I’m sure the small-town Gilroy Police and the Santa Clara Sheriff’s department have the President on their speed dial.

Well, to start with, we don’t actually share a border with Guatemala. And unlike Canada and perhaps Mexico (which we do share a border with) Guatemala lacks the capacity to actually be a safe third country for asylum seekers. 

They are just trying to figure out something, anything to undermine the ability of people to attempt to claim asylum.

You clearly do not understand what a drug is. A drug is defined as any substance that causes a physiological or psychological reaction in an organism. Some drugs, like penicillin, occur naturally. Other drugs are synthetically produced. Natural drugs are no more or less dangerous than synthetic drugs and if you doubt…

1. Creatine has not been approved by the FDA for use as a drug.

Plus, it’s not like he’s the mayor of Baltimore. Congressmen represent their districts in congress. They don’t run things locally. 

Because Finnegan’s Wake was written by one of the world’s greatest masters of the English language with the intent of being incomprehensible to the average person.

I also don’t understand why he thinks that a congressman is responsible for the state of his district. Congressmen are elected to represent the interests of their districts in Washington. They are not elected to fix local problems.

While I am sure that there is something embarrassing in Trump’s tax returns, probably related to how much less money he has than he claimed or the source of the money, the idea that his official tax statements somehow contain some kind of smoking gun of malfeasance is just not realistic. If it did, the IRS and the New…

Well then, I suppose like most people and things in Florida, the legal definition of theft is grossly ridiculous, aberrant, and will continue to make Florida the laughingstock of the nation. 

Before the creation of the Department of Homeland Security, they used to be part of the Department of Transportation. They are a federal law enforcement agency, so they only fall under the Department of Defense control when they get deployed overseas (somewhat like the National Guard).

The Coast Guard is part of the Department of Homeland Security, not the Department of Defense. 

It is not 100% clear yet, but more than likely, the people who will lose out are the men and women in uniform. If Obama used the excuse of a fake emergency to do an end run around congress and diverted money from the military, there would have been a huge outcry.

This comment is a great example of the Dunning-Kruger effect.

They had a systematic anti-Trump bias greater than their reported margin of error. In an election that ended up being decided by those three States, it was a pretty significant factor in underestimating his chances of winning the national election.

Counterpoint: It works if the politician actually has at least a modest amount of actual musical talent.

“ That’s their whole point, to provide you analysis of scientific research in a completely unbiased way.”

I’m not sure how much I would trust a commercial website whose goal is to sell you an opinion. Most scientific studies are conducted by non-profits and published in scientific journals. Significant amounts of that research is behind paywalls. Even if you have access to the research and are well-versed in statistics…

I’m not sure what laws you could be charged with, but certainly not theft. Theft requires that you attempt to permanently deprive the owner of their property or of a major value of the enjoyment of their property. That’s why joyriding exists as a crime, because you cannot charge someone with grand theft auto just for…

It depends on whether it is on public or private property. If it is public property in California, they might not tow it, because it is not blocking a private driveway or the sidewalk. Heck, in San Francisco, sometimes they don’t even tow vehicles parked on the sidewalk. A lot of times, they’ll just issue a parking…
