Are children the target audience of the article?

Are children likely to be detained independently of a guardian?

My birth certificate doesnt have a photo of me on it either.

DLs and other photo documentation are easily faked in comparison to a SSN.

My comment was meant in the assumption that you have a normal form of ID as well. While your ID could easily be faked to show your picture, only you should know your social security number. Thereby identifying the validity of your photo ID.

Regardless, many government databases should have your photo ID from drivers licenses, passports, etc, tied to your social

I have literally used only my SSN to prove my identity to a game warden before. I didnt have my ID because I was out fishing in a boat. We got checked for licenses. I gave him my social and all was good. ICE should be no different than that

Literally all you really need, fundamentally, is to have memorized your SSN. Your SSN’s validity cant be faked. It proves you are who you say you are at the drop of a hat. If its valid enough for a bank to loan you money through a phone, just because you know your name and your SSN and those match, then it should be good enough for ICE. Its good enough for normal law enforcement already.

And yes, many undocumented people have fake SSNs, but they are not real numbers that tie properly to persons name. They wouldnt pass an EVerify system

As a time saving measure, it never hurts to make sure the trigger is working properly while you check the barrel

This feels distinctly like one of those turning point moments in society becoming full blown idiocracy.

Anyone with half a brain can tell that social media is wrecking an entire generation of kids. The violence and vandalism it has incited in schools. Kids committing literal crimes and filming themselves doing it for clout. Social media is bad enough for people with a developed brain.

“Freedom of speech” is such a stupid argument here. I have freedom of speech, but that doesnt mean my rights are being violated if I dont get to voice my freedom of speech in a women’s bathroom. Banning kids wholesale from social media sites is not a violation of free speech unless you want to argue that they should also be allowed in bars, dispensaries, strip clubs, or on casino floors.

Go back like 100 years ago and it was normal for children to smoke, or drink beer, which is unthinkable now. Cigars were prizes at fairs for children, just like adults. Thats where “close, but no cigar” comes from.

Im sure that when people wanted to begin putting age limits on alcohol or tobacco there were plenty of people up in arms about “freedom” because they didnt want their most susceptible market taken away from them. This is literally no different to me. The government has a plenty compelling interest in protecting children by forcing them to wait until a reasonable age to engage with social media. Just like a beer or a smoke

The agency that so far, with all the prodding they have already done, found literally 2 cases of social security fraud. Literally two people.

What fruitful work theyre doing out there. At least by eliminating the security of our social security numbers, more people will be able to commit social security fraud, thereby increasing the amount of fraud they can find! Its genius really

Youd have to be pretty stupid to be a pentagon staffer and not have a good grasp of what is and is not an illegal action.

But then again, if Hegseth is your boss how smart can you be?

Youre skipping the first two words where it says “DA says”. Obviously its the opinion of the DA prosecuting him for murder that he is in fact the killer.

Yet another case of “bad headline” is just people not reading the headline

Either way, that is a pretty massive digression from the article, which is about medications. Apparently more people are dying on average from recently approved drugs than are dying from all illegal drug use combined. And the examples are not for extremely rare medications

“We need an agency that’s independent from the industry it regulates and that uses high-quality science to assess the safety and efficacy of new drugs,”… “Without that, we might as well go back to the days of snake oil and patent medicines.”

We basically are already there now, it seems

Sadly, when it comes to health code violations, this is par for the course (no pun intended). Most health code violations, even when severe, are looked past so long as the business “takes steps to rectify the issue”.

So for example, lets say you have a rat infestation so bad it presents a public health risk. If you hire a pest controller or put out some traps, then the health department will let it go. Even if the steps you take never actually solve the problem. Attempting to solve the problem is considered satisfactory, even if the problem continues to exist and present a threat.

Only in cases of the most extreme gross negligence have I ever seen any place shut down completely and forced to stop business operations until they turn it around. Sadly, 33%/100% on an assessment is probably not in “shut it down now” territory. Although I think everyone agrees that should be bad enough to shut something down, our health departments are kind of like the TSA of protecting you from foodborne illness and other dangers. They dont really stop things themselves so much as their existence tends to scare people into self-regulated compliance

E: I just checked to see what the actual violations were:

Among the violations at the Bedminster club were failing “all three requirements in the ‘food protected from contamination’ category, with violations including expired milk, raw meat stored improperly and a dishwasher that may not reach the required temperature,” noted the report. “The inspector also cited four separate hand-washing violations, including sinks without soap or paper towels, one lacking a required sign and another used to store a sanitizer bucket.”

I hate to burst anyones’ bubble, but these are things likely occurring at basically every place you have eaten at in the past year. Despite being the most basic compliance issues in food service. No one cares and the health department wont shut anyone down for these violations so long as they fix it now. Then they will go back to doing whatever in a month

Considering the long term goal for them is to have them in planes at 30k ft, im sure they are entirely designed with the idea of humidifying the air to an ideal point prior to it getting to the catalyst for the reaction

Im no chemical engineer from MIT, but I would assume that trace amounts of sodium hydroxide that are readily reacting into sodium bicarbonate well before they make it near the surface of the earth are probably not an issue of concern. Especially considering the acidification caused by traditional exhaust gasses

Humanity on the brink of capability to write half decent fucking article, scientists say

Its what they are about to do to her as well, as they already explicitly announced she will have to undergo this testing before her next competition, or she wont be allowed to fight

Yes but they still use what is effectively slave labor in those states as well, to make all kinds of stuff. Its only better in that they arent locked up for profit

Is there a reason you dont want to live in Wyoming? Wyoming is more reasonable to try and live in than Colorado, as is Montana (although only slightly less so in MT)
