Well, see, the issue is that the death penalty in general means that innocent people will end up dying at some point and I'm not too thrilled with that. There are ways to address that, for example make the death penalty require a higher stand of proof, such as reserving it for cases where there is ...
I fell asleep and missed a lot of the last five pages, but I'll try to go back and respond to some of the posts that are more in need of a response >subconscious sexism What’s next? Am i a bigot subconsciously by calling a spade a spade? I'm not a fan of Questers, but I see no obvious sexism in tha...
What? Who is saying it's an attempt to persecute Christians? Seeing as how there's people out there who think this is a 'plandemic' to lay groundwork for the Mark of the Beast, it wouldn't surprise me if there were a bunch of morons who think this whole thing is Atheists trying to steal God from Am...
I think there is a compelling interest to keep them closed, especially when we are dealing with a pandemic right now. It's stupid that many people think this is an attempt to persecute Christians; it is not. What? Who is saying it's an attempt to persecute Christians? Not people on this site, but s...

Trump is not a guarantee anymore. Covid and the tanked economy will work against him. People tend to blame whomever is in charge. I don't think he is either. To be honest, I still think Biden is weak, and there is a very good chance he will still lose. Enthusiasm is low, and people like me are not ...
Let's be honest, Trump would not be in power right know if the Democrats nominated someone more popular than Hilary Clinton, but the DNC and the inept "moderates" had to get what they wanted. Now we have Biden, who is pretty much Hilary with a penis. If he loses this election, the Democrat...
Agreed. Trump is an effect of our problems, not the cause of them. Establishment Democrats think that we should all unite behind "safe" politicians to defeat Trump, when those politicians have presided over our festering problems. You are assuming a third party president would change much...
By next week, the existence of the Legislative Council would a waste of space, as well as a reminder of the existence of democracy in Hong Kong before the Handover during the Patten era. The National Security Law, if passed would set a precedent, and China will continue pushing its retarded laws on...
Getting establishment aligned Democrats to admit that pre-2016 was not some political utopia that we need to get back to is going to be like pulling teeth. People keep saying they want things to go back to normal, but quality of life in America was shit even when things were "normal" Agre...
Pretty sure it's illegal for Chinese citizens to even be on this website, because communication on online games is now prohibited as an attempt to pass the Great Firewall. lol. I don't expect any of my posts to change the attitudes of protesters or movements in china, if that's what you're getting ...
As I said, it is time for some actual revolutionary activities. Time for a new assembly backed by armed civilians to write a new constitution. It is time to build an army and establish an organization that views itself as a provisional government. Sounds really nice, but I ''doubt'' it will happen ...
This is it. This is officially the end of Hong Kong as a free nation. But we will NEVER surrender. Come September, we will throw out the treasonous, pro-Beijing sellouts from LegCo and elect principled, pro-democracy candidates who are loyal to Hong Kong and ONLY Hong Kong. We will begin passing ou...
And Hillary Clinton is irrelevant to current politics and a future public toilet when she dies. I'm only saying that bothsame is not as crazy as some say it is. Yes, currently trump is in control and is killing everyone, but let's not make the mistake of "oh yeah we just get rid of trump and e...

I support trial by jury, though it should not be a requirement if the defendant feels more comfortable being tried by a judge (known as a bench trial). I'm not in favor of restricting this right, though I do support our current setup in the state of NC, which usually tries minor crimes in district c...
If we're trying to solve racism, that's not possible. But we can reduce coronavirus-related hate crimes by not blaming China for the virus. So if politicians stop calling it a Wuhan virus, that would help already. Other than that, people should stop tolerating and justifying hate. China's governmen...
I think the only reason we hear about hatred and racism so much is because it's an issue moderates and leftists seem to overreact to in the same manner the right overreacts to LGBTQ issues. Because of that, instances of actual hatred and racism and even implicit bias seem to be overblown. I for the...
Communists like Pol Pot deprived people of their lives for trivial reasons without real charges or trials. People don't accuse communism of being totalitarian because you take away property, as many systems have done that and aren't considered totalitarian. Your bad rap comes from many of the other ...
Racist homophobic should not be counted as human. The only solution to racism and homophobia is to exclude these creatures from our society (Inglourious Basterds) Again, I get not liking racists, but they seem to be going too far with this. I also think they were smacked for a similar post not too ...
