So the law is the absolute, undeniable source of true definitions, got it. Not sure why you'd think that, nor what the context of this statement is. Care to elaborate? The law is the absolute, undeniable source of legal definitions, so there's that. That means that - based on the clear words the au...

No. People who have killed pregnant women have been charged with two counts of murder (Scott Peterson for example), and this law would legalize what Kermit Gosnell was prosecuted for.

Cail, do you worry that a rapid pullout of troops in Afghanistan would have the same effect as Obama's rapid pullout of troops in Iraq--i.e. ISIS? Do you advocate a residual force be left? That's the million-dollar question, isn't it? The problem in Iraq was that when we left, we failed to make it ...

There's a very slippery slope there. There are people out there (and a ton of stories from college campuses) that simply stating an unpopular opinion or <gasp> wearing a MAGA hat is "triggering" and a form of harassment and/or bullying.

This is not a road we want to go down.

There's a big difference between downloading a torrent and saying, "you should kill yourself" without any context. I think that sets a very, very dangerous precedent.

I think the cat's out of the bag on that one though. Everything posted online is data-mined now, even texts. Facebook is the latest example. One more layer isn't going to make a difference imo. Well....yes and no. I have some very strong feelings about that, and have said so in the Tank. With that ...

Another example of the 'tolerant' left. Keep it up Democrats. This is how we got Trump in 2016, and this will get him reelected in 2020.

The problem is what's allowed, what's not allowed, and who decides. A third party or algorithm that's looking for "bullying" has no sense of context. Do you really want your ISP, or the police, or a division of the government pouring over your texts, emails, and social media posts flagging...

Agreed .. and Zs right the ap, program sounds excellent HLT but realistically it is different from making internet access under a certain age illegal and doesnt acquit parents of their responsibilities to parent. Aside from the fact that there's no way to police it, we've gotten past the age of pri...

SCOTUS is leaning pretty textual at the moment, and RBG is in much worse shape than people are letting on. Form what I hear, she's not going to last another 6 months. At that point....get ready for the fireworks. A great deal of this country's economy is spurred by the M/I complex. If we're not at w...

McConnell's owned by his donors, and they'd be impoverished by an end to our overseas military adventures. Lasting, meaningful peace would cripple our economy in the short term. I realize that this position puts me at odds with the purported right wing echo chamber that supposedly exists here, but I...

Why would they be sued? I don't get that. Parents need to take responsibility for their kids. End of Story.
Right. Do you really want ISPs sued over content? That opens the door to de facto content censorship.

I didnt say it did .. its however sufficient as cause. It is grounds for investigation. And with Stones recent foray with the investigation.. it is not unreasonable to suspect there is more to come.

That still doesn't prove collusion. An alternative explanation is that people associated with the Trump Campaign were seeking ways to line their own pockets, much like what people associated with the Clinton Foundation did for years. Correct. Despite the narrative, nothing - nothing - so far has in...

Thats a ludicrous assessment of which there is absolutely no evidence of. Well seeing as there's been no evidence of Russian collusion or obstruction, what are we left with? Especially since half the Democrats are explicitly talking about impeachment. But, I'm sure that as an outsider who lives 9,0...
