After they've been infiltrating black activists for decades, right?

I guess you are yet to learn that snakes sometimes bite their owners. It might make you resist owning one as a pet.

when racism in the US was at the forefront, Yes. BLM is not good for anything so is Antifa. the same energy they put on any group labeled right-wing should be put on those group that has caused so much damage than any group they label right-wing could ever dream of.

but its a shame you are going very far back. like i say, equal justice for all.

you are still holding on to this yeye train of thoughts. again, this case proves my point that the innocent plead guilty... Basilico also made it know to you of what happened to Michael FLynn
Ben, I am not in any way disputing you can plead guilty for a crime you never committed. Try South Africa under apartheid and you'd find tons. There is lots of evidence out there to show many do, and I believe I posted the story of people jailed for murders they never committed who would have been death sentenced if not for death sentence abolishment that the wrong person might be killed for a crime they pled guilty to but had not committed. You can't however use this as those pleading guilty are innocent, as you are trying to do, this is not lawless South Africa.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, if you plead guilty to a crime you never committed, you are either toying for a lower sentence having committed a crime, be insane, or must be prepared for the price you must pay for being weak.

Do know that pleading guilty to a crime you never committed is the same as confessing to a crime you never committed. It happens.

Ben, please know that I always go as far back as historical record allows me. Not doing so is tantamount to covering one's eyes and claiming one sees.

If antifa and BLM are found to be what you claim, I'm sure the FBI will get to them in due time. I'm just personally delighted they are currently directing resources to far right groups, since they are a bit more of a problem.

you are not disputing me but spend hours going back and forth with me about pleading guilty. okay... at least we are on the same side. i just don't know why i was looking for cases to convince you when you were not disputing me. silly me.

there is always a scope to my discussion. going far back falls out of the scope.

the FBI has been politicized and this happened around obama. during bush they were not targeting Right or Left wings. they targetted muslims... now they don't care about any group except anything they label right wing

It wasn't a typo, you liar, it was your usual kraken! You make many "did not see that one Was a typo", and whenever I check I find it to be a bamboo from qanon.

Perhaps you should check before posting kraken. It would reduce your "did not sees that one".

FBI was the premiere investigative agency. They don't bother investigating democrats , but a GOP member is investigated to the fullest extent.
I think the democrats will rig Nov elections because a lot of stuff they have done will be uncovered.
Like the FBI once you commit crimes you do your darn best to cover it up whether its sending innocent people to jail.

I've included below what happens to those who let scopes be set for them. Just change government to scope and you'd hopefully realise you don't set scope for anyone else but yourself.

You like arguing, Ben, even about things we should agree on. It seems you need me to be on the other side of every point so you sometimes start arguing even before my opinion is expressed. And when it's not, you'd argue anyway. I do find it rather amusing, I must say.

Imagine arguing that some people do not plead guilty to crimes they never committed, lol. Then imagine some trying to claim one who pleads guilty to crimes they are accused of is not guilty.

Approach issues with an open mind not from a liberal POV
There you go again with your "did not see that one Was a typo"!

Your "typo" is actually on everything you say, bas. Only fools believe anything you write without cross checking with the facts.

I am waiting for you to provide evidence for "you are the one who believed that the Whitmer case suspects were guilty", please. The buda I know does not believe nor pass judgement on cases buda knows next to nothing about, and no amount of claiming the kraken you believe is in buda's head will ever change that.

Your inability to reason shows. Is the new bamboo, Putin went to war so oil price would rise and strengthen the Rouble?

You'd be the same one shouting Biden's inflation, but sees the economy of Russia doing well. Do you expect Russia to be immune from inflation forced by sanctions on top of the world inflation, bas?

well, you have been arguing for months that people do not plead guilty for a crime they did not commit. you are making the case for the FBI that they are not coercing people to plead guilty.

stop acting like you have been sensible all this while.

budaatum:
The beauty of the American legal system is you can appeal instead of plead guilty to a crime you never committed, and if the prosecutor acted improperly you can even sue for loss and hurt and damage.

he and ibime have this tendency to not believe in reality. it is what it is. the ruble has regained and the sanctions are not effective as i have said. even if they are, the maniac will not care. I still support the sanctions but not the nonsense one these spineless Europeans and zoo animal in the white house are doing. they need to do better and not patronize Russia at all.

budaatum:
And as I said, sometimes. But assuming a Jan 6 insurrectionist pled guilty to an insurrection they did not commit is what a brainless person would claim because it just isn't the only reasonable thing to do.

You yourself have repeatedly claimed here that Jan 6 was not an insurrection, and I'd expect you to defend that thought till the day you die, but if you ever decide to change your mind and plead guilty to insurrecting on Jan 6, please do mention me so I don't miss it.

Somehow, I feel that if you are charged with a crime you did not commit, pleading guilty will be the last thing on your mind regardless of the cost of defending yourself, but please inform me how wrong I am about you so I can conclude that most people are not weaklings like you.
Basilico and I argue that the seditious charge brought upon an oath keeping could be one of the tricks the FBI does since he is pleading guilty. they might have given him a deal that he will like to take so they dont overload his life. they have done it numerous times even to michael flynn.

you were the one arguing crap that people do not plead guilty to a crime they did not commit. at least that is the last thing they will do. you are wrong.

Basilico and I know what we talk about and you are obviously clueless.

so again. I will say unless the FBI charge others with seditious conspiracy, the guy that pleads guilty is just someone they are using as a tool to trick easy folks like you.

people who like to follow the truth know the kidnapping case was a setup... you and ibime will just go around hating on a strawman instead f following the truth.

Oil is one big money earner for Putin, when prices are high he gets more money.. The west wants huge reserves that Ukraine has. At one time Shell had started drilling for oil then Russia meddled and they closed shop.
Russia gas to Europe was solely delivered through Ukraine who started charging very high prices. Putin built other pipelines though the Ukraine one still used.. contractual arrangements,
Again NATO wants missiles in Ukraine which is a red line for Putin.
The west egged on Zelensky to join NATO which is another red line for Putin.
Main reason. If the Ukraine gas is exported to Europe Russia loses a lot of revenue.

Putin did not go war so that oil prices rise. Stop behaving like an assignments teacher marking every comment.

In your opinion why did he go to war?

Plus the democrats can label the protest as an insurrection. Some case was dismissed this week because the guy was able to prove its the police who opened the doors for him. He did not take a plea, case went to court.
Democrats are evil people.

And by the way those protesters are being accused of disrupting an official proceeding. In reality the session had been suspended because two pipe bombs had been discovered. FBI has photos and CCTV footage of the guy who planted them, he has never been arrested.

it's in their playbook. how they manufacture a kidnap plot against a governor so they can use it to smear trump and push their narative that anything they don't like is a terrorist.

remember how the FBI label parents terrorist and investigated them for simply questioning whats going on in the schools.
