    An Obvious Observation on Education

    Nope. That is a logical fallacy called "appeal to hypocrisy." It is objectively NOT logically relevant at all. Americans learn this lesson in preschool. That Johnny got away with being naughty last week without being caught doesn't mean that you get to be naughty today without repercussions.

    No. Can't say I've seen that.

    Appeal to hypocrisy. Historic US behavior does not excuse current Russian behavior.

    So the plight of Americans in US red states is comparable to the plight of Palestinians in Gaza?

    Moscow concert hall terrorist attack: Shooting and explosion reported

    Of course you were. That's the standard Russian defense for Russia's criminal actions. "The US is worse!" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/And_you_are_lynching_Negroes#

    Then there isn't much of a future for those people whom Hamas governs.

    We have a plan to end gun violence.

    Yes we can. The question is: Should we? ;)

    Imagine If Russia Or China Did The Things IZrael Is Doing In Gaza..

    If the Ukrainian or Taiwanese government sent an army into Russia or China respectively and targeted innocent Russian/Chinese civilians for rape and slaughter because they sought to rid themselves of all Russian/Chinese neighbors, I would imagine there would be a considerable amount of sympathy...

    Jon Stewart benefited by 829% ‘overvalue’ of his NYC home even as he labels Trump’s civil case ‘not victimless’

    You are misinterpreting this. He didn't say it is materially false. He said it's material to the investigation and to the criminal penalties for fraud, IF fraud is involved. It's similar to how organized crime is prosecuted. It isn't against the law for a janitor making minimum wage and paying...

    Jon Stewart benefited by 829% ‘overvalue’ of his NYC home even as he labels Trump’s civil case ‘not victimless’

    No, that's incorrect. He specifically stated that it isn't based on the degree of discrepancy. It is based on whether or not fraudulent statements were made to get there. The discrepancy is just cause for investigation. Why would any judge rule that a valuation over tax appraised value is...

    Thank you. That literally says that it matters how you get there. It isn't the mere fact that the appraisal was too high, the problem is that getting there was based on fraud. You can't fudge the numbers in order to get a higher appraisal.

    Do you have a link? Because it certainly matters how you get there.

    We have a plan to end gun violence.

    Neither is recreational alcohol consumption equivalent to medical pathology. While we can't outlaw addiction to alcohol, we could outlaw the recreational use of alcohol, couldn't we?

    Of course they did. Lying about the square footage of your property has always been fraud. You don't get to "fudge the numbers" on official documents just because you think your property is worth more than the market value.
