    Limited government, free market, the Republican economic policies, for the most part, individual freedom, pragmatism, among others.

    But I also feel that Trump does not represent a lot of traditional conservative values, and the party has moved further and further to the right, making me seem more centrist. There are a lot of social issues I lean slightly left on. For instance IDGAF who someone wants to marry. Doesn't affect me in the slightest. I'm fine if people want to have abortions within their first trimester. I don't believe in raising minimum wage, I'd much rather see a UBI. I don't believe in open borders, rather I think we need to provide realistic, but tough pathways for people to become legal, and even at that, penalize them for taking the wrong pathway (like escalating their tax bracket or something). I think if you are convicted of a crime as an illegal immigrant, it should carry an automatic x2 multiplier on your sentence, and then you are deported. If you come back and commit any crime, it's life in prison. At the same time, I think we need to work towards a universal healthcare solution. I don't support free school tuition, etc. I'm not a huge DEI person at all, but I think we need to acknowledge that things like red lining were real and their effects are still being felt. We also need to acknowledge the governments role in creating the inner city ghettos, etc.


    Any other questions...?

    Gun to my head that's what I'd guess but, again, I don't know all of what was said/done in the lead up to that.

    Either way, even if it was a stone cold lock felony evading arrest it doesn't justify Ross' actions so I kinda don't give a ****?

    Not to mention the whites appointed by Trump are less qualified than any supposed DEI hire of heard of outside of Clarence Thomas

    It's amazing how many people say they have watched all the videos and think otherwise. My mother in law swears she watched all the videos and that he was hit in the hip. O told her there's no way, and that he put his hand on the vehicle to brace himself. She refuses to believe that. She says that if you watch his cell video you can tell her gets hit, to which I say that if I am filming with my cell phone and shift my filming hand suddenly, it's going to look chaotic no matter what. She also watches Fox News nonstop.

    The real issue is that media (and politics in general) has divided people so much that it literally has their vision clouded.

    I agree, there is no law saying the state minimum punishment for felony evasion is death. A peace officer shooting a suspect is not punishment, it's a completely separate thing.

    you really haven't said anything here. That's what typical boomer democrats say after talking about how they aren't racist because they hooked up with a black girl in a VW once. who is the last republican you voted for?

    If you want to give me a political quiz to determine my leanings, I am happy to answer your questions and then let you label me. Id actually be intrigued to find out what you come up with. I'd guess I'm somewhat all over the place.

    It doesn't change my opinions, or my life one bit whether you label me as a Democrat or Republican or a boomer or whatever (I'm 38, but do have "Get off my lawn" tendencies, I guess).

    That grainy ass sped up video is a perfect propaganda cocktail.

    It allows people to see what they want to see.

    Blurry dark pixels moving into other blurry dark pixels on a two dimensional plane.

    The fact you have president shitforbrains tweeting that crap out with color commentary is just icing.

    My grandkids are going to fight in a civil war caused by an AI video of president Jake Paul giving a hummer to Senate minority leader ishowspeed.

    It was not clear to me.

    There should be a court trial where whatever evidence there is can be evaluated by a judge and jury. That is how this should go forward. I guessing that Trump's DoJ will not bring this to trial and will actively prevent the state from also going to trial. This is behavior one would expect from a guilty party.

    BTW a 3000 lb car hitting a 200 lb man should do noticeable damage to the man (and some limited damage to the car). We do know that the man appeared unharmed after the incident, which leads me to believe if there was contact between the car and the man, the contact was inconsequential.

    Locally, most of them, which is ultimately why I switched from an independent to a Republican.

    For President, I've probably never voted Republican. I voted for Obama. Young and moved by his charisma and ability to unite people. That was enough for me as an early 20 something. Since Obama, I've voted independent. I refuse to vote for Trump, as I am also voting for the person. But I didn't support Hillary or Biden, and would not give vote to them.

    Judge me if you want..as I said, I don't need to win a popularity contest... Would have voted for W, but was too young.

    What the hell are you talking about. He was not hit by the vehicle at all. Jesus man quit talking out of your ass youre embarrassing yourself. You're allowing your bias to creep in from you being a prosecutor and its utterly embarrassing.

    Regardless of what you think of the shooting refusing a doctor on the scene to render aid and then blocking ambulances from entering the scene is against the law.

    Are we watching the same video, the car is making contact with the left side of his torso (three seconds into the video), you can see his right arm at full extension in front of him and he is shooting through the windshield (confirmed by the bullet hole in the windshield).
    Except when the car starts moving, he makes and exclamation, and is suddenly violently displaced.
    Her wife yelling drive baby drive appeared to start her going.
    Not far enough away, since she hit him.
    Yeah, she just hit him with her car.

    He was not violently displaced. What are you watching? Her intent is to avoid the ICE fool. She turned away from him. The ICE agent walked away with no injury.

    I dont know how badly the officer was hurt, he went to the hospital. I saw pics of damage to the car bumper.

    It's only not clear if you dont want to see.

    You will never be able to convince a lib differently.

    They wont admit what they can see with their own 2 eyes.

    So you're a globalist RINO?

    BTW, universal healthcare gives govt complete control over your health and ultimately your life. This has been a dream of the Gates the world is overpopulated crowd for decades. OK Bill you 1st.
