Ignore the clueless child. As I said before, nothing he posts here has any value.

Why are you bringing up liberals in the United States? This crime happened in Mexico and is under the jurisdiction of Mexican courts. The only way a US court could try to claim jurisdiction is if the attacker and the victim are both American. There may be statutes out there that allow the US feds to also file charges like when they catch Americans abroad hooking up with minors, but so far it looks like the US will mostly stay out of this case.

And just to be clear to the readers out there, this Dogers69 guy also previously complained about San Diego California being a high crime dangerous city which is not even close to being true. San Diego is one of the safest cities in the US. Dogers69 also complained about the weather in San Diego when San Diego literally is regarded as having the best weather in the whole United States.

Dogers69 is known for making outlandish claims that don't seem to be grounded in reality or logic.

Well it's a clear cut case. If he only gets 10 years in prison God help us all. Between covid, liberals defund prison cops mandate, maybe he gets 5 years. 5 years ago I would say he gets 20. United states certainly has changed a lot since covid arrived, majority politically active people (rioters, looters, killers, cancel culture) are definitely anti locking people up long term even for murder.

Here we go again with another misinformed individual on the "Big Lie" ticket. Biden is not going to defund the police. As a matter of fact, he is going to invest more in police. Do your homework and don't start spreading that Trump and Republican "Big Lie" BS with us.

Lies. Where did you get that from?

He'll spend a lot of time in Mexico because their judicial system is very slow. Eventually he will be extradited to the United States because Mexico will not want to take care of him for the rest of his natural life. As far as I know Mexico does not have a death penalty but murder does carry a life sentence. Once he is in the United States he will spend some time in prison but will eventually be let out. I expect this whole process to take 10-15 years. I read that he is 26 years old. I expect him to be out by the time he's 40-45. I don't know why this happened but the pics of this dead chica laying on the floor with towels covering her and blood everywhere is the sickest thing I've seen happen in the zona. It looks like something out of a horror movie. Many may disagree but I think the club should be punished harshly. They're operating illegally in a pandemic and should be held accountable for their employee. Hefty fines and maybe shut down for a period of time. Moe.

Take a look at the Democrat Party donor base and you'll see who owns them. The swing voters or the part of the electorate that would vote a third party will come from both main parties, from all parts of the political spectrum, not at all exclusively from non-Trump republicans as your mainstream media would have you believe. Just look at the polls on who supports universal or one-payer healthcare and you'll see where the votes are.

IMHO, they both are bought and paid for by many of the same donors. Best to support both because one will lose and one will win and you want to be able to tell the winner you supported him. The mob was very good at that too. Agree on who wants a 3rd party. Many from each party and Indies but for different reasons. The reason I said non-Trump Republicans is because I have seen at least 3 or 4 saying that. At least 2 from Lincoln group.

But to be absolutely clear, I have little to no faith in any political system or party. All run by self serving people who know how to talk and tell people what they want to hear. Kind of like preachers who can get the last penny from a poor man.

This week in Texas shows why you do not deregulate. These plants were not required to winterize and that is the problem. El Paso which is on the western grid is fine. Public utilities need to remain public utilities, privatization is a scam.

Privatization generates fees for the banksters, and interest income streams for the parasites. Creating tollbooths for essential services: this is the model being inflicted on the citizenry. As long as they can get away with it, they'll keep doing it.

Natural gas and nuclear are the smartest choices for USA. Malaysia power is over 50% generated by natural gas and all their vehicles are natural gas. USA has huge reserves of natural gas that could give low electric prices to everyone. But the green deal will convert us to wind and solar and double and triple everyone power costs. Like Germany and California that have gotten to 30% green power and their electricity bills have doubled. Estimate tripled if they get to 50%. Low income families will not be able to afford electricity for their house let alone an electric car. This week in Texas shows the weakness in wind power.

Natural gas is why Texas is in crisis. All the valves and control systems don't like the cold so the gas doesn't flow! Solar and wind are taking over because they are cheaper irrespective of government policy. Nuclear is just not economic to build at least not in the US. This week Texas showed what poor policy brings you. They don't plan for freezing weather and when they get it they cannot cope. Wind turbines work in frezzing conditions if you put the anti freeze devices on them. Natural gas flows when you use the correct valves and control systems. Republicans fail again and try to blame everyone but their own policy failures. Maybe if they connected to other grids then they could have been helped out by competent operators.

Hilarious. LMFAO!

Are these dumb pictures supposed to be worth three thousand words?

They aren't.

Communism has never existed in real life. Go ahead, prove me wrong if you can.

No one here has hots for communism. Like I've said before, all attempts at building a communist society have ended up in failure, human misery and mass graves.

But you and your ideological allies are grossly misusing all 'isms. ' Fascism, communism, socialism too.

I understand why fearmongers are doing this. Throw "communism" around a bit, and people start running for cover.

Just don't scare yourselves shitless, too, you guys.

Funny, a discussion like this one is not exactly why I come to ISG, but it kind of pulls you in, LOL.

Explain to me how wind power showed weakness in Texas this week?

We have this post to clearly show your lack of intelligence and willingness to believe right-wing lies.

[John Clayton]

...This week in Texas shows the weakness in wind power.

This is just a bold face, simple, lie. It is Republican disinformation. According to the State ERCOT it's a lie. According to right wing Texas news sources it is a lie. You are repeating a proven lie. I believe you know this is a lie and are deliberately spreading disinformation.

We do not approve of willful liars on this forum. You should apologize to this forum for knowingly repeating this lie.
