Trump's NY Election Interference Trial - Trump is found guilty on all 34 counts
The Real timschochet replied to squistion's topic in The Geek Club
Hey @Horseman you seem pretty confident in a full acquittal here. Care to have a wager on it? -
Because they all want to be Vice-President? Oops, excuse me I just assumed, reading the thread title, that you were referring to the clown GOP politicians attending Trump’s trial and them giving absurd press conferences. My bad.

You seem very upset. -
Do Democrats Want Illegal Immigrants To Vote?

No Im not fine with it. I just don’t agree with your proposed remedy. -

I don’t think I need to twist your words. You’ve made yourself quite clear. -

The Real timschochet replied to edjr's topic in The Geek Club
Yes you’ve written this before. And worse- you have openly hoped that my family suffers- one of my daughters get raped, etc, because of my position on this issue. And I am not the only person here you have wished this on. I’ll leave it to others to judge what sort of person you are for expressing this desire. I know what I think. -

I respectfully disagree. I don’t believe we should have laws that treat severely masses of individuals because of the actions of a few. I would refer you to those who believe that, because of some school shootings, we should ban all assault rifles (I am not one of them.) They use the same logic that you are using here. -

The Real timschochet replied to edjr's topic in The Geek Club
OK serious time. I don’t want people without papers to come here. I would much prefer they come through legal means. But I am very sympathetic to them once they get here because I believe the vast majority are very hard working, honest people with no thought of violent crime or abusing our social system. I also don’t buy that we don’t have room for them and think our immigration system should be a lot more open. I don’t think these people present either an economic or security risk to us. There are always exceptions of course but exceptions are what they are. This is my honest position. -
If it’s a trans person who hasn’t had surgery? Yes. Shouldn’t be allowed, but not a huge deal and no rights are truly infringed. That’s my position.
-
As ai wrote earlier- if I had to decide I would prohibit anyone with a pen!s from being in those spaces. But I don’t think it’s that big a deal and I don’t think if it happens that any rights are seriously infringed. It’s really pretty minor, IMO. Any large focus on it smacks of fear and bigotry, IMO.
-
I also don’t agree with the phrase “militant trans”. The use of the word “militant” here is ALWAYS used by conservatives against any group seeking equal treatment and an end to discrimination. Before “militant trans” there were “militant blacks”, “militant feminists”, “militant gays” etc. The term is used as a perjorative to characterize the group as angry and extremist. Which I don’t believe is the case.
-
I don’t agree that other people’s rights are being dismantled.

I know very little about this guy (I don’t follow golf that much.) But if he really accelerated and hit the police officer that should be a felony, shouldn’t it? -

Oh hell yes. As many times as they can. I say Mazel Tov! (I added that for @Cdub100). -

MSNBC and the others are trying to make this trial seem more exciting than it is, with the outcome a horse race and in doubt. They get more viewers that way. In truth the defense’s big “triumph” was probably much ado about nothing. The key parts of Cohen’s testimony are backed up by evidence. Attempting to argue that this phone call misstep proves that Trump didn’t know about this payment will fall flat on its face. As I wrote before, the prosecution has proved beyond a doubt that a crime was committed here. Now they have to show that it’s a felony. The defense should focus on this question; it’s really their only chance to escape a conviction. -

Because I want immigration and individual rights. Sure. Another casualty of the Trump era: the English language. -

I consider that a compliment. Because you’re talking about the pro-America Kool-Aid, pro-freedom Kool-Aid. So thank you. -
Pelosi: Populism is a Threat to Democracy

I don’t even like state ballot initiatives. It’s not what the Founders had in mind. The public is not supposed to vote on issues. -
Pelosi: Populism is a Threat to Democracy
The Real timschochet replied to jonmx's topic in The Geek Club
lol I’m in the minority all the time. But honestly it’s a pointless discussion. Even if every Democrat in this country wanted to get rid of the electoral college they still couldn’t do it. It would be even more difficult than an impeachment and removal, and THAT’S proven impossible. The Constitution is here to stay, there will be no further amendments in our lifetimes. -

Not for me. Totally opposed to getting rid of the electoral college -

Presley bothers me. The Squad bothers me. But right now our democracy is threatened by Trump and the right. The right currently opposes everything I believe in: immigration, freedom, globalism, individual rights, all of the principles which make this country great. The Squad and the other leftists are on the good side of these issues, fighting the good fight. Too many Americans aren’t. -
