@Baddboykilla @giiaax It doesn’t work like that. Absence of proof for conviction does not equal proof that the accuser was lying. Sometimes the answer is simply, “There is not enough evidence. No one can be convicted of anything.”
@runonmusic @chiickenwizard @willhagerman They’re afraid that it might really all be true... that building your worldview on nothing but faith in dogmatic fundamentalism is crazy. So they’ll draw arbitrary lines that shouldn’t be crossed to keep them far far away from that slippery slope.
@runonmusic @chiickenwizard @willhagerman I think it’s too reductive to assume is completely disingenuous and about control. They can’t engage thoughtfully over how to interpret the Bible because they see that people like us who did went too far down the slippery slope.
@BluntsvilleTx@Deshklok @tozo @raymagnetic@NRA@BluntsvilleTx please explain to the class why this has anything to do with his death (surely the police officer had no knowledge of this) or why the NRA did not therefore condemn it.
@JustJohnson93@NRA I don’t care if you think that nothing the NRA has ever done was prejudiced in the slightest... do you not have the sensitivity to know that this should not have been said? Way to ruin my night even further.
@JustJohnson93 You know what... I could be a staunch gun rights supporter and still not fail to recognize that this tweet was a disgrace. Just despicable. @NRA why the hell would you tweet that?
After being awoken by that tornado siren my first thought was - rather than oh goodness my life might be in danger - what are some new ideas for that meme format of the kid who sounds like a siren?
@savvy_g21 These North-South lines always have their exceptions. Slavery was at times legal north of both the Mason–Dixon and Missouri Compromise lines, and in practice it continued to exist in New Jersey. Conclusion: the lines don’t work.
