  1. Get away with what? Having teen sex? Give me a break. Th whole thing is so ridiculous.

  2. @Emma Cabot I think we've had this discussion on another thread. As I stated, legally he was found innocent of rape. So were do we want to go with this?

  3.  @charliewinstonberg9884  Also, I don't think he got off easy. Statutory rape between teens is considered a misdemeanor offense in most states. So I wouldn't have expected an excessive sentence whether you're white or not.

  4. You are using the wrong yardstick. For mail-in , you have to have effectively cast your vote by Nov. 3 or it wont be counted.

  5. You're providing rhetoric, not evidence. That's what Trump voters are all about I guess.

  6.  @Sovereign-of-silly  Well as I said, I am not completely ruling out a missile. -Navy conducting exercises: I'm aware there were Navy ships in the general area, and claims of a naval exercise. But I don't recall ever seeing a proof there was an ongoing exercise. Can you direct me to that proof? -no 747s grounded: first off, this was not considered a 747-specific fault. 2nd, and directly because of this and other CWT events, fuel-inerting systems have since been required on new commercial aircraft. So the claim is not quite accurate or relevant. -tons of 747s have been standing in the same hot conditions with their AC on and none of them exploded?: This is the "only time" argument. But there have been others too: 9/11 was unique, no matter how you slice it. Same for Air France 447. UA 585 was so unique at the time that it was unsolved until another crash happened. The odds were millions to one. The dive of TWA 841 has never been replicated no matter which scenario you go with. Many other examples of one-offs exist, such as the BA 777 crash landing in London. Birginair was a first, and so was Aeroperu 757 crash. You can also make the same argument with the shoot down theory: first time in history US Navy friendly fire in the US off a major city. - but it's not explosive: Yes, but the argument is that the vapors were volatile. Different scenario. I've researched this and there's plenty of evidence that fuel vapors are indeed flammable. So that's another misconception.

  9. In every election dead people vote. Computer errors occur. Ballots get thrown out by mistake, or are overlooked. What all these Trump supports don't seem to understand is the nature of evidence. Dredging up every last tidbit of error, they demonstrate their inability to show us the proof that Trump won the election. His claim is, quite literally, pulled from thin air.

  10. Like everyone with a brain has been saying, SHOW US THE EVIDENCE, not of minor fraud and errors, which happens in EVERY election, but WIDESPREAD fraud. Are we asking too much? Is it unreasonable to ask for proof?

  11. There's not a shred of evidence that there has been a conspiracy involving at least 3 states that massive and widespread voter fraud occurred, capable of overturning the election. It's pure fantasy driven by a shameless conman. Move ahead with your life.

  12. Please provide the proof Dominion software was used to rig the election. Go ahead, give us the proof. The fact republican officials, such as the Pennsylvania judge who ruled against Giuliani, are themselves refusing to go along with Trump's psychotic dreams tells one a lot more than Sidney Powell's bizarre fantasies of a Martian invasion spearheaded by Elvis and the tooth fairy. Go ahead, embrace lunacy if it makes you feel empowered.

  13. Well, I see no reason to think this. Even Cathy Young, perhaps Woody's staunchest supporter in the media, doesn't think she's lying either. Some times we see what we want to see. There's no real smoking gun in her performance.

  14. You expect anyone to watch a 12 hour video?

  16. Good catch. But it's the kind of error that happens in every election. Rather than dredging up every last inconsequential mistake, why not provide the long awaited proof of widespread voter fraud. The fact you can only come up with this tends to confirm the obvious. The proof is nonexistent. Keep on dreamin.

  17. Especially the least trustworthy elements. Like truth sites.

  19. Just curious what would allow you to vote for a psychopath. Certainly the president's most recent behavior makes this rather undeniable. Even the Pentagon is alarmed, according to the latest headlines. And, if there really were such massive evidence of voter fraud, the media would all be flooded with it. There would be no reason to keep it secret. Giuliani would have long ago presented it.

  20.  @black1582  I'll take a read and give you my thoughts.

  21. You have no proof. That's what this is all about. Some people go by proof. Some go by dreaming. Keep on dreamin.

  22. Keep on dreamin. The Georgia hand recount proves the machines were accurate. Let's even agree investigations into Dominion is warranted. That does not constitute proof of massive voter fraud. No one has provided the smoking gun. Not even close.

  23.  @ebt-evolutionbasketballtra9119  I watched, and I am concerned like I am about all of our other vulnerable infrastructure. We are vulnerable to countless hacking weakness in cybersecurity, power plants air traffic control, you name it. None of these unpleasant facts contradicts the fact that there's no proof of massive voter fraud as of November 28. cheers

  24.  @ebt-evolutionbasketballtra9119  So you admit the proof is not yet in. Thank you. Now this Powell character is so whacked that even Trump disowned her. When a psychopath of biblical proportions wants to distance himself from Powell, what does that tell you? You are embracing crackpots.

