  • Filion also targeted high schools, historically Black colleges, mosques, FBI offices and FBI agents, and made threats to bomb military bases and the Pentagon, the state attorney’s office said in a court filing.

    Gee, I wonder where that list of targets came from.

  • The 14th Amendment was not designed by slave owners nor has modernity made it obsolete.

  • [We should ignore the Constitution of the Untied States and make decisions based on fear of Trump's terroristic cult instead]

    No we should not.

  • We'll see. She's clearly not in it to win a majority of the delegates so it just comes down to what her donors' goals actually are and how long they're willing to fund her campaign. If she makes it to South Carolina it's only 10 more days until Super Tuesday; meaning there are, I think, 22 contests in just those 10 days.

  • Your question doesn't make any sense; the People's Republic of China has never had control of Taiwan.

  • They were colonies. Does that really need to elaborated on? If a territory of the US like Puerto Rico wants to vote for independence more power to them.

    Or to the secession of Texas from Mexico? Doesn’t it imply that the USA should give Texas back?

    If we were having this conversation between 1836 and 1848, yeah, probably. But since Mexico conceded the land that contains Texas to America as part of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo that's since been settled.

  • The UK and the US are not structured similarly: Scotland is a country, Texas is not.

    But the main point here is that all of America belongs to all Americans. The people living in Texas don't have some special right to the land of Texas and the people of California don't have some special right to the land of California.

    Texas seceding and becoming its own country because the people currently squatting on it want to leave America makes as little sense as your neighbor doing the same. If people living in America no longer want to live in America they are free to leave but they are not free to take part of America with them when they go.

  • Also insisting Ukrainians in occupied territory give up their language and culture or face torture and execution.

  • Even if they think you're in the in-group, that you agree with them and are the right kind of person, they will still lie to you, use you, and throw you away when they're done.
