A day ago the EPA officially rejected the science on global warming.

Beyond "oh, that happened" I won't read about it. I won't silently evaluate the coverage of it, as I often do. This item is going into the "too stupid, too important to be that stupid, and too painful" bucket. Do you ever do that?

Been through that with my dad. When his kidneys shut down they wanted dialysis. When he refused the Dr looked relieved.

We, the students of Central Indiana High Schools, have walked out of our classes today because we have been taught to speak out when we see injustice. We are committed to welcoming our neighbors and we know we must speak out for the most vulnerable among us. We believe in freedom, equal rights for all, and the importance of our constitutional rights. Fear and hate are not the foundation of the America we know and in which we believe. We see injustice and we have no choice but to oppose it.
We are the future of our city, of our country, and of our world. We have been let down time and time again by those we are supposed to look up to. It is time for us to take charge of our future - to mold it into what we want.
As we look around our country, we are faced with murders, kidnappings, disappearances, and state-sponsored violence that harken back to the secret police and squads of the worst authoritarian governments of the 20th century. Even though it is painful to contemplate, we call upon our friends and family to not look away. We demand an end to the tyranny and we will not stand idly by as our communities are terrorized.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Department of Homeland Security have no place in our communities. They hide their concentration camps behind nicknames and euphemisms.
Senate Bill 76 is an unconstitutional immigration enforcement mandate that will bring harm to our state. We stand with our fellow Hoosiers: students too scared to come to school, parents afraid to leave their homes, neighbors afraid to go to the hospital. All of them are fully human.
Every person residing in the US has a right to due process, a right to asylum, protection from illegal searches without a warrant, a right to an attorney, a right to emergency care, and a right to free speech. Current ICE practices are a violation of not just human rights but basic human dignity.
Let us take to heart the words of another Hoosier: "Americans have to unite and stop this descent f…

Our First Amendment rights are being stripped away from us as we speak. Some who have been brave enough to protest have faced unjust and deadly consequences. ICE does not enforce laws.
It enforces fear. Fear in schools, hospitals, workplaces. They try to use our fear as a weapon, but we must not allow them to any longer.
We are told this is about "security." But there is nothing secure about traumatizing communities.
There is nothing lawful about denying due process. There is nothing moral about profiting off detention.
Today we call for change. We believe in dignity over detention. We believe in compassion over cruelty. We believe in community over cages. We believe in humanity over hatred.
Human rights don't come with a citizenship requirement. It is time to bring back kindness. To bring back empathy and compassion. It is time to bring back the courage to care. In the wise words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., "Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."
Our city, our neighborhoods, and our nation must remain places of safety, where everyone belongs. So we encourage you all to continue to speak up and use your voice. Use your resources to help where you can. Because real change doesn't come from fear - it comes from love in action.

Open letter from students from various central Indiana high schools explaining why they are organizing walkouts in protest of ICE.

Hard not to get emotional in response to the moral clarity on display.

Way too late, but we’ll take it. Will he cave at last minute though?
With his service background I had hoped he would stand strong against the nonsense, many other too.

My parents were huge Cubs fans as well. When they won at 1:30am(for me)I called them. My husband said no way they would be awake. My Dad answered first ring & was so excited. His cancer was getting worse & he passed 4 yrs later.

Gander, N.L., residents drop everything to drive stranded air passengers to hotels Residents of Gander, N.L., formed an impromptu volunteer shuttle service for about 200 passengers aboard two planes forced to land unexpectedly at the town’s airport on Wednesday night.

The people of Gander, Newfoundland, were the ones who welcomed and took care of almost 7,000 "plane people" when 38 planes were forced to land there on 9-11. β€οΈπŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦
