    I didn't say anything at all about shutting down free speech. My assessments of you are correct.

    Nope. Not true. You are the way you are politically because you're full of hate and selfishness.

    Problem vball is that Trump acted without consideration or conscience. Hell W waited 3 1/2 years before issuing his first and even Obama waited 2 years. Trump took an opportunity that can only be judged in the worst way...that he used the pardon as a signal to those being investigated by Mueller not to worry. Otherwise what was the hurry? Let the appeal process work it's way out at least. Also the DOJ has a policy in place that requires a 5 year wait before considering any pardon. He wasn't going to prison so a humanitarian reason doesn't exist.
    Beyond the strictly legal how can anyone justify and compromise with the actions he took. It's one thing to be tough on crime and have the outdoor prison and another to torture prisoners. How can you defend it in any way????

    I didn't know that racial profiling was actually a crime. I thought it was just frowned on by the left. How the fuck else are you supposed to catch the bad guys. If blacks or hispanics are committing the most armed robberies or murders then you have to look at blacks or hispanics to catch them. If you were trying to find out who was doing some insider trading would you look in the hoods and barrios or would you look for white guys wearing expensive suits?

    Isn't it remarkable how a person who claims that Hillary Clinton is guilty of numerous crimes, even though she's the most investigated person in the history of this country and yet has never been indicted, turns around and insists that because Joe Arpaio has never been convicted he's an innocent lamb?

    Are you throwing a party for all those who voted you the award? Better buy one beer and a small bag of chips.

    For law enforcement? He was stopping anyone that was of Latino decent and asking them for their papers.

    If you are looking for illegal aliens that's who you stop. Stopping black or white people or even Asians wouldn't be likely to turn up many illegals.
