The jury returned with a not guilty verdict.

Like, this was trial by jury, right? How is the sanctuary city policy to blame? Were they deliberating and then some liberal politician bursts in before they can agree on "guilty" and goes "NO WAIT, SANCTUARY CITY!" and they all have to vote not guilty for fear of (unfairly!) being called bigots or something? What the gently caress does this have to do with anything?

The implied conservative line is “we should go back to when POC suspected of crimes real or imagined were lynched by mob.” It’s why Ramirez agreeing with them is hilarious and pathetic.

All of the jurors are guilty of living in Man Fagcisco, capital of the People's Gaypublic of Drugifornia, and therefore have inherently compromised morality.

Schumer is the only one you really have to look for. You can fairly easily pick out Wormbama and Biden, and Pelosi's hair sticks up enough that you realize there's a face. But Chuck, Chuck is camouflaged.

Honest question, who would actually recognize who these people are, if they even recognize them as people, if they didn't follow Ramirez's work for years now? Like, how would anyone recognize those as caricatures?

I don't recognize any of them except wormbama, and him only because I've read this thread. Even knowing who they're supposed to be, I can barely see it.

The only reason I "recognized" "Obama" was because people in this thread have posted, in the last couple of months, Ramirez's old (lovely) Obama comics (mostly the lazy ones where he "refuses to say islamic terror" which is just one picture mirrored and cut and pasted for the entire strip) to mock just how little his worm-head Obama actually looked like Obama and how lovely Ramirez's art is.

I was kind of able to puzzle out that it was Pelosi on the end only because I was fairly sure he'd make Clinton more round-faced (and those are the only two women he'd ever draw on Rushmore in this situation), and had no idea it was Schumer (0%), but guessed it might be Biden because, you know, vice president, next to Obama, but only on that pure deduction by association, rather than the caricature itself.

Can they deny one child it and give it all to another?

No, each biological or adopted child is entitled to an equal share of the inheritance. If the deceased has a will, say donating everything to their cat, each child is still entitled by law to 50% of the share they would have recieved of the full inheritance had there been no wil.

Pollard’s parole terms after he served 30 years of a life sentence, include a curfew that confines him to his Manhattan home from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. preventing him from attending his synagogue and require him to submit any computer, including an employer’s, for inspection. He must also wear a GPS-monitoring device that forces him, as an observant Jew, to violate the Sabbath.. Pollard, 62, must also remain in the US for another five years, despite his having served a longer sentence for spying for an ally than anyone in US history. It is inconceivable that he could still disclose obsolete secrets from more than 30 years ago.

Kirschen is garbage but I actually don’t see the value in treating a 62 year old guy who’s been in prison for decades like he’s some great security risk. I don’t know that he needs to be pardoned but the terms of his parole are excessive from where I’m sitting.

Kirschen’s only interested in it because he’s a dickhead though.

Some very Orthodox Jews consider any electronics to be ‘work’ for purposes of the Sabbath, because completing a circuit counts as ‘lighting a fire’. There are a bunch of goofy ways they get around that rule though.

Or to put that into actual English - in Sweden, the children are always entitled to at least 50% of the inheritance, shared among them. So in a situation with two children, the parent's will can alter the amount of inheritance between 25% to 75% of the full sum.
