    It won’t come of anything. Biden is a coward.

    Amy Coney Barrett's daughter was just accepted as a legacy at Notre Dame.

    Forgive me if, after you questioned what Ahmed Arbery was doing jogging in an area when he was shot, I refuse to listen to ANYTHING at all you have to say about anything having to do with race.

    I’m a bit confused by all this . Who does this help/harm?

    SideNote: my daughter heads off to college in 3 weeks. One of the factors to her choosing the U of San Francisco was that it is top 5 most diverse campuses in the country. #1 a couple years ago. That’s important to us as a family.

    Just wondering how this impacts that?

    This is my hope. That we have enough people willing to support diversity that it's economic and social suicide to do otherwise.

    If she is already accepted, it won't affect her at all.

    Congrats btw, great accomplishment for her, and you as the parents! I used to live about a mile from USF. Great, vibrant neighborhood. Bet she loves it.

    My two fave restaurants there are House of Nanking on Kearney for Chinese, and the best tacos in SF imo are at San Jose Taqueria on 24th and Mission. I still go there whenever I get to the City. Mmmmm.

    On our visits there, we really loved the campus culture and the vibe.
