For some people coming over the border, this might not be much of a deterrent, giving how many rights inmates have in this country.

Are you implying that Sojourning is lying? If so, I think you are just bitter 'cause he scored higher than you. ;)

He is going to fan the flames of the culture wars! :D

I see so many things in there that I like. Not sure what the objective measure for 'unconstitutional' is in this case:



I mean, if people thought they were unconstitutional, wouldn't they take that to a court to decide? How is it decided what is unconstitutional or not, otherwise?

Unless maybe he is saying: "We will use our own opinions as to what is not constitutional, because the courts have allowed things they shouldn't have"

YES!!!

Obviously he means enacting these *specific* policies.

As in: How did we come to 2016 and not have done this already? Why did we need Trump?

The first two sound spectacular to me, but this one is strangely worded:



I mean, I agree with the *point* of it, but as worded it seems stupid and naive. Anyone who has ever worked with a lawyer or a politician knows that this is useless. A 'regulation' is a kind of 'unit' of policy-making-language. If you impose any kind of numeric restriction on them, "they" will just scale the unit. They'll just change the way they count the regulations. I mean, the division of policy language into discrete units of 'regulations' is often arbitrary to begin with.

You can see this for yourself be comparing the local ordinances of two neighboring towns. They often mimic each other, but organize their policies into ordinances differently, sometimes grouping certain ideas together and sometimes breaking them out into separate ordinances.

I'd be curious to see if the Trump people formalize this into something meaningful.

"21. Which of the following is NOT one of the three major branches of government?"

Well, in theory at least! Up until this week, those folks seemed to act as a branch of the government.

"12. How many times may a senator be re-elected?"

Hopefully this answer will change, if Trump executes his plan to "Drain the Swamp!"

It seems like most of the young "educated" Hillary supporters are really just "indoctrinated". They are trained to become skilled writers and proselytizers, but not skilled thinkers.

THANK YOU AMERICA!

I'm in California where the universities indoctrinate the youth into insane, fascist perversions of liberalism. Most people here believe the media's lies, and they despise Trump with a passion.

So I was hugely relieved to see large swaths of America making the right decision on Tuesday night!

Thank you, thank you, thank you to all of the independents, conservatives, libertarians, and rationally-minded liberals across the country who voted for Trump and saved our country from a Hillary Presidency!

Wikileaks deserves props for this also. I think she would have won, if we didn't have all that concrete evidence for how terrible she, and the people close to her, really are.

Well the time has come!!

Our country would be a better place if all these folks would follow through with their 'threats' to leave.

"Flouride" is no more an industrial waste than "copper" or "iron". The fluoride used in some water supplies does come from industrial waste, but that flouride is actually SAFER than naturally occuring fluoride specifically because the quantity is carefully regulated.


Also, fluoride is effective in reducing the risk of cavities.



"Cancer" is not a disease, but a category of diseases. Some are well understood, others are not. Some of the ways to beat cancer involve lifestyle changes which too many people are unwilling to make.

We may eventually beat all forms of cancer, after we have a much more advanced understanding of genetics and go farther with genetically engineering our children.



This is, sadly, completely false.



There are lots of examples in support of your claim. Or, more accurately, intentional shortage-making plays a *role*.




To some degree, but nationalism and religiosity still play their roles.



Sigh.



Completely agree! Well, technically many companies die - but if they grow large enough they can manipulate the world (particularly politicians) to all but guarantee their artificial longevity.



This is only part of the story. It has also been constructed to keep us alive and satisfy our collective urges.

If HRC is less popular when seeking office, this is likely due to the scrutiny to which she is subject when she is seeking office. There is absolutely no reason to assume that sexism has anything to do with it.

Just looked at the start of this thread and saw:



Why is this statement included in a comment about HRC?

I don't know if its true that women find self promotion more difficult than men do - if it is true, its probably one of the many reasons that women (in general) choose to make less than men do (in general).

But HRC clearly has no trouble promoting herself. The problem is, the modern internet era makes it so much harder to hide the facts and to control the message.

Free will is almost certainly an illusion, but maintaining this illusion is necessary for our society to function and for our individual psychological well being.

I agree that there are good people, with good intentions, getting good results who are involved in the BLM movement.

(I don't take your word for it that these cold cases are *actually* open *because* of BLM, simply because you are hugely biased and BLM leaders are fond of taking credit which they don't deserved, but I see that its possible)




"Organize against death" sure some people are, but this isn't representative of BLM. If they stepped back and asked themselves "How can we prevent death?" the first thing they'd do is form closer relationships with the police, and do everything they can to work together with the police. The police are the organization that is actively working to prevent death. Some of the BLM protesters actually promote murder. Protesting police shootings without enough evidence to know what happened, protesting the shootings in which the cops made the right call, and lying to angry black youth who then start riots - all of these things promote death.




You haven't heard about the strides they've made? They've inspired people to kill cops. The increase in murders of cops is a huge victory for some BLM activists.

That has nothing to do with it. Like so many SJW 'values', the doctrine of 'lived experiences' is about denying accountability, avoiding facts, avoiding the truth, and silencing dissenting viewpoints.

We'd like to believe that its about listening to people, trying to understand their point of view, having empathy and compassion; but it simply isn't. BLM activists and other SJWs have shown this again and again.

Of course it means something. It doesn't mean that its impossible for a jury to be wrong, but for it still means a great deal. Its even more so when they trial is highly publicized and scrutinize and mobs of irrational people are poised to riot if they don't get the verdict they want.

And in that particular case, much of the trial could be found on youtube. Its obvious that zimmerman wasn't guilty.
