Best we can do for 4473 denials for those under restraining order, and prior convictions apparently?

You can prosecute someone for lying on a 4473, but they don't.

Which one of those people were not criticized?

Some of them were the police.

You don't get lemon juice if arsenic wins the election.

"ofc" doesn't stand for "of fucking course"

edit this was supposed to have a question mark:

"ofc" doesn't stand for "of fucking course"?

Like when? When we went into Iraq because WMDs?

When you say that, what do you have in mind?

“Not just conservatives” he says and mentions fascist cop (but I repeat myself) Eric Adams as an example 🤦

Yeah, I deserved that. I didn't do my research.

Fascists and extra fascists.

Yeah, I really fucked up.

“That puts pressure on people to do the wrong thing. What they’re doing is no different than Bobby Knight,” he continued, referring to the legendary college basketball coach famous for raucous arguments with referees.

People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

*>"a moral panic" is the rod conservatives use to beat their voters into submission with.

Not just conservatives.

FTA:

New York City Mayor Eric Adams speaks during a press conference on reducing shoplifting.

Edit: Apparently I don't know shit about Eric Adams, who was not only a cop, but a supporter of the "stop and frisk" policy.

The only thing that matters is objective material evidence that one’s position is correct.

This argument may have more weight if you support it by presenting objective material evidence.

Do you think the judge on Colorado was an originalist who made their ruling in bad faith, or that they are just evade responsibility for the ruling?

Americans are pro-Israel because, for the past 75 years, we've been taught and told that all the Arabs and/or Muslims want to destroy Israel and we are the only country that can prevent that from happening.

For the majority of Americans, it is not religion or ignorance, it is simply political dogma.

From 2021 to 2022 looks like a wash to me

A wash is not an increase.

2021: homicide+accident 21068 suicide 26328 total 47396 population estimate from census.gov: https://www.census.gov/data/datasets/time-series/demo/popest/2020s-national-total.html#v2023 332603952

2022: homicide+accident 20390 suicides 27038 total 47428 population estimate from census.gov 334025515

firearm homicides + firearm suicides / population * 100000 = rate per 100,000 2021: 14.24998101 2022: 14.19891531

It sure looks like it.

Let me check.

No.

Deaths have fallen from 2021 to 2022 and 2022 to 2023. They rose in the past, but do not continue to rise.

I'm sorry, I wasn't clear. I didn't mean he isn't suing the companies. I meant the companies aren't being sued for trafficking or potential trafficking or possible trafficking.

That's not what the article says.

He wants the bus companies to reimburse the city for the hundreds of millions of dollars it's cost to shelter them.
...
The suit seeks $708 million to compensate the city for the cost of shelter, food and health care.
"These companies have violated state law by not paying the cost of caring for these migrants," Adams said.
... The suit charges the companies with "bad faith" conduct and violating New York social service law by dumping the asylum seekers in New York City without providing a means of support.

edit:

A note for the purpose of clarity, I was saying that the article does not contain information that supports this statement:

Suing the companies for engaging in a contract that is legally dicey (potentially trafficking)
