from wannabe climate activists to begging other countries to produce more fossil fuels ^_^

it’s okay for other countries to produce oil and to have transnational pipelines. In America doing this is racism. So says our govt and lefty leadership (celebs, hollywood, former politicians, corporate ceos, etc)

Its not racism, its just plain stupid to allow CAN oil to flow throw our country simply to have the jobs and building in 5 years? then it goes away.. And we watch CAN dollars flow through our country thereafter.
To also run of native American lands is pretty shady. But yes I know CAN capitalism=freedom!!

The US constitution very specifically forbids ex post facto criminal laws at the federal and state level (literally written into art 1 sec 9 and art 1 sec 10, specifically forbidding ex post facto laws), and then implicitly forbids it in the due process clause. The state and federal government just love to tip-toe around this by creating civil laws that are essentially criminal in effect but claim they aren't punitive even if they're clearly, blatantly punitive, as long as they stop short of imprisonment. Then they get these judges who say hey, constitution is really more of what you call guidelines, by saying that we can go and retroactively criminalize punitively penalize penalize far in excess of actual damages conduct that was not in jeopardy before the fact of the law.

Its one of those things where the constitution can try very very very hard to specify that state's can't criminalize something after the fact or deny fair trials or right to see evidence against you, so they'll instead slap you with a billion dollar fine and seize all your assets, without a fair trial, while 'suing an inanimate object' in civil forfeiture or whatever.


I don't doubt what you are saying one bit, I've seen many of your diablo 2 posts, you know what you're saying or you just don't talk in case you don't.

my point was that from my pov, some crimes should never prescribe. crimes against children (such as in this alleged case), rape and murder.

The more serious the crime the more important the due process. If a government can use accusations of crimes with harsh penalties like crimes against children, rape and murder to lock people up, then stripping away civil liberties and protections under the law in the guise of more zealously prosecuting offenders, results in innocent people being locked up for a very long time. Its why when someone is accused of say, murdering a guy by kneeling on his neck with so little pressure it didn't even leave a mark, the government should be required to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that was the actual cause of death and not say the lethal dose of fentanyl he ingested after having a history of near-lethal overdoses using the same drugs. Just to give one nonspecific example of the seriousness of a crime weighted against the due process of the accused.

But back to the original point- how are people like Bob Dylan or Brett Kavanaugh supposed to refute accusations made without evidence from half a century ago? There's a reason we have statutes of limitations in criminal law, and civil law only gets away without them because its basically the autistic red headed stepchild of the judicial system

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

Yes, with accusations 50 years later I agree as well.

Even in Harvey Weinstein's case, these were too late. And many of those women profited from him fucking them. Ema Watson comes to mind.

obviously the answer is to produce a diary containing passages on how much you like beer.

I don't know how CAN oil lowers the cost of gas to the consumer.
That is foreign oil STILL to be produced elsewhere and bought by the US.
