  1.  @Speakingintothevoid700  Suppose someone else did it. Are you comfortable with the idea of that person escaping punishment?

  2.  @wednesdayschild3627  My mother knew 50 years ago. But it's true, all sorts of things have been promoted by doctors.

  3.  @nektulosnewbie  Milgram is controversial, but most researchers accept the result as legitimately informative. I don't know about the other two.

  4.  @nektulosnewbie  I will! All of this research interests me.

  5. I don't like it, either, and my name couldn't be more different.

  7.  @darrylschultz6479  Oprah made Tolle a millionaire. Just like she did for the charlatan who invented The Secret (and committed negligent homicide), just like she did for Dr. Phil, just like she almost did for the Dugger who is a child molester. Did you think Bill Gates was some gift to humanity until about a week ago? Even though he tried to push Paul Allen out of Microsoft while Allen was undergoing radiation treatment for lymphoma? Or do you think people are jealous of Bill Gates, The Secret dude, Dr. Phil, or Ghislaine Maxwell for that matter, etc., because of their money? (If you think so, consider whether you start with yourself.)

  8.  @iannaughton9295  Well, um, does anyone see beyond their minds? Neat trick.

  9.  @darrylschultz6479  How do you know? "The only way" . . . How in the world would you know that? Why should obvious nonsense merit a dissertation?

  10. Listen to the whole video again. A friend asked me to suggest that.

  11.  @what_a_beautiful_noise  Conspiracy theories are used to make people with legitimate questions look stupid. I hope you see how that works.

  12.  @what_a_beautiful_noise  Everyone I know who is declining to get vaccinated at this time suffered an injury from a drug or medical procedure -- and not a trivial injury, either. Literally everyone. It is perfectly rational to be cautious after such an event. I plan to be vaccinated, but not at this time. And I agree, I refuse to be pushed.

  13.  @what_a_beautiful_noise  Being pushed should worry everyone! That is never right. :/

  14.  @zeusathena26  Thanks for confirming you're not worth talking to. Just another round of Them and Us, from you. That seems to enhance your self-esteem, pethaps? (You know what people of color who have been vaccinated say? "It's a personal choice." I haven't seen proper manners from anyone else in America in this century, and don't expect to. Not anymore.)

  15.  @ginalynn6963  You also misread what I said. You didn't understand my point about Epstein. Other, preposterous stories were floating around, and grabbing attention, when he was highly active in several states and Europe, with no scrutiny. The false, bizarro child trafficking stories gave the real perpetrator cover. You don't know how that works? Float false anti-vax stories, and the legitimate questions are silenced. Easy in a society with this mentality.

  16.  @TheJohnnyonthespot1  No, not until FDA approval and access to the 1986 compensation fund.

  17.  @gomahklawm4446  Not what I said. Juries find defendants guilty even in flimsy cases, so it's no surprise they convicted in THIS case.

  18. @chuckstable165 This is a tiresome discussion. Grande clearly did not read the jury instructions or understand them. The McGinnis instruction (innocent bystander) had sufficient evidence to convict. As for the speculation about the state of mind of the deceased concerning the good-faith but mistaken belief that he was defending people from an active shooter, there was actual evidence on that point -- the testimony of a living person, Grosskreutz. This is evidence. Huber's filthy house is not. There is no way to know why Huber did what he did. Let me put it this way: if Grande had speculated about whether Rittenhouse shoved his ex-girlfriend, or went to a bar with known gang members, what would you think about that? I would think it has no bearing on the case. It's extraneous. Huber was shot to death. Why is he fair game? The facts brought forward about him have no bearing on anything. And you have testimony from a living person to analyze, if you really think that it's important to determine whether bystanders believed Rittenhouse was an active shooter. The notion that they wrongly identified Rittenhouse as an active shooter because of fear of guns or misunderstanding of guns is laughable. They went after him. Therefore they were not afraid. Rittenhouse was acquitted BECAUSE those three all went after him. Poor performance.

  19.  @cglenn1457  Oh. You again.I didn't realize it was you, who bitterly protested that you don't want to converse with me! 😂

  20.  @therealdeal3672  Yes, I'm horrified by it. I don't mean to suggest it happened here. I don't know. But in any case it has GOT to stop. You hear normal, not drugged or drunken women say "I was afraid to say no," and normal, not drugged or drunken men say, "oh, I'm sorry! I thought I was supposed to." Neither is lying. Let that sink in. Infuriating.

  21.  @therealdeal3672  There is a website called "We Can’t Consent To This" in the UK with up-to-date information. That's what people need to know.

  22.  @margaretr5701  There is no such thing as "going against" the doctors. Doctors don't own us. You choose them, you consult them, then you decide. I don't say this because of the pandemic but because this is how my parents raised me to think.
    3
  23.  @margaretr5701  Oh, I see. I'm sorry. Anyway, YOU have the right, always, to decide on a course of treatment. It irks me when people (not you) seem to suggest otherwise. The burden is always on a doctor to obtain consent, not on the patient to justify themselves to the doctor.

  24. You should learn how to appear wealthy on a job interview, for example.

  25.  @xpsxps1339  "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor." Does that famous Commandment implicate remaining silent, too? Woe is us.

  26.  @mysteryjunkie9808  So, add in sadism? Ha ha, that's funny. You get sadism when you turn on the television or walk down the street.

  27.  @sarahholland2600  Oh thank you!

