The more to the story is “the dark skinned man stood up to me and called me a name and my fragile cop ego can’t stand for that”

A judge can unilaterally decide upon a punishment, no matter how crazy/unconstitutional, then throw you in jail for contempt if/when you refuse? Could said judge asked him for a BJ? Demanded he clean the court’s bathrooms? IANAL, but such judicial carte blanche for speeding ticket adjudication doesn’t sound legit at…

krhodes1, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God…

I’m assuming this guy is not white given that he calls his daughter “boo.” What are the odds that an Alabama judge would have ordered a white defendant to write an apology note?

That boot leather must taste mighty fine on a Monday morning.

Thank you.  Such a weird handle for the other guy who is just peddling bullshit here.

Shut up with that noise. You know that argument holds no water.

That would actually be a great movie. Call it The Acorn.

So since Tesla is just doing what other shitty companies do, it’s all good?  I’ll never understand how people make it to adulthood with this mindset.  “Your honor, you cannot find me guilty of burglary because I know of several other people who have done it and gotten away with it.”

Here’s another fun fact: the employer almost always pays for malpractice insurance for the employed physician, regardless of who the employer is.

He says he’s a doctor but I don’t see any markings, white coat or stethoscope so I think it’s only fair for someone to pull a gun on him, force him to the ground, make him show his medical board credentials and his med school degree for good measure because everyone knows what’s going on in the US with people…

“In this country, you’re innocent until proven guilty” which is why I pulled a gun on an innocent man until he proved he wasn’t guilty. Flawless victory.

““And everybody knows what’s going on in this country with fentanyl and child trafficking and rape. Terrible stuff.””

Ah yes, those child traffickers who famously return children to their homes safely.

And very useful to point out that the mere “anti-civil forfeiture” = “pro-crime” connection that voters might make is an indication of just how absurdly stupid so many voters are. Hard to advance as a country when a large chunk of voters are just too stupid, irrational, and prone to dumbfuckery when making voting…

“the Constitution requires a timely forfeiture hearing”

ok, that’s a tiny fraction of your consumer spending. What about your food? What about your phone? Your car? Your appliances? Your electronics? Technically complex things that take a lot more resources to build and levee a heavier labor and material cost on the planet and on people. This is the weakest “buy ‘merican”…

“above and beyond” = Teslastan for doing the bare minimum, and only when insisting in public.

Not much of a US/world history buff? This is incredibly naive. The bulk of products you have in your house are made in China. Getting holier than thou about manufacturing location is weak AF. Go actively advocate for human rights, but don’t bring that in as a serious counter to a superior and cheaper product in a…

The solution for this, of course, is to permit these vehicles into the US market, assuming they meet the same regulatory and safety standards that apply to Japanese, Korean and German imports as well as domestically-produced American cars. If, as you say, the products turn out to be shit and the customer is indeed unfo…

Come on man. Capitalism doesn’t give a shit about where the parts come from. That’s a bad fucking faith argument to start with when literally everything you can buy now has pretty much stuff made from basically forced labor/slave labor (pretty much all of SEA and African manufactured components, and all the prison…
