  • The federal judge in the state of Louisiana, Terry Doughty, appointed for the 16th century. May a court hearing in “ in the interest of dispelling our strong suspicion that the government has just deported a US citizen without appropriate proceedings.” The US government argues that “all that it was all right” because the mother, who lives without valid residence papers in the US, had expressed the wish that the child would be deported with it. “But the court does not know this,” the judge said. At the same time, Doughty pointed out that the deportation of US citizens was “illegal and unconstitutional.”

    You’re arguing to deport a terminally ill American citizen out of state. We don’t have to kick out the mom just to scratch our racist itches.

    I don’t think that’s how that works. Historically, peace rarely gets results. Do you think the end of the holocaust came about through peaceful protest? French or American revolution? The hands off protest was marked 3rd largest in US history by Wikipedia and nothing has changed. Black lives matter protests were arguably ineffective considering we elected Trump again. We see time and time again that armed conservatives and police forces freely obtain what they want so much to the point that their most desperate members felt comfortable enough to storm the Capitol and they got pardoned. I think the mindset to advocate for peace isn’t one that aligns with results. We see the results. I don’t like violence, but I know they’d love to inflict violence against me.


  • Crazy how ethics work. Like a pig might be more physically and mentally capable than an individual in a vegetative state, but we place more value on the person. I’m no vegan, but I can see the contradiction here. When we generalize, it’s done so for a purpose, but these assumptions can only be applied to a certain extent before they’ve exhausted their utility. Whether it’s a biological system or an electrical circuit, there is no godly commandment that inherently defines or places value on human life.
