    Lol health!
    Sure there could have been thousands of reasons. don’t forget 3 justices voted to hear it. I knew a majority wouldnt’ but I could have been wrong (in whcih case we can quibble If I lied, or was mistaken)
    But I was right, the case was not heard

    you provide an excellent defintion of heard/hearing:
    ““Any proceeding before a Judge or other magistrate, w/o a jury in which evidence and/or argument is presented to determine some issue of fact or both issues of fact and law. Etc.””

    YES! nailed it “….in which evidence and/or argument is presented …” EXACTLY right. A confrence in which the judges discuss among themselves whether to accept the case (whcih is what happened Feb 22), with no evidence or arguments presented. Is NOT a hearing.
    It was originally scheduled for Feb 19. Have a look at SCOTUS’s calendar 2/19 was NOT an argument day (argument days marked in red) it was a conference day (marked in green) There were NO arguments there was no evidence presented.
    According to the Defitnion YOU provided it was not a hearing.
    Hopefullly Health, if you have the tiem to read the correct defitnion of hearing provided by Health, you will see it says exactly what I have been saying. and not as Health has been wrngly claiming that the case was heard.

    And again, to belabor the point, you said I was a liar for saying it would be dismissed as moot, so even if a hearing took place (and none did see the defitnion provided by Health) you should still apologize for calling me a liar, when I so clearly told the truth

    I think this is my favorite conversation with you yet.

    Health

    “This is what I called you a Liar on:”

    that was once

    here is another “but what I know is that you are a Compulsive Liar!”
    This was on Jan 18. Earlier that day at 6:35 PM I explained to you that the case would be dismissed as moot, I cited chapter and verse, why The Court doesnt rule on moot cases.
    You did not say “Oh but it still will be heard” , that redefitnion of “heard” only came later.
    Instead you said I lied when I said the case would be dismissed. you cited Goyish prohpets to back up your claim .

    On Jan 19 I explained again “On Jan 20 (tomorrow) it will certainly be irrelevant (arguably it was irrelevant on Jan 6 or even Dec 14 (this is one argument made by the City of Detroit and the Governor in their briefs )
    This is why they were hoping for an expedition, it was denied.
    The case will not be heard.”

    To which you replied “I think this is another one of your Manipulating Lies!” AFTER I explained it will be dismissed as moot

    A few days later you came up with the nonsensical idea that this is still called “judgment”

    “We have a difference of Opinion what “Heard” means with regards to Court Cases.”
    no I told you what heard meant, and you made up your own defintion not found in any dictionary.

    “In a lot of trials, it never goes to the point of e/o physically being there, but instead they Judge up on the case w/o that!”

    ummm, yeah. Exactly as Ive been telling you for months.

    “But even though you’re a Know It All”
    I’m not a know it all.

    I was dead wrong, I thought when faced with black and White evidence. I said the case would be dismissed as moot, you said Iwas lying, It was dimsissed, you say “sorry you were right”

    Never did I dream you’d redefine “heard” “judgment” and “case” all in an effort to do what ?
    Avoiding saying “sorry for calling you a liar”?

    I was wrong. plain and simple

    Health

    Thanks for a new point!
    Sadly, it is still wrong.

    You said:
    “Your statements, especially before the Judgment, that it will be dismissed as Moot, is Only because of your Extreme Gaiva!!!”

    Again that could be (as I said earlier) , But Gaivah and Liar are not synonymous nor interchangeable.

    a lie is something that is untrue
    a baal Gaivah or one who is arrogant is one who has exaggerated sense of one’s own importance or abilities
    They are not interchangeable

    Here is an example to help:
    If I say “I am certain it will snow tomorrow! I am 100% sure it will snow!”
    If it snows tomorrow, then I didn’t lie. I may have been a baal gaivah for being so sure. But if I was right and it snowed then I told the truth,

    (As to whether in fact I was a baal gaivah I would like to quote my dear friend Health who said “I and a lot of people realized that they were delaying the case so they wouldn’t have to get involved.”
    Lots of people knew the court was delaying to avoid getting involved in other words to avoid judging the case (of course they HAD to get involved they had to accept the petition but can choose not to hear it nor pass judgment rather to just dismiss it.
    But lots of people knew this. I have no special abilities, I’m surprised you didnt know it, I was telling you over and over. Perhaps you should have listened to Health who says he knew it too, instead of arguing for 2 months about a case that Health says he knew the court was “delaying the case so they wouldn’t have to get involved.”
    To be clear I definitely have some Gaivah, but in this case you overestimate my gaivah. my knowledge didn’t come from any special ability. It is something ” a lot of people realized” even Health claims he realized it Sadly, you didnt and called me a liar when I said it)

    Joseph

    ‘ is it the right of the government to deny entry where both parties (owner and patron) agree on permitting it?”

