Aside from that, I'm an armchair lawyer and court junkie and her testimony was about the dullest, clueless damn thing I've ever heard, except for all the "sovereign citizens." But they can be quite entertaining at times despite their idiotic legal theories.

Absolutely nailed it.

I saw a funny quip. I guess a NYPD spokesperson or captain said something about how they must be getting training from somewhere to have learned to barricade themselves in so well. The person highlighting it pointed out that these kids first got trained by their elementary school teachers as part o...

Why on earth not?? I refer you back to my discussion of conflation and resemblance. And the significant resemblance is due to the fact that the latter was ripped off from the former. That is your assertion. It remains to be proven. Then why did Nehemiah King say it was Spalding's work instead of sa...

That's a perfect description of how to exercise bias against those one disagrees with, for no good reason other than one assumes they are inferior humans. Not really a rational position, unfortunately. Sure it’s rational. Go to the author to ask what they intended something in their book to mean. D...

That’s what she told the judge in the hearing.

Don’t know how I missed that, except I found some of it difficult to hear.

She’s spent $300,000 on attorneys, two of which have left the case after working with her. And still she pushes forward.

$300,000? How do you know that?

I fear for her future on her behalf.

Just curious Smith said the word "Mormon" meant "more good" Wesley P Walters in his Mth said it mean "frightening" based as an adjective for "mormo" means hideus face or mask. or "Mormo (Greek: Μορμώ, Mormō) was a female spirit in Greek folklore, whose name was invoked by mothers and nurses to frig...

Why does either name need an explanation at all? Nephi is from Judges. Lehi is from 2 Maccabees https://www.kingjamesbibleonline.org/2-Maccabees-Chapter-1/#36 I guess this thread has me thinking, what is this book trying to explain at all? Sure, I guess more background information about the context...

Roland Martin does a great job exposing today's media for pushing this pro-Israel narrative. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i63gYmDPj5Q&t=735s Turns out the agitators at these colleges aren't the pro-Palestinian protesters, it is the outsiders coming to start trouble. We saw the same thing with th...

It is stunning how ajax18's blinkered thinking so closely resembles Jenn Kamp's recent court appearance. "Why can't I demand the same from my opponents that they demand of me, even though I obviously do not understand the laws or procedures governing this situation? Don't I get to decide arbitrarily...
