Jury nullification should not be a banned topic. It’s perfectly legal and is the only direct way citizens can object to interpretations of the law. The very fact that the courts and government don’t want people to know of it is a testament to its effectiveness in cases where the public will opposes the government in matters of law. Particularly when public opinion differs drastically from a strict interpretation of the law, but most especially when citizens find a law, its often limited proponents, or its execution to be objectionable, unconscionable, cruel, or unwilling to take circumstances into consideration. It’s crucial for us to all understand our limited power over the government, especially when it’s acting in an oppressive manner, violating human rights, ignoring the principle of justice in favor of a literal interpretation, or is otherwise objectionable by the majority of citizens as opposed to the minority of lawmakers.

This is America, so unfortunately gun crime is just something there’s no fix for. 🤷

Elon has the charisma of stale white bread. Trump’s a gullible, narcissistic bully. Elon isn’t a strongman, he’s an awkward, weird nerd. Trump would give him a swirly first. However, it’s possible Elon is just smart enough to manipulate him like a little puppet. Gawd knows Trump is probably the easiest manipulated creature in possession of human DNA. The man must at least know how to fake charisma, many kids as he’s had.

True. For example we are all made of delicious nutritious meats.

Oh it’s a butterfly knife. Why the hell is it called “balisong” and who came up with such a stupid sounding name for it?

Great idea. Too bad corporate America will never allow it.

My mother had one of these. I got to use it as a hand-me-down as a teenager because my mother was abusive AF.

For clarity, the subject of the TV wasn’t the abusive part. Her rationale of “I didn’t have one when I was a kid so you don’t get to have one while you’re a kid” was. It didn’t apply just to the TV.

If I want to play a factory game where you need to build defenses I’d go play Factorio and maybe stab myself in the throat a little because that’s about how fun having to deal with enemies in a factory game is.

That’s why you always get it from their website. Never trust a LLM to do a search engine’s job.

Oh yeah, that got incinerated alright. The building, not the painting.

Well unless you like miniatures in which case you’re going to need resin

I don’t need to take drugs to suffer from depression and apathy. I’ve had that one for free since before 2nd grade.

I didn’t know there was an animal skull in my pelvis. Neat.

A lot of them are the same kind of people who don’t believe climate change is a hoax. You could convince them to believe that they could breathe cheese-wiz if their stupid God told them to.

Damnit Death, I asked for a dirge, not fucking Riverdance.

Here’s something else to gnaw at your brain: “corn” used to be a generic term for any cereal grain, and now only refers to the one group of crops. Also we now (mostly) only use “cereal” to describe the stuff you have for breakfast with milk. Which used to be just shitty puffed grains but now also includes all kinds of flakes and processed nonsense.

I hope these parents get their legs kicked out from under them. The kid cheated and got caught.

Things like this remind me that rich people have the absolute worst fucking taste imaginable. Assuming they have any taste beyond “maximally expensive” like they’re pre-modern nobility.

Don’t most medics have a sidearm? I know there are/have been pacifists & conscientious objectors in those roles in the past. But I don’t know what standard issue is for medics.
