    Yet Another Kennedy Assassination Conspiracy Theory Almost 60 Years too late, new book The Final Witness by Paul Landis

    Maybe he needed some book income in his old age?

    Should Killer Danielo Cavalcante have died during arrest?

    Or being released as NY has done with the Brinks Robbery killers. My point is exactly that; society does not value the life of a psychotic more than an irreplaceable inaminate object nor should it.

    Should Killer Danielo Cavalcante have died during arrest?

    What I'm saying is that theoretically we don't limit the price of life. If someone were poised with hammer over the Pieta the security officer at the museum might well shoot the vandal or nutcase dead.

    Should Killer Danielo Cavalcante have died during arrest?

    These responses all demonstrate the wisdom of the term "jumping the shark." This post definitely jumps the shark, in the sense of Jump the Shark: When Good Things Go Bad, by Jon Hein. The premise of this book is that someone "jumps the shark" when they can no longer be taken seriously. The...

    What climate action to people favor or be willing to accept?

    The problem is that we are proposing actions which are very costly, but of largely or entirely symbolic value. Feels good, accomplishes little or nothing.

    Yet Another Kennedy Assassination Conspiracy Theory Almost 60 Years too late, new book The Final Witness by Paul Landis

    In law, in general, when there is a final judgment or verdict, one has a year to uncover new evidence. One has to demonstrate why the evidence wasn't presented earlier. See FRCP Rule 60(c). Here, a few months shy of 60 years later, a new theory arises. Their are other threads but they are in...

    Should Killer Danielo Cavalcante have died during arrest?

    Does my bar admission make me check common sense at the door?

    What climate action to people favor or be willing to accept?

    And look to see if the action we can take is purely symbolic and at great cost.

    Should Killer Danielo Cavalcante have died during arrest?

    So I guess that Calvacante's life is of equal value to the money earned by the sweat of the brow of people that work? Of equal value to the lives put in danger by the escape? I would agree with you except the ones that insist on "trials" for already guilty people create so many procedural...

    You mean the IPCC can't prevent that? </sarcasm>

    What climate action to people favor or be willing to accept?

    Godwin's Law? Also, there were actual persecutions going on. All that we have is a theory that maybe, perhaps, the severity of storms is increased by "climate change" even though there are no shortages of past: Heat waves; Devastating hurricanes; Blizzards; Warm winters; Cold winters; and Hot...

    Should Killer Danielo Cavalcante have died during arrest?

    Do we have so little faith in ourselves that we value the life of illegal alien killer Danielo Cavacante over our own safety of even the public fiscal well-being? Illegal Alien Killer Danelo Cavalcante is a Hero Back in Latin America Pennsylvania Fugitive Quickly Became a ‘Cult Hero’ in Latin...

    What climate action to people favor or be willing to accept?

    Sounds more like hysteria than reason, with a dressing of respectability.

    Shana Tova 5784

    Shana Tova 5784 or Happy New Year September 15, 2023! I am trying to write a message without too much of an edge to it. A lot of the theme for this “greeting” is the sermon heard in synagogue tonight. On the positive side, my health and my family’s health continues to be good, though not...

    What climate action to people favor or be willing to accept?

    What exactly do these "glue artists" want society to do? At what cost? And to accomplish what? So if humans are an evolutionary mistake should we all do a mass "die-in" for the benefit of "all the species we share this planet with"?

    What climate action to people favor or be willing to accept?

    And your proof that #1 will accomplish anything is? In other news, it was hot at the U.S. Open during the semi-finals, Men's and Women's finals. Some people took some dramatic "action" to halt the festivities, see Stopping Tennis to Call Attention to Climate Change. The article (link in text...

    What climate action to people favor or be willing to accept?

    I get it. So the rich can keep doing what they are doing and the "peasants" get locked down. Bingo!
