It’s also a safeguard against the reigning power using bogus prosecutions against their opposition, like we see in many authoritarian states.

Jailing someone in the middle of a trial is a hugely disruptive delay. But now the trial is over, and the judge gets to count all ten counts of contempt (so far!) against Trump during sentencing. Trump has also been doing everything that a repentant defendant should not be doing, so even though it’s his first offense, he might get some actual jail time. Not the max, but maybe a few months. Especially if he violates the gag order and goes after the judge of his family again. Or the jurors.
They’re against anything that the Democrats want. If the Democrats decided to fix the pothole out front, Republicans would rally in favor of potholes’ right to damage your car.
Because Jack Dorsey is obsessed with the same “free speech absolutism” that Elon Musk is, and he’s butter that people don’t want to be shown Nazi propaganda, hate speech, and all that other shit on his platforms.
Dorsey is an idiot, just like Musk. Don’t let their money fool you.
Gerrymandering, structural advantages, etc. the same as it’s always been.
Because unfortunately the pro-Israel, pro- cop Democratic candidates are much closer to the average voter than the nutbag religious extremists are.
Even if the system isn’t corrupt, it’s run by humans who make mistakes. It’s only a matter of time before one of those mistakes gets an innocent person executed. The only way to execute zero innocent people is to execute zero people.
Because Trump would be so much better on the issue, right?
Maybe, though, it’s enough to get the coroner to take another look at his death.
He’s a high profile corporate whistleblower who allegedly committed suicide. Any coroner who isn’t already triple checking everything is way too corrupt or lazy to bother with another look.
The year is 2065. E. Jean Carroll is the richest human alive. She rules a business empire that stretches across the globe and even to Mars. This empire does not charge for services, sell products or even take investor funding.
Its only source of revenue is suing the immortal cyborg that is Donald Trump, who even after 40 years of taking Ls is still pathologically unable to keep his fucking mouth shut.
I’ve heard that it was Warcraft that was supposed to be a Warhammer licensed game but I don’t believe it. I don’t know what the armies looked like at the time when Warcraft 1 was being designed, but the Humans certainly don’t look like anything in 5th Ed - TOW.
StarCraft is clearly inspired by WH40k, but it came out after they should have resolved any licensing issues with Warcraft.
Warcraft 2 was actually a really great game. If Warcraft 3 and StarCraft never came out and utterly eclipsed it, it would have been an all timer. Warcraft 1 was also good, but inferior to 2 in basically every way and never got time to shine.
Witcher 1 was incredibly tough to play through, but Witcher 2 was great.
Only the Senate gets to block appointments like that, and Democrats control the Senate.
I would rather have an actual orange baboon as president than Donald Trump.
But you need states to agree to that, which runs into the same issue as an amendment does.
The good news is that Biden isn’t even a forgetful old man. The media just takes every normal slip up he makes and runs it non-stop.
Hello, airplanes? It’s blimps, you win!
Man… Years ago, I started doing a bit with my friends where I joked that having sex with women was super gay and the only way to protect your manhood was to get off by swordfighting other men. Now these lunatics have gone so far into the deep end that they’re doing my bit unironically! I think someone needs to recalibrate the simulation because something is broken.
How is executing someone keeping us safer from them than just throwing them in prison? Prison escapes, especially of dangerous, death row level offenders are exceedingly rare, at least in the US. People will point to deterrence, but no scientific studies have been able to demonstrate any significant deterrence effect of capital punishment. You’re just killing people out of anger.
I get it, many of these offenders are abhorrent. I won’t lose any sleep over the supermarket shooter getting his. But the death penalty should be abolished.
No government can afford giving large enough baby bounties to move the needle. Kids are really, really expensive.
