    Across an immense, unguarded, ethereal border, Canadians, cool and unsympathetic,
    regard our America with envious eyes and slowly and surely draw their plans against us.

    You’d explode so it wouldn’t be an issue.

    Since today's date is 0202 2020 and is the same going forward and back can we use this as an opportunity to reverse the clock?

    The Alford Plea
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alford_plea



    Assistant principal accused of raping 16-year-old avoids jail

    An assistant principal charged with raping a 16-year-old student in Missouri has avoided jail time by accepting an Alford plea, allowing her to assert innocence while acknowledging the evidence proves her guilt beyond reasonable doubt. . . .




    Lawyerification Gone Too Far!

    Stranger then truth but is!


    Got to wonder about such judges who would allow this plea.
    Similar to allowing an Affluenza defense.

    George Zimmerman sues Pete Buttigieg and Elizabeth Warren over tweets honouring Trayvon Martin

    George Zimmerman, the Florida neighbourhood watchman famously acquitted after killing 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, has filed a lawsuit against Elizabeth Warren and Pete Buttigieg over tweets the presidential candidates posted to commemorate the shooting victim's birthday.

    The lawsuit cited separate tweets both candidates posted on 5 February, the victim’s birthday, in which they call out issues of gun violence and prejudice in the US.

    “Trayvon Martin would have been 25 today,” Mr Buttigieg, former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, wrote in his tweet. “How many 25th birthdays have been stolen from us by white supremacy, gun violence, prejudice, and fear?#BlackLivesMatter.”

    Ms Warren (D—MA) said her “heart goes out” to the shooting victim’s family and friends, writing: “He should still be with us today.” . .
    "We need to end gun violence and racism." . . :rolleyes:



    Mr Zimmerman, the 36-year-old claimed in his lawsuit that Mr Buttigieg and Ms Warren were committing “defamation with actual malice or at a minimum a reckless disregard for the truth”.

    Quite dissimilar.

    An Alford Plea is similar to a plea of No Contest. Obviously, there's no allocution at sentencing. It's accepted by prosecutions for the purpose of mitigation.

    The affluenza defense resulted in a not guilty jury verdict.

    It's not the plea that keep her out of prison. It's likely the prosecution has a major witness problem, and getting her to plead rather than going into an iffy trial was a way to at least give her a spanking like getting her on a sex offender registry.

    As I Said,

    Too Much Lawyerfication.

    For decades I have proposed a Supreme Court nominee not be a Lawyer
    but, maybe an accomplished America Historian.
    Harry Truman and Eisenhower were not "lawyers".
    Maybe Reagan wasn't either.
    I do not agree with a "reading" of the Constitution per "lawyers" as
    the sole supreme law of the land.


    A "no contest" nor "Alford Plea" should reduce a proper sentence
    from a "guilty plea". Such as raping a minor!
    Too Much Lawyerfication
    Not enough "Justice", applied with equality.

    Get It Or Not!

    No contest & Alford pleas are guilty pleas. There's no point in the expense & time of a trial if the results are the same especially for overworked prosecutors..

    RT is an interesting source.
    US doesn’t even need to bully the International Criminal Court — it can’t do a thing about the war crimes in Afghanistan anyway

    Chinese Billionaire Jack Ma Is Donating
    500,000 Coronavirus Test Kits to the US

    Chinese billionaire Jack Ma has pledged to donate 500,000 coronavirus test kits and 1 million face masks to the United States in the face of the global pandemic.

    As the United States lags behind its fellow nations in providing test kits to those potentially impacted by COVID-19, the Jack Ma Foundation announced Thursday that their donation is “sourced and readied for shipment” to Americans. . . .





    :angered:
    Next thing y'know Chinese children will be told to

    That’s rubbing salt in it, isn’t it? The object of the winnable trade war is offering charity to the US.

    We could become like France or Great Britain
    with that
    "we used to be great" mentality.

    Donald Trump told the US that it wasn’t great anymore.
