Etiquette



DP Etiquette

First rule: Don't be a jackass.

Other rules: Do not attack or insult people you disagree with. Engage with facts, logic and beliefs. Out of respect for others, please provide some sources for the facts and truths you rely on if you are asked for that. If emotion is getting out of hand, get it back in hand. To limit dehumanizing people, don't call people or whole groups of people disrespectful names, e.g., stupid, dumb or liar. Insulting people is counterproductive to rational discussion. Insult makes people angry and defensive. All points of view are welcome, right, center, left and elsewhere. Just disagree, but don't be belligerent or reject inconvenient facts, truths or defensible reasoning.

Big SCOTUS decision coming Monday…


Yes, the one we’ve all been waiting for: 

Does a President of the U.S. have absolute immunity?

The immunity case in Donald J. Trump v. United States will center on one simple sentence: “whether and if so to what extent does a former President enjoy presidential immunity from criminal prosecution for conduct alleged to involve official acts during his tenure in office.” -constitutioncenter.org

So, what do you think?  If yes, should Biden order Seal Team 6 to go in and assassinate DJT as an official act of saving democracy?  Okay, I kid (barely). 🤨

Yes, that is a ridiculous statement on its face.  But in actuality, from what I can tell, we are dealing with exactly that scenario. 

What makes something an official act?  Need it be in the Constitution to be an official act?  Otherwise, how is it determined?

The nightmare awaits.  Discuss or Disqus... pick your poison.
