  1. That’s a strange take on the reality of who’s liberty is at stake in this trial, but if it gives you comfort go with it.
  2. Successful criminal prosecutions frequently rely on the testimony of people who are themselves convicted felons. Prosecutors negate the past behavior of their ‘flawed witnesses’ by use of corroborating testimony from multiple other witnesses and corroborating hard evidence. Cohen’s part in the Prosecution’s case is not to provide new revelations of Defendant Trump’s crimes, rather to link the events and acts that others have already testified to and for which hard evidence has already been presented. It’s for the Jury to decide, and it’s getting very close to the time when they will; which perhaps explains the histrionics we’re having to put with from the Defendant’s supporters.
  3. I don’t watch FOX News for FACTS, it’s entertainment.
  4. Odd that you mention Obama. I tuned into FOX News for both his Presidential Election wins. Unmissable TV.
  5. I’m rather hoping he will be convicted. But that will be down to the Jury non of whom I know or know anything about, I doubt you don’t know them either. So it will come down to the evidence, the testimony and what the Jury make of it all. As I have said many times, I will accept the Jury’s verdict and yes you can hold me to that. I do hope we get a bit of notice before the verdict is handed down, I need to retune my TV to get FOX News for the occasion.
  6. The Prosecution have listed only one more witness, which suggests this case might very well go forward to jury deliberations within the next week.
  7. Knife crime has been tackled in the UK before; Glasgow, once known as the murder capital of Europe took a different approach to blaming immigrants or ‘blacks’ and it worked: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13624806231208432
  8. It’s a bit more complicated than your ‘usual suspects’. The statistic that jump off the page is knife attacks are almost always committed by young males, with male domestic abusers also putting in an appearance.
  9. Refer full fact link I provided. The majority of knife crimes in the UK are committed by people of white ethnicity. Now you can make the same argument, are these people immigrant? however all that does is demonstrate the lack of evidence that immigrants are responsible for the rise in knife crime. People born in the UK are not immigrants. There is at least one person in this thread putting all the blame on a particular ethnicity, it’s as ugly an argument as it is factually incorrect.
  10. What is it about brand newly minted members that they so often launch straight into posting overtly offensive comments?
  11. Forgive me Jonny, my post was unclear. I was responding to G-money who had quoted you and linked in your post to address the point I made. G-Money is definitely claiming the increase in knife crime in immigrants. But he doesn’t appear to know much about it. Individual are or are not immigrants, that’s what is undeniable.
  12. What because I back my arguments with links to credible sources?
  13. My countrymen? Apart from once again making completely unsubstantiated claimes Yep, that’s the ethnicity and gender of some knife crime offenders. Now all you have to do is demonstrate these individuals are themselves immigrants. Some information that doesn’t fit the rightwing narrative here in this thread: https://fullfact.org/crime/are-majority-youth-knife-offenders-minority-ethnic/
  14. Calm down now. Step back, take a another look and see if you can see which civilian population is currently the subject of ‘carnage’.
  15. I wonder if John (The Hawk) Bolton has a problem with the White House objecting to this behavior? https://www.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/may/13/total-outrage-white-house-condemns-israeli-settlers-attack-on-gaza-aid-convoy
  16. Again more baseless assumptions in your part. And of course a failure to back up your claims.
  17. If you have evidence that immigrants are responsible for the rise in stabbings in the UK I’m sure you would have shared it.
  18. No, you managed to avoid engaging in gaslighting and ad hominem, choosing rather to go with baseless assumptions and assigning your own fabricating views to others.
  19. More fear mongering from the UK’s failing PM. Stop hiding Rishi, call the election.
  20. What? Read my post you were trying to make a smart reply to again, see if you can spot what it is you didn’t understand before you hit send.
  21. So there goes the MAGA argument that the left control the news media. Thanks for posting.
  22. Because like Trump works within the judicial system? Or have daily appearances in court confused you on the matter?
  23. Why is anyone surprised that the people who want guns in schools support allowing disease in too?!
