Does such a thing exist?

Trump legal team losing a counter-suit to a 17-year-old girl would be the nuts.

Another thing about Trump suing anyone, especially on a trademark to his name, is that he'd be opening himself to a near-certain deposition. 8 hours of testimony under oath. Now, one couldn't ask him anything, but the legal standard for relevance in a deposition is VERY loose and it's really not proper for a deponent to not answer on the basis of a relevance objection (which is not really a proper objection in a deposition, at least in a federal case). And anyone could order a transcript (they may try to have it sealed but that is a high bar, particularly without a solid basis.)

This London thing being discussed anywhere? This low-tech terror trend is difficult to combat it seems.

Nope. Too ho hum probably.

You may also have noticed that radical Islamic terrorism is not a hugely popular topic in these forums.

I eagerly await your insight about how the UK should best deal with vehicle and knife attacks that were probably inspired by the intractable legacy of hundreds of years of geopolitics.

No no, wait, let me guess! Does it involve hating teh Islams on teh internet?

I mean this literally when I say I don't think there's been one conservative on this forum that wanted to discuss "Radical Muslim terrorism" as a socio economic phenomenon or in terms of "rational" actors pursuing goals (as terrible as those goals are for me).

Rather the discussion very quickly goes to Islam is the source of all the world's problems, "not all Muslims are terrorists but all terrorists are Muslims", "the Quran commands Muslims to kill infidels donchaknow"? It's possible to discuss religious motivation but motivation always narrows down to religious compulsion expanded out to all member of Islam. It's boring, it sucks, and it just gets people banned who can't help but claim all Muslims are evil or the non violent ones aren't "real" Muslims, etc.

Probably because they get labelled racist or Islamaphobic whenever the topic or possible solutions are brought up. It's very difficult to have an open discussion when those labels are thrown around almost as an instant reflex by one side against the other.

there was discussion some in the uk thread i think

also,

No, not by me it doesn't.

Although I'm sure you would love it if it did.

That's OK, I'll see if I can set up a space for you where you'll feel safe to express yourself without judgement.

Police vigilance coupled with public indifference is a good strategic play though.

You could just go ahead and post your thoughts instead of your usual incessant whining.

Good reason for you to post elsewhere, this place doesn't live up to your standards.

I made a Right Wing Safe Space thread a while back, it doesn't get enough action.

Falcon is saying Politards are *******s for not having more to say about the London parliament attack? I don't really have much to say other than it's sad and bad. If I were British it would have hit closer to home and I'd have more to say, I assume. I haven't heard many facts about what actually happened. Obv 4 dead = bad. What else can someone write that isn't speculation? Should more speculating be occurring 'round here about this matter? Would that prove our bonafides and concern for the victims? Speaking out of our ass about who did what?

Why not? Oh right, because politards hate cops and are happy when they're stabbed!

Some adults possess the preternatural ability of not wanting people abused/killed by cops, and not wanting cops to be harmed.

Well, I dunno, maybe address that there is a problem would be a start.

The problem that this attack represents was solved when the bobbies shot the attacker. There's a whole criminal justice system which can be used to deal with violence.

I propose a compromise: you agree we don't need to bomb muslims and I'll agree we don't need to bomb car plants.

Bro,

I just think the LC thread could use some discussion on guns.

Not sure what the dude London was all about.

Serious question, what would you recommend as foreign policy objectives in Syria and Iraq regarding ISIS? Then let's move on to Iran that has a Holocaust denying government and has a vow to wipe out Israel. What would policy would you recommend regarding them?
