@Zardoz,
Quote:There will always be limits on rights even the most cherished rights have limits.
There shouldn't be any limits on rights, and don't play that childish game, people not being free to kill people, that's a child's response and goes against common thinking and norms. The nanny statists don't think the common person has the ability to think or act for themselves and therefore has to do things that they know are good for the common man.
Quote:It would be easy to destroy the reputation of a young woman or a large company.
Would? How about is, you don't seem to be aware of "cancel culture". Obama even gave a lecture to the left about not using it as a political took against free speech. That's the difference between a liberal and a leftist, liberals still believe in free speech and expression, leftists want limits on what you can say and do. Leftists stand in stark contrast to the founding ideals of this nation.
Quote:The world series is like the Superbowl the tickets are very expensive and they attract a national crowd. The tickets for a world series game average $1,000 pricing most local families out. To ensure that world series tickets available to people from all over the country they are distributed by a lottery system. Most federal employees don’t make enough to take their families to a world series game. A regular season would be attended by locals but world series has a nation audience.
Why do you repeat what I have already said to you after you have disagreed with me? The swap isn't the normal federal employees, the "Joe's" of federal work, it's the K street types, the upper levels of management, the lobbyists and power brokers.
Quote:Not according to the head of the FBI investigation of Clinton’s emails the FBI had all her emails and after separating the business emails from the private emails the FBI then returned her private emails, they were not investigating he private emails.
You just made this up out of thin air, this isn't even close to the truth of what actually happened or to what Comey said in front of the TV camera's. Wow, you really do live in a world of delusion and fantasy.
Quote: I know it is not from the lie factory Fox News or other Russian associated rightwing sites but straight from the FBI agent that ran that investigation he wrote a book to put the lies to rest.
If you read this in a "book", you claim exists, then you read pure propaganda or a scifi alternate universe type book because that isn't how any that those events with her email happened. With claims like this, you are now putting everything you have ever claimed into question not to mention your mental acuity.
Quote:Trump is now using Twitter to notify congress when he is taking the nation to war. That is government business on a private server and no republican sees anything wrong with it.
I've already tried to explain to you the difference between Hillary's privately owned server in her own house, and Trump using a publicly available service that everyone uses, I don't always agree with his use of the platform, but then again I don't use twitter.
Quote: All of the Trump family uses private servers to do government business.
You would be wrong. There was a single story in 2017 about his daughter still using a private email account, and she stopped doing it and turned over all of her emails for archive purposes, unlike Hillary Clinton.
Quote:The GOP wanted to mine Clinton’s emails for information that could be used against her in the election and they were absolutely livid that the FBI returned them.
You would be wrong again. This never took place, Hillary never turned over her email server. Even if she had, the FBI would have had control of the server, and Obama was still in charge of the Federal govt, there were no FBI friendly people in high places during the Obama admin.
Quote:No outcry about the Trump family. How are they going to archive all those government calls on private phones?
I don't know, how did they archive all those calls on private phones during the Obama admin? Obama was the first President to use a cellphone and social media, what rules were crafted and were followed?
Quote:Trump is also known to borrow any visitor phone to make calls whenever visitors are in his office.
Do you have any actual proof of this, or was it written in another anti-Trump book that was debuked as lies? Did you see the one author doing an interview with one of the channels that wasn't FoxNews. When asked about some details that were proven false, he pretended to have mic issues and left the interview. Funny thing is, he never did another interview about that book and it rapidly dropped from it's sales position.
Quote:All Clinton’s emails exist because they are on the other people’s email accounts.
BTW Clinton’s not running this year.
You are now backtracking and admitting that she never turned over all her govt related emails?
Quote:You are so use to lies from the right wing you can’t recognize the truth. The fact is the FBI agent that ran the investigation wrote a book and they had all the emails. Who do you think would know? The FBI agent that ran the investigation or somebody at Fox News sitting at their desk making up “news.”
Again, you are living in a fantasy world, she never turned over her email server to the FBI. Just like the DNC never turned over their "hacked" computers to the FBI, it was all done by 3rd party private companies, not the FBI. This book you are reading is either lying to you or doesn't exist.
Quote:You and Trump believe every lie Putin tells. Every American intelligence agency, has debunked Putin’s lies just you and Trump believe that Putin was completely innocent.
I have never said such things. I have never defended Putin and it's weak of you to suggest such things. Either provide the proof, or apologize.
Quote:The DNC server was hacked long before the fishing attack on Podesta’s email account. The Russians probably provided the GOP with a security update for their server. The Russian are far more advanced than the GOP and could get into their server any time they wanted.
You don't seem to understand how network or computer security works, don't pretend to understand it. Do you really think the GOP politicians are the ones doing the security? No, they either hire an outside company to do it or they hire someone into the RNC as an employee.
What really happened is that the RNC had better IT people working for them and kept their system up to date, where the DNC didn't have as good of people working for them. People like you seem to forget the guy the DNC had working for them who was arrested for stealing info from govt computers...

Quote:The FBI had absolutely no business with the DNC server as it contained highly classified political information before an election, just as they would have no business with the GOP server.
The GOP actually provided access to their servers for the FBI to investigate, that's why the GOP wasn't hacked, they saw the security in place and would have looked over all patches and updates applied to the servers and the network equipment that would have been in use.
Quote:The servers contain all the opposition research and research on their own candidates. The FBI was closely monitoring the traffic on the server and when there was unusual traffic, they discovered the Russian cyberattack done to benefit Trump.
You can't say they had no access and then claim they did. The FBI NEVER saw the server nor the network. All they did was take a report from the DNC and accept another report from a 3rd party company. The FBI can't rule on anything with any certainty because they didn't do the investigation, except in this case since the FBI leaders were friendly to the DNC and Hillary Clinton, they would repeat anything they were told.
