The Stand in the Schoolhouse Door took place at Foster Auditorium at the University of Alabama on June 11, 1963. In a symbolic attempt to keep his inaugural promise of "segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever" and stop the desegregation of schools, George Wallace, the Democratic Governor of Alabama, stood at the door of the auditorium as if to block the way of the two African American students attempting to enter: Vivian Malone and James Hood.[1]

This was before the Southern Strategy, in which the Republicans took over as the preeminent supporters of overt racism.

CatJesus died for your sins, friend.

I only know this bc of the version by Lard.

Gandalf messed up big time, going to the hobbits. He shoulda gone to the gnomes.

I read that when a cat squints at you, it actually means they trust you, i.e. they don't have to stay alert around you.

I think this illustration is in reference to the following:

The first target of the rebels was the former capital of the Trinovantes, Camulodunum (Colchester), which had been made into a colonia for Roman military veterans. These veterans had been accused of mistreating the locals. A huge temple to the former emperor Claudius had also been erected in the city at great expense to the local population, causing much resentment.[13] The future governor Quintus Petillius Cerialis, then commanding the Legio IX Hispana, attempted to relieve the city, but suffered an overwhelming defeat. The infantry with him were all killed and only the commander and some of his cavalry escaped.[14] The location of this battle is unknown.[15]

The Roman inhabitants sought reinforcements from Catus Decianus, but he sent only two hundred auxiliary troops. Boudica's army attacked the poorly defended city and destroyed it, besieging the last defenders in the temple for two days before it fell. Archaeologists have shown that the city was methodically demolished.[16]

OP is clearly trolling, but this is the most balanced take on the article.

Reflect on yourself first

Agreed. The article mentioned a "Biblical perspective", and I vaguely remember something about Jesus saying if your eye offends you pluck it out. He didn't actually make his disciples pluck out their eyes tho, I think he was saying if there's a problem it's with the viewer, not the observed.

I dunno about them in particular, but in general half a million Germans emigrated to the US between the world wars.

Maybe it's bc I've been doing a lot of proofreading recently, but the first thing I noticed was reference to "the Battle of Dover Straight" instead of Strait.

The cops raid the place with a similar device and find absolutely nothing.

Awesome, looking forward to it! Thanks for your hard work!

When I was in high school one lunchtime I was sitting there reading sci fi by myself like a total nerd and some other kids were sitting nearby and they started smoking cigarettes, which was against the rules. Anyway a teacher saw them just as the lunch period ended and the teacher said: "all right You, You, You, and You stay behind!" And the teacher pointed at me, because I was nearby. I was like: wow, I haven't been in trouble before! I was writing a lot of short fiction and poetry at the time so I thought it'd be a good experience. So I sat there and listened for a while as the teacher berated the kids. But eventually I realized I'd gotten all I was gonna get from this teacher's unimaginative lecture, so I stood up and was like: I gotta go to class. The teacher glared at me and was gonna go off, but the other kids were cool, they were like nah he wasn't a part of this. The teacher looked at me, looked at my sci fi book, looked at me again, then realized yeah these kids would never have anything to do with this dork. So they let me run off to class.
