Looks like a bunch of yeses.

Man, how sad, prayers and strength for family and friends.

[Hidden Content] You are, as usual, wrong again.

Exactly

[Hidden Content] I guess it's entertainment for the dopey Trump haters. From the article: This past week Judge Arthur Engoron of New York State Supreme Court, the lowest level of courts of general jurisdiction, levied a mammoth fine of some $370 million, including interest, against Donald Trump for purported fraud under a New York statute. The term fraud is used loosely since no one was defrauded, an element of a cause of action under common law fraud, and no one was harmed, also an element, and there was no proof of reliance, another element. This is fraud "in the air," as the saying goes: no harm by no one against no one for no loss by anyone. No one testified that they lost a penny from the purported fraud, or that they would not have wanted to deal with Trump as a customer. No one came forward to complain, except Attorney General Letitia James. But more about this modern-day Torquemada later in this column.

I know all about the case, you’re the one that needs to read the article. Low information voters, smh, the demise of this great country.

I agree with baddog, you don’t even know what this is about, all you see is Trump, must be guilty. Not to worry, you have lots of folks just like you that have no interest in justice.

Very thoughtful from someone that started the thread with this post: For all you “free thinking revolutionaries” out there, I’m done with your fascist rhetoric and fawning after a chicken hearted wannabe dictator. This is my last post. Choke on it.(though I reckon few, if any of you have the guts to watch all of it). lol

Not if it was actually humor, which it was. You have a good evening, you’ve got enough issues to deal with without me adding to them.

lol, typical liberal, always mad with no sense of humor. By the way, you haven’t quit this place, your TDS simply won’t let you.

A wise man’s heart inclines him to the right, but a fool’s heart to the left. Ecclesiastes 10:2

Democrats make a mess of everything they are put in charge of.

Thanks goodness it's not true, would hate to lose an American treasure like the view, or the daily insight of the panel of geniuses.

[Hidden Content] 🤦‍♂️

He was the sabre-rattling bad boy terrorist of the day prior to that. Didn’t hear a peep from him after. There is peace through strength, sadly this administration can’t figure this out.

I didn't say you said no culpability, you simply said there were no convictions in Brandon lee's case and there probably won't be in this one either. If that's true, there is no culpability in the eyes of the courts. I look at it much simpler, you picked up a gun, pointed it at someone, pulled the trigger and killed someone. Maybe there are others you were depending on to make sure the gun was safe, but it falls on you also. I'm not arguing with you and I understand you are laying out "what ifs" from the legal standpoint.

[Hidden Content] From the article: The White House is halting the permitting process for several proposed liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminal projects over their potential impacts on climate change, an unprecedented move environmentalists have demanded in recent months. 🤦‍♂️

There were no convictions in Brandon Lee's case, right? That's what you said. Somehow a bunch of "professionals" allowed someone to be killed by a weapon that should have been safe. Same thing will happened with this case. More than likely no one will be held responsible here either...no culpability. 2+2 does equal 4.

Well, I guess anytime someone gets killed in a Hollywood firearm accident, there should be no culpability because there are no expectations for personal responsibility from anyone involved. Sounds good.

Myself, I don't think it's a silly argument at all to expect someone to be personally responsible for a firearm you are handling, even if you're a Hollywood elite. I'm sure Halyna Hutchins's family would agree. You shouldn't get to apply different rules for a crime and have no personal responsibility when you kill someone simply based on you being an actor with incompetent firearm knowledge. But, I'm sure when it's all settled, reasonable expectations won't be applied here.

But what are your thoughts on this, I understand it's a news article, but if true, the FBI seemed to be specifically looking to verify that the weapon couldn't be fired without pulling the trigger. What would cause them to do this besides preparing to dispute claims made by Baldwin.

Apparently the FBI didn't think his explanation made him look that good. [Hidden Content] From the article: For months, actor Alec Baldwin has said that he did not pull the trigger of a gun that fatally shot a crew member while they were filming in New Mexico. But new forensic evidence may tell a different story. The FBI recently finished and sent a report to the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Office, which is handling the investigation. Officials found that the weapon, meant to be a prop, could not be fired without pulling the trigger.
