Crazy to me, that, this is all true, I can become the president, can’t vote for it. Assuming it’s a felony.

Edit: I have educated myself, and this is not the case. I am not a felon, do not have any experience lol I’ve just, incorrectly, heard, that you can’t vote if you’re a felon.

Matt Little is from my home town and was my mayor for a long time. He was good. I like him. Good for him.

So, I’m not active duty anymore. However, when I was in, unfortunately during Trumps first administration, there was a lot of cognitive dissonance. Fundamentally, from my perspective, you have to understand that the military is a cult. Indoctrination is literally step 1. I would argue, in my case, it had started well before I had signed up though. Once you’re in the big army though, that’s it, there are consequences to your actions. When I began thinking for myself again, it was clear I was in a quite literal death cult, and I left. However, there was a period of time, where I was aware of this fact, and I just had to do my job. Or, face the wrath of a death cult.

The military preys upon the weak, poor, and broken. Yes, there is personal responsibility, however, you couldn’t have talked me out of joining that death cult. Even if my own political beliefs didn’t align with the military I signed up to die for, it wasn’t enough.

How about we execute politicians that fuck kids?

Ah yes, the historic culture of “black” stretching from New Zealand to Africa and South Asia and South America. You know, all very monocultured.

The largest /s imaginable

He did not. Unfortunately.

What? No?

This is mostly unrelated to the post, but, similarly to everything being “slammed” I’m tired of everyone “saying the quiet part out loud”.

Wait. This is a totally alien thought to my entire life experience. I suppose you don’t pull it back do you? For whatever reason I think that’s how I imagined it? Honestly, I don’t think I have ever imagined it to be fair.

That’s fair. I will not argue that.

What can they do for “gun safety”? I’m fairly sure the woman murdered wasn’t because of lack of gun safety on her end.

I’ll also add, I’m Minnesotan. Also have connections to FFLs. So I’m getting a lot of the same news, we don’t really have a gun safety problem. We have laws about how to store firearms and ammunition. Shootings that have taken place aren’t for a lack of “gun safety”.

I agree with you wholeheartedly. I do believe we have people deranged enough to try. Thank you for the comprehensive breakdown. I certainly do not know the nuances of law, just what I gathered.

28 U.S. Code § 1441 & 1442 disagree.

Okay and when the federal government removes the state judge from the state case and appoints a federal judge, what then? The federal judge is now hearing the case on behalf of the state.

Right, but I’m saying, that that state is going to attempt to prosecute, and the Feds are going to say it should be a federal trial, and drop charges. Are you saying the state would refile charges? Can you do that? You have already filed them, the feds said it was a federal issue, then refused to prosecute.

I guess where I’m confused is, if the it went to federal court, it wouldn’t be tried in state court, correct?

Or, are you saying, it can be both? Which, I can understand that, but, again, I don’t see how the state prosecutes, if the federal court rules that it’s a federal offense, not a state offense.

Edit: I’ve looked into it, involving federal agents, the case can be removed to a federal judge to oversee the states proceeding.

We’re actually agreeing I think. That’s also the doctrine that I would use to back my argument. The federal government, based on rhetoric, isn’t going to bring any charges. If the state does, using dual sovereignty, they can determine, that because it’s involving a federal agent, it violated federal law, and it should be tried in federal court. Then they’ll drop charges.

Edit: I’ll add, I’m certainly not a lawyer, and there’s nuance I probably don’t understand

So, I haven’t gone through all the comments, however, yeah, the state can charge him but, the federal government can also make the case a federal one, then drop charges.

There is precedent for that.

If I remember correctly, the seals were compromised by a fisherman, not exactly high tech security.

Yeah, and the state is going to have to deal with the shitshow the Feds left for us too. It’s a mess. I was also literally shaking, pacing back and fourth, on the phone with a friend of mine.

So, I live here, it’s also 45 degrees today. I don’t think you can even get stuck in the snow today. Unless you’re not on pavement.

Not that the lies need to be pointed out, they’re obvious without that… but still.
