A stop sign = yield to traffic that has the ROW.
It means the same thing.

This just proves you could hand Democrats a bucket of shit, and yall would still be like: "See? The Dems care about us. Republicans didn't even try to hand us a bucket of shit!"

The government isn't run like a business, hence the employees of the government should not be compensated like it is a business. It is public service for a reason.

You have not established this to be true, yet.

Yellow flashing = ROW
Red flashing = yield to cross-traffic
Ambulance without emergency lights on is to be treated as just a regular vehicle. 30mph is the speed limit in most places, so they should be going 30mph.

There would be less kids shot in schools, with increased police presence.

Zero-tolerance policies often tie the hands of teachers/adults from even touching students on the shoulder to pull them away from a fight.
Even more reason why we should hire armed teachers who are trained police officers and thus exempt from these zero-tolerance policies.

You have a kid with no father nor male father figure...a mother who works 2-3 jobs and is never home...he gets in trouble at school, what does he have to fear?
He gets arrested? Immediately adds to his clout. Who is going to discipline him? Who does he have to fear?

If its anything like my experience going to school in dorchester, its a neighborhood thing. Kids from Neighborhood A fight kids from Neighborhood B, fight kids from Neighborhood C, etc.

I mean, context is key.
And in today's "zero-tolerance" culture, context is often overlooked.

Wtf is going on?

Correct. But all of those people are documented, aka here legally.
We're discussing undocumented individuals.

> The license doesn’t give them the ability to vote, and this law doesn’t give a pathway to citizenship, so I don’t really see the issue with it.
The goal is not to give noncitizens citizenship, but rather to give noncitizens the right to vote in our elections. With drivers licenses, they would now have official, state-recognized identification, which can be used as the basis for voter registration.
Noncitizen voting rights was on the ballot in Oregon this election, and just barely failed. I wouldnt be surprised if it comes up in a few other states in 2024, and possibly passes somewhere in 2026. Might even be in our own state.

Which is why it is important that we carefully analyze the legitimacy of any call for "experts".
Unfortunately, facts are subjective in today's world. Objective truths are often considered "misinformation" by "experts" with an agenda.

Forgive them, they were chatting on the phone the whole 15-20 seconds they were driving up the on-ramp, when they should have been scanning traffic to time their merge.
