Politics Please say rock bottom is getting close

Wtf?

 

This is Russian justice.

Ever since the supreme court ruled leos can lie to obtain information that can be used in court. More and more leos are abusing this privilage. Heck some leos receive special training now on how to lie to obtain info that can be used against you.

Now, when I am talkimg to an leo, I just assume everything they are saying is a lie. Which is a shame, because there are still a few good leos around.

Sadly, depending on the situation and the leos agency. It can be a crime to lie to an leo. In some situations, a felony.


Forgot to mention. Not only are leos trained to find reasons to stop you. They are trained to ask trick questions to get your permission to do searches without a search warrent.

 

What the hell is a leos?

 

Law Enforcement Officer

 

A lable for many types of govt law enforcement officers, in many agencys.

From local city police officers, all the way up to many of the FBI agents.

Say you lie to an FBI agent, but do not understand why he is asking you questions. In some cases, you may have commited a felony, if he is working a terrorist case,

 

Virginia based tech company fined by Department of Justice after posting an open position with stipulation candidates be white and native born.

Will they challenge Civil Rights Act in Extreme Court?

 

Yes, disgruntled former employee. Heard that before. Also noted company did not keep appropriate records to show compliance with non-discrimination laws nor did they post notice of federal equal employment law as required.

 

also, since 2016 we’ve seen quite a few prominent white supremicists who weren’t white themselves. The non-white aspect is a red herring at best.

Don't know what happened. But if it was a disgruntled ex employee most companies would immediately apologize and take down listing.

Texas working on plan that would make it impossible for any Democrat to win statewide election.
Currently state elections are decided in the normal fashion, by who gets most votes. Texas has one of the lowest voter turnouts in the country thanks to laws making it very difficult for the wrong people to vote. But demographics are changing. In wooing tech companies with low taxes and no environmental, health or safety regulations they also got an influx of well educated high turnout voters who support women's rights, marriage equality and caring for environment.

So the new scheme is a weird sort of electoral college. Candidate wins elections not with majority of votes but majority of counties. Texas is a huge state with a lot of small rural counties with a very small population that is very conservative. These counties of a few hundred would be equal to Harris County, which includes Houston. And there are hundreds of these tiny counties. A candidate could be elected with as little as 2% of popular vote.

Kansas Supreme Court decides that the State Constitution does not include a right to vote.

 

Honest Government Ad: Democracy™

 

Do you read the articles you post, or just the misleading headlines?

There was never anything in their constitution mentioning voting from the beginning, it wasn’t just ‘decided’ the other day that people there “dOnT hAvE tHe RiGhT tO VoTe!!!!”

They are trying to pass laws to make it illegal to pose as an election official, and to verify signatures on mail in ballots. It’s a dishonest headline that brilliantly served its intended purpose—which is to make people like you say “Did you hear? The Republican hicks in Kansas are taking away the right to vote”
