Police Interactions.

It is hard to argue that government and regulations are the problem, those regulations were put in place after there were none and businesses acted poorly. They did shit like dump enough waste into rivers that they caught on fire. It's cheaper. It happened over and over.

Gov't is regulated as well. The idea that all regulation is bad isn't just incredibly short-sighted, it's fucking stupid. That is especially true when the deregulation crowd loves to use regulation to control their hot-button issues. English as an official language, eminent domain for a wall, forcing abortion seekers to watch an ultrasound and pay for a burial, anti-science Creationism curriculum regulations, the moral 2005 Bankruptcy Abuse & Consumer Protection Act (supposed to lower borrowing rates bur rates didn't change, $8 B gift to financial industry then 4 yrs later we bail them out), laws targeting boycotts of Israel, protest speech zones, laws restricting unions, drug laws...it has always been regulation for thee but not for me.

The "common sense" crowd has no common sense.

I forgot to mention one of the most important tactics, voting laws.

Moronic.

Note the first set of squirrels, one is being forced and appears to not be enjoying the experience. The second set of squirrels are going to raise a healthy family and will likely subsist in an idyllic squirrel utopia. Voluntary vs involuntary, even squirrels are smarter than you !

I sympathize with your difficulties presenting a coherent idea. I'll pray to government for you.

Conservative = recession. Look at history. We need govt more now, than ever. Thank you big govt!! For watching over me and @Rob Roy

You’re lucky the democrats allowed you to put those panels on your house. If it was up to republicans you would be in a “free market grid”

The panels are on property that is "off the grid".

I'm lucky I am not under the spell you are under, where an obedience based belief system "allows" other people the power to control you, even when you aren't trying to control them.

Yes, they are watching...probably even reading this post.

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — A central Florida sheriff’s deputy was suspended for nearly a month after a civil rights group asked for an investigation into his Facebook posts about Muslims.

The Orange County Sheriff’s Office suspended Deputy Michael Johnson for 150 hours without pay after an internal investigation found he showed “unbecoming conduct” and “bias and disrespect” toward Muslims, according to a report obtained by the Orlando Sentinel in a public records request.

In a February 2020 post on his personal Facebook page, Johnson wrote that “Muslims are taking over America,” calling them the “most intolerant people when it comes to other religions,” the report said.

“WAKE Up America, ... the Democrats only care about a vote, but with this radicalized people take (sic) over the United States you will know why because we stood there and did nothing to stop this!!! Donald J Trump for president for another 4 years!!” Johnson wrote in the post.

When interviewed by investigators, Johnson acknowledged that the post was “offensive towards all Muslims.” He said he was “trying to describe a small percentage of radicalized Muslims that only represent a very small percentage of the followers.”

The investigation found Johnson’s Facebook page can be “associated” with his employment as a sheriff’s deputy. He has numerous postings with photos in his uniform.

Sheriff John Mina told the newspaper he updated the agency’s social media policy after taking office in 2018 and warned deputies he would not hesitate to give “very harsh” discipline for violations.

The sheriff said Johnson, a 20-year veteran, was also placed on three months of disciplinary probation prohibiting him from certain perks such as working off-duty or taking home his patrol vehicle.

He said Johnson had no other history of intolerant conduct.

The Sentinel reported that at least five other deputies reacted with an emoji to Johnson’s post. None of those deputies reported the post to the agency, and none said they had concerns with the post when interviewed by internal investigators.

Mina told the newspaper deputies have an obligation to report any policy violations they see while on duty, but said that is not the case for an off-duty deputy.

The investigation began when a civil rights attorney at the Council on American-Islamic Relations sent 10 screenshots of the deputy’s Facebook activity to the agency.

Attorney Taj Murphy wrote in his complaint said they were not out to censor the deputy’s free speech, but found it “concerning” that Johnson “has made hateful, racist, and anti-Muslim statements under the color of authority of the Orange County Sheriff’s Office.”

The sheriff’s office found only three of the posts flagged by the group, including the one that led to his suspension, needed further investigation, the newspaper reported.

The two other posts with “questionable content” involved Johnson’s comments about undocumented immigrants arrested in Wisconsin, and his response in a comment thread about high-profile sex abuse cases, in which Johnson argued that women sometimes lie about sexual assault.

Investigators determined those posts mainly “contained political statements or support of political viewpoints,” the Sentinel reported.

Murphy said he would still like to see the agency accept his group’s invitation to provide their Islam 101 training to deputies, as they’ve done for other law enforcement agencies in Florida, But he was happy to see that Johnson got more than just a reprimand.

“I applaud Orange County on their response to this issue,” Murphy told the newspaper.

Yeahhhh...not exactly the type of person we need enforcing laws. Slap on the wrist. I'd have been fired in a hot minute.

So the recent electrical power problem in Texas was caused by some irresponsible cretins dumping shit in a river 60 years ago ?

Spooky.

 

[UncleBuck]

I don't support republicans, democrats or any other political squirrels.

If government had never been involved, don't you think power generation would have been more local, as in many homes and businesses would generate their own or be part of a small scale local voluntary inclusion power co-op ?

Breakfast ? Yes, I'm having a squirrel omelet what are you having ?

no one here but a retarded pedophile would think that’s what he said

Nope. Didn't like Trump before he was elected, never liked him when he was President. He's unprincipled, wanted to "take guns first, due process second" etc.

I do like that he wanted to bring troops home and believe he was less evil than the Biden corpse will be. Biden has already started bombing Syria. Both are unfit and have psychological and pathological issues, your kind of guys.

 

[Rob Roy]

That's not an argument. I was giving him a break. Remember how I used to dismantle all of your lame arguments so badly you had to run away and cry yourself to sleep at night when I was done with you? Well, I didn't want to do that to some new guy.

 

[Rob Roy]

I apologize for flippantly responding to this same post previously. It's actually easy to argue that government and regulation are the problem in just about everything they put their slimy hands on.

I'll go first. Police interactions. Your turn.

Tldr

so were you being you being your usual dishonest, lying sack of shit self when you tried to claim that he said river pollution caused texas’ power problems, or are you really just that fucking retarded

I don't like the right's dismissive position on Russia. They probably hate us more than China, but with less economic horsepower.

 

[Rob Roy]

Russia has gold and lots of trees, pretty good chess players too! Siberia is beautiful, in a cold vast wasteland kind of way.

 

[mooray]

Probably why they don't mind global warming, it's like getting more country for free.
