Re: Hunter Biden's Tax Returns would clear all this up!

Both sides are corrupt and use their influence to gain $$$ and favors for their friends and family.

Surprise!

The thing is, there's no evidence that Joe Biden did anything to get his son this job, besides have an important name on which his son could trade. Again - not a good thing, but not ...

Re: China trashes the planet

Yes, really.

In 2018, [China] produced more carbon emissions than the United States and the European Union combined.

China's population is roughly 150% of the US and EU combined, so it is totally unsurprising that China's gross emissions are higher.

Re: Hunter Biden's Tax Returns would clear all this up!

The question it seems to me is, not whether Hunter Biden did anything wrong, but that Trump is asking other countries to help him out against a political rival. Am I wrong? That is to say, if Hunter Biden was shown to be completely innocent, that would change the situation how?

But, I mean, stats, though

Tebow couldn't hit Eric Decker or Demariyus Thomas. Those are some very good wideouts he consistently underthrew by 5 yards.

How is this relevant? Granted, Tebow was a running quarterback like Kaepernick, but that's where the similarity ends. There was nothing remotely political about the end of his career.

Tebow was known and hated for a public display (in this case kneeling on one knee after a touchdown). Kaepernick ...

Yeah, but pretty wildly impractical. There's a reason most guns don't use ammunition that weighs a pound or two each and only really hurts if you hit them with one end.

Re: mass shooters - mental illness / Insanity Plea

So why do we use guns to murder people? it sounds like you're arguing against guns here. I won't tell the NRA, don't worry.

And yes, reloading a gun and refilling a tank of gas are super comparable actions. Do you know anything about guns or cars?
