He said he’d seen a splash guard that used a derogatory term for black children…”

Can someone help me out here? I’ve heard several derogotory terms for blacks, but cannot recall any particular term for black children.

A catholic wishing to not eat meat (non-fish meat anyway) is free to observe this dietary restriction any friday in prison he wishes. His observance of a self imposed restriction in no way imposes requirements upon his hosts. If the muslim does not care for the manner in which his meat was prepared (assuming that it meets secular standards for wholesomness, dietary balance, and adequate caloric intake) then he may eschew it. His right to a particular style of preparation is no greater than mine (medium rare, crushed black pepper and blue cheese sause please.)

The amendment was rejected 31-19 in the Arizona House ” 19 voted for it?

The funny thing is they are starting to appear in Europe although mainly on smaller private vans and trucks.
