Yes, but also we’re in an age of digital, extreme technological change. And mankind has a horrible tendency to screw itself up, it’s something within us. Mostly we’re a beautiful race filled with beautiful moments but we can’t seem to help damaging ourselves.

Sorry, what are these acronyms?

What ethnicity are you?

Maybe I misunderstood your point. My OP was agreeing that yeah looking for criminals in a crime infested neighborhood makes sense, & I further pointed out that there doesn’t seem to be a general push to clean up the neighborhood.

>>"Video surveillance showed that the perpetrator was wearing a 'Snap-On' jacket with distinctive shoulder patches," the statement said.<< I guess we’ll find out about these eventually.

I'm getting a feeling they're interested in quotas. That's why we're getting these stories of people pulled over in cars without warrants or probable cause, Americans arrested, normal foreign travelers detained, the "administrative errors" with the boxcar style transport to El Salvador. They don't care who they're grabbing, they're just providing numbers to higher ups. Now doubt "administrative errors" will occur in this batch also.

I don't think they are actually. IMO they're going at show arrests in city centers. It pleases maga and makes a demonstration of dominance on Dem officials. I don't think this will affect crime or deportation or removal numbers.

Actual insightful statement here. It also amuses me they just left all the natural born criminals alone.

Actual President.

It’s the same issue all over the world. Lone, young men, alienated, caught up in extremist ideology. Imagine being at FSU at that age & the possibilities on a beautiful spring day. Everyone is right, it’s the guns and it’s the values. Maybe this kid could have been something decent in another era.

Huh, interesting. Apparently no prisoners of any kind are ever allowed to have visitors.

LOL, ok you guys really, really want a discussion about the physical capabilities of Biden Vs. Trump. Tim's point is Garcia is being treated unfairly because of his race, whereupon it was raised that Tim would call someone raising that Covid came from China racist, and to my response pointing out Trump genuflecting to Xi's lies at the start of Covid the response is [insert video of Biden falling down]. This is an argument worthy of the halls of Oxford, must say.

WaPo

Trump said this.

I quoted Trump.

I get it. And Trump believes a foreign enemy dictator over his own experts. Give me the guy that falls down. Are we done on this absurd exchange?

Tim posted that Garcia was (I believe) being treated differently because he was pulled over without a warrant and all the rest that's happened to him. The response was essentially, oh yeah I bet you thought saying Covid came from China was racist. And I posted a response pointing to Trump lapping up Xi's lies as gospel truth over his own advisors. Then you posted a video of Biden falling down. Then I posted a video of Trump using the short steps, like Biden. I do agree from the bolded on down it's outright ridiculous.

It's the "short steps" that Biden was mocked for using because it suggested he was an old man who could not make the full walk up.

No, I'm speaking strictly of supposed corrupt behavior. Though to be frank a presidential candidate engaging in a quid pro quo with the AG of a major state like Florida is more significant to me personally. I also think Blagojevich's crime was more serious but Trump pardoned him.

Thank you.

I get it. Biden also rides bikes and can drive. I can’t even remember the origin of this exchange. I think this was in reply to a point about immigration but I’m not sure. Ah yes Tim pointed out that race is the bottom of all this.

Anyone have a pic of his tattoo? Aren’t there sports fans here? It’s like getting arrested for a flier de lis or Steelers 3-stars tat.

Wait, Laura Loomer’s involved???

I know I’m unusual but I really don’t care about this aspect. If a DOJ does or does not investigate a public official for political reasons it’s corrupt. The problem for Trump is that both aspects in NYC - his real estate fraud & his hush money scandal - emerged from his own DOJ’s investigation into Cohen. That was 100% Trump’s doing. I think the example you’re looking for is FLA AG Pam Bondi dropping the state investigation into Trump Org after receiving a hefty donation from Trump.

Cohen was prosecuted by Trump’s own DOJ. In fact Trump personally interviewed the US Attorney for SDNY.
