I thought that's what will power was, the wall between a thought/feeling and an action

and if fantasizing is so close to action, isn't speech even closer....?

slippery slope,,,,,,




That being exactly the point. The difference between an honest person and a criminal is their actions, not their thoughts.

When you keep in mind that throwing someone into prison for merely thinking about something is a crime in and of itself, I ask those who have never thought of committing a crime to stand up, lest they too be jailed under the same reasoning.

Reasoning may be the wrong word.

So... verbalizing his thoughts makes him HONEST ? How about these verbalized thoughts?
He is an old, white, elite, sexist sadistic, sexually depraved individual, trying to convince people that they are also, therefore he is NORMAL. spock

Do you honestly believe, that people forget words that hurt them or insult them as group ?
If it was a racist or homophobic, or anti religious comment, instead of a sexist one, this guy would be sleeping with the fishes by now.
BTW- Do you have his address? smokin

I've never thought about committing a crime or hitting a woman. Anyone who even thinks about hitting a woman is a F'ing coward.

Unfortunately for some of your positions, I happen to live in the USA, as does Senator Bernie Sanders, where we have a little thing called 'Freedom of Speech'. It's the 1st Amendment to the Constitution.

Those of you in other countries may or may not have your own rights in that regard.

But once again, thinking about something is not the same as doing something. Saying something is not the same as doing it.

Mentioning that there are prisons for people who think something, or who say something (in the USA), is tantamount to admitting you should be yourself imprisoned for thinking that other people should be wrongfully jailed (a highly heinous crime in itself).

I am old, white, and depraved. But just because I wrote that doesn't make me a criminal. Those who would say there are prisons for people like me have thought and said crimes of their own. And they too are not criminals.

Unless they act upon it.

Free speech has limits.
Saying something isn't the same as doing it? Why don't you make a comment stating that you want to harm the President or another person? That will get you locked up faster then Bernie Sanders getting forced off stage. rofl

I think the analogy is off. HE didnt say HE wanted to do anything. He said there are people who do...and there are.

And stating there are people who wish to kill the president isnt illegal either. Because there are.

Unfortunately, MsHarmony, little details like the facts are not interesting nor absorbed by demagogues. Particularly uncomfortable facts.

Appealing to emotions and base instincts? They are good at that.

IT is not illegal to say people want to kill the president. We pay a secret service team BECAUSE of that fact.

There. I have posted it twice and I can point to any number of commentators and pundits who have also said it..

Who is "they"? If it was a Repub candidate that wrote out the lil fantasy, "they" would be the social media SJWs, rad feminists, and the mainstream media virtually butt raping him every single day until he quit.
Funny how that since it's not a Repub, things are quite different....
Progs and libtards are masters at appealing to emotions and base nstincts....unless it's to lambast one of their own.

If you are going to throw about remarks like 'Progs' and 'libtards', you should not be surprised at all when you are lumped into a group of 'them'.

After all, that's just what you did to me.

Once more, the details.

It is not illegal to say that there are people who say they would kill the president. Stating facts is not liable.

Stating that you are one, that's different.

But merely pointing out that there are people who do think so is not a crime at all.

Much though you might want it to be.

Repost and reply when you have something beyond cheap mockery and made-up accusations.

These may say more about you than about those you are commenting upon.
