The 1st Amendment means we don’t recognize religion in government policy, so if the religious freaks don’t want to follow the law, they can pack back up into the Mayflower, and find another landmass to live. May I suggest Antarctica.

Quarantine is so much easier than a vaccination. /s

That’s what I said, with a lot more syllables.

If we can just hold out long enough, MAGA will essentially destroy itself as they all throw each other under the bus.

Eventually, there will only be one MAGA left, and we, as a society, will have to throw them under the bus, and end MAGA forever.

You might be talking about humans, but they’re not.

He has all the charm of an unwiped asshole.

The Carrol issue isn’t over yet. It will go to the Supreme Court, but if he loses, he certainly will pay. In order to continue his appeals, he had to purchase a $91 million bond, which will cover the award if he loses his appeals.

It’s not yet clear if he will have to pay or not, but if the courts declare him the loser, then she’ll get his money, whether he likes it or not.

Make him replace it with his own money.

Generally you are right, but now and then there is a historical spasm that makes a relatively quick historical change - the American Revolution, the French Revolution, the Fall of the Iron Curtain, etc.

I think the fall of MAGA could be like that. If they rig the 2028 election for him to win again, then America normality has ended and it’s time to get to some serious revolution.

Which means when the dam breaks, it’s going to get real ugly, real fast.

There’s a long road ahead, and revenge is a dish best served cold.

C’mon, you know theyve already quarantined the good stuff. They’ll release a few salacious details, but conveniently, nothing will be actionable.

This is America. Of course not.

When they wanted to prosecute the guy who threw a sub sandwich at the ICE agent, the Grand Jury shot them down twice. So they altered the charges so they didn’t require a grand jury to go to court.

In court, the ICE agent whined about how he had PTSD, since the sandwich burst open on his uniform, and smeared mustard and onions all over it, which he had to smell all day, causing massive psychological harm.

The defense introduced a photograph of the sandwich, laying in the road, AFTER the throw, and it was still tightly wrapped. It hadn’t burst open, no mustard or onions were smeared. The ICE agents entire testimony was a straight up lie. The jury found the sandwich thrower Not Guilty.

So I suspect that their next move will be to adjust the charges to bypass the Grand Jury.

The government AND the national debt ALWAYS grow under Republicans.

The descriptions of nitrogen poisoning are well documented in both the scientific and medical communities, and they are at completely at odds with those descriptions. I have never heard of any other death by nitrogen that fits anything close to that. Just the opposite.

That means either the authorities screwed up in applying the strategy, which is definitely possible, considering how incompetent they often are, or the prisoners were acting, or both, which is probably the likely answer.

If a person is sealed into a tight space filled with nitrogen, they won’t have any other symptoms, other than sleepiness. No thrashing, no seizures, etc. That is simple scientific/medical fact. If those descriptions are accurate, then they are indictive of another problem other than nitrogen. I suspect the mask that they are using isn’t flooding their systems with nitrogen as thoroughly as is required, causing the body to fight back.

Stick the person in a small sealed chamber, fill a small container with liquid nitrogen, which evaporates at a rate of 695.5 to 1, and it will fill a chamber like that VERY quickly as it evaporates, displacing ALL the oxygen, and putting the victim to sleep in only a few breaths.

Evacuating the CO2? That wouldn’t have anything to do with it.

For one thing, the executions I’ve read about used masks around the nose and mouth, which I would think would be very prone to manipulation by the victim. In any case, there is no way for CO2 to build up.

That would take a chamber, which they aren’t using, as far as I know, but even if they were, it would take hours for CO2 to build up enough to have even the slightest effect. A chamber would work the best, allowing the room to fill with nitrogen, which the victim has no choice but to breathe, eventually. Within a few breaths, they will be unable to stay awake, and they will fall asleep forever, suffering NO ill effects along the way (other than death, of course).

Reports of “agony,” thrashing, etc. is all just prisoner theatre. Of course many of them are going to play it up for sympathy, this is their last moment on the stage. The actual fact is that nitrogen poisoning is about the most tranquil death there is. People die from it every year, and there has never been evidence of the victims suffering any death throes. Universally, they all appear to have just fallen into permanent sleep.

The most humane method is Nitrogen Asphyxiation. Since we already breathe a 78% nitrogen atmosphere, as the concentration rises, and the oxygen level (19%) decreases, our bodies handle the increased concentration easily. Instead of getting nauseous, or a headache, or hallucinations, etc, you just get tired, fall asleep, and die, with no other symptoms at all. It is a fast, peaceful, humane, and efficient way to kill any living creature. And since it doesn’t require any medications or injections, no doctor needs to be involved, and violate their oath.

They are already using it a few states.

The MAGAs are reading all kinds of stuff into those words, which are very clear.

I just heard a guy rationalizing all over the place, that the 14th was ONLY to make citizens of the newly freed slaves, because…it didn’t even include Native Americans, so how could we think it means people from other countries? What if an invading soldier from another country has a child in America, is the child a citizen? Etc.

If it was to mean all those nuances they want it to mean, them those things should have been written explicitly into the Amendment, but they weren’t. So modern MAGAs don’t get to decide that they get to rewrite past passed amendments to suit their racist demands, especially since even by their own definition, it was written to do something that they would be against (citizenship for slaves and their children).
