YOLO court strikes again
YOLO court strikes again
Holy fuck! As if Citizens United wasn’t bad enough. Our government is fully for sale now.
Most countries have a functional mental health system. The US does not. We fail on both accounts.
There is a rule for gas stations that prices can only be changed once a day. Sounds like that would be a good start.
Donald Trump, the convicted felon who admits he still has a gun he has not surrendered as is required of convicted felons?
Bullshit. Your finger doesn’t move after the first pull. That makes it automatic by the legal definition. This is a bad ruling by “judges” who don’t deserve the honor of the name.
Gorsuch has a libertarian streak that leads him to side with individuals against the government. Bad when those individuals are a corporation, good when they are NA tribes.
American values? Can’t have that!
Like the separation of church and state?
Immigration? Come on in, we’ll worry about it later!
That’s how 99% of the country got here. It’s what made (and still makes) this country great. Incorporating people from around the world is an American value.
Trump is running again? Let’s do EVERYTHING and ANYTHING to stop him from campaigning!!
What about the American value of respecting law and order by not supporting a convicted felon for president?
Crime is getting worse? Let’s ease up on punishment! Crime isn’t getting worse.
Crime is actually going down.
Biological men want to compete with women in sports? Okay!
Accepting those with different beliefs and respecting the way they choose to live their life is another American value.
I’m not so sure. It’s MUCH harder to avoid punishment after you are convicted. Michael Cohen got 3 years for the exact same crime, plus he pled guilty and agreed to testify for a shorter sentence. Obviously Trump will appeal, but it’s entirely reasonable for the judge (who Trump has taken every opportunity to insult) to rule he must start serving his sentence while the appeal happens.
Can’t pardon himself from state crimes.
Now the judge who Trump has been royally pissing off the whole time gets to sentence him. If your justice boner lasts for more than 4 hours, please consult a doctor.
I know this isn’t the point of the article but 76 years seems like an absurdly long sentence. I just checked and the average time served for murder is 15 years.
When Republicans talk about free speech, this is what they mean.
Same. My dad dying and leaving me his house is the only way I was able to afford to stop renting and stop living paycheck to paycheck. A perk of being an only child I suppose.
Also in spite of what we learn on TV, matching a bullet to a gun is mostly junk science.
Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities has an episode with an Eldritch horror theme called Pickman’s Model. Crispin Glover does a super heavy Boston accent and it is fantastic.
Aww, look who is mad gun laws apply to white people too.
Take funding from the sheriff’s office and form a task force specifically assigned to tracking and retrieving illegal guns.
Maybe they are dropping the first and last letters from MAGA.
“America Great!!!”
