You know, I don’t disagree with your ultimate point. But if you look through this comment chain you should recognize that the way you chose to make it is:
If you wanted to convince anyone or provoke interesting discussion I think you failed.
In the future, you should just make your argument/statement instead of asking “clever” bad faith questions.
Reread A Fire Upon the Deep just a week or two ago.
Amazing SF writer.
He may have PTSD and he may have had 1,000 hours of firearms training, but if you empty your magazine the way he did, under the circumstances he did, you’re incompetent to be a police officer. Period.
And even he apparently recognizes that since he resigned (though whether he’ll just go get hired the next town over is probably a decent bet).
Now if we can just get all the fatties in America to read your post we’ll have this thing licked!
Most (maybe all) age discrimination statutes only protect people over 40 so may not apply here depending on the specifics.
What you’re saying is a nice thought, but it’s a game theory failure.
In a perfect world, yes, America would not have elected a narcissistic maniac. But in the real world, we did. And Ginsberg, who knew she was in poor health (had cancer like a bazillion times) opted to take a chance.
Maybe she just calculated poorly, or maybe this was a magnificent act of putting principle above pragmatism. Either way, Roe v. Wade was still overturned and so much for RGBs legacy. The smart move for an 80 year old woman with colon cancer is to find an offramp that lets her preserve her legacy.
I get it if you disagree, but I don’t think it’s hard to understand why people blame her at least in part for this mess.
Ironically what you wanted was her to politicize her position. She was above that
That’s great for her and all, but it was a choice that had the disastrous outcome of allowing Trump to replace her with Barrett. Ginsberg doesn’t have to live with that, but we all do. Thanks RBG.
And thanks to you as well!
Thanks dude!
Sorry, what are the *arr apps? Not familiar with that stuff…
There’s something in the article about auto-delete policies.
If those policies violated a recordkeeping requirement maybe a jury could infer it was done intentionally in furtherance of a crime
Or maybe even if it was set to auto delete messages after some really unusually short period. By that I mean if you configured it to delete messages after a few days it might be hard to explain the legitimate business purpose served by such a rule.
Ok u win. I didn’t want to admit it, but I guess because it wasnt a festival for peace it’s no big deal
Any theories on why ppl are getting all upset about this?
Maybe they havent heard you explain that it wasnt quite a festival for peace they attacked but a slightly different kind of festival?
What’s the recipe bro?
I mean, he got shot and he’s recovered so… in this case the consequences were definitely reversible.
That guy is either a troll or is so naive it’s hilarious.
He’s happy to argue that Ukrainians should follow some sort of Marquess of Queensberry rules of war while Russia targets apartment buildings with missiles.
Just down vote him and move on.

Doesn’t everyone pick their ideals to care about?