Did you not learn anything from the Horowitz report? The FBI under Obama was dirty, we will be finding out much more when the Durham report is released, it's already turned into the a criminal investigation, but the MSM won't report that, they were complicit in the lies told about Russian collusion.
Quote:You are supposed to be an IT person, you don’t have to have the server to know it under attack.
You have to have access to the network, which the FBI didn't have either.
Quote:Just as you don’t have to have radar to see the Russian bombers flying over. You can simply monitor the traffic and where it is going. You don’t think the FBI just comes by every so often and checks your server for Russians. Why do you think the FBI notified the DNC? Just psychic, I guess.
Fantasy world again. The FBI didn't notify the DNC of the hack, the DNC notified the FBI of the hack. The FBI has no legal authority to do such monitoring inside the US, that would be a major violation of the Constitution. You might be thinking of the NSA, National Security Agency, they monitor such things, not the FBI. The NSA would notifiy the FBI of anything going on, but that would only be in relation to the Govt servers and not the internet in general.
Quote:What part of the carried interest loophole don’t you understand? If it was your own money invested you already get the lower investment rate. The reason for the carried interest loophole is so you won’t have to pay the income tax rate on your income. This means all these big hedge managers get the investment rate on every dime they are paid. The ungodly greedy pay a far lower tax rate when all federal, state and local taxes are taken into account than the middle class and even the poor and Romney has the nerve to belly ache when he pays the lowest rate.
Quote:The carried interest loophole has nothing to do with investment income, it has to do with the commission the fat cats earn on somebody else’s investment.
I'll admit, I was confused on the types of investment, went and did some research. I'll have to agree with you, it looks like there could be room for the changes. Altough I have to admit, I can't blame them and I would use such things to pay less taxes if I could.
Quote:This is how the reasoning of the rich works. If I own stock on company B and that companies pays income tax then the ungodly should not pay a dime income taxes. But If you work for company B and company B has already paid taxes on the money they paid you then by that reasoning nobody should ever pay income taxes. That is how asinine that argument is but they only make that argument for the ungodly greedy.
That's isn't what they want at all, that's a caricature of what you think they want. No one likes paying taxes and everyone wants a lower tax rate, it isn't just the rich.
Quote:I fully understand loopholes and I am one of the few people that beat the IRS when I was audited. I had to teach them what they didn’t understand.
So you are admitting that like a rich person you don't want to pay what you really owe?
Quote:EIC is welfare and should have nothing to do with income tax. If government is going to give somebody a check and people with children need it don’t camouflage as a tax return. That money should be given out in monthly checks that way it would be more likely to benefit the children. Get the welfare out of the tax system and see what percentage pay taxes. If we cut the income taxes out on the first $50,000 that would take care of the EIC that would take care of the program. It is estimated out of the $56 billion spent EIC on $13.6 billion goes to fraud. It is easy program to defraud.
So as I said, people who get it don't actually pay anything in federal income taxes, they get more back from the feds than they pay into the system. Likely people who are getting the EIC are also already getting a social welfare payment of some sort already. How much more free money do you think they need, have you seen our economy and unemployment numbers?
Quote:One of the most common crimes today is a drug rip off. And drug dealers are almost always armed. These type of crimes go unreported for the most part unless some one is shot or killed./quote]
Common robbery is the most common crime, not a drug rip off. You seem to have a fascination with drugs and drug dealers. If they are almost always armed, why would someone then try to rob them, that doesn't make any sense.
Quote:The flyer for local bar’s the New Year’s eve mass shooting showed a woman holding her AR-15. They were having naked twerking contests. I am sure everybody bought their AR-15 like the invitation showed.
What are you talking about? Are you saying there was a mass shooting at a bar on New Years eve and the bar was inviting people to the bar with their guns?
Quote:There is a law of cause an effect. Things just don’t happen they happen for a reason. That AR-15 could have been the reason but they would have just watched the place and broken in when they left. They could have easily stolen everything in the house while they were gone but they didn’t. The penalty for home invasion is much more severe than burglary. They wanted to get that guy really bad for some reason. You can have your pick of reasons but I will guarantee you there was reason.
It doesn't matter what the reason was if there was one, they broke into his house and were assaulting him, they shot at his pregnant wife and she returned fire with better aim. You looking for an excuse for them to be the bad people speaks more about you than it does them. It's been a couple of months since that shooting, any updates from the police? Nope, none, the people were innocent of any wrong doing and a bad guy is dead.
Quote:I know how the system works and how easy it is to game the system. If you’re a criminal and want a gun you just go to gun store with your girlfriend and pick out your AR-15 and then have her purchase it.
That is called a straw purchase and is illegal. If caught and those people do eventually do get caught, they go to federal jail.
[quoteGuns are bought and sold continually, if you can’t buy one at gun store just look on Craig list.
Once again, there are already laws against such activities, if those laws were actually enforced, instead of creating new laws, we would all be safer.
Quote:Your right stealing a birthday gift isn’t the problem, guns are the problem. Just like the guy with the AR-15 shooting up the neighborhood in pitch dark. Nobody stole his birthday present he just wanted to kill people. He had been a hero on the high school baseball but his glory days were long gone. He was 50 and life was no longer as pleasant. He had gun and just decided to go hunting for humans one dark night. It is the gun that is the problem.
No, it isn't the gun, it's the person. You like to talk about the exceptions and not the rule. There are over 400 million guns in the US, crimes rates have been dropping since the 1980's and we have only added more guns and crime has gotten lower. The only connection between gun ownership and crimes rates is that more guns equals less crime when people can protect themselves. Unfortunately you seem to think anyone protecting themselves is the criminal and the real criminal is the victim.
