We can now posit the theory: privilige makes stupid.
September 28, 2020 at 08:17
Interesting link. I've never disagreed with the likelihood of the prosecutor not handling the case properly (too early in any case). I've only said th...

I don't answer them because your questions are distractions. For you to have an issue with the decision of the grand jury, you need to have grounds to...
September 27, 2020 at 12:15
It appears it's you who believes there's evidence out there that nobody knows about.
September 27, 2020 at 12:02
What other conclusion was there available to the grand jury then the one they reached based on the available evidence? Based on what we know, the deci...
September 27, 2020 at 11:38
With respect to the specific details of how evidence is treated I asked a specific question. Meanwhile, it's pretty clear you just want read into what...

I asked precisely because I don't know how it works in the US. We don't have a jury and it seems the judge can instruct a jury to disregard certain st...
September 26, 2020 at 13:48
That's actually wrong. They're definitely not instructed by a prosecutor. The prosecuter decides what subjects the grand jury investigates and drafts ...

I think we all feel relatively certain there's been a lot of lying surrounding the knock and announcement. @"Hanover" what happens with his testimony ...
September 26, 2020 at 06:13
I did. Your issue seems to be with the prosecutors and not the decision of the jury, which I was explaining appeared to be the correct one. Both expla...

uh no. The definition of boogaloo doesn't support that.
September 25, 2020 at 18:41
You were saying?
September 25, 2020 at 18:40
If you'd read the two FBI links I shared you'd know lone wolfs first, then white supremacist groups and ultra-national groups. Boogaloo is an obvious,...
September 25, 2020 at 18:02
Again, on the basis of the facts available to the jury, this was the only conclusion they could reach. That further investigations would unearth addit...

Of course. And plenty of Conservatives voted for him because of that. But those conservatives aren't defending Trump's racism or delude themselves he ...

September 25, 2020 at 04:32
Wait. So just saying racist shit to get votes doesn't count as racism? Isn't that a bit like saying it's OK if I'd call some black person a "stupid mo...
September 24, 2020 at 20:22
We all knew he was a racist before he got into office. A person has to be a racist himself if he were blind to it.

I never pushed that. I'm denying your allegation that Antifa as a group goes out of its way to target journalists. Apart from your really, really low ...

They're comedians not journalists according to their own patreon page. We are talking about these guys right? https://www.facebook.com/TheColoredCons/...

I've already answered what I thought about Ngo being hit. It's in my previous post. My problem with your comments was, that you claim multiple journal...
September 21, 2020 at 06:28
did you read the article from rolling stone? Ngo goes out of his way to provoke these sort of situations and isn't a journalist. Your claim was about ...
September 20, 2020 at 17:24
no, I don't. And neither does the FBI worry about Antifa violence. Which journalists are we talking about? I just linked you an expose on Ngo being a ...
September 20, 2020 at 15:23
So you admit knowing next to nothing and then even illustrate you don't know anything about the current situation.
September 20, 2020 at 14:55
Its history goes back to the 1920s. It's more modern form 70s and 80s. Maybe read up a little before coming to a judgment.
September 20, 2020 at 13:49
Since when has Antifa been active and what do you know of their history? What do they believe according to you? How often have they instigated violenc...

Wrong thread Mr Red Herring.

I don't think Trump was referring to immunisation by other means than contracting covid-19. Nevertheless, I think the number of cohorts that would die...

I post here to meet bigger cunts than I actually meet in real life so I can put things in perspective.
September 16, 2020 at 20:00
I stand corrected. Someone did just say it. :chin:
September 15, 2020 at 18:03
If your infantile interpretation of what I have said reduces to the above quote then your problem isn't just logic but language in general.
September 15, 2020 at 09:52
Where have I or 180proof said that? Nowhere. So now you're resorting to lying.
September 15, 2020 at 09:50
Reducing my argument to whatever statistics I might have shared is another straw man. Does it ever stop with you?
September 14, 2020 at 11:04
Nobody here has argued that, so as usual a straw man fallacy.
September 14, 2020 at 10:38
This is again a red herring. Point the fallacy out where I made it or shut up.
September 14, 2020 at 10:30
1. We're not in debate teams so there is no "your side". 2. Hypocrisy isn't a fallacy. 3. You haven't pointed out any fallacies yourself so you "misse...

Well, Trumpet. You could downplay the risk to avoid a panic AND take action to avoid the worst. The problem is he recognised the danger and didn't do ...
