Certainly an interesting case, the main argument comes down to:

"The families sued the makers of the gun that was used, an AR-15-style weapon made by Remington, in 2014, alleging that the company’s marketing of the weapon inspired Adam Lanza to commit the massacre."

If Remington knowingly violated the law through its marketing practices, then they should certainly be liable. That's going to be extremely hard to prove in this case since Lanza stole the rifle instead of buying it combined with what we know about his state of mind from all the documents they collected.

Very interesting look back at the Kavanaugh confirmation, through the eyes of Murkowski and Collins:

"I felt as though in my life I had been looking at the wrong people as the people who would be problematic toward me. We were told that, 'Oh, it's gonna be the bigot in the pickup truck; it's gonna be the Klansmen; it's gonna be the rural sheriff,'" Thomas says in the film.

"But it turned out that through all of that, ultimately the biggest impediment was the modern day liberal," he said of the experience. "They were the ones who would discount all those things because they have one issue or because they have the power to caricature you."

I have never been a big fan of Justice Thomas. I never understood why he never asks any questions when the court is hearing a case. What he has to say here is pretty powerful. Justice Thomas had the audacity to be a black conservative and that was never going to fly in the world of FLP folks.

Well this "modern day liberal" believes the very strong evidence that Thomas was a serial harrasser of women in the workplace who then lied through his teeth about it, and still does. So, yeah, if he thinks I'm the problem, I'm good with that.

Why do you hate black people so much? I guess lily white liberal men are just as hateful as those white racists that marched in Charlottesville. You part of that high tech lynching as well CU? Hypocrisy runs rampant in the world of you candy ass liberal old white guys doesn't it? You should be ashamed and embarrassed by your new age progressive hate filled FLP dogma.

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/2nd-wom ... d=60948800 Does this also disgust you CU? What say you about these allegations of rape? Or does your hypocrisy overlook this stuff if it is someone from your own party? :roll:

I didn’t know there was a difference between a liberal and conservative sexual predator...I learnt something today. How many women have accused your guy Trump and do you think he should resign? Let me know. In the meantime, I will send you Pom Poms.

Trump’s afraid of Stormy, Summer Zervo, the list goes on. He made his women sign NDAs. You do the math.

C&S has been demanding Trump resign for three years. Just search his posts.

You know if we pick this apart, the only guy really, really focused on race here is C&S. CU77 simply takes issue with the fact that this one guy is invested with life tenure for one of only nine seats on the Supreme Court in the face of pretty convincing evidence that he was a serial harasser of women in the workplace while they were his subordinates. CU77 states it simply, without reference to race or any other characteristic. C&S then goes off on a characteristic bizarro rant that drips of misunderstanding and frustration. Weirder and weirder.

“Ms. Pitlyk has never tried a case as lead or co-counsel, whether civil or criminal,” Hubbard wrote. “She has never examined a witness. Though Ms. Pitlyk has argued one case in a court of appeals, she has not taken a deposition. She has not argued any motion in a state or federal trial court. She has never picked a jury. She has never participated at any stage of a criminal matter.”

Her experience does, however, include clerking for now-Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh when he was a federal appellate court judge — just like Justin Walker, another recently confirmed federal judge the ABA deemed unqualified.


Sheesh, they can't find qualified conservative candidates for lifetime appointments?
Apparently the most important qualifications are that she's young...and way, way on the hard right on policy...
Lifetime appointments.

No attempt to address the hypocrisy. The same old same old sheepdip spin from the usual suspects. Why do you candy ass pasty face old lily white liberal men hate black people so much? Y'all ain't even smart enough to understand sarcasm when it bites you in your ass. Have a good day gentlemen. I thought you college cumquats were a little smarter than that. I guess I was wrong. :lol:

This particular rant does indeed look just like our resident wild-eyed troll.
Strange. I didn't figure C&S for being this off the hook.
Occasionally angry and out of control with the insults, but this race train is off the tracks in a total, ugly pile-up.

But you could be right that he's previously saved this race stuff for the other screen name and just got lost in this discussion.

Unfortunately, the other explanation of two such angry posters is more likely the case...there are quite a few folks out there with is this kind of uncontrolled anger.
