You know this is correct

Actually it's not correct to call this trespassing. They are not standing on private property, this is not trespassing.

What if it's their lawn? Is it trespassing to look over the fence? I'm genuinely asking I'm not familiar with the rules of pro sports

7 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 1

Pro Sports has tried to stop it...but they can't if its setup that way. See Wrigley Field.

I would download a car. I would also look over a fence to watch a game. I wish they still made blackboxes for tv.

Wanna point out that the past the fence is trespassing so they’re fine

Or just keep watching for free. It happens at Wrigley. MLB tried to make the super lock the door to the roof of the apartments. Court ruled

Against MLB stating basically if the owner wants to let their tenants on the roof that is their choice and their building.

They are standing outside the fence, so don't really think its correct..

Dont forget the third panel - integration - with the chickenwire fence they can all use without any problems or need for special assistance.

This is about addressing needs, not wants. That's what so many of the MAGA and MRA morons don't seem to comprehend.

The original has just the three people and the fence. A modified version has a chain link fence. This is just someone ripping that off.

Look, even if they were standing there, that fence would still be there, so we can't blame them for using it.

Equality doesn't work that way anyway. It's not about treating people the same it's about giving an equal chance.

7 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 6

Equity is about giving everyone an equal chance. Equality is about treating everyone the same, regardless of situation.

7 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 2

No it isn't. Equality doesn't mean treating everyone the same. It is giving everyone an equal chance. Allowing a disabled person to park

Closer to a shop, because able bodied people can walk further with less pain/restrictions. This is equality. It isn't treating everyone the

I'm not sure if it's an American thing but in the UK I have never heard of the term Equity used like this. We would call it equality.

How is it trespassing when your still on your side of the fence?

I love the implication in the original picture that life is like watching a sports match – you're just a passive observer. Makes sense, yo.

Anyone who thinks the original cartoon is in anyway deep, meaningful, or profound most likely believes that wholeheartedly.

You still make decisions in your life and act them out, you're not a passive observer unless you're terminally ill or something like that.

equity is not what we need. not our fault some people are not good at math for example. and i wouldnt want some1 bad at math become engineer

since lives depends on the bridge and street designs they make. so equality is good, equity, isnt

7 years ago | Likes 15 Dislikes 19

People aren't equal and equality rarely equivocates fairness. Not sure how that relates to becoming an engineer without qualifications lol

7 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

This is a fallacious argument, and you know it. For example, nobody is suggesting that a person with a palsy be a surgeon either.

7 years ago | Likes 16 Dislikes 5

Equity is not about letting an unqualified person build a bridge. It's about recognizing some people's basic needs can't be met w/o help.1/

As an educator, we help struggling kids more. This isn't equal, but it's equitable because we're trying to get them to a basic level. 2/

I'll mention that we need a lot more effort in helping gifted kids move forward faster too, but no $$ are being allocated by the gov. 3/3

What actual real-world idea are you talking about that will make people bad at math into engineers who build bridges for the public?

7 years ago | Likes 13 Dislikes 1

As i understand it, equity is making sure the outcome for all is the same.

So is there an actual program that forces grossly incompetent engineers into bridge building? Or is that just an unfounded concern?

Saying "for example" doesn't make something a valid example. I don't see that you've provided any specific examples of actual programs.
