I once had to move out of a flat I was living in at really short notice. I was struggling health wise and financially and couldn't keep on top of my rent. My flatmate replaced me, with his best friend and a guy I knew really well and also was working with at the time. My flatmate asked me if it was possible to continue paying the rent out of my account for the remainder of our lease (to avoid making changes to it for the last two months of the contract) and have this guy pay into my account rather than the landlords directly. I said sure, whatever. My flatmate had been very accomodating and I wanted to do what I could to help him, so I kept my direct debit to our landlord, on the condition that this guy recover the money. That only resulted in me paying out over £600, that I didn't have, and waiting nearly a year to get £300 of that back. I had to move out because I couldnt afford the damn rent and then I ended up paying it anyway, making my financial problems even worse, to the point they were really crippling. To this day he still owes me some of that money. Quote:

The little kids are the best part of my job. Teaching in the classroom with the kids is my favourite part of the day. It's all the extra, bureaucratic crap that comes with it and creates the pressure, stress, long hours, & extra work that has nothing to do with the kids that I hate

Balls. I guess I swallowed weird, cause a muscle in my throat spasmed or something and now there's a little spot that hurts whenever I swallow. It's happened before and it always lasts all day and possibly the day after. It's not horribly painful or anything, but it's annoying. My grandparents are taking me to dinner tonight, and I'm probably gonna have a rare-as-**** hamburger with more blood than a virgin on her wedding night, and now I've got this bull****.

Meanwhile, Zimmerman got angry over mistreatment of a homeless black man: Tape showed Zimmerman's anger over black man's beating - CNN.com Meanwhile, according to a lot of people, and assumingly testimony, his prom date was black. Had a black business partner. He helped out underprivileged black kids in his neighborhood. Oh, and his brother is a registered Democrat and supports Obama. This doesn't sound like their parents infected them with any racism. My parents are somewhat racist. I'm not. So I don't want to hear any arguments about, "Well if the parents are racist, the kids will be too!". Because that would make a whole lot of racists out of a whole lot of people whose parents grew up back in the day where that sort of thing was prevalent...

You wanted a link Freebase and I gave you one. Sure it had a rumor but it wasn't about the initial thing that I was talking about. The specific emails that showcase his racism.

Anyway, about the profiling thing, this brings up an interesting concept I was thinking about last night as I watched a video on LiveLeak involving an older White man having the cops called on him because he was sitting in the park watching his grandchildren play. The cops gave him some grief before finally walking away. The man was understandably outraged at being profiled as a pedophile for being old and white near a playground, however, what made the entire thing bizarre was the majority of the comments on the video... To sum it up, most people felt like it was a justified action, due to the safety concerns for children. No one was really outraged at the profiling. In fact, they supported it. However, if we change tracks here, would people feel the same way if a cop stopped a black teen that was lurking suspiciously on a street known for black on black gun violence just to make sure he wasn't planning on shooting someone? I think not. What are your thoughts on this?

Also in that made up scenario, the cop wouldn't even stop the kid. he would probably sit in his squad car for a bit and watch him but he'd probably just wait til the aftermath of whatever the kid does to get involved.
