And of course I'm giving examples of actual violence. one need not look any further than the current college protests to see much more violence from your side than anything the magas are doing. The college protests that rich Jewish folks paid people to go attack sleeping protesters? That violence? All the white supremacist cops assaulting people trying to exercise their rights? Are you honestly this much of a piece of shits? Nevermind I know you are. MAGA is for nothing if not cowardice and fear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But look, Trump committed a crime here and needs to be held accountable. I knew this months before I had any clue who Fani Willis was. Trump is on tape trying to pressure the Georgia Secretary of State to create more votes so that he can win an election. That’s totally illegal and it feels open and shut. I really have no idea why he wasn’t tried for this in 2021. It’s really ridiculous that it’s taken this long. Agreed but probably gets wrapped into Jack smith’s prosecution as well.

She violated numerous laws concerning awarding non-compete contracts which she bypassed the legal process so she could pay her lover hundreds of thousands of dollars. Fani also falsified numerous disclosure documents she filed where she was suppose to identify any gifts from unauthorized sources. She also approved of her lovers bills which she had a conflicted interest in which she lied about. But you have schit for brains because this has been discussed 100 times over in here, but yet you don't believe any of these illegal acts violated laws, but you somehow think meaningless check memos are actual fraud which somehow violated some non-existant election interference law. It is unbelievable how low our legal system has sunk and we have media which provide cover for this BS and morons who believe it. Those are merely rejected allegations at this point in the case.

Meanwhile there are dozens and dozens of Maga types making death threats. You know why there are so many more on your side? Because Trump incites them. There’s nobody on the Democratic side doing this. With the possible exceptions of Maxine Waters and iof course Joe Biden who likes to challenge folks to a fight, sometimes behind a gym, sometimes at a pool and sometimes during press encounters.

My memory may be faulty but I thought Trump was on tape urging them to find more votes, not necessarily create more votes. "Find", if that is indeed what was said is arguably open to interpretation. It could have meant locate votes as then uncounted. Now I don't believe this to be what he actually meant but given his truncated way of speaking in sentence fragments the case is not open and shut. I do note he was uninterested in finding more Biden votes along with votes for him so I have my belief, but it is not open and shut, it is open and push the door closed aginst a slight breeze until it latches.

Do you think the very act of the president of the united states calling state officials and "asking" them to investigate or "find" votes in their own state's voting would rise to election interference? Remember he only did this in states he lost and he only did this with officials of the same party. To me when the president speaks it carries a lot of weight and can be intimidating.

Me personally I find the behavior disturbing. I don't know that it fits within the definition of election interference but it certainly puts some pressure on election officials. I would have to reread whatever statutes there are on election interference to make a determination, but if this behavior is not included I believe that it should be. My post was not about that. It was simply to correct Tim who had misstated the case so as to make it seem more than it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Again I'll ask for data supporting police being an "overtly white supremacist system." I'll start. Here is data showing it isn't nearly as racist as you think. Study from Harvard: Quote An Empirical Analysis of Racial Differences in Police Use of Force⇤ Roland G. Fryer, Jr.† July 2017 Abstract This paper explores racial differences in police use of force. On non-lethal uses of force, blacks and Hispanics are more than fifty percent more likely to experience some form of force in interactions with police. Adding controls that account for important context and civilian behavior reduces, but cannot fully explain, these disparities. On the most extreme use of force -- officer-involved shootings– we find no racial differences in either the raw data or when contextual factors are taken into account. We argue that the patterns in the data are consistent with a model in which police officers are utility maximizers, a fraction of which have a preference for discrimination, who incur relatively high expected costs of officer-involved shootings. Keywords: discrimination, decision making, bias, police use of force https://scholar.harvard.edu/files/fryer/files/empirical_analysis_tables_figures.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
