Subject: Re: Guilty on all counts
Show me ur evidence is 100% a rhetorical shield, as is slyly hiding behind this case as proof of something.

This thread is a classic example of usage of rhetorical shields alongside the real debate between what is Legally Correct vs. Behaviorally Proper.

Let's say I'm a sheriff in Mobile, Alabama. I sit there on the road with my radar gun and I let every speeding car with a Roll Tide bumper sticker on it fly right by. But every time I see Auburn Tiger colors I pull them over and ticket and/or arrest them for reckless driving. When asked for my "Evidence" that Auburn Tigers are unsafe drivers...I can point to my arrest record as "evidence". With a poop-eating grin on my face. That's what we're looking at here with this "evidence" shield.

In this case, partisan democrats contorted the law to bring a bullshit case in a blatant attempt to interfere with the election. It's partisan lawfare, and very Behaviorally Improper no matter what concocted legal foundation they come up with. Much like our Alabama deputy, the goal here is to point to "Evidence" that Republicans are this and that knowing the foundation was sketchy. But hey. A trial was concluded that generated "Evidence". Evidence of what crime no one can say, but hey, we have "Evidence" that Trump is a felon, so he is.

You folks refuse to grant that 1mm of space I mentioned upthread for a very simple reason...because doing so would crack the foundation of this entire thing. You won't like it when it starts happening to democrats.

Trump could have thrown together a legal case that was Legally Correct and tossed Hillary! in prison. But he didn't. Why? Because it wouldn't have been Behaviorally Proper to vindictively fry his political opponent.

Should Trump win in November, we're going to see every liberal on this board flip from Legally Correct to Behaviorally Proper and try to have it both ways. How do I know that? Because all of them will RAIL about how horrible it is that We're Swearing In A Felon As President And This Shall Be Resisted or some such. You all know you will.

Hear that, Mr. Anderson? It's the sound of...inevitability.
