Good point! Of course, some will still call it “weaponizing the justice system” and/or “lawfare”.
This would be a relatively harmless and clear-cut opportunity for another Republican to step up and show they have some standards. Ahem.

Thank you. I couldn’t quite nail down what was fundamentally bothering me about that statement, but you did it for me!
I think you’re right. I also think that’s the real reason some conservatives hate college and cities. Living in close proximity to others exposes you to different perspectives, and (hopefully) teaches you that other points of view aren’t automatically wrong. Different isn’t necessarily bad. Your parents, and the values you grew up with, don’t have the solution to everything. Lines are much harder to draw.
I don’t like it either, but pretending differences don’t exist won’t make those differences go away.
I hope he desperately needs their sympathy and compassion someday.
This is what separates people like us from people like them: empathy
In Texas? I’ll hope for it, but I won’t hold my breath.
“I’ve had three clients who would’ve had income that would’ve meant they’d have the millionaires tax every year, and all three of them have left for Florida,” Matthew Erskine, a Worcester-based estate attorney, said in an interview.
If they’re leaving for Florida, they’re idiots and/or assholes anyway. I don’t see a downside.
Because of course he did.
It takes a while to learn, but now I’m glad I know where some of the weird, obscure items are that people rarely ask for. It’s nice not to have to scour the store thinking “I just KNOW I’ve seen it around here somewhere…”
Although this wasn’t the worst, it most certainly could have been, and always comes to mind when questions like this are brought up.
I was on a job site. A half dozen houses were being built simultaneously. I walked too close behind an excavator, which abruptly turned. I nearly got hit in the head by the back end of that thing - which is all ballast and has tremendous mass. I almost got myself sent to the emergency room, and it would have been 100% my fault.
At the moment, I was just glad that none of the guys on my crew saw me pull such a rookie move. I didn’t think about it seriously until I got home that day. That excavator would’ve shattered my cheap plastic construction helmet like it was an eggshell. I could have died.
I work retail. Contrary to popular belief, I DO NOT always know whether a particular item is in stock or not, unless I consult the computer. I do not have the exact price of every item committed to memory. I don’t even know the expiration date of every single coupon. Some customers think I suck at my job, but I haven’t gotten any complaints from the people who pay me, so…
I hope that India doesn’t make the same mistakes my county (America) made, such as trying to be a major international player while ignoring the people in need at home. They’re already going that way, but there’s time to change course.
Also, I’d like them to fix their issues with Pakistan. That border was drawn by the British specifically to cause problems, and falling into that trap is letting the previous colonizers win.
I 100% believe you.
So what?
At this point, anyone who’s a Trump supporter secretly (or quite vocally) agrees with the policy of executions.
“I meant to do that.”
It’s refreshing to see older lifelong republicans who didn’t believe the media and voted for Trump out of inertia, but are ditching him now that he’s repeatedly proven himself to be a scumbag. Better late than never!
Fuck that. I want to see people do one year of mandatory customer-facing retail work.
Unless it’s some kind of disease that takes over your brain and involuntarily makes you a bullshit artist, I don’t see how this is relevant to anything.
Okay, I did laugh, but I have to point out that there are people caught in the middle. A lot of folks, no how loudly they yell, or how many flags they burn on TV, don’t actually want to kill anybody. They just want to live. They just want to take care of their families. That’s who liberals are trying to help.
