Four years before STARTING trial… I’m not a lawyer, but it seems like justice shouldn’t take so long if we want our laws to discourage bad behavior.

Not sure what the solution is, but something needs to change before we all realize it’s The Purge rules for anyone with a terminal illness.

The thumbnail is somehow a gif with flames over the cup, but then you click it, and the picture in the article does not have the flames.

My understanding of these trophy hunts is that they only allow people to shoot the animals that are no longer contributing to the gene pool.

They collect a ton of money to support conservation by allowing some rich guy to shoot an old lion or elephant or whatever that would have died soon of natural causes, whether a fight with a younger male, or disease, or a lifetime of accumulated injuries.

If that is accurate, I’m ok with this system. That said I have no interest in participating in it and have done little research outside of the information I’ve naturally encountered in everyday life.

Well that’s a relief

They also used to send their sales reps dressed like doctors

Except they probably don’t even understand the laws. At least the statements she made didn’t actually break the law. She’s either stupid or purposely using a straw man argument.

So sure. They can stand up for what they believe in. And they can also also get ridiculed for being idiots whose shitty opinions are not based in reality.

That’s one of the stupidest things I’ve ever read.

We spent 5% of our military budget to help Ukraine take out most of our biggest adversary’s army, and the Republicans think it’s not worth the cost.

My mother is convinced he died a while back and they have been using a body double. I don’t believe that but also have done no research.

My mother has fallen for dumb news lies before. Anyone else encounter this conspiracy theory?

Yeah I just assume that’s happening everywhere. Maybe more or less by one side or the other, but war is ugly. There are millions of individuals involved. Some are good; some are awful. People do terrible things.

You could make that argument. It would just be a baseless emotional argument disputed by facts.

Read the books man. It’s all right there in the text.

I’d argue those muslims are not properly following the text of their religion.

Same for the more “tolerant” Christians, but that’s not the point of this conversation.

Jeremy Clarkson saying oh no

True. You can’t use reason to get somebody out of a mindset they did not reason themselves into.

I remember thinking one benefit of the pandemic would be to show conservatives the truth vs what their propaganda says.

Unlike all the other garbage policies they push that take decades before consequences are noticeable, not wearing a mask and not getting vaccinated provided a quick shot of reality as they watched loved ones lose their lives to the disease.

So many more conservatives died because they did not take it seriously. Yet still nobody seemed to learn from it. Propaganda is powerful.

Muscular arm on the left. (Orthodox Jews)

Muscular arm on the right. (Parisians)

Clasped hands. (spitting on people)

I saw it first on YouTube and got really mad about that
