Yes, it is wrong. Violence isn't the answer.

(reality check: Law itself is violence)
sounds a lot like the motto of one of the 2 camps during the US presidentials: "when they go low we go high". lol. how did that work out for them?

Then why is it, its from the LEFT, we see calls for rioting, assassinating trump, assaulting trump supporters all over??

you mean it's the left who nearly beat to death republican Austyn Crites?
you mean it's the left that called for assassinating Obama?

where were you from 2008-2015? in a coma or in a cave? +_-

Some body has to. The Left is far ti Irresponsible to ever do it.

And the Left holds the Medal on being the Most Self Righteous Gluteus Maximus Exhaust Port like.

But then Soully has that medal setting on his mantle right now.

[jelgate]

All this fighting between right and left sides is why I choose up. My way is above you all. I suggest we go back to the war against vegans and vegetarians. *eats bacon* For the glory of the meat

Nope....not on the armies themselves, but on the armies' budget...I would imagine that what that means is that the amount of the national budget spent on military operations comes up for review every 2 years, unless it was changed in one of the Amendments

I'm pretty sure a lawyer would argue that new appropriations bills every year, or every other year would be legal within that statute, because the appropriation doesn't exceed the limit of two years.

This would be true, if we ignore everything we know about the people who wrote that clause, the historical and legal context of which it was written, and how it was carried out in their lifetimes. But the intent of the law is often as important a the letter of the law.

If the Russians have/had "incriminating information" on Hillary...why didn't they give it to Law Enforcement and just get her arrested? Oh wait because the Clinton's are ABOVE the Law... I forgot.

That's a very good question. Why wouldn't they give it to the proper authorities? There's no need to go through back channels. Unless that information was obtained through less than legal means...

Eh. This will just turn out to be just another chapter in the ongoing story of "The Little Leftist that cried Russian"

I have lost count of how many times this has been told now.

And funny how we didn't get this kind of Up Cry for Justice when Obama interfered in the Israeli Prime Minister Elections when he was opposed to Netnyahu .

Why is that GF?

Oh wait.. Leftist Hypocrisy.

I (almost) forgot.

It's not illegal for us to mess with other countries, but I am not okay with other countries messing with us.

[garhkal]

Which to me is hypocritical.. We can do it to them, but they can't do it to us..

It has been said that Being a Leftist/Liberal means you never have to be sorry for the things you do.

...acorn operatives...

What is an acorn operative?

Cause I'm having a visual right now of something that isn't it.

Why is it when liberals rant about things being conservative they always trott those things out.

Because those happen to be the things which are currently being fought against by your conservative right.

YES we on the right see marriage as it has been for thousands of years.. ONE MAN-one woman.

Err... actually, that's not how it's been for thousands of years, but okay...
The church took the contract and molded it into the virtuous one man-one woman thing. By which it meant, that only a man and a woman could be united before God as their witness (love was optional as most marriages were arranged).

As to the arrangement, if you were (un)lucky enough to be a member of the nobility or royalty, chances were your "marriage" was arranged at birth with a prince/princess from another family so that more power and land could be gained. Unfortunately this also meant the occasional union between brothers and sisters, cousins -- history has a had a few mentally challenged rulers in its time due to the familial bonds of parents.

Fun fact: in England, around the time of the Celtic tribes it was customary for a boy and girl of age to live together for a year, after their union (or marriage as you will) -- most were arranged marriages anyway, they were to decide whether they liked each other and wanted to stay together or that it wasn't working. If it wasn't working, they divorced (as it were) and each going back to their own tribe (any children born into that one year, would stay with the mother).

The way marriage is defined by the church, and the way it's been for "thousands of years" is far different. Marriage is and was a contract between two people, with the intention to gain land, power, a title perhaps, an heir or two was a given (and if the wife were barren problematic).

You didn't marry for love, you married for money, power, gain. You married within your class, not lower (upper was a good match -- always better).

Point in fact: this kind of marriage is still being practiced all over the world.

But whether you like it or not, marriage is still, and will always be a contract between two people. One that can be broken by both parties or one party, with benefits and gains for both partners.

Most of us will marry for love, or are married to the person we love, or aspire to wed the person we might love in the future. Or join in a civil partnership without the full marriage.

But boy, marriage has evolved since how it was thousands of years ago...

BUT that doesn't mean we automatically want to remove any equality for LGBTQ marriages.

No, you only want it defined as between one man and one woman, or only between heterosexual couples.
Completely and utterly ignoring the beneficial gains a marriage contract brings with it. A marriage is not religious, it's legal.

On Abortion, i take it then you feel woman should be able to have an abortion for ANY REASON what so ever, any time they want, as often as they want..?

You seem to severaly underestimate the psychological impact even one abortion has on a person.

And if you look at it, its NOT BEEN the republicans that stymed voting rights..
WHICH PARTY was it that fought in the civil rights era to GET blacks the vote? REPUBLICANS.
Which fought against those bills? DEMOCRATS!

Except that's no longer applicable is it -- the parties have reversed.

Then why is it, its from the LEFT, we see calls for rioting, assassinating trump, assaulting trump supporters all over??

Because you ignore the same calls from the right.

And if that's really want feminists wnt, MORE pay cause "Hey, they require more clothing", and that's equality blah blah.. THEN SOMEONE at that firm obviously needs a MRI to ensure they still have a brain.

If you actually believe that, you're quite the gullible man.

(reality check: Law itself is violence)

I guess so, but violence is never the answer.

All this fighting between right and left sides is why I choose up. My way is above you all. I suggest we go back to the war against vegans and vegetarians. *eats bacon* For the glory of the meat

Vegans and vegetarians are just bad hunters -- everybody knows that.

This would be true, if we ignore everything we know about the people who wrote that clause, the historical and legal context of which it was written, and how it was carried out in their lifetimes. But the intent of the law is often as important a the letter of the law.

Isn't that what you have Neil Gorsuch for -- isn't he one of those "to-the-letter" judges.

LOL would be hilarious if a case were brought before SCOTUS about the 2nd Amendment -- I can already imagine the uproar.

Oh FH

You didn't get the game reference did you?

[Annoyed]

It can't have all that big an impact or there wouldn't be any abortions, aside from those needed to save the life of the mother. And I mean the life of the mother, not the lifestyle of the mother.
