History would tell us that we do have a good idea what will happen during the midterms. There's a good chance that Democrats will lose the House and/or the Senate. There's no telling what will happen in 2024 though.

The CDC estimates that COVID has an R0 number of 2.5. This suggests that herd immunity should be achieved once 60-70% of our population has immunity. I know that Fauci has said that it's higher, but the R0 data doesn't support that claim. I believe he's just saying that to encourage as many...

The use of lethal force is only authorized when the officer believes the criminal poses a significant threat of serious bodily injury or death to themselves or others. Resisting arrest might get you thrown down to the pavement, but it shouldn't cost you your life. The biggest issue I see isn't...

I haven't seen confirmation on either of these stories, but this is what I'm seeing on Twitter.

From your link: Temporary tags print directly from a laser printer on white 8.5 x 11 synthetic paper, which is provided by DMV at no charge. The weather-resistant product does not require a plastic sleeve and is affixed directly to the vehicle using four screws. Vehicle and dealership...

I cited Supreme Court cases, because they show that police have the right to order someone to exit the vehicle during a traffic stop. I cited Virginia law, because that's what determines whether or not this was a lawful traffic stop. Here's a link to the specific Virginia law requiring license...

I've never studied Virginia law, but it's pretty universal that license plates have to be illuminated well enough to be read from 50 feet away at night. Mounting a temporary tag behind a tinted window would've been in violation of these laws. The stop wouldn't have been considered "completed"...

The order was lawful. The Supreme Court has ruled that police have the right to order people to get out of their vehicle during a traffic stop. https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/519/408/ https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/434/106/ He should've been pepper sprayed and...

If a police officer orders you to exit your vehicle during a traffic stop, you're legally required to do so. If they order you to exit your vehicle 20 times and you refuse, you have no one to blame but yourself when they forcibly remove you. That guy seems like a psychopath. He should've been...

That looks about right. I want a small & efficient government that gives me social & economic freedom.

Have you tried a Google search? ;) (Make sure to use an antivirus, because I know nothing about these sites.) It's my understanding that downloading or distributing copyrighted material is illegal unless you have consent from the rights holder. Just about everyone does this to some extent...

IMO, out of the 3 charges he's facing, 2nd degree manslaughter fits the best. I have no idea what the jury will do though. I'm sure they're feeling significant pressure to convict him of murder.

That's true. We would probably be better off if Congress was full of regular people from different walks of life as opposed to career politicians. They need be qualified though. They can't support & defend the Constitution if they don't understand it.

Tuberville may not know the 3 branches of government, but he did take Auburn to an undefeated season. So he's clearly qualified to be a senator in the state of Alabama. :D It's kind of scary to think that we have bartenders and football coaches crafting our country's legislation.

What bothers me isn't intelligence, it's ignorance. Someone shouldn't be allowed to vote if they don't even understand what they're voting for.

The police are typically allowed to detain someone after they've committed a crime. You're technically detained during a traffic stop until after the police officer tells you you're allowed to leave. So I assume the police were well within their rights to detain him since he was walking down the...

Most people can be successful paper trading, but they fail trading with real money. The reason for that is emotions. I'm a big believer that emotional detachment is necessary to have success with active trading. I never trade with money I need, so I definitely wouldn't take out a loan to trade...

If you have a 5 figure account and a system that returns 10-15% per month, you don't need a loan, you need patience.
