Sure but like I asked above, if porn reduces rapes, how do we know that this (gross) doesn't reduce children being sexually assaulted. I can't think of a single safe way it could be tested or monitored to find the better long term evil

That's the same suit people were bitching about here about with that YouTube kid(Mr. Beast) Lottery fraud or whatever
Edited went back to add name forgot it
While I understand their point, it's like going to the channel with the stock market banner on the bottom and complaining it is taking up part of the screen, where I would almost say the other 90% of the screen is the ads.
So many hours spent watching that as a child. It was either that channel or Bob Barker when I was on summer break
If they were taxed fairly it would be impossible to become a billionaire at this stage in our economy.
There is a large portion of the population that doesn't know anything about how 401ks work. They are told their employer will take 3% or such out of their income and put it into a 401k account, and some part of that money will be matched by the employer (varying).
Those who don't know the market don't touch the money, it is invested for them. So it is very possible whoever posted this is among those people. It is not always wise on their end, but if a professional can lose money investing large amounts for companies like that, so could an inexperienced person. The annual report for 2023 for my company's investments saw loses as well. The little money I had was elsewhere so I lucked out on that part.
Maybe they meant raisinettes, a lot of people don't like raisons.
Edit: never mind, milk duds are chewy as hell, but also good. I ruled them out because I figured most people would like them (assuming their teeth don't get pulled out).
Side note: if you didnt chew now&laters and instead sucked on them. You have infinitely more self control than I do.
Scenario: you have 10 kids. Would you rather 1 kid thrive, 4 do alright, 4 struggling to find food, and one starving, or all 10 eat well?
The reason that kid is starving is directly tied to why the first one is thriving. It isn't because there wasn't enough food, it's because the one thriving was taking the food from the rest, and throwing away a lot of it along the way, not caring at all about his siblings
Yeah, much of the issues brought up seem to be tied to prohibition where if guilty charges increased dramatically (roughly from 3 to 30 percent) it would say they are entering with a predetermined thought of going against the law. The other common cases brought up were all tied to racism.
The fun is this for me is the thought that a supernatural force attacked you in your sleep, you claim it to be a Christian/religious force, and yet at no point does he acknowledge/reflect that maybe his actions may cause scrutiny by his religious beliefs.
Thought process?: "My God created everything, including deamons sent to attack me personally, clearly I am doings gods work"
Tuna Cowboy discussed that below, it appears there are cases that show otherwise listed on the link he sent. In theory that is how jury's should work. From said page:
In 1988, the Sixth Circuit upheld a jury instruction: "There is no such thing as valid jury nullification." In United States v. Thomas (1997), the Second Circuit ruled that jurors can be removed if there is evidence that they intend to nullify the law. The Supreme Court has not recently confronted the issue of jury nullification. In 2017, a jury was instructed: "You cannot substitute your sense of justice, whatever that means, for your duty to follow the law, whether you agree with it or not. It is not for you to determine whether the law is just or whether the law is unjust. That cannot be your task. There is no such thing as valid jury nullification. You would violate your oath and the law if you willfully brought a verdict contrary to the law given to you in this case." The Ninth Circuit upheld the first three sentences of the jury's instruction and overruled the remainder but deemed that instruction a harmless error and affirmed the conviction.[67]
Looks like it will get messy about whether such would be allowed, and whether you yourself could catch trouble for ruling against the law.
I would prefer a crow
