fight has massive implications for any woman who ever wants to run for office, so quitting isn’t an option.
Today my client, @RepKatieHill, lost against perverted Daily Mail, a website that peddles in humiliation and monetizes sexual privacy invasions of women.
DM said, and the court agreed, that Katie's nudes were their free speech.
We think the appellate court will disagree. 1/
