Telsa Cola posted:Sure, but you do realize the bet should be that she does something dumb enough that shows she shouldn't have been out on bail which is what people have been arguing, so if she violates it in anyway, clamors for armed support, refuses to show up for court, does anything to show she might indeed be a danger to her community etc etc you lose. Now if she magically goes to court like you claim she will then I lose, I mean that is what you are claiming she will do right? the bet is indeed "does she do something that shows she should not have been granted bail", but clamoring for armed support doesn't count. i don't give a poo poo how many facebook posts she makes, you don't deny somebody bail because they have a tendency to post annoying status updates. if she either "reoffends" and gets violent or at least cuts her ties and runs and tries to hide, then i lose. simply not showing up to court (but not disappearing) because she thinks that sort of thing is heroic or whatever does not make her a danger to the community and does not mean she should not have been granted bail.

Aesop Poprock posted:It's like the point you're desperately trying to prove is that we want all people with sovcit ideas rounded up and denied bail, when nobody at all is saying that. You're fighting against an imaginary idea and I'm not sure if it's on purpose or if you're just totally confused. Sandy Anderson supplied and directly took place in this occupation while stating her beliefs in doing so. She didn't get arrested just for having a position on something 18 U.S. Code § 3142 - Release or detention of a defendant pending trial - pretty clearly states that any defendant has the right to be released on bail, unless (a) there is a reasonable expectation that the released person will not appear in court or present a danger to the community. If there is a reason to believe that this is the case, the judge has to release the person under special conditions, this is where anything from ankle bracelets to simply raising the bail amount comes in. (b) if it has been determined that no combination of special conditions is enough to make sure that the defendant will appear in court and not pose a danger to the community, the person can be placed in detention. (c) it can automatically be presumed that the defendant is a danger to the community if the crime they're accused of appears in a list of specific crimes, such as sex trafficking or terrorism transcending national boundaries. (Note: this doesn't apply here.) So under what provision of the law are you arguing for pre-trial detention here?

Aesop Poprock posted:Uh it's nice of you to specifically state that c. doesn't apply at all, but why not? Here's what part of "terrorism transcending national boundaries" pertains to: No, actually non of that sounds "right on target", seeing as occupying is not the same as destroying, and "terrorism transcending national boundaries" actually has to transcend national boundaries.

Aesop Poprock posted:They wrecked the hell out of the refuge. Regardless, it was probably referring to acts of destruction that result in immediate lose of life or injuries. The part about failure to show up to court or possibility of committing another crime (although I'd lean much further towards the first than the second) part is more than enough, and what we've been discussing for this entire conversation so I'm not sure why I'd have to clarify that again after posting about it for days That's exactly why I posted the law excerpt - if you want to put her in pre-trial detention, you have to argue that no possible combination of ankle bracelets, DNA swabs, mandatory check-ins with bail agents or even supervised housing will be enough to remove the reasonable suspicion that she will not appear. That is what you have to argue, simply saying "she probably doesn't want to" is not enough. That is what I want to hear from you.

Talmonis posted:The threats to the lives of any law enforcement who attempted to arrest them should be viewed as posing a danger to the community under b.). Those threats occurred before the arrest, you have to show she'll be a danger afterwards. Again, the question is not what she did but what she is likely to do. If you think that she is absolutely likely to start shooting up a police station or mail pipe bombs to Quantico, that's fine, that's a reason to deny her bail. I don't think that's likely however.

Aesop Poprock posted:I interpreted that was meaning it includes both origins of an act of terrorism, not just international. Hence the transcending part. Could be wrong You're wrong, domestic terrorism is a different part of the statute, and the bail text refers explicitly to terrorism transcending national boundaries.

theflyingorc posted:In wolves. It does happen in primates. That's true, but the popular concept of the alpha male almost certainly refers to wolves, not just because the term originated with Schenkel's study on wolves in 1947, but also because the term "alpha wolf" gets thrown around a lot in popular culture. Also comparing yourself to a wolf sounds cooler than comparing yourself to a chimpanzee Alien Arcana posted:IIRC the original study was conducted by taking a bunch of random wolves from the wild and putting them in a pen together. A social hierarchy developed that was based mostly on the wolves' ability to beat each other up. The problem was that the scientists decided this was "the way wolves are" without ever considering how artificial the whole setup was - like trying to build a theory of psychology based entirely off of prison documentaries. derail, don't read unless you're interested in this sort of thing Not quite, but almost correct. The study that created the concept of alphas was Rudolf Schenkel's landmark study "Expression Studies on Wolves", published 1947, based on observations on two wolf packs in the Basle Zoo (Switzerland) starting in 1934. Schenkel observed two wolf packs successively, both in the same enclosure of about 200 square meters. The idea behind his studies was extremely smart: Up to that point, wolves had been extensively studied, but the concepts that had been created by zoologists were based on individual behaviour (imprinting, displaying, threatening), not social behaviour. Schenkel set out to study wolves as social animals. (The original paper is very readable and you can find it online, by the way. If you're interested in this stuff, I encourage you to read it.) In any case, he observed that quote:a bitch and a dog as top animals carry through their rank order and as single individuals of the society, they form a pair. Between them there is no question of status and argument concerning rank, even though small frictions of another type (jealousy) are not uncommon. By incessant control of all types of competition (within the same sex), both of these "alpha animals" defend their social position. (p. 87) That paper right there is where we get the term "alpha" from. From this study is was then imported into ethology (the study of animal behaviour) at large. The problem: Schenkel observed wolves that were confined to 200 sqm. For comparison, the smallest known wolf pack in the wild has occupied a territory of ~33 square kilometers, the largest known wolf territory is around 6200 sqkm. Wolves, as it turns out, who are forced to live in unnatural environments, develop unnatural behavioural tendencies. In the wild, wolf packs have a parent unit and offspring. At some point, the offspring founds their own packs, at which point they become parent wolves themselves. There is no alpha / beta distinction because there is no competition -- once the pups are old enough to leave the pack, they automatically become "alphas", i.e., parent wolves. The subtitle to Schenkel's study, interestingly, is "Captivity Observations", and Schenkel was acutely aware that captivity might cause some irregular behaviour. He just didn't think this sort of behaviour was abnormal. Why that is, and why it took us 30 more years to realize there was a fault in the original study, is another question that I won't bother you with, unless somebody really wants to hear me talk more about science gone wrong

NathanScottPhillips posted:Can you point to a time in American history where the 2nd amendment wouldn't be re-ratified if this were the case? If you could maybe you would have a point. Guns have always been popular and looking at background checks for firearms sales in the past few months, have never been more popular than right now. 86% of US citizens are in favor of universal background checks, the majority of Americans feel the laws governing firearms sales should be more strict. Unfortunately the 2nd Amendment is worded so diffusely that it's difficult to assess whether this means the majority would be for or against a re-ratification of the 2nd, since nobody can actually agree what "a well regulated militia" is supposed to mean.

Universal background checks also means some people are prohibited from buying guns, and as I'm sure you know a good number or republicans think that universal background checks or indeed any sort of gun control are a violation of the 2nd amendment, which is why I brought it up.
