Attention, Dallas Morning News copy editors/page designers:
Cars don’t kill people, car drivers do, unless an unattended car has its “Park” lock shear off or something.
And, it takes two people to byline a story that short? Is this make-work before the next layoff ax?
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
