The chances that the people a lot of folks won’t make eye contact with at the offramp have a stronger moral compass than the people in power are even money or better
Interesting, because I am assured by people on both side sides of the aisle that homeless people are not a part of our society, but a social nuisance to be harassed and a great societal danger to be expunged.
A homeless man living in Brown University basement helped police identify the suspect in the campus shooting.

This is important for Blue states. Given the choice, and that's exactly what it is, a choice, of working in "lockstep" of SCOTUS' view of the federal constitution or the state's constitution, Hawaii's Supreme Court has decided to allow the state constitution to take the lead.
I was reminded today of one of my favorite stories we did this year: on how Hawaii's Supreme Court keeps releasing opinions that denounce the U.S. Supreme Court. boltsmag.org/hawaii-supre...
Hawaii Supreme Court Expands Rights of Defendants, and Once Again Rebukes SCOTUS - Bolts
The justices ruled that Hawaii’s constitution requires police to record interrogations. And they vowed to protect due process for Hawaii residents—unlike, they said, the Roberts Court.
