I see a lot of other people have responded with examples and argument.

So I'll disagree and say the argument falls apart when I don't argue. (Cause it's Friday. You ain't got no job. You ain't got shit to do. I'm gonna get you high today.)

Hmm I see what the dictionaries are saying but (using an example from above) I think argument exists that:

If me and my fellow protestors block a road, we are being non-violent, but we are not being peaceful.

But it's Friday and no time for argument!

Early to mid 20th century??! Dang, double space was seemingly still very much in fashion even after Y2K. Welp, gotta go yell at some kids on my lawn.

Why so serious citizen?

Remember when Trump moved the US embassy to Jerusalem declaring Jerusalem the capital of Israel? People are kill-informed if they think things get better for the Palestinians under Trump 2.0.

No phones on in classrooms during class. What parent would not be on board?

In the US, know that insurance companies hire private investigators to follow and video people making injury claims. Especially higher dollar ones.

Maybe we should be seeing the realities of the world, even the horrors. It's a lot easier to support things like war if you've never witnessed the brutality. This person was making a political statement by setting themself on fire. I imagine they wanted people to see.

I'd argue that for most of the US it is necessary to have a car. We just have adequate public transport. I'd much prefer that we did, but currently we do not. I suspect one could take an aerial photo of many arenas/stadiums located in densely populated cities in the US and they do not have much parking either.

I've never known "college town" to be used as a denigration, though sometimes students from big cities who go to school in college towns are eager to return to what those big cities have to offer and perhaps don't enjoy the college town vibe as much as others.
