There is no doubt that any jury trial involving white man shooting a black kid has potential to go badly, but I think even castle doctrine laws require the victim to actually be attempting to enter a residence. If walking on to a porch and/or ringing a doorbell counts, that's free license to shoot any salesperson or package delivery person in the state. Not that there aren't law-makers in Missouri who would undoubtedly see that as a positive.

Trayvon Martin was confronting a person following him in a public area.

Isn't banking (or lack thereof) one of the major challenges for any marijuana-related enterprise? Maybe it's been resolved by intrastate banks but I seem to remember a bunch of articles about how it was effectively a cash business since major banks wouldn't touch anyone involved due to federal regulations, and fear of scrutiny from the FDIC (or other banking regulators).

It should be noted that then Senator George McGovern, try to do something about the poor nutritional quality of food promoted to the general public, the agriculture interest stepped all over it, and nixed his attempt to fix the problem.

I wrote an open letter to Bill Maher about his “Covid and Obesity” rant (mind you I’m a former morbidly obese person who has kept that weight off for close to 30 years) and covered this.

I don't want to reopen old discussions, and I might just be missing sarcasm here, but Hillary Clinton won the popular vote¹, and AOC is way more charismatic than Hillary Clinton.

¹autocorrect almost made this "the popular vore". :catstare:

People underplay Hillary a lot for some reason. She has won Gallup's most admired woman poll 22 times. The next highest is Eleanor Roosevelt with 13. For men the highest is Obama and Eisenhower with 12.

She has this weird thing when she's actually doing her job, people like her. They just don't want her to campaign.

Ok.... and?

Are you forbidding discussion of her or setting parameters for talking about her? If it's the latter, then please set forth the boundaries a little more clearly. Thanks.

eta: I ask this so that there are clear guidelines that go beyond the old mod chestnut of "let's not do this anymore" in which "do this" isn't actually defined and "let's" is selectively applied.

I think it's more "she can be a Russian asset now and also have been assaulted then, but her leaving for Russia is the actual current event".

Sometimes I try to imagine how a no-gifting law would be implemented and enforced in the US and while it sounds nice it feels like it would be impossible.

I mean, you can set gifting limits. Pretty much every business has rules about accepting gifts over a certain amount. I can't accept anything over $50, why can someone in the Supreme Court?

I don't think any non-Trump Republicans ever expected to beat him. They just needed to exist as a backup plan. It was a gamble that could've possibly paid off if they could automatically inherit all that MAGA cult appeal. (Perhaps even longer than 2 terms, who knows?) Fortunately with Trump still around, I think we're finding that the only other option is a total burnout.

The problem is that running against Trump is, to him, a personal attack. So you're going to become an enemy to his rabid base.

I knew an Asa in high school - he was a bit of a dick and the rumor was that one time in Outdoor School (weeklong field trip) he got locked into a porta-potty and rolled down a hill. I looked him up and it seems like he's spent the last decade or so smoking meth and he's currently on the run from the police for the second time.

I missed "an" and thought you were talking about the Arkansas governor and thought "yeah, seems right."
