Did you see the part where the prosecutor told the Judge that ICE had the wrong person, and that he was not an illegal immigrant at all? 

Well, yes - criminal trial level evidence rules are designed to ensure fairness and reliability.

It’s not a case or criminal trial.

Right now, the accused isn’t even allowed to cross-examine witnesses (not just the accuser).

Yea, I think they probably think - good riddance, just losing free customers anyway.

Well in the past yes, which is why that has been cracked down on in current evidentiary rules.

Sexist I know, but It’s actually not uncommon for defendants to have female attorneys in sexual harassment/misconduct cases, an part of that is because they can ask those questions but come off better. So, it’s actually more likely to be a woman asking these kind of questions nowadays than a man.

Yep, normal evidence rules in court prevent bringing up sexual history in most circumstances.

In principle, I don’t see anything wrong with allowing cross-examination - just make it subject to the same rules for all sexual assault cases (in which past sexual history is generally NOT allowed).

You can do both. Or offer suggestions for policies to address the root of the problem, if you think it’s something else.

That’s not misleading.

Aren’t those straps adjustable in length? So it makes sense to include one long strap that could be worn cross body, which can just then be shortened to be single shoulder.

You know your numbers add up to $25.65 for the 45 mile trip (in line roughly with the IRS numbers), not $103 right? no idea how you got to $103 or $2.31 per mile. (and that’s with $35k for the car cost, vs. say $19k for the cost of a more normal honda civic. $35k is like an Audi A4 pricing - not the kinda car people

No idea, I subscribe to the same philosophy as you.

How are those dinosaurs....they just look like pot stickers...

There is a disconnect here because the Amazon jobs also seem very desirable (to the point that contractors are fighting to get them).

which...does save parking spaces in the most congested areas. 

It’s not. But there are regulations and laws to ensure that the towing is proper, and that it is indeed for cars that are illegally parked.

I’m assuming they aren’t reviewing every single picture. But, if a scooter gets impounded or fined, then they can just check the last person who used it, check your photograph, and if you parked it “upside down in a handicapped spot” they can then just charge or fine you.

I think Sanders would have been strong in 2016. That was an election where, essentially the platform that Trump won on was - the old establishment is stagnant and not getting anywhere, let’s try something new and unconventional. In that context, Trump or Sanders would probably have had an equal shot.
