@wsford@Rothmus Trump: I had the most decisive victory ever (49.81 to 48.34).
Vance: Republicans get 40% of the vote in New England and don’t win anything
By the way R candidates got 10% of the vote in Massachusetts in 2024 for the only one who got any substantial votes was the guy on the Cape
@wsford@SuperC0rgi@Rothmus In Massachusetts, 82% of the votes votes cast for a representative Congress went to a democrat, about 10% went to republican and eight. In shocking news, JD Vance lied again.
@busncuy@Rothmus And Rhode Island was completely blue in the presidential election with Harris gaining 55.5% of the vote and Trump gaining 41.76% of the vote.
@busncuy@Rothmus 80% of the votes cast in Massachusetts in the 2024 election or cast for a democrat representative. 10% or Republicans and 8% were independent candidates. The entire state was blue. The closest race was on the Cape and he won 56.4 to 43.4.
Many people believe the legal threshold for self-defense is lower for government officers than for ordinary citizens. It’s not.
There’s one simple test for evaluating whether an officer’s use of force was unlawful or justified as self-defense.
Ask yourself: If you, an ordinary citizen, did the same thing the officer did, how would your actions be assessed?
If someone were obstructing a street in your neighborhood, and you demanded they move, and everyone were in the same physical positions and took the same actions, would you be justified in shooting the driver of the vehicle?
I can say, unequivocally, that if you did the same thing the ICE officer in Minneapolis did, you would be found guilty of a crime, and your claim of self-defense would be rejected outright.
Closing in on puck drop in Boston.
Canada 🇨🇦 and Finland 🇫🇮 scenarios:
Regulation win by either team - advances to championship against USA, Sweden is eliminated
CAN or FIN win in OT/SO - winner will be eliminated if Sweden wins in regulation. Any other result, CAN/FIN through.
@GuntherEagleman Snowflake conservatives yell freedom of speech when someone says something you agree with but cry like babies when people call him out on it. Whiny whiny hypocrites.
@debragarrett @Travis_in_Flint Yeah, cause Republicans don’t get away with anything. Oh wait, Jim Jordan turned the blind eye to athletes getting abused, and nothing happened to him
@GigaBeers Have to love the people who just criticize her because they don’t agree with her politically. If this was AOC, the Democrats would be fine with it. Of course, the Republicans would be all up in arms. She can dress however she wants. She’s a grown woman. So many judgmental pricks
