I have not abandoned anything. I simply know how to listen to this American leader.
If Trump said:
“Ask not what your country can do for you…”
You libs would be filing lawsuits saying that the president is violating your first amendment rights, creating a gag law that prevents you from requesting anything from the government. Maxine would be ahollering. Lib lawyers would be buying new Mercedes. Libs here would be screaming impeachment.
In recent weeks you’ve admitted to abandoning logic and now grammar.
Like I said earlier, you aren’t looking for truth, your looking for affirmation. As in: how can we make Trump statements say what I want them to say. If you don’t want Trump to be disconnected from reality or an abject liar, you have to do things like abandon logic.
I mean it’s pretty pathetic the lengths you’ll go through to maintain the faith in this man. I used to admonish him because he clearly didn’t respect your intelligence. It’s hard for me to blame him
If I want intelligence in someone, I won’t be looking on the direction of politicians . Even “statesmen” are best when just modestly endowed with IQ. Too much and they ponder things too long. Too much and they think that they should speak for and represent those poor souls in the middle of the bell curve. Too much and they think they should care for - like pets - the poorer souls on the other side of that curve. Even in the judicial and legislative branches, too much intelligence and next thing you know they want to become social engineers.
I’ll look for intelligence in scientists, writers, philosophers, historians, … and engineers
The U.S. Code of Federal Regulations defines terrorism as “the unlawful use of force and violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives”
What was The political or social objective of the Convicted killer?
Now if you say there was an objective I ask:
a grand jury had indicted Roof on 33 federal charges: nine counts of using a firearm to commit murder and 24 civil rights violations with 18 of the charges carrying the federal death penalty.
Why only charge him with murder and civil rights violations?
Or did they determine he didn’t fit the legal definition of commiting terrorism?
(In my book, and I’ve said this before on the other board – definition of terroris needs to be updated to cover things like this, the movie shooting, the cafeteria shooting in Cali, the night club shooting, shool shootings . . . . )
