Poor Hunter! Was he prosecuted because he lied when filling out a form, or because he is the President's son? Is he being condemned because at the time he had a drug problem? Should someone have intervened to stop him buying a gun before it happened?
As for the trial -this one is a vindication of the justice system, that other one proof the US is a 'banana republic', etc etc.
As for the Uvalde shooter....

The one term,twice impeached,four times indicted convicted felon,domestic terrorist leader,fraudster and grifter in chief Donald Trump claims he can't be a racist because he has many black friends,we all know that's bullshit. Here is what Donald Trump said about African Americans over the last 35 years: Took out an ad in the New York Times calling for the death penalty of the Central Park Five,and when the CP 5 were cleared of charges,he didn't even apologized and still thought they were guilty,made false claims that former president Barack Obama wasn't born in the United States,calling african american athletes sons of bitches and referred to predominately african countries as shitholes. And other despicable and disgusting comments he has made about African Americans. And Donald Trump can claim all he wants he's not a racist,but he comments says he is a orange racist pile of shit. And also members of MAGA Party welcomed him with open arms and fully embraced him,when he returned to Capitol Hill yesterday to meet with them.
More arcane sophistry from the Supreme Court decision on Mifepristone-
"A unanimous Supreme Court on Thursday swatted away the current challenge to mifepristone access without reaching the merits of the case. Justice Brett Kavanaugh, a member of the court’s conservative wing, wrote that the anti-abortion doctors and groups that sued over the drug didn’t have standing because they were not injured by its use"
But this is just as interesting, from the Circuit Judge-
"Earlier this month, Kacsmaryk blocked the Biden administration from enforcing in four states a federal rule that requires people who sell firearms online and at gun shows to conduct background checks on their potential customers."

America, mad about guns, and basically, mad. Will it ever change? Don't think so.

Abortion, IVF, Contraception, 'TransgenderISM'. Same-Sex Marriage, and now
Divorce...
"They’ve come after abortion. They’ve come after birth control. They’ve come after IVF. Now it looks suspiciously like far-right Republicans might have a new target: no-fault divorce. If a certain subsection of Republicans get their way, obtaining a divorce in the US might soon become a lot more difficult."

So the 'Ten Commandments' might have originated as 'God's' rules for the Jewish people, but now they are part of the Foundation of the United States, and therefore must be displayed in schools in Louisiana. Not sure which version they are using, presumably the one that is translated as 'You Shall Not Murder', rather than 'Thou Shalt Not Kill', a get out clause for all those State and Federal bodies that despatch Death Row inmates to Kingdom Come. The historical argument is rubbish, but I guess if this is what the Republicans in swampy Louisiana believe, facts are not going to get in the way of their tyrannical imposition of religion on the State's children.

"If you want to respect the rule of law, you've to start from the original lawgiver, which was Moses" (see previous post).
I thought God was the lawgiver, Moses was merely showin' folks what God done writ on stone tablets. It also begs the question, if the Old Testament is to be the source of law in the USA, or Louisiana, does the rest of the Old Testament also become the source of law -on incest (permitted), on male masturbation (ejaculation forbidden), on adultery (stone 'em to death)-- ?
Something tells me the Guvnor ain't all there, mentally. Storms a coming. Focus on what matters.
So what happens if someone BREAKS a Commandment? And should this Foundation of the United States not also inform the American system of Law, and PUNISH people who BREAK the Commandments?
For example, if a man commits ADULTERY, should he go to prison? Should he be stoned to death?
What if he FRAUDENTLY acquires another man's property, for example, by FALSIFYING business records?
The man who trumpets the TTC! loudly may be careful what he wishes for. Though from what we have seen so far, there might always be an exception to the rules, like, for the man sent by GOD to cleanse the country?
