@john_iamme Yup.

The First Amendment applies to everyone.

However, constitutional rights can be limited when someone voluntarily agrees to those limits.

Anyone who chooses to enter military service agrees to be bound by the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

That includes lawful restrictions on political speech and conduct that civilians do not face—especially for officers under Article 88.

@john_iamme @KitMarlowe7 @Paradoxicalson @glangley @RandPaul While others, equally influential (who also thought those rights were important), feared such would imply that unstated rights (powers) were not also important.

The 9A and 10A were written to satisfy them and fortify our status as a republic of states.

@john_iamme @KitMarlowe7 @Paradoxicalson @glangley @RandPaul Correct.

The Bill of Rights was a delicate balancing act by Madison.

Some very influencial people thought some rights were so important to be protected from the federal government they should be expressly stated.

True

[Spencer Pratt @spencerpratt]

I was wrong about Scott Galloway. I told you he was “stupid-smart”.

IDK. I think maybe he’s just stupid.

[Don Frasier @UCLAdonF]

@ouchmyshinhurts @DanielLonen @john_iamme That's fair.

I mistakenly thought you were penalizing him even though he's putting up Cy Young consideration numbers (if had more innings) and stand alone MVP consideration hitting stats (something nobody but him has done before) cuz he'll only pitch about 1/2 of most starters.

[Don Frasier @UCLAdonF]

@john_iamme @EmmaJeanKitty I find it funny that they're "Kavanaugh stops"considering nothing would be different had Kavanaugh not voted in the decision to stay and had not written his concurrence, which simply explained in detail what has been Supreme Court precedent since 1976... and still is.

[Don Frasier @UCLAdonF]

@ouchmyshinhurts @DanielLonen @john_iamme I agree with John Smoltz, you shouldn't penalize the unicorn because this year he's a slightly less unicorn. He's still the unicorn.

[Don Frasier @UCLAdonF]

@john_iamme @EmmaJeanKitty Well stated.

[Dude... Fight progressives not each other @john_iamme]

That's a horrible HuffPost article.

1. "Kavanaugh stop" is a misinformed misnomer.

2. Supreme Court has made NO rulings on the merrits on Noem v. Vazquez-Perdomo case.

3. Race as a relevant factor for reasonable suspicion in immigration cases is still the same as it has been since SCOTUS' 1975 unanimous ruling.

Peggy Flanagan wanted to "reimagine" public safety.

Reimagine it into what, exactly?

Because from where Minnesotans are standing, it looks a lot like nobody's in charge.

[Scott Jennings @ScottJenningsKY]

I remain flabbergasted.

James Talarico’s latest take is that justice depends entirely on skin color rather than facts or the law.

Reducing responsible citizens to racial partisans isn’t “flattery”—it’s deeply insulting and utterly appalling.

[Don Frasier @UCLAdonF]

@JPJburner @ouchmyshinhurts @DanielLonen @john_iamme I would, if, for example, somebody claimed Pages and PCA were essentially the same in those categories, or I saw some other equally easily disprovable claim. But I won't because I haven't seen such.

[Don Frasier @UCLAdonF]

@JPJburner @DanielLonen @ouchmyshinhurts @john_iamme I never said Pages was having a better year than PCA.

You asserted that no other player with near PCA's putouts and assists has near PCA's batting average.

Your criteria, not mine.

Yet, Pages (same position) has essentially equal putouts, assists, and batting avg as PCA.

[Don Frasier @UCLAdonF]

@ouchmyshinhurts @JPJburner @DanielLonen @john_iamme My point was responding to JF2 for Prez, who alleged that other players with PCA's putouts and assists numbers "are barely hitting over the Mendoza line" (.200 avg)

I was noting that Pages actually has more putouts and assists than PCA with about the same batting average as him