  28.  @sarahholland2600  I appreciate Dr. Grande's explanation of why Chauvin could have been charged with First Degree murder. Chauvin continued knealing for at least three minutes after being told George Floyd had no pulse, and did not immediately get up as paramedics arrived, or even when they exited the ambulance. You can form the requisite intent in that short length of time. Dr. Grande gave the clearest explanation of the significance of the timeline -- better than any lawyer I've heard. But I don't fault the prosecution for not charging something difficult to prove. I don't agree with overcharging in general, so . . . I don't want to change my mind now. Clarity inspires clarity, one hopes. :) thanks again

  29.  @michaelmccord8469  He slowed down. He signaled intent to pull over. It took exactly 1 minute 40 seconds, at the slower speed, to reach the gas station. "The chief himself said that type of stop . . . was justified." And we must believe the chief that two officers drawing deadly weapons was objectively reasonable at the time they were drawn -- at the well-lit gas station -- because . . . ? The chief doesn't have the last word here. The court will. At any rate, he quickly fired one officer for missing the opportunity to de-escalate, I believe was his explanation. Something to that effect. What is wrong with people?

  30.  @michaelmccord8469  "Was he readying his "kill the cops" gear? Was he loading up on drugs? Getting his (invisible, motionless) posse organized?" Or maybe he is a Kremlin agent, or Lizardman from the Andromeda galaxy. Anyone who entertains this line of thought needs a new line of work. American roads are not a war zone, and America is not a police state.

  31.  @michaelmccord8469  I stated I was a lawyer because the interlocutor claimed I knew nothing about the issue. Pfft. Typical trash talk.

  33. Thank goodness for this thread.

  34.  @SacredFire777  So she was petrified, momentarily frozen by fear ("fight, flight, freeze"), and thought dude was just a hookup. The culture has changed. I don't understand either extreme: blaming her, or finding some reason why this was "normal." It's not working.

  35.  @MEMELIFEBABY  We know what we know only because Dylan voluntarily cooperated with law enforcement and provided this information. She had the right to remain silent. Nor can you be sure that police took down her statement exactly as she gave it. She has no obligation to play to the Internet mob, and is probably smart to stay away. If a court subpoenas her, then she will testify, under oath, and we'll all hear what she has to say. As far as the story making sense, I agree that there are pieces missing. I can suspend judgment, and not assume the worst. Why do people feel a need to take sides? I will never understand. We don't have all the facts. As far as the press suddenly making up reasons why it is "understandable" that she failed to call for 8 hours, that does sound like a load of --- ----. I object to anyone trying to normalize "frozen by fear" plus "did not call 911 for eight hours." That is not normal. But a lot of people today are not normal. That doesn't mean they are criminals. This is a good time for parents to have a long talk with their kids about safety and what to do in an emergency.

  38. I like her. She's the only child of an only child. Once she started making money, she put her mother through school, for an MSW. That's not an ordinary girl.

  39. Gabby Petito's parents gave entirely different information on 60 Minutes Australia. Her mother said she never noticed anything abnormal about Brian, and that he would do things like read to one of Gabby's younger siblings. The mother was clearly not worried about him. She was not prepared for this. There are other possibilities here.

  40.  @peculiarlittleman5303  🤣 When I heard the report on the radio, my first thought was "snowflake." Well, I was wrong.

  42.  @shadowwolf7622  Well, in this instance, be VERY skeptical of bizarro anti-vax stories. The purpose could be to make all rationally hesitant people appear bonkers. That seems to be what's happening at least sometimes.
    3
  43.  @shadowwolf7622  This all makes sense to me. My only point is that there are good reasons and bad reasons to be opposed to taking this vaccine at present. It's not just a matter of declining, or siding with those who decline to be vaccinated. Your reasons are good reasons, in my book. If you receive better information about it down the road, you may reconsider. Of course that's reasonable. I am sick to death of Them and Us reasoning. And I am suspicious of the bizarre anti-vax stories. Using a false flag to manipulate people's emotions is not a rare tactic.

  45.  @juicyfruit4378  Then why did the UK court collaborate in this lie by ruling that she did have immunity? I time-stamped that statement. If it is wrong, provide a reference.

  46.  @juicyfruit4378  It would not surprise me in the least to find out that she, or any America, was driving drunk, or was a substance abuser generally. Where do you get the idea we are naive?
    2
  47.  @juicyfruit4378  But the court so ruled -- that is what was stated in this presentation, and I time stamped it. So, the high court is not independent? That fact is worse than this one crime.

  48.  @juicyfruit4378  If you worked as an independent contractor for the CIA or DOD or DHS, you know all of this conversation is being reviewed. Hence you do not work as such. I worked for a federal court. American judges are sometimes quite ideological, but they do not take orders from bureaucrats. As in, never. Anyway, blocked.

  49.  @davidtaylor4975  I don't understand why UK tolerates American spies in its country in the first place. British intelligence has an agreement to share all. I mean, let's take this issue all the way. I'm for that, no problem.

  50.  @davidtaylor4975  Even though I'm technically American, my father and my mother's only brother were both veterans of the British Army, WWII, and I'll speak up! I totally agree with you. What nonsense, too, when what is SUPPOSED to be a stable, cordial agreement to cooperate, to a good purpose (like, prevent terrorism? Save lives? I seem to recall that), is subject to the whims of the latest travesty to occupy the White House. Enough is enough.
