I think bronto raptor was also making new accounts every few months, so it was probably very difficult to keep on top of.

I mean I'll engage in tough questions especially if my integrity is being questioned
I can email 100 politicians in a year, and I swear only the ones whose integrity I question get back to me.
Why not just let history decide if you have integrity and be unprotective of your reputation?

What is the purpose of adopting a diplomatic tone when dealing with people?
1. Is it a natural thing or did you train yourself?
2. Do you speak that way even with close friends and family?
3. Does having a diplomatic communication style make you inherently less trustworthy?

I offered Mike $200 a month to make me head mod, because I assumed that was huge money in his shithole country.Apatently he can't be bought for $200 , a month. Assuming it is worth more than $200 a month that I offered I would assume that means it could be valued at like $5000 .

@Danielle
You said that paying someone $2 an hour is exploiting them. How is it exploiting them if they literally risked their lives for the opportunity to make $2 an hour in this country? How is it exploiting them if they are desperate to work for those wages -- are you saying they have a better opportunity in their home country? Apparently not
I understand the argument. I was a libertarian a few years ago myself. This is a race issue to a certain extent. It's not white immigrants getting paid below minimum wage in terrible conditions.
Employers are not on equal footing with employees, like libertarian philosophy suggests. There is a very real power differential, and in terms of illegal immigrants the power differential is further widened, by the lack of opportunities for immigrants to find gainful employment.
You might be trying to infer something I am not. Illegal immigrants aren't our enemies. They are not bad people for trying to make a better life for themselves. They are doing things, I would hope I had the courage to do in their situations.
So when you say "do they have better opportunities in their home country", I feel like it implies I am blaming illegal immigrants.
We should help Mexicans and those from south America to form better national policies, so they don't feel the need to flee their homelands to start with.
One way you do that is by making things harder in the short term. The reason the Mexican government encourages immigration, is because it gets rid of dissidents that would throw out all the corrupt politicians and physically fight for a better country.
We have to help these people fleeing by refusing to be that escape valve and by working to pressure their government to stamp out corruption and encourage a better economy.
Allowing American companies to pay them wages that they can barely feed their families on is not a long term solution. Neither is allowing them to work extreme conditions that we ourselves wouldn't tolerate, just because we feel that they somehow deserve it, and we are doing them a favor.
These people deserve to be treated better. Women crossing the border are often raped and brutalized. Pedophiles pretend to be parents of kids they kidnapped from Mexico, we have men and women who are made into virtual slaves upon arriving in the country.
Anybody with empathy for these people should be discouraging illegal immigration. My number one strategy to attack illegal immigration would be to physically arrest employers who hire illegal aliens.

Given that one of any elected politicians main jobs is to represent and synthesize opposite and even mutually cancelling points of view, I don't generally fault politicians for hypocrisy
You do this by speaking in enough generalities that others can attach their beliefs to you, not by lying LOL. Though the media does usually spin those general statements to have the least charitable interpretation, it's still a good way to do it.
Preferably though, you just argue your ideals well.enough that the majority of people adopt them and elect you.

Until you are familiar with how Neville Goddard's teaching are radically different than other variants of Christianity, than you won't be able to criticize his religion I'm a competent way

But Trump's a real good Christian.
I'm not sure trumps faith is relevant to crenshaw.
I will say Trump was raised in a new thought church, with similar belief systems as Neville Goddard.

The election came down to all the backdoor recruiting I did ty. I will earn my props. I revived the dead for max to win this election
I personally know the effort in doing so. I slept probably 3 hours in the 48 hours of non stop PMing people and constant harassment to simultaneously win the election while keeping my campaign a secret.
Thank you for doing the hard work this time, I didn't have the time, but the site is better for your efforts

Look at motives. Why would a sociopath do that? Maybe a psychopath, but not a sociopath. Sociopaths are purely selfish,and doing something like that has no sjort term or long term advantages.
Not something a psychopath is likely to do either, because there is a clear motive since the perpetrator abused an innocent child.

@oromagi
So we agree that no hard evidence exists. We can also agree that its rational to suppose that Christ existed. My point is that in the absence of such evidence how can you fault an individual for claiming fiction?
In regards to crenshaw, he is being faulted for pretending to be a Christian when he thinks Jesus is fake, not for disbelief.

@RationalMadman
As somebody I'd diagnose as a sociopath, it doesn't surprise me you'd do that.
It doesn't surprise me that you don't know what a sociopath is. A sociopath though and outdated psychological term not in the DSM5, is somebody with an inability to feel empathy.
The empathy I have for my child, is the reason I would torture somebody who harmed him. If I lacked empathy, I could just move on with my life and do what is best for me, not some action that harms myself in the name of justice.

