Biden is likely single handedly responsible for the incarceration of more black people than any other human being that has ever walked on American soil.

You know that Mr. Dore is making shit up, right?  There is nothing in the 1994 crime bill that caused that poor man's unjust imprisonment.

Well, first...he was arrested and charged under state law.  The 1994 bill doesn't change state law.  Second, the strings attached in the bill don't set any mandatory minimums for low level drug offenses. 

This is pure empty rhetoric that Dore doesn't even try to explain.

I'm trying man, but given the people I'm talking to, I think the record here is going to be REALLY hard to break.

You have a slight point there, but you are going above and beyond. Maybe I say something questionable, maybe stupid in certain people's point of view, but I do it a couple times a day.

You are doing it 40 times a day. The mods have to read all this stuff whether they want to or not.

---

Are you trying to make me feel bad? Because what I'm hearing is that 40 times a day I'm not getting banned. If I'm gonna set ANY record, it sounds like I'm WELL on my way, because I assure you, now that I know the rules, I'm not gonna overstep them. (And I'm not going anywhere.)

The NY Times (which I seem to recall you subscribe to) says: "he (Biden) must answer for his role in legislation that criminal justice experts and his critics say helped lay the groundwork for the mass incarceration that has devastated America’s black communities."

Corey Booker even said “There are people right now in prison for life for drug offenses because you stood up and used that tough-on-crime phony rhetoric that got a lot of people elected but destroyed communities like mine.”

So I think it's unfair to call that a record for stupid.

According to Vox, "The law imposed tougher prison sentences at the federal level and encouraged states to do the same. It provided funds for states to build more prisons, aimed to fund 100,000 more cops, and backed grant programs that encouraged police officers to carry out more drug-related arrests — an escalation of the war on drugs."

So it actually:

1.  Put more police on the street to find people like Sean.
2.  Encouraged states to make more drug related arrests.

One. IMO he is setting a record for stupid. Not that his posts are  stupider than the other's stupid posts, but that 40 posts a day is stupid times 40. OK I'll be fair, 37 or 38 per day of them are stupid.

Two. I subscribe to the Wall Street Journal, not the NY Times. The WSJ's political content sucks. They seem to be letting Karl Rove write an editorial every week. I'm there strictly for the investment advice. I was always an advocate of index funds, but this is not the right time for that. How many airlines are in the S&P 500? I don't want any of them. So for the first time I' getting into sectors and individual stocks. I doubt I will pull the plug on it, but the attraction of betting on the vaccine is so seductive. Half of my brain wants to put money into about four companies, but I might not pick a winner, and maybe nobody's vaccine is going to be effective.

Also, the WSJ gives me daily info on bankruptcies and job cuts so I can tell the nitwits who think the economy will be fine in time to bail out Trump that they are out of their minds.

Now this is where I'm going to put it on the line. I think the people who were accused of having Trump Derangement Syndrome will be vindicated by history. Thinking he was the worst piece of shit we were every faced with will be seen as the rational response.

---

So instead of defending Biden, you went back to attacking Trump.