  25. Perhaps he is. But if he was legitimately found not guilty of 1st degree rape, why should he go to jail? A 3 -year age difference makes you a predator? That's the part of the law that is silly, and indeed is rapidly changing as more and more states adopt age-difference clauses in their laws. What, you have to be exactly the same age to not be a rapist? It borders on the absurd imo.

  26. Maybe. But when you consider many of the details, the shoot down is also not without its problems, prime among them the unaccounted for 30-40 seconds by witnesses, suggesting a late stage event that looked a lot like fireworks.

  28. Zero evidence he's lying. No wonder you support Trump. He has successfully brainwashed you.

  29. The truth is, you have no proof.

  30. Well I would make an exception for Bryan getting 12 years. The reason for me is that he was not working totally in concert with Travis. It was Travis, not Bryan, who made the decision to aim a weapon at Arbery. I am fine with Bryan getting some jail time. But would you also give him 12 years had there been no shooting?

  31. I'll go there, but in the meantime could you give even one example of widespread voter fraud they mentioned?

  32.  @damaz5799  Just watched a woman continuing the technique of brainwashing Trump has perfected. She mentioned zero evidence in support of widespread voter fraud. Seriously, is this the best you can do?

  33. And here is a great post showing the amount of proof of widespread voter fraud: 0

  34.  @charliewinstonberg9884  I agree he acted badly, if not deplorably. IMO he probably did commit rape, as the victim is writing a book about it, and you don't do that sort of thing if you're lying. But the evidence in court was not strong enough. As to the issue of statutory rape, it depends on where one personally draws the line with age differences. But what I totally disagree with is using the stalking laws here. That is patently ridiculous, and an abuse of the law. They already knew each other ! And lifetime sex offender registry is just totally excessive, to me at least.

  36.  @themorosepittbull257  What you keep overlooking, from what I see above, is that the Ms admitted through their lawyer that they could not positively ID Arbery. The lawyer stated that Greg M described his that decision to make a citizen's arrest was based on a "hunch." The Ms did not know Arbery had been in the house before he ran by. Do you admit that the McMichaels could not positively ID Arbery?

  37.  @themorosepittbull257  Hmm, never heard that term before.

  38.  @themorosepittbull257  OK, I get it, thanks. But here's the thing, there's nothing dumb about JJ and Lillia's posts. Tell me where the dumb factor is in her/his posts. The facts are spot on. I see this poster as having an extreme interest in the story, and being very lawyer like about precise definitions. Maybe that seems excessive to some. But how does that ad up to a 50 cent Army, or indeed any type of troll?

  39.  @themorosepittbull257  "Is it legal in Georgia to detain a criminal?" If you mean citizen's arrest, they outlawed it after this event. It was allowed at the time, but it doesn't appear the Ms met the criteria for conducting one. That's been hotly debated, but having read the statute over and over, my opinion is they [edit] did not have this right. As Gregory said, it was based on a "hunch." Do you have the right to pursue a citizens arrest based on a hunch? I hope not.

  40. Why would you want to support a psychopath, one who invents claims literally out of thin air, like massive voter fraud? How does that work? Why do you believe in verified garbage?

  42. You have aptly described the situation. I agree wholeheartedly - no evidence of widespread fraud.

  43. Show us evidence of widespread fraud. Otherwise why not just say there's widespread fraud in every election.

  44. ​ @glennprice5569  You can't prove widespread fraud by what happened to a few friends. BTW, what was the exact nature of the fraud she witnesses?

  45.  @Alexander-the-Mediocre  And his supporters too apparently cannot tell the difference between a mere suspicion and actual evidence. It's a sad time for America.

  46.  @Alexander-the-Mediocre  This IMO is an unprecedented moment in US history. Perhaps for the first time we are witnessing the direct undeniable proof that half of America (US at least) is literally crazy. They cannot distinguish claims from proofs, civility from poor sportsmanship, dignity and poise from vulgarity. The basic mental capacity to discern reality from fantasy is missing. Never before have I seen anything like this on this scale. Have you? As USA Today said today, he does not behave the way rational, normal people behave. To declare victory on the basis of a mere suspicion is mental illness. His followers have been taken in by a con man who resembles a telemarketer more than a President. And in the above I am not using hyperbole. This is literally a rational balanced conclusion.

  47.  @Alexander-the-Mediocre  And the irony is that he and Melania were hoping to lose in 2016, at least according to Michael Wolff's book, Fire and Fury.

  48. So why did they remotely fly a plane into the dirt in Shanksville rather than into a building? Does that make an iota of sense, even for a twoofer?
