    As a signatory to the 1951 UNHCR Convention on the status of refugees, the USA is obliged not to punish asylum seekers for illegal entry to it's territory.

    The Border Situation: Not the Holocaust

    13 months. 3 months for contempt of court in 2017, where the sentence was suspended as long as he didn't repeat the behaviour. That was activated, and a further 10 months added, when he did exactly that recently - once more publishing allegations about people involved in an ongoing court case...

    NFL to punish teams over National Anthem

    You are absolutely right that there is no such thing as limitless freedom of speech in the workplace for an employee. Does an employer have the right to compel an employee to participate in an act of worship that they disagree with by making it part of their employment contract? Do employers...

    Net Neutrality

    Do you think this forum has a right to decide which forums users can post in, based on their beliefs, and to censor content that doesn't meet their guidelines? Or is that another example of "doing the wrong thing in the first place"? If you think private companies should not be able to apply...

    Are there any depths these Socialists won't stoop to? They will be demanding a Socialist police force and military next!

    Net Neutrality

    You'll be glad to learn that if a private company is violating the terms of the contract you entered into with them, by censoring your contributions in violation of the contract terms, you can pursue them for damages. Of course, if you haven't entered into a contract with them - for example, by...

    Extremist Southern Poverty Law Center has prominent role in YouTube moderation

    Every other video service is equally accessible - just type their address in instead of YouTube. If they are the most influential, that means they are the "biggest" - but being the largest doesn't mean you have a monopoly. You aren't a customer of YouTube. They don't charge you to access their...

    Misogyny hate crime law debated in Parliament

    It does feel a little redundant, having to post exactly the same quote from the new article you posted as I did in my previous reply, but here you go, from your new link: "This is why I am calling on the government to extend the current five strands of hate crime to include misogyny,” she said...

    Uncomfortable Around Female Colleagues? MeToo...

    The issue is that the CPS had evidence that could have cleared the defendant, but didn't release it to the defence. Those decisions were made by one or more members of the prosecution team - why should we assume that they only made such erroneous decisions in rape cases? Shouldn't all cases they...

    Misogyny hate crime law debated in Parliament

    The Nottinghamshire scheme didn't extend any additional legal protection based on misogyny as an aggravating factor - police forces obviously can't do such things off their own bat. What they did do is record the instances where people made criminal complaints and thought misogyny was a driving...

    Uncomfortable Around Female Colleagues? MeToo...

    There's also no reason to suspect that a lack of candour from the CPS should only be assumed in cases of rape - a broad review of their actions across the board is justified, don't you think? Which false stat was that? The article you quote states that the myths about the stats, and the...

    Uncomfortable Around Female Colleagues? MeToo...

    "Everybody had a laugh"? Do you never think that those who say they thought they might not be taken seriously might have a point?

    Uncomfortable Around Female Colleagues? MeToo...

    You've got a link to support that, I presume? Last I heard, under a hundred cases were to be reviewed to see if there was any indication that mitigating evidence had been ignored, not reopened on the basis that this was proven. Again, you've obviously got some evidence to support this flawed...

    Why Does Trump Have So Many Atheist, Agnostic, or Other Religion Detractors?

    I didn't mention the word covert. Where did you get that from?

    Why Does Trump Have So Many Atheist, Agnostic, or Other Religion Detractors?

    I can't see any cookies, and without that, I am doubting the existence of such things. tl;dr - send me some cookies. I'll PM you my address.

    Why Does Trump Have So Many Atheist, Agnostic, or Other Religion Detractors?

    For once, you are right - he didn't start it. How long did this "some investigation" take, before he rejected the idea? It's quite a bit longer than you are making out by using those words, isn't it?

    Why Does Trump Have So Many Atheist, Agnostic, or Other Religion Detractors?

    Five or six years? No, I mean the one released just over a couple of years into his term. I'm not sure where you get "not able to do so" from, please provide some citations for the fact he couldn't provide some form of birth documentation. No, I mean the one that the Hawaii Director of Health...

    Why Does Trump Have So Many Atheist, Agnostic, or Other Religion Detractors?

    There is no legal obligation for a Presidential candidate to release their birth certificate publicly. Obama chose to do so, without obligation. When are we expecting to see Trump's tax returns, then?

    Poll Results: Americans Admit More Discomfort With LGBT

    Poll Results: Americans Admit More Discomfort With LGBT

    Enough of this liberal nonsense! It not only makes them gay too, it makes them gay married to the gays in the eyes of Satan!
