There’s a documentary about the making of the original movie, and it’s really cool. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4902012/

Excellent response, thanks for taking the time to write that out! I hadn’t really stopped to consider the ramifications of being sandwiched between a ruthless cross-examination and the transcripts of police interrogations during which you were under extreme stress and discomfort if not outright duress.

There are vast resources discussing specific implementations for reducing taxes and/or the scope of the government. ‘Libertarian’ describes a spectrum, not “the ultimate take my ball and go home philosophy”.

“our geopolitical presence” is something that we could stand to reform, if not drastically reduce. The fact that they unquestioningly champion an ever-expanding military empire and insist that, if we want to have public education and healthcare, we must continually increase taxes, is one of the major issues many of us…

Your salary / wages pay for your food. Is an ever-increasing salary the only conceivable way you can afford food? No. If you suffered a career setback, or decided to retire, and your income decreased, you’d maintain certain spending levels in some areas (food) while cutting other areas (Gucci loafers).

Yep. Bastiat’s broken window fallacy. Not all jobs / work represent productivity.

Still trying to blame the ‘libertarians’ (anyone who suggests that we rein in the federal budget, apparently) eh? That attitude has worked well over the past years — might as well double down now.

All of those are partisan positions.

If you’re ‘innocent’ then your testimony, I’d imagine, should be an asset for your defense. But barring testimony in criminal trial, can’t you still be compelled to testify in a civil trial?

I can get behind the required testimony. I can’t get behind ‘the burden of proof is on the defense’.

that’s the system we have and as bad as it is you gotta back the lesser of two evils

Go for it! We’ll be here waiting to nitpick more issues that aren’t addressed in the way we personally hoped.

If Blackface = Tan Skin then I spend half the year in Blackface. I blame the sun, and my fondness of doing thing outdoors. If Blackface = lower exposure then I’m in Blackface in half my pictures. I blame cameras. If Blackface = cosmetics to darken the complexion, I’m innocent! Unfortunately most of the females I know…

We have the world’s highest incarceration rate, largest military, and highest per capita gun ownership by far. Some of us are “welcoming and loving” but, as a general rule, America is a pretty dangerous place, especially for ethnic minorities / lower socioeconomic status.

On behalf of the (mostly)White Male contigent:

Feeling violated after the fact, but not before / during, is where it gets tricky. Literally every single sexual encounter, in any circumstances, could be considered sexual assault if all that’s required is a change of heart after the fact. The issue of consent, therefore, is key. Luckily the event was filmed. In the…

Here is how you prevent others from ripping off your designs / IP for their own profit: trademarks and copyright. Unless you can demonstrate that your culture holds exclusive rights over things like “fur vest” or “colorful triangle pattern” or “headdress” then you have no legal basis for blocking others from using…

Like everyone else, I’m appalled that he gets 19 years for stealing a phone. No wonder so much of our adult population is languishing in prison.

I’m a pretty big survival horror fan... tons of RE games, Dead Space, Last of Us, STALKER, etc. I played Evil Within and found it okay, but a) a little derivative and b) a little over-the-top with the silly Japanese style ninja / giant monster type characters.
