Terms and conditions: Offer valid only for white or orange. Participant must be a republican or identify themselves as a republican. Offer not valid for women, children, and people of color other than orange, and poor. Don’t be poor.
The judge is trying to prevent any pretext to getting the case thrown out on appeals. It’s bullshit but having all this hard work go up in smoke because a brainless judge higher up found a tiny fault in an unprecedented case would be horrid.
It’s the natural implication of downplaying the seriousness of something. Saying other countries suck too is not only what-about-ism, but is directly diluting the seriousness of the offense.
“Everybody does it” is classic children’s logic and a fallacy.
If The Invisible Hand has bestowed you with wealth, clearly you are blessed among men, and the priests in their robes give you deference for your holiness.
Jokes on us: like police do all the time, if a judge wants to “find” such a fault - maybe by citing precedence from a thousand years ago? - then they will. Ofc there is no reason to make it easy on them.
There’s an agency near me that actually has the Magna Carta date on their patches. It’s humorous to think that many of them have no idea what it means.
Must be nice to be able to have a tantrum in court, yell at the judge, and then just be able to walk out.
I encourage everyone to try it sometime.
Do fries come with that Contempt?
Freedom to be in jail fries.

He might be one of half a dozen people who could get away with that in a US federal court.
I wonder if Elon could get away with it.

What a piece of shit system that cannot treat people equally… Fucking farce of a country.
While it’s very stark, I doubt you’ll find many countries treating their billionaires the same as their workers.
Having company doesn’t make it good or correct.
Who here said it was good or correct?

You’re putting words in my mouth so you can shit on a country on particular.
I think the statement is more of a “It’s difficult to avoid this problem” than an “it’s fine because everyone does it”
I think you are looking way too hard into it based on whatever preconceived issue you have.
Nothing you said has any baring on this particular issue.
Absolutely no one here has said what’s going on is good.
Did you miss the part where they are rich and connected thus better than us? /s

That’s not what the fucking “invisible hand” is! It’s what lots of idiots (not talking about you, just in general) think it is, but they’re wrong!

frankly, i’m shocked they haven’t tried to cite the Magna Carta yet.

Hrm, don’t start giving them any IDEAS now… :-P
If Trump launched his fatass onto the bench like that guy in Vegas Engoron would apologize to him.
