  1. "Federal authorities became intent on jailing Capone and charged him with twenty-two counts of tax evasion. He was convicted of five counts in 1931. During a highly publicized case, the judge admitted as evidence Capone's admissions of his income and unpaid taxes, made during prior (and ultimately abortive) negotiations to pay the government taxes he owed. He was convicted and sentenced to eleven years in federal prison. After conviction, he replaced his defense team with experts in tax law, and his grounds for appeal were strengthened by a Supreme Court ruling, but his appeal ultimately failed" From Wikipedia.

  3. When I was working, there were times that I had to wear either a mask or respirator to protect myself from arsenic and other hazards. From experience: Masks must be professionally fitted in order to be effective. You cannot just throw on a mask or respirator and expect it to be effective. You cannot wear a mask with a beard! It must have a surface sans facial hair in order to seal properly. The only thing you get from an improperly fitted mask or respirator is a false sense of security. The coronavirus is much smaller than the N95 mask can stop. Cloth masks are little more than fashion accessories.

I'm sure that Engoron absolutely loves being schooled every day, knowing that his "guilty" verdicts will be overturned on appeal.

  7. ​ @frankmarino2953 Read what I wrote. I used to wear a mask for a living and unless they're professionally fitted all you get is a false sense of security.

  20.  @smeff099  , I did understand where you were going, and I figured that you didn't need my help to make your point. The "insurrection" of January 6 was hardly Beer Hall Putsch 2.0. That was better planned, actually had a leader, and both sides brought firearms. Participants in real insurrections don't go home after a few hours to watch themselves on TV. They stay and declare things like "Capital Hill Autonomous Zone" and stay until forcibly evicted.

  29.  Thomas Bachus  , as long as the Texas question remains unanswered; i.e., did six states violate Article 1, Section 4 of the Constitution, the results of the election remain suspect.

  30.  Barr Stool  , the Constitution reserved that right to the state legislatures, not the state's governors. Keep the ad hominem attacks out, OK? By the way, it's "Election Day", not "Election Season". Absentee ballots for good reason have been around forever.

  31.  Thomas Bachus  , OK, leading off with an ad hominem attack. I fault myself for not being specific. The case I referred to was Texas vs. Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. The Supreme Court dismissed it due to "lack of standing" but never clarified either who or what was necessary to obtain "standing". Every challenge was met with the same "lack of standing" excuse, whether brought by a State (Texas), a state legislature (Pennsylvania) or an individual (Sean Parnell). The issue here is whether or not these states violated Article 1, Section 4. Don't talk about "fraud" or "stolen votes", these issues have no place here. And don't call me a "traitor" either. My lone interest is in whether or not the established procedure, i.e., the Constitution, was violated. If the procedure was violated the results become suspect at best. And don't throw any "pandemic" excuses in either. The Framers spelled out the procedure for conducting elections. Nowhere does it state that if the laws and procedures become somehow "inconvenient" due to extenuating circumstances the Constitution can be ignored as circumstances dictate.

  32.  Thomas Bachus  , evidence wasn't needed to settle a constitutional question. That question was simple: Did Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin violate Article 1, Section 4, by having their state governors change the times and procedures of the election?

  38.  @computernerdtechman  40 years ago, a nuclear attack anywhere was a suicide wish, but I'm not sure anymore. The American press would begin talking about "what a tragedy this is, but innocent people can't be sentenced to die for the sake of retaliation". Biden would wring his hands like he did with Afghanistan and head to the beach.

  47. What's interesting is that Trump's relationship with the press and public resembles that of Spiro T. Agnew. The difference is that Agnew actually committed chargeable crimes, most notably, tax fraud. I wonder, if Pence was President and Trump vice president might it have become Nixon 2.0?

  48.  @bakeone4406  To your analogy, the holes in a chain-link fence (and a mask) aren't a uniform size and therefore the ping-pong ball (or virus "package") won't fit through some gaps but will fit through others. But that's with a professionally fitted, 100% sealing mask. If you're not able to get a proper seal you shouldn't even bother wearing a mask.

  49.  @sandyoi5301  Unless the mask or respirator is able to make a good seal against the skin, it's nothing more than decoration. Workers who need protection are forbidden from having facial hair *that interferes with the sealing of the mask against the skin*. The fact that you didn't get covid is proof that your immune system is active. Everyone has been exposed.
