The Pope's visit to Cuba
So the Pope reckons that "Marxism no longer corresponds to reality".

He claims to be the earthly representative of an all-powerful invisble sky wizard. What the fuck does he know about reality?

What a country
NBPP member who put the non-violent bounty (which isn't reported in the media) on the murderer Zimmerman's head was arrested. But Zimmerman walks free.

YAY! The fucking Black Panther outlaw has been arrested ! Justice DOES prevail! Thanks for bringing this to our attention. It restores faith in the system.

In the meantime, the Police/Prosecutors are continuing their investigation into the murder of the drug addict Trayvon, who attacked Zimmerman while scoping out houses to rob and got himself shot after he knocked down Zimmerman and started smashing his head against the ground...which is shy Zimmerman was bloody and grass-stained when he was questioned by police.

Good reporting, Putin...Maybe there is hope for you yet!

Zimmerman won't be free long. Do you honestly think the local prosecutor won't charge him once the investigation has made that possible, if only to advance his own career? From what I've seen the case is hardly a slam-dunk either way, so there's every possibility he could be convicted.

As for non-violent, they wanted the guy kidnapped! Just imagine a system where it was legal for any group to but a "nonviolent bounty" on anybody they wanted. I'm sure you howl, and justifiably so, if Focus on the Family put a bounty on the capture of some liberal who they deemed guilty of a crime. And don't give me any nonsense about a citizen's arrest, since you basically have to catch someone red-handed to do that.

I'm actually shocked Putin33 would support the New Black Panther Party. Unlike the real one from the 60s and 70s this is just a front for the craziest people from the Nation of Islam, a crazy UFO-cult run by the rabidly anti-Semitic Louis Farrakhan. If any alleged amount of antisemitism is enough to make the Prague Spring and Hungarian Uprising illegitimate how can you make common cause with these people?

Yes, what a country indeed.

A person who clearly broke the law has been arrested, while the one who may or may not have broken the law currently walks free while the investigation is ongoing.

I guess Putin isn't a big fan of the concept of Innocent until Proven Guilty.

Putin, the flaws in your logic and thought process are astounding. They may only be rivaled by your hypocrisy. Once again, let's throw you and TC in a steel cage death match!
I hope everyone else can see that your statement doesn't logically follow at all. I'll try to spell it out in the hopes you do, knowing full well this is probably a wasted exercise.

(1) Alderian argued for the application of the convention of innocence until guilt is proven - a convention universally applied (at least in theory) in a court of law. This in no way reflects on whether he actually thinks Zimmerman is innocent.
(2) Short of Alderian saying "I'm <race>," you have no way of knowing his race. And even if he said that, it's an anonymous Internet forum, he could be lying and you would have no way of knowing.
(3) Even if you knew Alderian's race, you would not know his attitude toward the application of presumed innocence along racial lines.

Literally everything you posted is projection. It's why people like me like to mock you with it. You project all kinds of motives on essentially no evidence almost without fail in every thread you argue. I know I can't be the only person tired of it.
"Keep defending these neanderthals, Ron Paulies, your "anti-government" credentials become more of a joke by the minute."

Where is anything I said defense of anything? I asked you whether the state should have a monopoly on the use of violence or not. This is a crucial question because (a) kidnappings are violent by definition; (b) you are coming out in support of a kidnapping bounty placed by a non-state actor; and (c) you defend Stalinist Communism, an ideology which centers on the state's monopoly on violence.

Your position betrays an important philosophical contradiction I'd like for you to address. None of that reflects on my thoughts on the situation.
krellin - arrests are kidnappings
(I mean. Obviously by definition the crime of "kidnapping" cannot be committed by a state agent. However, the act of seizing someone against their will to be confined in a place of the abductor's choosing is committed by state agents in an arrest. The only difference is whether the act is perceived to be legitimate, which revolves on whether the state has a monopoly on the justified use of force or not.)
Putin33 (111 D)
28 Mar 12 UTC
It's not like Alderian is an unknown entity on these forums. Stop pretending like this guy, the same guy who thinks police should beat the shit out of Occupy Wall Street protesters, believes in the fucking "law". This is a vigilante murderer who isn't even being charged with a crime. There is no judicial process here. So stop preaching this nonsense about innocent until proven guilty. Nobody is proving anything. He got away with murder without so much as spending a single minute detained.

Keep spouting your holy faith in the law, you minarchists. What a bunch of frauds.
Invictus (240 D)
28 Mar 12 UTC
"Arrests are "kidnapping" too, you dolts."

Wrong.


"The NBPP isn't run by Louis Farrakhan"

I didn't say it was run by Farrakhan. I said it was a front for the craziest people in the Nation of Islam, which it is. These people talk about how great it would be to kill white babies. Is there no vaguely left-wing group you won't cravenly support?

You're a parody of yourself, Putin33.

You gentlemen know damn well what is meant by non-violent bounty. The NBPP did not call for the murderer to be harmed, only detained. The non-violent aspect isn't being reported by the media, who continues to portray it as if he NBPP called for his death. But anyway why am I bothering with you people? You think mass starvation via capitalism is "non-violent" and being fired for no reason isn't force.

"This is a vigilante murderer who isn't even being charged with a crime. There is no judicial process here. So stop preaching this nonsense about innocent until proven guilty. Nobody is proving anything. He got away with murder without so much as spending a single minute detained."

Again, I can't believe you don't think he'll be charged. The prosecutor WANTS to charge him with manslaughter, but so far there hasn't been enough evidence. So they're investigating. I bet they'll find enough. I'm open to the idea that it was a mistake to not arrest him, but if there isn't enough to charge him then they couldn't have kept him very long anyway. Just let this play out. Zimmerman very well did not meet the criteria for self-defense and if so he'll go to prison.
