Oh...STFU.

Hey, I'm not pm'ing behind your back to anyone. AD - put me on mute or just don't read my posts. As simple as that.

Yup...I believe that. I also see that you tend to give bad emojis when posters write stuff about their lives, but you don't judge posts that are about belief systems. That's not an absolute but holds true most of the time. I posted earlier about my daughter and got a negative judge it from you, I understand why, because you don't believe I have a daughter with a learning disability. Giving judge it's sometimes reveals more about a person than if they posted. Judge it's are a pure form of feedback.
Totally agree 👍

Can't you see that Faith does the same?

Anybody who's a big enough jerk off to troll total strangers on the internet is necessarily a lonely little dweeb with no life.  Try to imagine what kind of sniveling nebbishes they are in real life.  They are afraid of their own shadows.
We all know who they are.  Like I said...boring.

Yeah but I don't pretend to be a hacker, a Vietnam vet or have an imaginary archive of meaningless rubbish posted by a bunch of total strangers using fake names. To manage all those lies takes a level of dedication to an internet fantasy life that I just cannot commit too. I'm too preoccupied with having an actual life.

See the wording here? She’s a conniver.

Actually - it's a quote.

“What we do see depends mainly on what we look for. ... In the same field the farmer will notice the crop, the geologists the fossils, botanists the flowers, artists the colouring, sportmen the cover for the game. Though we may all look at the same things, it does not all follow that we should see them.”

It's easy to spot the liars.  I don't believe a word any of what any of the trolls say.  It's pretty obvious that they want to be something other than what they are. And what they are is losers, wash-outs at life.  Who cares what they think or have to say about anything?

It's their way of trying to control something because they may not have control IRL.

I read that Oregon decriminalized drugs.  Why not? People that take drugs don't give a sht whether or not they have the threat of jail hanging over their heads. In the end, not tying up as much of the resources of law enforcement, the courts and jails will save  a ton of money wasted on a lost cause.

And all true.

Thanks for this CC, it clarified things more.

Agreed!
People only change, but only if they want that change.

I read that the prosecutor in Washtenaw County, MI has ended the policy of cash bail because it so unfairly penalizes the poor.  It kind of has a snowball effect too. People lose their jobs, their homes, etc while they are locked up awaiting a trial that may see them vindicated. It kind of traps people in poverty.  There are millions of
 people that are so tightly balanced that if their car broke down, they would not have the money to fix it, they would then lose their job and be unable to pay their rent...and so on and so on. Locking them up does nothing but make things worse.

However, courts will still deny pre-trial release to people charged with dangerous and serious crimes.

I don't care what you think about me. I don't think about you at all.
Sure you do, it is why you sent me a pm. You really are stupid.
