“He is using the truth to tell a lie,” Miller says of Trump. “Or at the very least to mislead
It's more than a little ironic that the Professor would say something like that since that's exactly what he's doing.
He is right on one thing, the research is clear. It's a racial group's rate of violent crime that is ultimately the determining factor in the rate of police shootings. That's been confirmed by multiple studies time and time again, yet because it destroys the narrative it's ignored.

They can have all the votes they want, Puerto Rico isn't becoming a State anytime soon. Congress would have to approve it (which isn't going to happen), and the President would have to sign off on it (which isn't going to happen). So their vote is purely symbolic.

Please Guardian, keep telling us how a militant Bernie Sanders supporter is doing this because of Donald Trump- a man who he said he would gladly murder.

I know you and I disagree on ideology most of the time but this isn't even ideological, it's basic fact.
If you can't understand the difference between the McDonald's Corporation (MCD), and the individual franchise owners (franchising being one of the most common business models on the planet), as distinctly separate entities, then none of the rest matters. And the fact that you would say something as ridiculously absurd as: "Franchisees aren’t struggling. Fast food franchises make tons of money, apart and aside from their sheer money laundering capacity" is pretty indicative that you're well out of your depth here.

Oh Adelle, that's what I love about you: you never let facts get in the way of a narrative.
First off, McDonald's Corporate (MCD), which is who you're complaining about and who the people in the article are protesting, isn't in the restaurant business anymore. They haven't been for a long time. MCD is in the franchising and licensing business. Worldwide over 80% of McDonald's restaurants are franchises (meaning they're owned by a private owner, not MCD), and in the US that number is over 90%. Of those franchises, the vast majority are small business owners who own 1 - 3 locations and who are, themselves, just trying to get by. So the notion that MCD isn't paying workers enough is absurd because those people don't work for MCD!
Second, it's absolutely up to me to decide who is, or is not, qualified to work for me. As for having kids too soon, or having loose ends, that is, again, they're problem. I'm not responsible for the life choices of the people who work for me, nor am I responsible for the circumstances of their life. If you had bothered to actually read the "stealing" article you linked you would've noticed that it wasn't MCD that got in trouble it was a private franchise owner who got busted (and deservedly so), but hey who needs facts, right?
My personal favorite is the "bloodsucking" argument. It takes a special kind of delusional arrogance to consider the Government being required to support Government programs "bloodsucking". If the Walmarts in your article were suddenly replaced by a collection of small businesses, what do think would be any different? The economic realities of those communities are what they are independent of Walmart, so those Governments would still be paying for all of those same programs if it was 10 smaller stores instead of 1 large one. You think if there was some Mom & Pop grocery store in there people would be making $20 hr stocking shelves? Are you high?
On a technical note, none of the videos you linked would play here on Snapzu. I had to open them in separate tabs. I'm not sure if that's by design or not, but I just thought it was worth mentioning.

And I think if you ever hired them, you would fell a responsibility
Yes, I do feel a sense of responsibility for my employees, all of them.
I've got a few hundred people who are relying on me to keep my business running, not only because they need to make ends meet, but because they want to buy houses, and start families, and take vacations, and send their kids to college, and retire someday. All of that is predicated on me being able to keep the business open and profitable. "That's my responsibility to my employees.

Many "not us" are doing everything they can to just make ends, the bills, that ladder never ends.
Okay, fair enough. Do me a favor though, explain to me why- as a business owner, that's my problem.
If an adult finds themselves in a situation where the only job they're capable of getting, and holding, is a minimum wage job at my fast food restaurant then that's unfortunate, but it's not my problem. I'm not responsible for the choices they've made that have led them to that point, nor am I responsible for the circumstances of their life that led them to make those particular choices. So why is it my responsibility as a business owner to subsidize either their poor choices or their bad luck?
