YourGFsnatcher:
thought you will bring some facts and disprove what I said but you just went ahead to blackmail me as a conspirator without any facts... how do you people do that.?
Facts are evidence, and not you just making factless assertions that lack evidence, and you wanting me to provide facts to disprove your factless assertions is straight out of the qanon playbook and is designed to waste my time!

Sorry, I'm not playing.

See Budaatum, here is a perfect example of someone not knowing what they are talking about because they don't understand US law/culture because they don't live in the US.
Are you equating buda with basilico the lying kraken qanon conspiracist?

He called you a liar, and you then go on to tell how citizens are called for jury service, having assumed he does not know citizens are called for jury service. And the reason you think he doesn't know citizens are called for jury service is because "they don't understand US law/culture because they don't live in the US". But have you considered that he might know but still thinks you are lying all the same, or is calling you a liar because he likes winding you up like he constantly does? After all, we've discussed 2 cases here very recently, both of which had juries. Or do you think he thinks those jurors who were peers of the accused were brought from Mars?

This is why I accuse you of gaslighting. But it now seems like you just create a narrative that fits your beliefs instead of considering likely alternatives.

Sorry, but I am not accepting your 'all swans are black' illogic a la, basilico doesn't know what they are talking about because they don't understand US law/culture because they don't live in the US, therefore buda doesn't know what they are talking about because they don't understand US law/culture because they don't live in the US. Its shoddy logic and lazy reasoning, and not what I'd expect from a Harvard graduate, and if this is a perfect example of anything, its one of how you wrongly infer and claim it was implied, and then fit the data to your wrong assumption, just as you repeatedly did with me. And all it does is say more about you than those you want to say anything about.

I haven't lived in USA, and neither have I ever been there, but I know citizens are called for jury service, and if I didn't know I could just decide to educate myself by googling it wherever I am, or just read a book about jury service in America, or even simply logically deduce it from the fact that a jury of one's peers must be citizens from one's community. And that's apart from the fact that I have done jury service three times myself and therefore ought to know despite never having been to USA.

And before anyone infers from this that I am defending the liar basilico, I mule his kraken 2000 times so that idea is disabused.

You don't have any UK stations? Aren't you in the midst of an election? I'm sure there's some interesting things going on where you live.
Best we got is throwing stuff at Farage I'm afraid. Remember him? He gave up campaigning for dump to come run for parliament here. And to be honest we've so had enough of the Conservatives that the Labour leader would have to stand naked and shoot a child in its mother's womb for him to not win this election.

So no. Nothing interesting here, sorry.

I heard if a gun dealer provides a contract that says "Upon purchasing this riffle, you agree you will not use it for mass shooting in the future" Mass shootings will stop in the United States.
Budaatum, the UK should introduce gun ownership since binding contracts can now be used to stop mass shootings.
Na. I don't think that's a good idea. If it works for knives though, like, on owning this knife you agree not to stab anyone, I'm certain we'd want it.

Mentally unstable in America don't lie. Don't ever compare us with your UK Canada and other places where people lie to cover their personal issues

We are a holy and righteous people
Oh, everyone know we Brits are unholy and unrighteous are going straight to hell. We got elections coming, and not one person seeking election dare mention God, despite the fact there's a church in every parish. If you are going to lie on a form though, you better make sure it hasn't got that Made in America AI thing, or just confess that you are "someone who is unstable and not rational". That way, no UK court can possibly find you guilty, especially if the judge is imported from the USA.

I think the form has a Made in America AI thing that stops "someone who is unstable and not rational" from filling a "form saying they are stable and rational".

It directly informs the DOJ if you lie on the form.

2 convictions Trump and Hunter by the same Justice dept. Fox news and CNN will try to bend themselves into pretzels convincing that one is just and one is unjust. One is right and one is wrong
Been watching MSNBC, and have found them to be much fairer on this. I do dread what I'd find on Newsmaxx and OAN though, as they are usually dump promoting pacs. Fox, well, I don't see their point to be honest, and the Jones channel is not even news but a diqhardener selling channel.

Marijuana is illegal federally. This was a federal prosecution. Hunter lied on a federal gun form. So, anyone who smokes marijuana should be prosecuted just as Hunter was. That is the point CNN is making.
Most see a difference between a schedule 1 drug marijuana and schedule 2 drug crack cocaine, so I don't see the point of the false equivalence.

And nor do I accept the argument that he was charged only because of whom he is, since the same argument can be made for dump's conviction in NY, which CNN conveniently did not make at the time, and even for Bobrisky's conviction in Nigeria.

illegal drugs are illegal drugs
CNN is gaslighting by making it sound like Hunter's drug was marijuana which many see as a less harmful drug and is legal in some states, and not crack cocaine that is not legal anywhere.

President Biden's statement on his son's conviction.

"As I said last week, I am the president, but I am also a dad. Jill and I love our son, and we are so proud of the man he is today,” he said.

The younger Biden, a 51-year-old Yale-educated attorney and lobbyist turned visual artist, has admitted to struggling with addiction for decades. His father said he can relate to the “many families who have had loved ones battle addiction” and he shares “the feeling of pride” at seeing a relative “come out the other side and be so strong and resilient in recovery” after overcoming alcohol or drug dependency.

The president added that he ”will accept the outcome of this case and will continue to respect the judicial process” while his son considers whether to appeal the conviction.

He also said he and First Lady Jill Biden “will always be there for Hunter and the rest of our family with our love and support.”

“Nothing will ever change that,” he added.
The only other thing he didn't say and which I wish he had said is, "no one is above the law".

Lmao.
I don't know why people will come on the internet and take everything so seriously. Yesterday, I visited the white house as protesters protest. Biden was glad to receive me as a guest and showed me around as long as I didn't take photos or record anything.
Me, I'm watching CNN emotionally claim a lot of people use marijuana for medical reasons, as if Hunter was using crack cocaine for medical reasons, lol.

Americans can make me laugh.

When anyone terrorises in UK we don't just turn our heads and let them be. Though, in contradiction of that, go read up about terrorist IRA and Sinn Fein their political wing who now can sit in parliament, to understand how complex the law can sometimes be.

In both cases Trump and Hunter, I believe the name of the defendant played a part.
Only my personal bias would make me believe what you believe.

While Hunter's case is straight forward guilty, dump should have been imprisoned just for his contempt and stupid antics during the trial, and it was his past position that saved him.

@budaatum, it took a lot of time but now the West has grown some balls and lifted the restriction from Ukraine to hit inside Russia.
You should ask the West why it took them so long.

Perhaps its because they did not have enough weapons yet considering they were not prepared for war.

Go study the Hitler War. It took the West a long time to attack Hitler's Germany too. In fact, Britain waited until Hitler had occupied France all of most of Europe, and was just across the Channel before they attacked Germany.

Who are they not considered extremist by? You?

I consider them murderers, which I think is far worse than considering them extremists. Unfortunately, I don't get to make the laws in Pakistan. If I did make the law in Pakistan, and if they were tried and found guilty, I'd make sure their penalty is death too. And not because they killed a Christian, but for the simple fact they killed a human being.
