An excerpt from an instruction given to juries in Massachusetts:
"All people deserve fair and equal treatment in our system of justice regardless of their race, national origin, religion, age, ability, gender, sexual orientation, education, income level, or any other personal characteristic."

Thinking today about all my #patients who tell me they can’t take even one day off work after they’re diagnosed with #cancer
Reflecting on how often the treatment plan has to accommodate the patient’s need to continue to work (in the U.S.)
And this was before the intentional #dismantling of the minimal services available to help
Worried about what’s to come
Meanwhile, from the Fox Ministry of Truth ... a leak!
Bravo, Senator Booker! Thanks, #GQP #media for noticing.... now if only We the People had sane, non-#cult 'representatives' before the eyes of the world, our selves, our G/d(s) if we have one (or more) #Respect .... Booker is trying to draw our miniscule attention to: #democracy #law #decency
Meanwhile, in the U.S. #Senate...
Remember them? The ones who gave us this #ClownCar Cabinet of #TrumpVirus

Call in your representative and remind him, that McCarthy's Red Scare was put to bed by a very obvious question:
"Let us not assassinate [our nation] further, senator [...]/ [Congressperson ...].
[Trump + MAGA] have done enough.
Have you [OR we] no sense of decency, sir, at long last?
Have you [IOR we] left no sense of decency?"

Somebody put this in English speech using Churchill voice.
Thank you Senator for your direct, clear, honourable honest assessment.
Merci, sénateur Claude Malhuret, de votre évaluation directe, claire, honorable et honnête.
#paulkrugman"Trump personally loathes #Canada, a nation most of the world stereotypes as “nice.” Obviously not every Canadian is a nice person. But Canadians are relatively courteous on average, and the country’s social and economic policies are relatively decent by international standards."

Bill aims to curb doxxing of minors by adults in Maine
The proposed bill would prohibit the doxxing of a minor and authorize related civil action against adult perpetrators.
by Leeann Stapleton
March 3, 2025
AUGUSTA, Maine — "Maine lawmakers are considering an #AntiDoxxing bill that was introduced in an effort to protect minors from adults online.
"#LD537 refers to the term 'doxxing,' which means to share someone's personal information usually with malicious intent.
"The anti-doxxing bill was submitted to the legislature in December 2024 by Democratic Rep. Melanie Sachs of Freeport and other state lawmakers.
"Sachs said this particular bill stems from an incident in 2023 involving a Freeport minor being targeted online by an adult.
"After looking further into that incident, Sachs said she observed Maine did not have the resources to deal with doxxing.
"The proposed bill would prohibit adults from sharing or posting personal identifying information of a minor with the intent to cause fear or harm to the child or their relatives.
"Recently, a #transgender teen from Greely won a state track title. The student-athlete became the center of conversation on #TransgenderPeople in girls' and women's sports in Maine after state Rep. #LaurelLibby made a social media post about it. State House lawmakers voted to censure Libby last week over the post.
"Sachs said LD 537 was already in the works and submitted before the February incident occurred.
"'I put in this bill last year, not to remedy any one situation but to find relief for any situation where an adult doxxes a child,' Sachs said. 'We should not have to legislate #decency, but in this day and age, it is really important for all of us to come together, regardless of what the issue is, to say adults should not doxx children, period.'
"A public hearing on LD 536 was held Monday morning in Augusta."

To end #poverty and #hunger, and to protect #nature and thus our #life, we basically need something very simple: good will.
Unfortunately, this trait has now joined the list of dying characteristics. There it is in illustrious company. Even #decency, #reason, #respect and #consideration are sluggishly heading towards their end.
Stephen Wertheim: "The United States pays a real cost when it puts itself at odds with the overwhelming majority of the world’s countries at the United Nations — whether to uphold its embargo on Cuba, shield Israel from accountability, or now fail to condemn Russia’s aggression against Ukraine." #politics #decency
space.
Fix it.
Become aware of your words. Because we all have the ability and the obligation to fight for the future of our children with simple moments. And we need to consciously choose to be better for them.”

As I gradually see past my own gullibility, it seems our #ND community is an oasis of #honesty & #decency* in the barren desert of NT-world. Am I right, or just getting old?

Do yourself a little favour. If you have a shred of #decency #selflove starts within and moves out to those immediately around you. It’s infectious. #community #love #unity #graffiti (not me) . Pink is appropriate in this otherwise bleak image. I stand with #myeyesopened. #photography
I'm getting to the point of wondering whether it might be necessary to actually point out that basic human #decency is worthwhile? #Trump #DonaldTrump
Language is a bit florid — but that's a style choice. Suggest you read @JuliusGoat about believing your own eyes or going along with the crowd (probably the thought of many Germans who did not consider themselves complicit in the early — and even later — days of Nazi Germany) and decency — Reverend Marion Edgar Budde — making the right choices (rather than choosing to follow the far right).
