It sounds like routine traffic stops just got a little more dangerous for cops...

After Alabama law, Hispanic kids being bullied

Before Alabama law, Hispanic kids being bullied
Quote:

"We're hearing a number of reports about increases in bullying that we're studying," the head of the agency's civil rights division, Thomas Perez, said Officials would not provide a breakdown on the types of complaints being received.
Yet the Alabama Department of Education hasn't received any reports of bullying linked to the law, said spokeswoman Malissa Valdes, and it isn't tracking the issue
Quote:

Immigrants tell of dirty looks in grocery stores, and online forums are full of angry, anonymous comments from both supporters and opponents of the law.
It goes on and on.
Aside from the headline, I don't see anything in that article that proves anything has changed since the law was enacted.
Seems like a rather partisan headline with zero to back it up.

Guns are good, that is why we carry them.

That is why Holder, et. al. should go to prison.

Maybe guns are not necessary to solve such problems...

Last line of 'bee-fence': Farmers protect against elephant attacks using beehives
Quote:

A biologist who invented a fence of beehives to reduce clashes between humans
and elephants has been presented with a prestigious award by the United Nations.

Dr Lucy King developed the fence after studying elephants' fear of being stung by bees.
Her invention stops the mighty animals from walking into farm land
because they are so scared of the stinging insects.

The fences were built with one beehive every 10 metres and
the project found that an elephant attempting to enter a farm would
instinctively try to bypass the beehive.

Oh, that should work well on our border....
