Academia, however, is ground zero in the war against people whose ideas go against the current political correctness. The virtual monopoly of the political left, on campuses across the country, allows all sorts of things to be attributed to people the left disagrees with, irrespective of whether those people have ever said anything resembling what they are alleged to have said.
The professors don’t usually riot against people whose ideas they disagree with, because they can just dismiss those ideas, with some characterization that there is no one on hand to challenge.
I'm not a lawyer, but I questioned the need for this law, which allows tax-payer funded agencies, like foster-care and adoption agencies, to refuse to provide service for members of the LGBT community.
At first, I wondered why they needed this law. Since SD doesn't recognize sexual orientation/gender identity as protected status. (I don't recognize gender identity either. You get what you're born with. Medical technology, at its present state, cannot change this.)
Now I'm wondering if the purpose is to simply prevent those of the LGBT community from taking their complaints to court, denying courts the opportunity to rule in favor of the LGBT community.
But if this case ever makes its way to SCOTUS, the precedent set by Obergefell vs Hodges (which is actually a disagree with) will undoubtedly strike this down.

Senate Bill 807, introduced by Democratic Sens. Henry Stern of Los Angeles and Cathleen Galgiani of Stockton, offers an incentive for teachers to remain in the classroom. After teaching for five years, California educators would be exempt from paying a state income tax. The bill would also provide a tax deduction for the cost of attaining a teaching credential. The Legislature has not yet calculated the estimated loss in tax revenue to the state if the measure is approved.
Nearly a third of the 1,000 FBI domestic terrorism cases – 300 – involve those admitted to the U.S. as refugees, a Department of Homeland Security official said Monday. That number was confirmed later in the day by Attorney General Jeff Sessions during a news conference. Officials said some of those 300 came to “infiltrate” the U.S., while others were radicalized once they were in the country.
Democrat Tim Kaine thinks the below protest actions are "peaceful".
"After setting off fireworks and smoke bombs inside the capitol, one of which allegedly struck a Trump supporter in the head, the six “peaceful” protestors fled the scene."
There will be no new Civil War, no blue-state exit, red-state exit, secession, revolution, La Raza takeover of the southwest, white supremacist takeover of the northwest, no creation of a black-only nation-within-a-nation, or anything else that fractures the Union.
No President would allow any of it.

Andy Stanley on refugees. More toothy than his normal stuff, but you'll see why. The best explanation of the crisis and what the role of Christians should be.
The move to do away with the test has been met with mixed reviews. Supporters of the exam say that eliminating it could put weak teachers in the classroom, while critics argue the test is confusing, redundant and a poor predictor of who will succeed as a teacher.
"(I don't recognize gender identity either. You get what you're born with. Medical technology, at its present state, cannot change this.)"
Apparently, this needs clarification. The finest hospital on the planet stuggled with this for many years before discovering that external characteristics could be altered, but not internal. Yes, American doctors operated on infants and toddlers to assign gender.
Note that I do not endorse the slightest diminution of your rights as a citizen because of your build order.

Seekers! Don't be afraid here in the New Age. There's a Seeker born every minute!
It's not medicine because he is only the conduit to the healing source, which is you, and your wallet is the conduit to the conduit, which is him, and it's just an exchange of karmic energy which we, as inhabitants of these crude physical bodies and limited intellect, call "cash" for lack of a better term.
