What does your experience on social media have to do with free speech?

Qualified Immunity is the most bizarre and backward doctrine. It basically says that the constitution--you know, that piece of law that lays out how the government will protect its people from itself?--that it doesn't always apply. As long as the government can think of a slightly new way to violate it, then it doesn't count.

Good news? I mean, I'm glad that the baby-eating machine was stopped for a day, but I don't think this story is good news, just not-bad news.

You forgot to mention where those cartels get their guns from...

Could you imagine if this Jesus person was real? He'd probably be livid at the blatant misrepresentation that people like this are displaying.

You're just avoiding the question. Declaring it so does not make it so.

Guys, we're talking about the ultra wealthy here. I'm not convinced that they can't afford it. And besides, valuations aren't based on nothing. The interested parties are valuating based on what they think would be acceptable compensation, should the loan, or whatever, default. Simplest solution? If the government values your assets at a rate where you can't find a buyer, then the go government would have to purchase at the established rate.

I want to emphasize here that we are talking about a level of wealth that you will never achieve; A level of wealth that indicates a sickness in society.

Uh, this has already been answered. Every developed nation with strict gun control is safer.

For some kids that's true. For a surprisingly large percentage though, gender identity can be known before they start school. Most will conform to their birth-assigned gender, so for those people, it isn't something they express clearly.

Nope. Atheism is the lack of a logical assertation.
