Since the jury came back with murder I assume they rejected the "accidentally went to the wrong apartment" excuse which means that all the tying in knots people were doing was irrelevant?

Its disappointing because Bernie is the only national level democrat that believes that social programs shouldn't have ridiculous restrictions put on them. Clearly you have to have 10 pages of forms to fill out, giant warnings about mistakes being perjury, have to go to tribunals and whatever other dumb poo poo congress comes up with to qualify for a social program, you can't just cut checks blindly to people unless they're worth at least $100 million!

bird cooch posted:What things? What made you change your mind on what subject? Cause I'm not getting much out of that. The biggest wtf is this page: https://elizabethwarren.com/plans/health-care quote:Medicare for All solves these problems. Everyone can see the doctor they need. Nobody goes broke. And your doctor gets paid by Medicare instead of fighting with an insurance company. Fantastic! quote:In addition to the right to physical health care, we must prioritize affordable, high-quality mental health services. Despite the widespread need for these services, many Americans are denied coverage. Elizabeth’s Behavioral Health Coverage Transparency Act would hold insurers accountable for providing adequate mental health benefits and ensure Americans receive the protections they are guaranteed by law. She has also worked to hold the Department of Health and Human Services accountable for improving insurers’ compliance with mental health parity laws through an online consumer portal. Wait what. She has plans but they don't seem to be self consistent!

Smiling Jack posted:I'm not up on Texas sentences, but that's pretty average for murder in NYC if you have no priors. joat mon in the detainment thread says that the way Texas decides between first and second degree murder is that the jury picks the appropriate sentence during the penalty phase. The potential range for 2nd degree murder in Texas is between 2-20 years. I wonder if the jury just said "ok we think its 2nd degree, just take the middle of the range I guess, lets go home"

Mr. Nice! posted:It's not first or second degree murder. There are no degrees in TX. She was convicted of murder, which is a first degree felony. It is possible to reduce that to a second degree felony at sentencing if it was a crime of passion, but this was not. Whats the jury instruction really like for this? Is it just write the number of years on the blank or something? That seems like a recipe for very, very random results because 12 people would have to agree on a number.

Now I'm vaguely curious - what was going on in that region during WWII? Turkey was "neutral", Syria was under the control of Vichy France and Britain fought for and eventually reinstalled its puppet government in Iraq after an axis lead coup. Basically what I'm saying is that region being a clusterfuck and Germany not getting any oil probably helped a bit with the landings at Normandy. edit: https://twitter.com/bubbaprog/status/1182038589925941248 ...are we the baddies hobbesmaster fucked around with this message at 23:14 on Oct 9, 2019 |

A Bad Poster posted:So, it I'm reading this right, Turkey just invaded Syria, and as much as the Kurds hate Assad they hate the Turks more, so now the people we have been fighting with for half a decade are now fighting against a NATO ally along with the people we have been helping them fight against for half a decade. Meanwhile the Turks are playing "I'm not touching you" with the US forces in the area because they know we won't do anything to them if some of our guys get smoked, because in the end Donny is a gigantic weakling. And now if Syria+Kurds do any sort of counter attack Turkey can invoke article 5 and demand the US start killing Kurds with them?
