As DeusExMachinima points out, the practice your  advocates seems overinclusive because it requires treating all protesters in the area as acting criminally in the ways you've just described. Again, there are reasons why the Supreme Court ruled unanimously on this case. I'd encourage folks who are upset by the decision to check out the recent pages of the SCOTUS thread, where they've explained it in greater detail.vvvvv Suckit, Deus.  Gotta get quicker fingers, my friend.

The president needs security, it's now illegal to protest in any city he enters.  (this basically happens anyway)

Let me just quote that whole conversation with Ehrlichman and Haldeman, because it's epic: quote:RICHARD NIXON: We're going to [put] more of these little Negro bastards on the welfare rolls at $2,400 a family--let people like Pat Moynihan and [special consultant] Leonard Garment and others believe in all that crap. But I don't believe in it. Work, work--throw 'em off the rolls. That's the key.

Berke Negri posted:It does pose an interesting existential question of a natural order where biologically half of all fertilized eggs (with souls, the argument goes) naturally miscarry though, many without the mother even aware theyre pregnant. If a soul begins at conception (and not before as that isnt an orthodox Christian belief) you basically have trillions of souls littering limbo who just never even really got out of the gate, all generated by God who apparently has a 50-60% failure rate built into the human system of procreation and that's before what we think of "pregnancy" as starting. Phoneposting so no idea if this is a doublepost. A recent Christian movie had this idea in it, I heard. I think it had Greg Kinnear in it. All the unborn babies were like 6 year old ghosts in heaven, iirc according to the front page review.

Captain_Maclaine posted:And, supposedly, General Haig had quietly let the Pentagon know to call him first if Nixon told them to nuke anyone. When the fighting in Sinai was at its most critical stage, Nixon was generally incapacitated by paranoia and/or drink and Kissinger not only had to handle the crisis largely on his own initiative, but he also had the additional task of preventing foreign diplomats and heads of state from getting access to the president. Edward Heath, PM of the United Kingdom, got the brushoff when he called Washington to inquire about our stance but Nixon was too drunk to take the call. Likewise the Israeli ambassador repeatedly requested personal time with the president but was only allowed to communicate via Kissinger. It's kind of fascinating to think about WWIII maybe looming over everybody and nobody can talk to the most important man in the world because he's embroiled in a scandal about breaking into hotel rooms.

Fun fact: Haig, Nixon's chief of staff resigned as secretary of state under Reagan because he thought a nuclear warning shot in Europe would be a good idea.

SedanChair posted:Police are your enemies. I make a point of, where ever I go, becoming known, if not friends, to a few police officers. And in my experience they truly do believe in the ideal America, where justice is blind to wealth and race, where they really are defending their communities and making the world a better place. And in some cases that's whats happening. But what I've also noticed is that letting the ideal slips makes their jobs easier. So it doesn't matter how many cops you know who are awesome guys (and the ones I party with honestly are). At the end of a long shift after a long week, EVERYONE gets tempted to cut corners. Hell, when I was in the Navy I know people who got tired and cut corners with lethally radioactive materials. And the ugly truth for police is that the more they ignore your rights, the easier their job gets. So even the best cop, after a long week of long shifts full of complete bullshit will be willing to take the easy route. I don't blame them, it is totally human nature. I've done it myself with my jobs. I'm sure everyone reading this has done the same with theirs. But they will do it. And it will have VERY negative repercussions to you if you are the one who they cut corners on. Call it food for thought.
