Nothing to do with the Country. Individual States can do as they choose. Nobody will be more than a $30 bus trip from a legal abortion.

Sure, because that's normal. And also not counting the states that are actually going to try and make traveling out of state for an abortion illegal. And also entirely besides the main points.

Sex education in schools? Kinda outdated idea when teenagers can find all the information and then some online? :p

Yes, because porn is known to be a reliable form of sex education :)

Who says anything about reliability? Teenagers getting pregnant is old news. :lol:

Yes, but that doesn't mean it's a good idea to get rid of sexual education. That's like saying "children are going to be shot in school anyway, why try to do something against the ease with which any psycho can get a weapon?".

Teenagers getting pregnant is a global theme. School mass shootings is almost endemic to USA and their crazy gun culture (and holding on to laws from 1791 :lol:). If Americans want to live in 18th century reality then it makes sense sexual education gets removed from schools as well :old:

Holding on to laws from 1791 isn't so much the problems. The problem is the crazy interpretations!

What else do you expect from a country where the same two parties are holding power for 160 years? :lol: And they keep telling us it's the best democracy in the world. Talk to the hand :wacko:

Turkey back Sweden’s and Finland’s NATO bids. Now the question is what Sweden and Finland needed to do to be accepted by the terror country Turkey? It’s Turkey that shouldn’t be a member in NATO. :facepalm:

    • hmm - aren't Australia and New Zealand the only nations that actually compete in the Oceania Cup?
    • If Australia and New Zealand earn quotas through Pro League, then does that mean 3rd placed team from Oceania Cup takes quota? 
    • Right now russians themselves metioned that they have 2 main options for women`s quota: - Peklecova will was not included into the international doping testing pool (RUSADA is still incompliant after that scandal) - D.Nepryaeva had training camps at the occupied territories - it is the best way to avoid of the international doping testing at all     P.S. Little detail - according to Vaelbe 90% of russian skiera are contracted with russian army or other security services.
    • We had no real problems with russians for a long time. It was a normal sport rivalry. It was common case that statues of russian politicians and poets remained in place even in the Western Ukraine which was joined by the Soviet Union much later. Lyskun was pro-Ukrainian according to her statement but she kept conctcts with her former coach. That coach moved to russia earlier and could do some brainwashing. I would say that the coach may have financial motivation to do this. By the way we had similar case with Bondar from Luhansk who moved to russia in 2014. What is really interesting - russians have a lot of resources but it took them 4 yeats to find someone relatively well-known in sport area to stage this propaganda performance.       Yes, this web-site is active and maintained. The list is beeing updated. But it is not an official goverment resource and it is operated by the non-goverment organization. It was created to draw attention of the national security services to the activities of some people and provide some initial foundations for further formal investigations.
    • AIN's will skipped (they got American visa too late) 2nd WC stage (but their could compete in 3rd WC stage) and, therefore, their chances to got more than 1 entry in OG have become lower, especially,  if their will not allow to compete in Sigulda (but after their participation in Poland's short-track WT stage, I won't give 100% chances for that).   Maybe problem with entries will be solved by itself)
    • You prefer matches in USA , look at that ...    Tourists to US would have to reveal five years of social media activity under new Trump plan to enter    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/dec/10/tourists-social-media-trump
    • I would say - he did not share some part of "the profit" with someone from above )
    • Yeah, a complete failure all around. Only two individual quotas for men and two for women + mixed relay. Cortina looks like a big fat zero in the medal table tbh.
    • But yeah, as you said, their intention (if I have to guess) probably is to prevent Pan America from having 3 teams without going through the world oqt.  They were generous with the world cup qualification because it's in europe and with 16 teams but they won't be as much with their prime event.   Anyway, this doc is terribly written and could bring problems without an update.
    • IDK this seems like a big mistake on their part. They should have excluded Pan America from the first clause.    And also shoulda clarify if "highest placed" in the second statement means only champion or "highest placed not counting possible pro league qualified teams".
