I knew what you meant... I was just trying to make a joke based on the prevalence of organizations run by a bunch of losers

Actually, Heard did not claim in the editorial Depp sued over that Depp had assaulted her.  He just said that she had been domestically assaulted and described its impact on her.  Depp, amazingly, won the defamation suit on the basis that everyone knew that Heard was writing about him, even though she did not name him.

Or, someone can look like a fool and still be the victim of domestic violence.

It's possible.

Looking at the trial evidence as reported by the medias, it seems both had a tendency toward abuse to the other.  In the end, it was judged defamation that Depp physically mistreated Miss Heard in this trial.  In another, he lost.  

Different rules, different evidence too, I suppose?  I don't really know.

Depp strike me as human wreck, but none of his exes testified he ever was abusive toward them.  Usually, such people tend to not limit themselves to one victim.  But maybe it did happen as she said.

That's not very specific, grumbler.

I thought that my response was closer to the Confederate Month post than it was, because I didn't see that the Confederate Month post was just at the end of a page and not of a thread.

Not every candidate is perfect, you have to make decisions--not supporting Hamas is an easy one.

I have concluded that you are trolling.

That's a real possibility.

not supporting Russia would be another easy one.

Not expressing a desire to be a dictator is another.

Openly admitting that he wants to be president so he can avenge himself on his "enemies" is another.

Only two kinds of people support Trump:  morons and wannabe fascists.

If Trump wins, it will be because people prefer comforting lies ("Biden supports Hamas!") to uncomfortable truths, like the truth that Israel's current foreign (and many domestic policies) policies are a disaster for American interests and Trump will just egg them on.

My RRSPs will also be taxed when I retire. So I'm not gonna worry too much about a business owner being taxed on his million dollar business he sells when he retires.

Since i was copied i'll reply this one time. Capital gains  effects items beyond property, like stocks.

Yep, and that's why I had other paragraphs if you went on to read it that dealt with that issue

I'm back out thanks.
