Air traffic control directions can absolutely be overridden at the discretion of the pilot if the pilot believes his aircraft is in danger.

California isn’t trying to dictate federal law. They are trying to regulate emissions in their own state, only. Other states don’t follow their lead because they are required to by federal law, and CA isn’t trying to make it so.

You still think everyone on this thread believes that you aren’t a die hard Trumpette. ROFL.

You’re just speaking drivel. I never said gay people don’t fall in love. I never said all people who are in love are delusional.

As I said before, you’re just a troll, and regardless of how much you claim to be a “leftist”, it’s pretty clear you are a Trump supporter

I mean, you’re right. But that’s what the original poster was getting at. Philadelphia isn’t the kind of place that’s going to attract the marquis free agents just because there is good young talent.

This guy won’t be missed much, I can agree with that.

Go ahead, name the big name free agent that has signed with Philly recently. I’ll wait.

Philadelphia sports fans are awful. Maybe not all of them, but every one I’ve ever personally met at a sporting event has been. Is that why big name players don’t want to come to Philly? Maybe it’s part of it. Maybe it’s not. I…

What Philadelphia sports team, exactly, is a hot free agent destination for superstars? If there is evidence that there is a sports team in philadelphia that frequently gets the best free agents to go there, I’ll apologize.

Those people obviously forgot how terrible philadelphia fans are to players and fans of every other team in the league.

They also forgot that players for other teams are normally present when philly heckles and boos its own players. No one wants to come and join that when they have a choice.

The manner in which you used the word leftist is what made it an attack. The word itself is not a negative one.

Look! The tried and true “I know you are, but what am I?” defense that is also frequently used by Trump supporters!

Show me where I ever said anything about gay people being delusional. Sometimes people in love can be delusional about the person with whom they are in love. That’s what I said.

Riiiight. So, you’re a leftist that just so happens to defend the actions of Donald Trump with great gusto. That makes sense.

Fair enough. I still feel like using the word leftist as an insult to attack someone shows that person’s leaning pretty clearly, but perhaps people to use it to self-describe more than I realized.

And for the record, as you have suggested multiple times, the joke is not “hahahaha, Trump is gay!” The joke is “hahahaha, Trump is in love with Putin!” It isn’t funny because they are both men. It is funny because one is the self-described strong, tough leader America needs, yet any time he is around or talks about…

This person has been trying to set him/herself up as a sympathetic liberal, but that one word shows where he/she is truly coming from.

He’s a right wing troll. No one on the left calls anyone leftists.

The intention of that quote was to paraphrase many descriptions Trump has used to talk about Putin/Putin’s actions that fly in the face of commonly known and verifiable facts.

I put it in quotes because that’s a commonly observed thought in people like I am describing who are enamored with a dirtbag. I didn’t intend…

People in love are frequently blind to the lies and bad actions/red flags of the person they are enamored with. Trump believes Putin’s lies and ignores bad actions, like his annexation of the Crimean peninsula and murder of political opponents/media members who write against him, basically because “he’s different when…

Except they are behaving exactly like they are in a romance. That’s the point.

Why?
