"Of Jewish and Mexican descent" doesn't loving matter, "White-ness" is in the eye of the beholder. The WP hand sign thing is kinda eye-rolley, but lets not pretend like the right doesn't have it's lot of folks who would be first in the oven vehemently spreading their propaganda or working to help their political agenda. edit: It's not it's Barackaflockaflame doing it at a NAACP rally, where a knee jerk reaction would be absurd.

Handsome Ralph posted:Yeah I completely agree with you here. I think you can do both right. Economic and political stuff that isnt out right racist/classist, but has racist/classist outcomes. Red lining or Voter ID law for example. Has enough cover that the ill informed can say "naw theyre not racist/classist" The alternative is just worst. You can also point out, yo this guy is dog whistling and doin nazi memes and hasnt been thrown out. Maybe that stuff can drive votes.

Then lol this comes out. Quick someone submit an anonymous op ed with a southern drawl from a high ranking Justice Dept. official calling trump "An uppity carpet bagging ragamuffin"

As I understand it the difference between manslaughter and homicide is if you would rather the dude died or not. So how can any sort of intentional discharge of a gun that ends up in a dude the gun was pointing at not homicide? A gun is a tool whose sole purpose is to destroy people, animals, pieces of paper, etc. It's not like "Was working construction and having a nail gun fight, and accidentally lobotomized my friend not realizing you can do that, whoopsie" or "I got startled and tasered the dude and the dude had a heart condition, whoopsie" edit: in fairness I could be and probably wrong. I'm really curious. Defenestrategy fucked around with this message at 02:15 on Sep 10, 2018 |

Nine of Eight posted:The social contract is more of a Locke and Rousseau thing, Hobbes was all about how life was "nasty, short and brutish" and therefore it was perfectly ok to have a strongman in charge. Leviathan was the precursor to all of that. Leviathan posted:Sovereign power can be attained in two ways. One is by natural force, as when a man makes his children submit themselves and their children to his government, by being able to destroy them if they refuse, or•subdues his enemies to his will by war, sparing their lives on condition that they submit their wills to his government. His deal was life in nature sucks because folks don't cooperate, and that's why folk banded together either by force or by choice and gave up some of their rights and in return the sovereign won't abuse them, and in return for that the people won't send for guillotines.

facialimpediment posted:There's a serious argument to be had about state/federal double jeopardy laws, where someone could be acquitted on a state charge, then get convicted on a federal charge for the same exact thing. The case is mostly about a guy that essentially had that happen to him and is currently in prison. On one hand it prevents dudes from committing hate crimes in rural rear end Mississippi, and having the jury nullify it because they're some racist trash and the dude gets off clean. On the other I could see where this is hosed if those same pieces of trash control at the fed and not the state level.

I'm kinda with the no-impeachment poo poo. I feel Trump would be a way more ineffectual lame duck, and may even cost his party a few more points by yelling at clouds than a lame duck Pence who may know the wheels to turn to affect policy without having any legislative controls. The Democrats in the meanwhile could subpoena and investigate the poo poo out of Trump et, al. to hopefully toss them in jail for corruption of one kind or another.
