@raphjd:

As we saw in a previous thread about hate crimes, it's a massive case of over reporting.

If a 1 eyed, 3 nippled, trans, lesbian, muslim, woman is mugged (no hate based intent, just robbery) it's still recorded as 6 separate hate crimes.

Hate crimes are always listed against the right, even when it's 4 blacks against a mentally challenged white male.

Thanks.  I have been making this argument about the OP.  The man was attacked because he pushed the other guy's girlfriend, not because he was wearing a MAGA hat.

@raphjd:

Try a full log out and  log back in.

If it's still broken, make a thread in the forum support section so I can show it to Joker.

It seems to be working now.  It may have to due with the log in timeout. Interestingly, if iI have been logged in for a while, when I create a forum post,  am never prompted to log back in, However if I immediately after try to access a torrent, I have to log back in again.
I will try to reproduce this and let you know,

I realize that this protest was organized by the left and turned into a riot. I realize that both sides :engaged." And while this event certainly promoted the concept of liberal violence, this particular encounter shows "conservatives" not only engaging in violence, but engaging in two of the most despicable and cowardly acts in "fist-fighting."–-punching a woman, and kicking someone when they are down.

This is very costly for taxpayers.  These low income workers are eligible for Medicaid, SNAP, Section 8 and lots of other public assistance programs.  Lowering their pay just keeps people on these programs.

Graham, Rubio and, you could argue, everyone on both sides of the aisle, appalled at Trump's continuing inability to see the real Vladimir Putin.

From WaPo via MSN (and every media outlet of importance):

http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/trump-suggested-a-cybersecurity-pact-with-russia-lawmakers-say-they-were-%E2%80%98dumbfounded%E2%80%99/ar-BBE4pBM?li=BBmkt5R&ocid=spartanntp

…Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) quipped on NBC's “Meet the Press” that Trump's plan was “not the dumbest idea I've ever heard, but it's pretty close.”

Graham called Trump “literally the only person I know of who doesn't believe Russia attacked our election in 2016" and said he was “dumbfounded.” Graham said Trump is “hurting his presidency by not embracing the fact that Putin is the bad guy.”

@pppucci:

I am not saying he was the aggressor,

You very clearly chose your diction to suggest that the victim was the initial aggressor.  Here are words in case you forgot:

I already debunked your beer-bottle bar brawl as nothing more than a guy pushing another guy's girl and getting into a fight.

I respect your intelligence enough to respond as best I can with citations and statistics.  Respect mine enough to not playing these retarded word games and lie about what you said, because this is uninteresting and tedious.

The number of injured officers has increased to 500.

Is this OK with liberals on this board?  Are liberals still going to argue that conservative violence is anywhere near far-left violence?

@aadam101:

Just keep on voting against your own interests.  America will be Syria before you know it

I agree Republicans do not want to work with Democrats.  I think Mitch McConnel put out there to scare them into voting en bloc

It is only pertinent to the extent that it acts as a "character witness."  I am not condoning his crimes.

@Frederick:

If the illegals are so afraid.. why don't the go back to the country they came from?  They are here ILLEGALLY!

For many of  them it's much scarier where they came from.  They just come here to work and make a living and keep their head down.

I suppose that isn't the case for all of them though.  An illegal immigrant was just deported from Boston.  He had been here for many years.  He worked and was well respected in the community.  This is the case for a lot of people but this man was a bit different in terms of what we normally hear about.  He is IRISH.  Apparently there are 6000 illegal Irish immigrants living in my state and 50K nationwide.  I have no idea why they would choose to overstay their Visas.  I have no idea what the immigration process entails  for someone from Ireland but it must not be all that easy.

Sorry.  I allowed Frederick to get under my skin, which is exactly what he wants.  I think I may give myself a time-out

@sutieday:

@raphjd:

:police:  I already ruled on this.  :police:

Can you close/lock this thread then? I see no reason why the discussion in here should continue.

I second that notion, and I will transfer the discussion of Warning / Suspension / Banning guidelines to another thread in the near future.  It's a topic worth our attention.  :cool2:

There has been zero evidence of collusion or any wrongdoing on #45's behalf, yet he's constantly trying to discredit the investigations that are ongoing. Russia meddled in our 2016 election, as they've done in other countries. The vast majority of Republicans and Democrats are actually on the same page with respect to that fact. Our president and some of his cabinet members (with the exception of UN Ambassador Nikki Haley) are still pushing back against something that not only both parties have reached consensus on, but so has the overwhelming majority of Americans. The American president is going against the overwhelming majority of the American people on this issue. No evidence has been provided showing he did anything wrong, yet he is going against the very people he is supposed to represent. Why is he doing this and how long does he think he has before this whole thing goes deeper?

I don't think Trump has actually ran his company in a very long time.  He is a failed businessman several times over.  I believe the actual running of the company was taken away from him a long time ago and he is merely the spokesman.  He claims to have a "real estate" empire but he doesn't actually own much.  He just lends his name to the buildings because people are fooled into thinking his name is synonymous with luxury.

That being said, your point remains.  He is in a position to enrich himself although it's not that different from what Congress does.  They routinely engage in insider trading which isn't illegal in Congress.  They all leave Congress as millionaires.

Being unpopular has never bothered Republicans.  The only way they win elections is via gerrymandering, fraud or manipulation of their feeble minded voters.

Your cynicism is unappreciated.

There is no controversy here for liberals, conservatives, muslims Mexicans or illegals.

The accused will stand trial.  If convicted he will be sentenced. When, (if ever) he completes his sentence, he will be deported.  We do not deport convicted criminals. To do so would be tantamount to releasing them without punishment.

How could you even think that there would be a shred of doubt in this case.  Or were you making a snide joke?

If it was on YouTube, it would have been caught, just like they did with CNN.

CNN still downplayed her message, in the "corrected" reporting.

CNN had an agenda in the way they originally edited and reported the story.

They only "fixed" it because they got caught, not because it was the honest thing to do.

@raphjd:

There is certainly more evidence backing that up than 3 million illegal votes.

Which is why liberals are terrified to allow the investigation.   :crazy2:

We've litigated this before.  I will make a prediction . the commission will find no evidence of massive voter fraud, but will impose onerous new regulations, designed to suppress the vote, "to ensure the integrity of our elections in the future."  It will mention nothing about attempted cyber intrusion and recommend nothing to prevent it.
