  1. Carlos DeLuna, Cameron Todd Willingham, and Troy Davis were likely innocent victims of execution. Statistics suggest a high rate of error, with some studies estimating at least 4% of death row inmates are innocent, and for every 8 people executed, one person has been exonerated. Those of you who hope for quick executions, imagine it was a relative "quickly executed" then proven innocent later.
  2. Trump is a blowhard. His boasts don't come to anything. Campaign finance: "I think nobody knows more about campaign finance than I do, because I'm the biggest contributor." (1999.) TV ratings: "I know more about people who get ratings than anyone." (October 2012.) ISIS: "I know more about ISIS than the generals do." (November 2015.) Social media: "I understand social media. I understand the power of Twitter. I understand the power of Facebook maybe better than almost anybody, based on my results, right?" (November 2015.) Courts: "I know more about courts than any human being on Earth." (November 2015.) Lawsuits: "[W]ho knows more about lawsuits than I do? I'm the king." (January 2016.) Politicians: "I understand politicians better than anybody." The visa system: "[N]obody knows the system better than me. I know the H1B. I know the H2B. ... Nobody else on this dais knows how to change it like I do, believe me." (March 2016.) Trade: "Nobody knows more about trade than me." (March 2016.) The U.S. government system: "[N]obody knows the system better than I do." (April 2016.) Renewable energy: "I know more about renewables than any human being on Earth." (April 2016.) Taxes: "I think nobody knows more about taxes than I do, maybe in the history of the world." (May 2016.) Debt: "I’m the king of debt. I’m great with debt. Nobody knows debt better than me." (June 2016.) Money: "I understand money better than anybody." (June 2016.) Infrastructure: "[L]ook, as a builder, nobody in the history of this country has ever known so much about infrastructure as Donald Trump." (July 2016.) Sen. Cory Booker: "I know more about Cory than he knows about himself." (July 2016.) Borders: Trump said in 2016 that Sheriff Joe Arpaio said he was endorsing him for president because "you know more about this stuff than anybody." Democrats: "I think I know more about the other side than almost anybody." (November 2016.) Construction: "[N]obody knows more about construction than I do." (May 2018.) The economy: "I think I know about it better than [the Federal Reserve]." (October 2018.) Technology: "Technology — nobody knows more about technology than me." (December 2018.) Drones: "I know more about drones than anybody. I know about every form of safety that you can have." (January 2019.) Drone technology: "Having a drone fly overhead — and I think nobody knows much more about technology, this type of technology certainly, than I do." (January 2019.) I am still waiting for Mexico to pay for the wall.
  3. All those brave boys who accuse others of treason really don't know much about the subject. The U.S. Constitution defines treason narrowly in Article III, Section 3, as "levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort," requiring conviction by two witnesses to the same "overt act" or a confession in open court, with Congress determining punishment but preventing forfeiture of family property (attainder) beyond the traitor's life, all to prevent abuse of power. The last person convicted of treason was in 1952. What you really mean is, I really don't like these people and hope they suffer, but not for treason.
  4. A tiny, no-name party wants to take away notes that are commonly used by the cash based economy and leasing to. - Liquidity Crisis & Disruption - Consumer Panic The local wet markets will scream and the poor who keep cash will be in trouble. Thank goodness The Thai Pakdee Party has no chance of winning.
  5. Ezekiel 9:5-7 describes God commanding the slaughter of men, women, and children as judgment. The Pope can dream of a peaceful God but the Bible and history says otherwise.
  6. The common people don't want war but art never stopped a bomb. Better to protest against their government, which keeps trying to distract people from their poverty.
  7. A man with no power to change anything trying to be decent. Nothing wrong with that.
  8. Robbing people on the high seas is called piracy. Never planning to return it is robbing the people of Venezuela of their natural resources. Don't think this is the way of preventing drug smuggling. Drug makers don't get a share of oil money.
  9. She appears to be someone who stands by her beliefs and does not just write to AN while sitting on the toilet, like so many.
  10. Someone tell me how to block a thread. This one is ridiculously long.
  11. If it wasn't for the blacked out parts of documents, discarded recordings, missing videos I might be interested. I believe the authorities are working overtime to redact important information.
  12. Even as a commoner, Andrew would still be in line to the throne through blood. It just needs a series of plane crashes...
  13. Joe BIDEN is to blame. For something bad.
  14. He needs to learn from the Master: "From day one I will end poverty."
  15. She should take a leaf out of the American playbook: "on day one, I will end all corruption" etc.
  16. Thailand ought to have small planes or drones patrolling the border to spot mine laying while talks proceed. Photographic evidence of mine laying will keep the Cambodians in line.
  17. Imagine if trump offered free healthcare, education, and good pensions to Greenlanders? They might agree. I wonder what the southern states of America would say?
  18. Yes, they all kept quiet as discretion is the key when dealing with royals. Historically, royals and their court had many mistresses as do modern businessman.
  19. The videos showing him naked having sex with underage girls is the only definitive evidence but Justice won't release them and will continue to deflect. Look! Over there, Bill Clinton!
