Honest question: how are baby killers treated by other inmates in American prisons?

It was so traumatizing he had to go see Richard Dreyfus for therapy.

This is the move Trump needs to make if he wants to become a true dictator. You need the military protecting you from the populace if you’re going to consolidate absolute power. If he starts purging the military brass, that’s a confirmation that he’s planning to be president for life.

There’s been a few. Not many. They seem like they’re the type that’s just in denial, not maliciously trying to smokescreen his ill intent.

OR…you could just have sex and start families with men who support women’s rights?

I have a feeling this extremist “solution” is just disguised misandry from a bunch of extremist feminists.

Ah well, thanks for selecting yourselves out of the gene pool, I guess?

Trump voters are stupid and have poor memories.

Except for the ones who are just plain evil.

I have a Mexican coworker who voted for Trump over a single issue: he believes Trump pulled the FBI and CIA out of Mexico, which stopped them selling guns to the cartels.

Not only is this not true, it shows that he’s voting for Trump solely for the benefit of Mexico. Honestly, to my mind, that’s not a bad reason to deport someone (which—as a citizen—he can’t be, I know).

They legitimately want Trump to deport the other illegals, not their illegals.

Artemio Muniz, chairman of the Federation of Hispanic Republicans, said he was pleased with the election outcome, but his elation was tempered because “the reality is there’s work to do."

“Now my focus is to the immigration side. Now we have a real battle on our hands, not with Trump,” Muniz said, but “we have to make sure … hard-working Mexican immigrants do not get deported.”

Fucking incredible.

Agreed. Everyone who voted for Trump is either an idiot or a monster. I think most of them fall into the former category. Every Trump voter I’ve talked to who has said they “did their own research” to inform their vote has pointed to information they got from fringe sites and outlets they were initially linked to via social media. Not one mentioned looking at Trump’s campaign website, the Wikipedia article on him, much less any of the critical articles about him in legitimate news sites. These are ignorant people with no critical thinking skills.

It’s insane to me that these hyper-rich people care nothing for future generations. They’re dooming their own grandchildren and they don’t give a shit. All so they can have more numbers on their banking apps. It’s mind-boggling.

No, it doesn’t. I upvote every opinion on this sub that I disagree with, but will often argue with the OP anyway. Expressing an unpopular opinion on the relevant forum doesn’t mean you’re immune from having to defend it.

Why can’t Subway just give this woman the meat she paid for?

Police consider a moving vehicle a deadly weapon. Thus, if you’re trying to flee from them by driving, especially in an erratic manner, you’re considered to be wielding a deadly weapon and they can thereby respond with lethal force.

Agree or disagree, this is the logic.

You’re a bad person then.

Yeah, that’s nice. You’re still appealing to something moral though, and what I’m trying to tell you is that that’s mostly irrelevant to politicians. They know they need to appeal to the masses to stay in power if they want to do anything, so appeal to the masses they will. And the masses don’t really care about international law.

I didn’t say I approved of it, I just said that’s the political calculus.

The problem is that Kamala (along with every politician in the U.S.) has to weigh the how much support they will lose if they support ceasing armaments to Israel with how much they will gain by doing so. I’m betting the polling data shows fairly conclusively that they’d stand to lose more voter support by ceasing arms shipments to Israel than they’d gain. At the very least, I’m betting that’s the fear of a lot of Democrats.

Because you’re going against the Lemmy hive mind.

We’re not disagreeing. I’m just pointing out rural towns don’t have the problem of homeless people creating tent cities because they don’t tend to have the services homeless people need to begin with.

It’s not a political thing, it’s an urban vs. rural thing. Cities tend to have more robust services for the homeless, so naturally homeless people wind up gravitating there.

They’ll find a way to suspend the law so it doesn’t affect victims of the hurricanes and then reinstitute them again later.
