Who else wants to give Cruz's face a good smack? Not because of his ideas, but purely for his weird facial features.

I've read the article about climate changing been prossecuted now.

Loretta Lynch talked about the matter have been discussed, they didn't started to do it. Plus, the justice isn't a puppet to the executive, so unless Obama is a master of deception and control, I doubt he gave the order for this to happen...

The base on which the discussion was made was in comparison to the tobacco industry lies about the existence of health issues created by tobacco use. It's an odd argument, which I don't agree totally with, but it makes it valid under the law. If there haven't been any prossecutions on the tobacco industry, maybe people would still smoke cigarettes today thinking it does good to health.

I don't think it would be that undemocratic to prossecute people because they spread lies about a scientific fact, just like it isn't undemocratic to prossecute people for defamation.

@SVY, Cruz's face is weird indeed.

This is very, very dangerous thinking.

Are we going to go back to the times of Galileo, with the Inquisition prosecuting people for thinking the earth is the center of the universe?

Is it a dangerous thinking? We're just talking about prossecuting people who lie about a possible catastrophic event that could destroy our plannet, often it's the same people paid by corporations...

The thing is, climate change has been proven by science. And also, the Inquisition prosecuted people who thought the earth wasn't the center of the universe, not the opposite lol.

... I think they are a little ridiculous, but I mean, a person has the right to an opinion, even if it is wrong.

Also I assume there will be one for Hilarly and Bernie right?

If we prosecuted people for saying fetuses aren't alive, would you object?

People can have an opinion, and you should never prosecute them for it. To do so is the beginning of tyranny and the downfall of a free republic.

Yes?

... Oh that wasn't towards me.

I never said that Lynch and the DoJ were prosecuting people for being climate deniers, I said they were considering prosecuting climate deniers. The latter in of itself is a dangerous incident and is a form of creeping totalitarianism. Also your idea that the President doesn't have control of the Secretary of a Cabinet Department is laughable. He appointed her and she is thus a servant of his political opinions and desires. You really think if Obama speaks to her on the phone and asks her not to prosecute sanctuary cities for not punishing and deporting illegal immigrants she's gonna say no? Oh please. Obama chose Lynch because she in all likelihood agrees with Obama on a lot of policy questions.

Wow!! This is scary. Statements like this are why anybody with a conservative belief system better vote Cruz and be proud of it. Authoritarianism and totalitarianism are only a president away, and by the sound of people like TeamGuns the new generation is already cozening up to the idea.

I never said I think people should be prossecuted for saying those things, but rather that I don't think it is undemocratic, there's a difference there ^^. You lose freedom there of course, and there's no deny on it, but as many conservatives say, yo can't have 100 percent freedom with 100 percent safety. Spreading lies about climate change does affect national safety as I see it, even more then Russia or North Korea for instance.

Yea, I know Obama appointed her, and there's an obvious reason why he appointed her, but I don't think she follows everything obama says... It would be the same thing as saying like supreme court justice Scalia just followed everything Reagan said to him and had no morals whatsoever.


@MightySpeck (a Koala)

Yea, I'll make other threads like this for them after. I do like Bernie, but there's a lot of things I could make fun off him as well. And Clinton, well, I don't think I could pass on her lol.

"It's called progress, you idiot!"

What... accusing Cruz of being a white supremacist...

#whyidontrespectyou

Does Eduardo Cruz remind anyone of Jim Jones?

Darth Darth Jinks, that's a meme topic, not all information is fully accurate.
