  • This is the point - he isn't.

    ...of course, that was never going to stop him - the principle underpinning all of this is that the rules only matter to Trump and the GOP as far as they can be used to harm their enemies and protect themselves.

  • My cheap dashcam does rolling saves if days worth of HD video... but aviation safety can only manage 2 hours of audio? Weeks worth of buffer should be trivial to add from both an economic and operational standpoint, and would have solved this issue (though not the door, obviously).

    The logs should be getting pushed to a meaningful amount of local storage, and radio chatter saved centrally (there's almost certainly amateurs stockpiling these recordings - large institutions are definitely capable).

  • Because while it may result in a stable, positive, loving relationship (or just mutually great, harmless sex that's what they're after), it's a strong predictor when people are actively seeking a relationship with that kind of gap. Think about the likely reasons someone would seek that kind of thing, and the likely outcomes. I think it's reasonable to look at this sort of thing with suspicion, but not to immediately dust off the pitchforks and light the torches.

    Not all middle-aged single men distributing candy from the back of their windows van are paedophiles, but it's both reasonable and responsible to look at what they're doing with suspicion.

    It's interesting you'd bring politics into this when conservatives seem so wrapped up in protecting child brides, child beauty pageants, fetishise youth, and appear to be massively over-represented represented in paedophilia stats.

  • As though having the rules applied to them won't reenforce their victim complex.

    If they lose - even thanks to a GOP judge (a wild concept) it'll be because of the elites... You know - the Jews.

    They're somehow both moronic and evil.

  • Storming the capitol will get you shot with overwhelming force... just not if you're a far-right extremist - that kind of treatment is historically reserved for the leftists and minorities fighting for equal treatment.

  • Yikes - that really highlights the US's priorities...

    If you're a felon, you can't represent yourself, but if you're a felon with money, you can represent everyone.

    No taxation without representation, and no slavery... but felons aren't real people.

    Private companies profit from confining people as cheaply as possible and exploiting their slave labour - all above board.

    The land of the free has nearly a quarter of the world's prison population... but only ~4% of the world's people.
