    I knew this guy - straight across the board nutter, never should have been a cop.
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

      Sounds like you took a look at the video and realize how stupid it would make you look. Never fear, I'll be happy to oblige. Here's the "attack" Ronson thinks is on par with ramming someone's car and holding a gun to their head.



      More "discernment" on your part or uncritically repeating things you heard without actually investigating?

          Too true. Hilariously he got soundly spanked by a Mod later on in that thread where he tried to order you and me to stop posting on the thread when we dared to question his anonymous sources, and was told he cannot, in fact, kick people off the thread when they question something he brought up by posting.

            Maybe he can get a job at Facebook or Twitter!

              . . . but you can't. I previous used actual data records. You have provided nothing.

                The issue was people not staying on topic. The same issue as I directed at Ronson. This thread is not about BLM. That thread was not about whatever nonsense equivalency people were bringing up. If you want to discuss my requests to stay on topic feel free to create a thread in the panic room or whatever it's called.

                  I think you should do that. Or create some omnibus thread.

                    Another example of supporters of Trump/GOP losing touch with reality. It's rather sad really, isn't it? I wonder what percentage of those 65+ million who voted for Trump are denying reality?

                      Except the mods told you that in fact you could not kick people out of that thread for daring to question your anonymous sources. Sorry bud..

                            The claim that you could is the point! A sharp one indeed.

                              Yes, I could, but I don't.

                                I've seen the video, there are at least two, maybe three of them. I subscribe to Rand Paul's newsletter and got his account firsthand.

                                Again, your threads are too restrictive unless you want to deviate. I'm not interested in that.
