This is how civil war starts. If the judiciary starts issuing arrest warrants over this unlawful kidnapping, they may need to deputize officers that are not under the control of the trump admin which could pit our armed forces against each other. Best case scenario is the judiciary finds the arrest unlawful and the FBI backs down because they're being threatened with contempt.

Sic semper tyrannis is a Latin phrase meaning "thus always to tyrants". In contemporary parlance, it means tyrannical leaders will inevitably be overthrown. The phrase also suggests that bad but justified outcomes should, or eventually will, befall tyrants.

Yeah, pretty much

"It’s heartbreaking because they care more about the money because they haven’t one time called or reached out to say, 'How’s your kids doing?' But yet they’re out there fighting to get their money back," he said. "I wish they’d put that much care into the victims."

Yep. This is the so called church in a nutshell. They are a corporation masquerading as a religious institution and the membership is ever so slowly starting to realize that.

During my "libertarian" phase I was trying to get into him. I figured out pretty quickly that he isn't well researched and his only response to anything he disagreed with is condescension and pessimistic sarcasm.

Low cost of goods is what keeps the peasants in line. It's kind of our identity at this point.

I hope to god you're being sarcastic

When you're trying to order tacos and the acid hits.

We've had protests like this in the past which failed miserably. Look up "occupy wall street". Americans don't like protesting that ends up disrupting the economic machine. We protest by disrupting the political process. It actually can work in our favor this time since trump and his cronies are the ones disrupting the economic machine. We just need other countries to keep up the pressure economically while we put political pressure on the current administration.

Some do, some don't. Most ex-mormons like myself don't end up going to another religion. We already have a community of like-minded people on the outside.
