ROFL at the idea that Republicans give a flying damn about pedophilia or kiddy porn.

Virtually all of the US politicians arrested for such crimes in recent years were all Republicans.

This is all about another opportunity to attack a person simply because she's black.

Well, don’t forget that the Party needs to dog-whistle to its QAnon base, to keep them interested at the ballot box.

Or what about the case in Canada …

I don’t think that the US justice system and our Supreme Court has much to do with Canada.

Non-violent crime ought to be treated less punitively anyway.
Really? Because there's a large number of January 6 protesters who were guilty of nothing more than trespassing and they have been in a separate political prison under far worse conditions than our normal prisons for almost two years now still waiting trial.

Or what about the Dad who had the temerity to speak out of turn at a school board meeting when calling out their lie that no sexual assaults had taken place by transgender students in the girls bathroom in Loudon County Public Schools. The leftist prosecutor said the prisons were overcrowded as well, but she certainly found room for a political enemy in this case. In the view of Merrick Garland, this man is a domestic terrorists, while the Ft. Hood radical Islamic terrorist was guilty of nothing more than workplace violence.

Or what about the case in Canada where a father was jailed for refusing to use his transgender daughters preferred personal pronouns. Is that violent crime?

Was lying to the FBI a violent crime? Yet Michael Flynn would still be in jail today were it not for a presidential pardon. Roger Stone, etc the list goes on. Maybe you should amend it to say only liberals who commit nonviolent crimes should be free of incarceration. Democrat political opponents should have the justice department weaponized against them in the most severe penalties possible.
Do you keep a grievance journal?

If so, you need to correct it. Canada man was not jailed over pronoun use. He was jailed for contempt of court after he repeatedly doxxed his own kid, his ex, and his kid’s caregivers in violation of a court order.

And Louden County man?
Scott T. Smith, 48, of Leesburg, was charged with disorderly conduct and obstruction of justice. The sheriff’s office says he physically threatened someone and then “continued to be disorderly with the deputy” and resisted arrest. He was released. It wasn’t immediately clear if he had a lawyer.

As I’m sure you’ve said about black folks — if they’d just follow law enforcement’s instructions…

And about that jail — it’s not a separate political prison, and the defendants aren’t political prisoners. Not only that, the poor, mostly black folks that are held there have complained for years and years about the conditions. Not until whites folks had to stay there did the awful conditions get any attention. Classic whites privilege, dude.

If you’re going to inflict us with your grievance porn, can’t you at least make sure it’s accurate?

You can't have checkmate when one of you is playing Chess and the other is playing Parcheesi. Ajax doesn't care about your silly chess rules.

So, I would say that I tend toward the liberal point of view on this stuff, but I can't believe we are taking the word of law enforcement at face value here whereas we would definitely not take it at face value if this were a situation involving a perceived wrong done to a minority civilian.

In any case, the whole issue involving transgender kids is a very difficult one. We don't let kids drive until they are 16. Many things they cannot do until they reach the age of majority, and drinking alcohol is only allowed even later (21). All of these markers of maturity and the ability to make important decisions have been enshrined in our culture for some time. Suddenly, everyone is asked to accept that a child makes a decision about their physical gender being confused at birth, and someone who was believed by peers and the community to be a boy or a girl is now saying they are the opposite.

The issue for me is partly what we can reasonably expect the average person to be able to wrap their head around. On the extreme Left we have people treating the confused citizens like they're monsters for not simply falling in line with this huge cultural change. I think that is unrealistic to the point of being terribly naïve. I can completely see why it is that parents are up in arms about bathrooms and sex education. It is not because I agree with those parents; it is because I know that cultural change of such a profound kind does not happen overnight and bring everyone along calmly.

Honestly, I am tired of the shouting and finger-pointing on both sides. I am both tired of the insistence that everyone follow Iron Age morality as found in the Bible, and I am also tired of people demanding that everyone leap forward suddenly or be labeled a hater or a monster.

Kish, the intent of posting the quote was to respond to Ajax's description of the incident:
Or what about the Dad who had the temerity to speak out of turn at a school board meeting when calling out their lie that no sexual assaults had taken place by transgender students in the girls bathroom in Loudon County Public Schools.
There is also video of the meeting at the link I posted.

My point is that Ajax works himself up to the point of outrage based on highly biased accounts of incidents that either are flat out inaccurate or that omit important facts and contexts. in my opinion, it's exactly this process that is resulting in flat-out eliminationist rhetoric that is becoming too common on the right. The people who manufacture this kind of outrage (not Ajax, but the sources he relies on) are playing with dynamite.

If Ajax has engaged in eliminationist rhetoric, I don't recall it. His comment about not being in the same country as you was, in my opinion, consistent with his view that the U.S. should be divided into at least two separate countries. But his expressions of outrage are typical of what I've been saying for a while puts the U.S. on the road to Rwanda.

Black nominee and offender, and we can see what the GOP is up to.

I understand, RI. I was particularly pointing to the issue of parents being genuinely concerned about their kids. There are parents whose views I do not share who are nevertheless genuinely concerned about their kids and genuinely uncomfortable with values that don't resonate with them at all. I don't know where Ajax is in all of this, and I don't really care. Ajax may just be a bad person; he is definitely a person whose views are often repugnant to me.
