100 Percent

It seems obvious to me at this point that e-voting is problematic at best. I hold the same opinion of it as I do the death penalty: if we cannot guarantee a 100% reliable and foolproof result 100% of the time, across the board in every city, every county and every state then it should not be used in any city, any county or any state.
Thanks, DF.

Sentences Vary When Kids Die in Hot Cars

Mothers are more likely to do time Seems a bit unfair. I can’t imagine anyone’s life after having their child die like this. Even if you don’t do time, well, the punishment you receive will last a lifetime. Sad.

This is a surprising bit from the article as well: The correlation between the rise in these deaths and the 1990s move to put children in the back seat is striking.
