[GregG's last comment in the 5dec17 Sandbox captured the bets made around the Rebane household and at a shindig we had here last night.  It seems that no one believes Sen Frankenstein will go quietly into that good night.  The most money is on his fervent hope that all this sex assault stuff will die down sufficiently in the coming weeks so that he can say 'Just kidding' about making a clean exit from the Senate.  gjr]

    I read the linked article Paul Emery used to indict Roy Moore and his ability to govern. The article cracks me up. “reds and yellows” is bad to say, but “whites” is fine? These people are really stretching credulity to make their points. Also, there are many people in America and on the earth that think men with men and the other permutations are perverse. So what? Industrialized countries populations ar headed in the wrong direction as their birth rates are not keeping up. And what do these countries endorse? Homosexual marriage. No babies there. What a way to destroy your country.
    Sure Moore has some views I don’t support but so what? You liberals support a massive amount of perversions and we genrally let you alone. But you busy bodies can’t leave us alone.

Normally, I consider that filth not news worthy and what is the point of posting the essay anyway. Long time ago.

    Going to a different topic just for a change of pace. Old news, but current dilemma. Sounds exactly like what GVPD spends most of its time on.
    “But now more addicts were declining drug court, because spending a few days in jail on a misdemeanor charge was easier than 18 months of intensive rehab. Without the threat of a felony, there was little incentive to get treatment. Drug court programs had closed in Fresno and Riverside. Enrollments had dipped by more than a quarter in many places across the state. Rabenberg had been offered drug court three times and always declined, choosing instead to plead guilty to a misdemeanor. California had promised to use some of the savings generated by Prop 47 for drug treatment. But that money wouldn’t be available until 2016, which to Goldsmith seemed like a long time to wait.”
    “There was also the known gang member near Palm Springs who had been caught with a stolen gun valued at $625 and then reacted incredulously when the arresting officer explained that he would not be taken to jail but instead written a citation. “But I had a gun. What is wrong with this country?” the offender said, according to the police report.
    http://www.washingtonpost.com/sf/national/2015/10/10/prop47/?utm_term=.3b94f4bb63ad
    A more current, yet still dated link:
    A major reason for the stunning increase in violent crime is the reckless way Prop 47 downgraded some offenses, including theft of a firearm, which used to be a felony but which is now treated as a misdemeanor, along with several other serious property theft offenses. The overall effect of downgrading so many offenses, along with the increasingly hostile attitude among many communities toward police officers (the “Ferguson Effect”), has resulted in officers deciding it’s simply not worth it to go after criminals for the “minor” things — many of which lead to worse crimes.
    “Without any real consequences, criminals were given a green light to steal more weapons and therefore commit more crimes,” contends FOX 11 Los Angeles’ VP Bob Cook in a recent op-ed. “With so many crimes downgraded from to misdemeanors, police officers in many instances felt it was not worth it to make arrests for these offenses. This has become especially true at a time when police conduct has come under increased scrutiny at every turn. Officers don’t want to be the next media case over a misdemeanor.”
    http://www.dailywire.com/news/19141/california-just-proved-once-again-going-easy-james-barrett
    My question: Should a parent award bad behavior? Should our courts, judges, LE reward bad behavior? How does Prop 47 align with our gun control advocates?
    “But along with the successes have come other consequences, which police departments and prosecutors refer to as the “unintended effects”: Robberies up 23 percent in San Francisco. Property theft up 11 percent in Los Angeles. Certain categories of crime rising 20 percent in Lake Tahoe, 36 percent in La Mirada, 22 percent in Chico and 68percent in Desert Hot Springs.” —-

    Another topic, interesting idea. Spread the Swamp.
    “There are other reasons the movement has regained steam of late. While only 15% of the federal workforce is in Washington, it is where most of the top decision makers live and work. David Fontana, a professor at George Washington University Law School who is writing a book about decentralizing the federal government, says their bubble is growing evermore insulated from reality.
    “When you have this concentration of important people all in a single place, they form their own tight networks immune to other influences,” he said. Decentralizing that power away from the capital has long been a trend in other countries, Fontana said. “This is not a crazy idea.”

Breitbart presented the formal definition of forgery, which you ignored.

    Yep, that’s how it works. The handwriting analysis person said weeks ago the yearbook writings was from the same person, published on the fakenews sites. Then, out of the blue, someone remembers the story, and the haters now run around claiming it was just notes in the margin, nothing to see here. So, was the handwriting expert now suddenly wrong to fit the narrative? Some of us put things in the memory bank and let it ride until the story changes.
    Remember how incredulous the Popinjay and others (including Brad C) were about Trump’s irresponsible tweet in March that he had been wiretapped. Trump is unhinged! Lasted for days straight. Then they slammed the “alt-right far right wacko” Mark Levine, a Ted Cruz supporter. Even Brad told me to not believe Levin, the Alex Jones of Constitutional Conservatism..
    All the evil lying hard core “far right extremist” Levin did was piece together stories from LEGITIMATE mainstream sources in chronological order with little commentary or opinion. He laid it out for all to see what the NY Slime, Washington Compost, McClatchy, and the rest of them reported by their own journalists concerning spying on the Trump campaign, little more, nothing less.
    The cacophony of outrage against Trump (and Levine) erupted and ensued over Trump’s wiretapping conspiracy tweet reached the high heavens. How easily they forget their own words.
    https://www.cnsnews.com/commentary/craig-bannister/levin-proved-obama-spied-trump-six-months-cnn-reported-it
    This is how they treated Mr. Levine, a former Justice Department lawyer and spokesman. Shoot the messenger and banish him as the fraud he is. How dare he attack Obama without proof!!!! Don’t believe a word he says. Don’t even read that garbage! Lol
    http://www.breitbart.com/big-journalism/2017/09/18/wiretapped-cnn-admits-trump-campaign-breitbart-news-right-mainstream-media-wrong/
    Shoot the messenger. Nay, kill the messenger.
    So Walt, if Punchy @ 9:08 says of you, my friend, “You should read yor own links before making a fool of yourself.”….oh, just consider the source before paying any mind to looking like a fool. Just saying. Hey, how about this gem:
    “While I appreciate your passion Bill, there is no way Trump will win. No way, Jose.”
    Then the revisionist history, months later.
    “The final polls were 3 points for Clinton, within the margin of error.”
    So, who repeatedly and continually looks like a fool up to this very hour? No you, Walt. Can’t even say “pot calling kettle black.” It’s too one sided to do tha phrase justice. So, the question that begs an answer from the one with TURDS is “How do you shoot the messenger when you are the messenger.”