You just tell them to dig a hole, and hope they don't figure it out, because then you have to do the work. He'll, before they even do that though, I'm having them do some errands around my house at gun point and then digging their grave and I wouldn't make the death quick either. Maybe I will tell them that they won't die as long as they keep digging, just to see how long they can hold a shovel, and it provides them some hope as well.

@Stephen
There has been several cases of this in America also. Jurors just tend to not sympathize with that sort of victim, and find excuses to let the murderer walk. There was this guy who shot a pedo in Louisiana I think, in an airport and it was on video, with hundreds of witnesses at the scene. I think his name was Jody plaucet or something. He got probation lol.
Another time I recall that harm came to kids is some drunk driver hit kids that were pedestrians and killed then. When he was knocked unconscious from the crash, the father walked home, got his gun and blew the driver's head off, and his defense was that his gun was stolen from his house and coincidentally used to murder somebody that killed his kids. He got off Scott free.
Another case I saw, was some woman I n a courthouse, pulled out gun away from an officer and killed the murderer of her kid. She got off on the insanity plea, because she said an angel told her to do it.
I always keep these facts in mind if anyone ever harms my son. Not all juries act this way, but there is a good chance, if I give them just a thin line to find me innocent, they will.

I just realized something. You are simultaneously saying it is because of the 5th amendment and because of media training when I pointed out she didn't plead the 5th. This is called backpedaling.
Are you just trying to search for reasonable explanations that fit your world view, I stead of figuring out the real reasons for somebody's actions?

He said Jesus was a fictional character, I'm not sure he qualifies as a Christian. Probably just identifies as one, because it's impossible to win as a republican, if you are an atheist.

Both chose to be cowards with questions whereas both Wylted and myself answered the questions we got asked mostly.
This is actually true, we were both less selective with what we answered than any of the remaining candidates.
Seeing some of the ways, that airmax refused to engage in a few things made me think "well I should have conducted myself that way". Like when he was asked why he was better than you, and he refused to answer.
I thought, that was very classy, and I should have taken that tactic as well. I don't know that it would have gained me any votes, but it was certainly a more honorable approach

@oromagi
You know damn well, my views aren't reflective of the Republican party's.
There are a lot of democracies that fall, and the United States and other western countries ignore them.
Are you beliefs consistent, should we have military intervention every time a democratic country is threatened with a coup or invasion?
Or are you just arguing in bad faith, because you believe the Ukraine is significant in some way and just don't feel like explaining that belief?

You originally said that Biden is looking weak af, which is right. The only other option for him is to look like a war hawk, which is the perfect lose-lose scenario that Russia is capitalising on.
False dichotomy actually. Even without the massive media spin he would get, a person can legit be a tough on foreign policy, without being a war hawk or weak

If you mean they need to meet human rights criteria and such to remain under NATO protection (especially US protection) then yeah
I mean a U.S. president could tell them to manufacture criminal evidence a political rival was acting illegally, and they would have a hard time saying no, since the president is commander and chief of the military, and can insure any aggressive attempts by Russia go unanswered.

Just an example of liberal weakness from the article.
The U.S. and Russia held talks this month that failed to resolve the standoff between the two countries after Russia amassed more than 100,000 troops along the Ukrainian border. The U.S. has warned Russia of dire economic consequences should it invade Ukraine, including crippling economic sanctions.
“What Secretary Blinken is going to do is highlight very clearly that there's a diplomatic path forward,” Psaki said. “It is the choice of President Putin and the Russians to make whether they are going to suffer severe economic consequences or not.”
This is a simple solution. We shouldn't take it, but you put 100k US soldiers in the Ukraine, and you say, okay make a move. You can't stop an invasion by promising to slap a country on the wrist.

Trump was considered a Russian puppet, but Russia is now going to expand under both Biden and Obama, while they wouldn't dare do the same with Bush or Trump.
As much as I hate Neocons, at least Russia knows if they step out of line, they'll have drone strikes at Putins home.
While pointing out that liberals are weak, Is a fun truism, in all seriousness. If Russia wants the Ukraine, it has zero affect on the United States and we shouldn't have Americans die to protect the Ukraine.

To help out a bit. He is conveniently missing in a lot of very important close republican votes. So if Republicans have a heavy margin of victory or are guaranteed to lose on a bill, Crenshaw will always vote, but when it is very slim, he abstains. Repu license have lost by one vote on multiple things, because Crenshaw conveniently took the day off.

Because, as Danielle already explained to you, when you take the position of not answering questions on a given topic, you have to not answer questions on that topic. You cannot pick and choose which questions you answer because then every non-answer becomes what is called a negative inference
She didn't explain that. Also with furhman, he actually pled the 5th. I don't recall the FBI director taking the 5th, at all. it seems unique to the 5th amendment and the 5th amendment is treated different in LA county than other districts
