@raphjd Why do you think I don't vote anymore.... I don't vote because I don't think any of the candidates we have running are acceptable, and thus, I refuse to support any of them.

@hubrys You say it yourself.... SIMILAR.... SIMILAR is NOT the same. There is a difference. One is naturally occurring and the other is not.

@raphjd Justin Trudeau tried such measures in Canada. It failed miserably as many police forces refused to enforce the powers that he gave them on the grounds of them being unconstitutional... For example, Justin Trudeau gave police forces the power to stop people (like drivers) for no reason other than to question them about where they are going and why they are not at home like they're supposed to be. On the most part, most police forces refused to exercise this power. The closest that many of them came was setting up speed traps and pulling people over that they caught for speeding (a valid reason to otherwise pull them over even without the restrictions) and asked them the questions.

What's worse is that if you had to travel to and from work for some reason, you had to have papers from your employer with their contact information to vouch for your need to be out and about to travel to and from work. Also, you were only allowed to travel to and from work if the job that you do was considered "essential". If your job was not considered "essential" by the government's standards, you were SOL.

The other thing we saw was a restriction on what products you can buy. If the product was considered "essential" such as groceries, it was fair game, but things like clothing (including bras and underwear), and many other things you could reasonably argue are essential for some people were not allowed to be sold. It was insane... Going into Walmart and not being able to buy about 90% of the stuff on the shelves. It was insane. On that note, we even had a very interesting case that we came across where a man went to do his grocery shopping wearing nothing but a pair of tighty-whities. The media covered it extensively as it was considered so "groundbreaking in uncertain times". His claim (which I kind of agreed with) was that if clothing was not an "essential" item, then why is it required to do our shopping?

Getting stopped by the police, questioned, and needing papers in order to travel freely between places without police interference is awfully reminiscent of things we learned in history class, isn't it? Those times were very 1930's Germany, don't ya think?

@raphjd I hate to say it, but the Liberal party here in Canada is no better... We're always giving out obscene amounts of money to the poor people of wherever it may be, while simultaneously ignoring the needs of their own people. For example, we have a housing crisis in Canada currently, but yet our idiot stick prime minister has continued to open the flood gates of immigration to take in more and more people, knowing that we already do not have enough housing for the people we already have. What's worse is that many of these people that are coming in are coming in claiming refugee status when the truth of the matter is that they just do not want to go back to their country as they won't get the free handouts that they'd get in Canada.

That brings me to another bone of contention with the Liberal party here... They'll create all kinds of opportunities for the immigrant population and make certain services available to them, often at no charge, but yet if you were born and raised here, you're SOL and get nothing. I presume that the USA is very much the same from what I can gather.

@blablarg18 As a general rule, I would say no... Stereotypes are never a good thing as they often do not reflect the opinions, values, styles, etc of the masses, but rather only portray an image of the people that does not accurately depict the group as a whole.

@blablarg18 It's just that whether or not the poll hits on the truth does not change whether or not the belief is true. I just don't see how opinion (however popular or unpopular) can in any way determine what the facts are.

Don't get me wrong though... I'm not a fan of Biden, and I am also not a fan of Trump either. I find BOTH of them to be vile and disgusting humans (if you even want to call them that). Now... the interesting thing to see will be to see whether or not the majority of the masses are correct in their belief and assertion.

Simply put, I'm looking for the facts, regardless of however popular or unpopular that they may be by way of public opinion.

@blablarg18 What do polls of what the people think have anything to do with the facts of the matter? They're literally speculation at its finest and mean nothing in terms of the actual facts.

Don't get me wrong... I'm all for marketing to the largest market possible in the masses, but I couldn't help but laugh at this one. If you want to feature a chubbier dude to try to market to a larger target audience, that's fine, but why does it have to be a butterface?

I mean seriously... They're great and all.... BUTT-ER-FACE! LOL

@raphjd This does not surprise me... Many politicians will say whatever they think they need to say in order to get into power, and then quite often, do not deliver on their promises. It's kind of sad, really.

@raphjd It's a sad, sad world that we live in... It never used to be this way, but things seem to get just a little worse every day.

@raphjd Ah... That would make sense. I just found the number rather oddly specific.

It's sad that things have come to this... And to thin in the 1920's and 1930's, electric cars were a thing but got shut down because of big oil.

Now we've come full circle, but have not really done anything to address the issue of the wires involved.

@raphjd $972,000 for bail? How did they come to this figure? I mean, don't get me wrong... I'm not saying it's unreasonable to set the bail so high under the circumstances... I'm just saying that this is a rather oddly specific number, which raises the question how did they get to this number...

@raphjd Yes... It's really sad what this world has come to.

Granted, I'll give black people that historically speaking, a black man and a white man can commit the exact same crime, and the black man has been slapped harshly, while the white man gets but a mere slap on the wrist by comparison, but many of them take it too far. Many of them (from what I have seen) use that fact somehow as an argument to allow them to get away with it.

Personally, IDGAF who you are, where you're from, or what the colour of your skin is, if you commit a crime, you should be penalized and punished for it accordingly. Using the race card to justify getting off scott free or with just a mere slap on the wrist is in and of itself super racist. Sadly though, it seems that at this day and age, only white people can do bad things, and you can legally discriminate, but only against white people.

@Kekkaishi Yes... Most computers will run in under 300W of power consumption. This is rated for 3500W, which is almost 20A. So yes... This will work just fine for your computer.

@lololulu19 Only when the media focuses on them that it becomes an epidemic, eh? Are you aware that the USA is the ONLY country in the world to have a constant issue with mass shootings, to the tune of hundreds a year? How is that not an epidemic when they are literally the ONLY country in the world to have this problem?

@blablarg18 Wow... You put words in my mouth now too.

My comment wasn't about the report but rather was in response to your blabber in response to my statement that impeachment requires some sort of wrong doing.

If there is evidence of something that would be grounds for impeachment, then I'm all for it. What I do have a problem with though is trying something like that solely for being the political opponent. This applies regardless of what side it happens on.

There are so many things that have come to surface that were either completely fabricated, or were used to push the agenda/narrative of the opposing party or candidate, while simultaneously ignoring evidence that would have proved a very different story. All I'm saying here is with how much corruption and how many lies that have been told on both sides we are now in a world where it becomes hard to truly distinguish what is fact and what is fabrication.... what is real, and what's not

@blablarg18 Nice deflection... This tells me everything I need to know about you. You need some serious psychiatric help dude.

@blablarg18 Do you wear a different coloured tin foil hat every time you leave the house?

You sound like you're either suffering from a serious UN-diagnosed and/or untreated mental health condition. I see your lips moving, but all I'm seeing is hot air. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but it's just the way it is.

@blablarg18 My only question is impeach him for what and with what evidence? I mean, don't get me wrong, the dude is a total senile creep, but impeachment requires a wrong doing that can be proven.
