@Real Dodger, do you have any question you’d like to ask a cop?
Or is your real intention to shut down this thread as you did the politics section? For an Audi driver who has no business on a BMW forum, you certainly seem very avid to destroy this place one post at a time. And yet, you can’t move away from it. Strange obsession. |

Some points I'd like to make that I hope will help us attain more of the common ground we already have: Trump's behaviour has to be examined in context: a) he is a symptom, not a cause b) in other words, there is a vein of discontentment that he has tapped into So, what is the underlying reason people are listening to him? That has to be addressed with reconciliation - else that gap will just grow larger. c) not using his behaviour as carte blanche for everyone else to act in the same way (the old 'if so and so jumped off a bridge, would you do so too?') Unfortunately, we aren't seeing any attempt to reach across the aisles, but just a sort of trench warfare on each side, with the current president being just as guilty. Social media has made this gap much worse - with both the domestic AI and foreign interests (bots) promoting divisive agendas for profit (through ad clicks etc) Nobody needs a sound bite for Twitter or cable TV or a meme on Facebook, but solid well thought out plans that have wide ranging appeal. To put some meat on abstract concepts, taking student loan forgiveness as an example: - Is the degree/diploma something that has economic value that will provide a job? Or a very niche category? - Is it something purely for personal enrichment rather than economic value of a job paying X or higher? Treat it like a business loan. What is the likelihood of it being paid within X years? Like an actuary assesses risk. I could go on and on about accusatory racism, etc, but this long enough for a friday morning eh and i've hijacked @Sedan_Clan's thread enough Last edited by paquet; 09-02-2022 at 07:08 AM.. |

This has nothing to do with the difficulty of highlighting specific words because you are on your phone. What you did do however is reply to me, then take a few of my words and rearranged them in a completely different order to suggest that I had said something I had not as a subquote. That has nothing to do with highlighting anything. You made zero effort to actually quote me, and a reasonable effort to pretend I had said something I hadn't. Do better. Feel free to read what I said and tell me what about it suggests some sort of alt right biased news source. |

I seem to recall something about private citizens not being able to own supersonic military aircraft, and it came up because people were trying to import newer Soviet-era MiGs.....

So emails from big government to big tech have been procured, and within these emails it has now been revealed without a doubt that the Biden administration has lobbied/mandated big tech to censor free speech and political opponents. This is a whopper! Talk about dictatorial behavior.
I worry about how law enforcement on a state/county/municipal level will be weaponized for political use. We already see how the FBI is being utilized as a political weapon. This is scary stuff. |

I could care less what the media says, I still have the responsibility to seek the truth for myself. We are all adults here, and if we allow ourselves to be influenced by "media", whether from the left, or right, it can only be because that is what we want to believe. Now to what the FBI does, remember that J. Edgar Hoover left a very bad taste in the minds of Americans for all he did with that entity. Again, no U.S. American should be above the law, but at my age, I've learned that favorable justice seems to come to the rich, at least on this side of life. |

You do know he didn't pack those boxes, yes? They were packed by GAO staff. He probably didn't even know what was in the boxes. All presidents have the power to classify and declassify any documents.

From WJS article:
103 classified documents out of 13,097 items seized by FBI -- this is < 1%. They are taking about *EMPTY* folders - *MOST* of them marked "classified" - sounds fishy ... |
