You mean Trump? What a ham.

I'm gonna disagree. The pig was captive of a facility regulated by, and therefore executed according to, a federally appointed agency. It was capitol punishment without due process.

Could it be more evidence of that "factious spirit" that has tainted public administration?

Therefore, does it make more sense to indict a living person under suspicion of multiple offenses, or to charge the corpse of a dead pig who has offended no one, and in fact surrendered it's life for...

Would that not impose double jeopardy since the pig already suffered capitol punishment?

It's easy to pass judgement on people of the past by modern standards, but it is by faulty logic. Two terms may apply, either "Historian's fallacy" or "Presentism." If 200 years from now everyone is...

Federalist 10:

The Declaration states that all men are created equal in their rights. It says nothing about the abilities, physical or mental, of men. It seems reasonable to me that certain characteristics,...

Why would the founders separate from the ruling class of England just to turn around and create a ruling class in America? Makes no sense.

In fact "All men are created equal" is not a declaration...

Back, for a moment, to the restroom issue, et. al. Isn't the objection that has been expressed, to these cultural changes, related to long standing mores and traditions stemming, in large part, from...

I was refering to your comment "Such a load."

What a way to misrepresent the issue, well done.

No need to be nasty.
