Am I real? My replaced joints (knees mostly) demand attention, so I guess at least those bits of me include observable reality. I try not to fake my thoughts, too. YMMV.

Technically yes, but ergot has 2 precursers from which LSD can be derived.

I don't know what is worse, the idea that this was motivated by horrible racism or a level of stupidity I didn't want to think existed.

What I don’t understand is why him being Polish or Mexican matters at all in the context of the scenario. Legit the title could’ve read “tourist hit with stick and heckled for illegally climbing stone monument” and I think we’d have all been fine

Reply to comment by eighty2angelfan in Arizona House bill would allow pregnant drivers to use HOV lane by ForkzUp
Ideally, it shouldn't matter if the fetus is identified as a person or not. I consider it a person, however undeveloped, but that is irrelevant to why abortions should be legal. It's unfortunate that law requires linguistic gymnastics to function.
Further, I think there is a way to argue for a new/separate definition of person. A corporation is a person, a government is a person. There are many definitions of person in the Oxford English Dictionary, which is only one source. A linguist would know that definition is experiential and subjective to an individual or collective, at least in English; therefore, there is endless room for even more "official" definitions of the word.
Basically, this is the general line of argument that may avoid prescribing fetuses as the same definition of "person" as an already born individual. One would need to articulate exactly what the difference is just like one articulates the difference between a corporation being a "person" and a human being a "person."
With that difference in mind, one cannot call the end of a corporation, however it may occur, 1st degree murder.
Hope this gives people some hope that things can turn out differently if we use the right methods.

Would the balloon just rip apart if it got punctured or could they have punctured the balloon and let it slowly deflate with smaller caliber guns?

There exists at least one USA church with peyote as its sacrament. Look to the future! Psychedelic fungi, herbs, and cacti for all! If one or more deities reside within us, feed them well... or else...

True. I climbed it. (Actually, I walked right up like climbing a mall's stationary escalator. Easy, NBD. Then I turned around and saw the steps from the top. I looked around and took a bunch of pictures. Then I eventually got my nerves together and descended by scooting down on my butt… one step at a time.) I even bought the CD of pictures the guide took of me there.
So, yeah, not so sacred, but I do see how people could get hurt.
