    Yeah but none of that fucking matters. If a prosecutor says nope there is no case or controversy and the judge sure as hell cannot take it upon themself to try the case for the state. 

    As twice said- every benefit of the doubt should and does go to the defendant and that’s with damn good reason- the might of the government is fucking staggering... they don’t need the help. 

    This is an absurd, politically-motivated travesty. You cannot give the government the benefit of the doubt, ever. They already win what 90+ percent of cases. Not to mention using power of trial and harsher sentence as a club to beat a defendant over the head with. You do not want the judge to have more power to tip the scales explicitly against the accused.  Ever. 

     

    Nice of you to drop in to defend the rule of law at this point.

    Man, when the computer decides you aren't going to win your Franchise game today, they really stick it to you. 

    Yesterday the fucking Marlins banged out 18 runs and 24 hits. Those cocksuckers were still trying to steal bases up 15-3 so I had to bean a couple of their dudes in the head. Show them who's boss. 

    How is franchise mode? Any tips on how to maximize enjoyment? Do you play most games or sim? 

    I can't you believe you continued to play a game down 15-3. I'm forfeiting that nonsense.

    I knew Tubberville was a POS but didn't think he'd swallow diseased chode like Trump's. Yuck. But love that Sessions is getting ass fucked hard by karma. You helped create him dickhead, so you could throw kids in cages and now you are getting shit on like you well deserve. leonardo dicaprio laughing GIF

    You thought he was running as a . . . reformer?

    GOP is Trump, Trump is GOP.

    It's not just that they're violent idiotic pieces of shit.  It's that they are SO fucking idiotic that they can't figure out that even their mis-cited "Constitutional rights" don't mean shit on private property.  Waffle House and Costco are private properties, and they can have their own rules requiring masks.  And the Constitution is 100% ok with that.

    But they're publicly traded companies!

    googling what "butane honey oil" is there appears to be a recent article where another similar large scale factory was busted in california with 9,000 pounds of weed and 10 pounds of the oil in  more rural area (near orland).....the photos of the facility looked damn well made though someone had an engineering background to design and built it for sure

    the article made it seem as though this product is illegal in california (I know it is a felony in Texas, but legal some places)

    is it legal in california does anyone know?....and if legal who in the fuck would allow the permit for this type of operation in downtown LA.....if not legal you have to wonder who would be dumb enough to locate it in downtown LA and how they got away with it for so long

    also it seems places like this have been blowing up for decades

    I don't know exactly what they were making, but cannabis oil, wax, and cannabis extract are all legal in CA and can be purchased at dispensaries.

    Downtown is a bit of a misnomer. Downtown is divided into 3 unofficial zones that somewhat bleed together at the seams: financial district, historic core, and skid row/arts district.

    Financial district is the classic downtown.

    This fire took place in skid row-a mashup of old warehouses, distributors, and shops.

    He asked for it, doc said ok, and is giving him flintstones chewables, not actually hydroxychloroquine.

    Doc also brings these along:

    I wear a mask, but I don’t feel it’s a minor inconvenience. It really fucking blows. It’s like standing next to a close talker that you can’t escape. 

    Fair. It does kinda suck. Relative to the harm we're seeking to avoid and the improvement over stay-at-home while everything is closed down, I thought there'd be less push-back.

    The idea is that we would use contact tracing and widespread testing to have visibility into the growth, movement, and spread of the virus so we can react in a targeted and less broad way. 

    You know, like how we beat smallpox. 

    But for some reason, we have not prioritized that on a national level, so we have to address it on a state by state basis with either dangerous uncertainty or significantly restricted social contact. At least, that's only if we want to take the danger of the pandemic seriously and as a real threat, and not put potentially millions of lives in peril. 

    This is weird. Your post implies some sort of mitigating steps? I was under the impression our choices were: 1) do nothing - save the economy! or 2)everyone lives in a basement until 2022.

    Was just watching Bayern Munich play versus Union Berlin live right now. The only people in the stands are players, coaches, and stadium personel. The players and coaches in the stands are all socially distanced and wearing masks. Yeah I'm sure we can make that work in college football. Eerie seeing this though. Was just flipping through the sports channels and saw the word 'Live' (hadn't seen that in a while) and had to investigate. Soccer's not really my game though, but this gives a glimmer of the near future.

    My understanding is that the players were required to quarantine for the 7 days preceding the game. That could make college football difficult to pull off, but yes, it is a glimmer of hope for the future.
