The justice system is, conclusively, filled with bigotry, prejudices, favouritism etc.

Now it's making sense that you don't understand a simple and straightforward meme.

...and you didn't follow that comment either apparently.

Edit:

To clue you in. This "[w]hatever bias, bigotry, favoritism, or prejudice you think might exist" means that it's beside the point that's about to come next in the sentence, the point you ignored.

That you try to railroad the conversation where you get to avoid established facts or pretend they don't exist is the least surprising thing I've read all day.

...and you've failed to follow the conversation again.
You said that already so I'll say this again: I'm not letting you railroad conversation where you think you're entitled to bypass established facts.

If you don't get that the justice system is inequitable, that's your problem.

Please cite me bypassing established facts. Specifically explain which facts I'm "bypassing" and how they are relevant. Please also cite me stating that the justice system is equitable.

Edit:

While you're at it. Also cite this one:

And in doing so you sided with the rest of all the paedophiles.
Fascinating. Ok, quote me doing that.

Wait I posted a meme illustrating inequity in the justice system and all this time you were agreeing with me?

How about being direct? The justice system is inequitable and that's a certainty to me. Am I wrong?

My issue with the image that you posted is not whether or not the justice system is inequitable, but that it undercuts its message by highlighting illegal parking, which is not a good example. You tried to broaden the conversation away from the point I was making - which is that parking citations are no big deal, and so the image is dumb. It's a poorly thought out attempt at class warfare and tribalism.

In terms of parking citations? No, not really. In other ways? Oh for sure, but we probably don't agree on which ways and how.
 
He has cut your taxes...

He's cut some people's taxes, no doubt. But I doubt that's true for very many people here.

...and is getting rid of stupid regulations.

What regulation has he gotten rid of for a better reason than he wanted to undo something Obama did? How has your life been improved by any of it?

Everything Trump does is heavily scrutinized.

No more than any other president, as far as I can tell. Certainly no more than Obama. I know if feels different, but the difference isn't in the amount of scrutiny; it's that it's now actually turning up criminal wrongdoing.

I wouldn't worry about him going full dictator.

Cool. I'm sure we can all just rest easy now, then. Noted neutral observer Chrunch has no qualms, why should anybody else?

And as for silencing people? Who?

How about we start with Alexander Vindman?

Hell, even John Bolton has a book coming out soon.

As Scaff pointed out, he has tried to stop the publication of Bolton's book.

He rags on the press, but my god, they have been ragging on him since he came down the escalator.

That's their job - to keep an eye on our elected officials and keep us informed of their actions. It's Trump's fault that he actually does inappropriate and illegal things for them to report on, not the media's.

The inequity of the justice system extends from common citations all the way to criminal prosecutions.
Meaning that just because a person isn't a criminal, it does not mean they're immune from being mistreated.

Presumably in response to the the DOJ's weighing in on Roger Stone's sentencing--which followed Trump's twitting his dissatisfaction over the proposed prison sentence, not surprisingly--that led to prosecutors removing themselves from the case, undoubtedly and understandably disgusted with the unprecedented cronyism.

Bramhall also re-uploaded earlier 'toons that are relevant:

In response to these, I'd say we're a couple of news cycles away from Trump defenders changing their stance from

"That's fake news"

to

"Yeah, so what?"

We have a few resident members are very nearly there already.

You're probably normal.
 
A photograph by British photographer Sam Rowley that captures the activities of mice on the London Underground. It won him the the Wildlife Photographer of the Year LUMIX People's Choice award. Some kind of commentary on contemporary life I guess ... :)

This photograph seems to have made the rounds of the international media over the last few days. I noticed it popping up on a CNN segment. Congrats to Sam Rowley. Just goes to show that crawling around on your stomach on a Tube platform photographing mice IS time well spent! 👍
