I was pointing out, that I haven't seen any violence from the right, you however just say without any references at all that the right is 3x as violent as the left. I don't see any violence from the right, and in fact, the only thing I have been pointed to by friends who are left leaning is that the right burned some effigies when Obama was elected. What violence are you seeing from the American conservatives? I have seen tons of violence over the past few years, and it is all people I would place in the American left.
The crap I was specifically speaking of though, is the violence and destruction. I was warned not to even go into Baltimore not too long ago because of these riots:
They were destroying cars, burned down and looted a CVS, and all over a single traffic death that was attributed to poor training. I would love to see all this violence you see coming from the right though. The riots on the left have become the left versus the government (that they built in many cases), so as you point out, it becomes the people versus the police.
If however you were trying to say that it is 3 left to 1 right, I would tend to agree, but that is not how I read your comment. The reason is that traditionally the right values authority, whereas the left is about bucking authority. It is a core value of the movements. This leads to the left traditionally being violent to authority as they try to change the problems they see in that authority.
I don't see rioting from conservatives at all. I am not sure what news you are seeing, but these riots are from people "protesting" Trump and his policies (without even having a basic understanding of the policies). The day before the inauguration, the protesters torched a limo. Ironically, the limo was owned by a muslim man who didn't like Trump either. Protests at U C Berkeley turned violent over Milo Yiannopoulos, and the recent executive orders that were implimenting policy passed by the previous administration. Portland Oregon protests turn violent over Trumps (illegal!) immigrant stances.
There were some non-violent protests, such as the women's protests the Saturday after the inauguration, but that is hardly the norm right now.
FYI, I live 30 minutes outside DC, I hear about all the crap going on down there, and it isn't pretty with all the violence coming from these people.
Yeah, I can only speak for the Trump supporters I know, but I haven't seen any of them getting angry. I see many people shaking their heads at all the stupid riots and destruction, but that is far and away from angry.
I voted for Johnson, I couldn't support either Hillary or Trump.
The issue is that the victims of the crimes actually did a better job of investigating it than the FBI did in many cases.
When did Wu show up and interview anyone? The FBI did their job, they passed off the evidence of the only crime they were able to find in the logs, and it was ignored.
Why didn't the FBI take the claims of the pink bunny conspiracy seriously!? They must be in on the conspiracy, the FBI is really run by the pink bunnies!
They were supposed to find the massive conspiracy of pink bunnies that was out to get Wu. Why didn't they find the massive conspiracy of pink bunnies? It must be because they weren't looking hard enough, the FBI should increase the resources being put into searching for pink bunnies.
It looks like you have trouble ascertaining what is and is not sarcasm. I was not meaning that as a literal statement of which party Trump was in, but that he was a member of the DNC repeatedly, and the only reason many seem to be against things he does is because he was elected from the RNC, not because they have put the least amount of thought into anything he does or says. This is specifically evidenced by the conversation above, which conveniently gives Obama a pass for doing the exact same thing, while demonizing Trump for doing it.
Yes, I am aware that Trump was not a Democrat at the time, but he actually could have been an independent at the time, depending on when the statement was made.
Um, how is that any more restrictive than what was quoted? It is specifically giving an example of a condition that should be considered when allowing someone in despite the restrictions.
In fact, in certain training I have to take, it was held up as an example of a domestic terrorist attack. I don't think anyone tries to claim that it wasn't a terrorist attack except strawmen.
Not only did he stop immigration from various countries. He did it 6 times during his tenure as president.
I am not trying to claim you are being untruthful, but I tried to look for citations for this in response to someone else and wasn't able to find anything. Do you have any links to information about this?
Comey cannot prosecute, the job of the FBI is to investigate. When more evidence came forward, more investigation was warranted. Not reopening the investigation would have been seen as politically motivated, would you rather Comey bow down to politics or do his job?
If the popular vote was used, the candidates would have run their campaigns differently, people would vote differently, and the outcome would be unpredictable.
It was known that Iraq had WMD, which is why the inspections were required by the UN. When Saddam decided to block the inspections, it made the world concerned that he was again manufacturing, which is why the US invaded.

Itsself as well.
Very ironic though.
Are you sure your reps/senetors are against it?

Many Dems supported the last expansion. It is kind of normal for a country to want secure borders.

Both Clinton and Obama voted Yea. This wasn't even controversial then, but now, it is Trump, so we must gnash our teeth.

Do the cars care why the car in front stopped? The proper response is to stop.
My whole phone is encrypted...I must be super duper suspicious...
Out of curiosity, were you against Obama's bigoted, un-American, unconstitutional executive orders?
We just lived through 8 years of a Oboma where the press cheered every move whether it was good or not.
Perhaps after 8 years you might have learned that his name is Obama, not Oboma.

including a murder victim
I would hope that a murder victim wouldn't be charged to begin with, as they would be a dead body...
If the popular vote was used, the candidates would have run their campaigns differently, people would vote differently, and the outcome would be unpredictable.
Except that this whole thread is talking about other kinds of impairment which a breathalyzer cannot detect, such as being too tired to drive.
What does that have to do with anything? Iraq DID have WMD. Just not nuclear ones.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
It was known that Iraq had WMD, which is why the inspections were required by the UN. When Saddam decided to block the inspections, it made the world concerned that he was again manufacturing, which is why the US invaded.
There is also the possibility of predation causing many of those deaths. Wolves don't normally bury their prey.
FYI, everything has chemicals, you are made of chemicals!