    Yes. there is no “right of gym ownership” The government can not allow you to operate gym
    We can think of many example where both parties agree on doing something yet the Government can prevent them. Certainly if said activities are deemed to pose a risk to public health

    (That said I don’t think I agree with such a policy IF all involved are aware of the risks the gym should be allowed to operate , but as to whether the Government has the right to shut them down. certainly)

    ” …to go to a gym and so on.”

    I don’t really understand the problem. There is no “right to go to gym” Not I Israel nor America. If Gymgoers (or the government” doesn’t want non-vaccinated people in the gym why isn’t that their right?

    Or as DY said “if you’re worried about losing you freedom, take the vaccine.”
    You have the right to refuse the vaccine. Why doesn’t a gym (or the government) have the right to refuse entrance to non-vaccinated?
    why do only you get rights and not the rest of us?

    I reread your past few posts
    and you are getting more desperate making up more things and repeating the same nonsense over and over .

    I’ll keep it simple:
    Let me know where you lose me

    1. I said the case would be dismissed as moot.
    2. You said I was a liar
    3. The case was dismissed for being moot
    4. Ergo I did not lie , and you should apologize

    If you have any lingering questions or any points that still confuse you that you need clarification on I am of course happy to take the time to explain it to you. (free of charge!)

    If you have no questions but just want to repeat your same nonsense “judgment of moot” that you learnt in secret supreme court, that is fine too. all of which has already been replied to (over and over)

    If you have nothing new to add. See you back here when (if) Powell admits she lied (or judge rules she did) I’m super excited to hear what new “logic” you come up with to STILL back her up once she herself admits she lied.

    all the best!

    Again
    Even if the wrong things your saying are true. It STILL doesn’t change anything. (And make no mistake you have it completely wrong)

    Its quite simple really:
    I said the case would be dismissed as moot.
    You said I was a liar
    Even if the gave a “judgment of moot” I was still right

    “The reason I think was to Show Off to e/o.”

    That’s true but only partly. As I’ve mentioned in the past my favorite discussions are ones where one is clearly wrong but can’t admit it.
    You accused me of lying. What I said would happen is EXACTLY what happened. I find it fascinating that you can’t just say sorry for calling you a liar

    “Because that implies that they don’t even read it, but SCOTUS reads their cases & they give decisions (Judgments)!”

    No you made that inference. I explicitly said the case wouldbe dismissed as moot. If you didn’t know what that m ant or entailed, that is in you.

    “You have an obsession on what’s called hearing on a case.”

    I have an obsession with facts.

    “It’s like they won’t even look at any evidence.”

    Whether they do or don’t is completely irrelevant.

    “They look at evidence and they hear/read cases before them!”

    First they have to agree to hear the case. This is called granting certiorari. It was not granted in this case. The court refused to hear it.

    “Like I said before -“If you would have posted – it’s likely that they wouldn’t have a Full Blown Case, like Perry Mason, I wouldn’t have replied to that Post”!”
    Ah, but that’s not what I said, because it would’ve been nonsense. What I said was they would refuse to hear the case, and would dismiss it as moot. You called me a liar. Yet this is EXACTLY what happened

    Lol I would never ask such a silly question. What do you mean ”
    could Not have possibly known whether the SCOTUS would dismiss it or Not!”
    I did know! I was right on target.

    Health you just redefine words to avoid apologizeing. Its impressive actually.. first “heard”, then “court case”, “judgment “and now ” liar.”

    I love it.

    I think we are done here.

    Your posts are getting more repetitive than usual
    Just so I have it right:
    In your view if a person predicts (guesses) what will happen, and was right. He is a liar.

    Look You know I love our conversations, and am happy to keep on going.
    I have a longer reply pending

    but to keep it short

    Here are your words verbatim :
    “This is what I wrote:
    “Btw, the case is Still pending, but you know that the SCOTUS will give a Judgement of “Moot”.
    How do you know that?””
    So this is called Lying.”

    Yes that is what you wrote.
    Except I wasn’t lying I was exactly right.

    The normal response is for you to say “wow you were right, I’m sorry I accused you of lying”

    and I’d say “no problem Health! We can still be friends, thanks for your kind words wishing you a lifetime of Health and hapiness”

    Sydney Powell ad I aren’t friends

    “Yes, this is called a case, even though you call it “No case””

    Lol You calld it No case these are your words.: “I’ll tell what it means – they read the case and decided not to take it.”

    “This is what I wrote:…. So this is called Lying.”

    ah but I was right, a simple apology is in order

    “In this case, they decided that they wouldn’t hear it”

    Yep like Ive’ been telling you for months

    “For you to constantly post -“that they wouldn’t hear it”, is because of your Haughtiness, that you think You are a Know It All!”

    you can say it was because whatever you want. Haughtiness, shoteh, genius, navi. Bottom line s I was right.

    “If you would have posted – it’s likely that they wouldn’t have a Full Blown Case, like Perry Mason, I wouldn’t have replied to that Post!”
    Lol I never would have said that. You made up this distiction between “full blown case ” and not. There is no such thing in real supreme court . The court either hears a case or doesn’t

    I replied, but IT may not have gotten past YWN censors (not that I blame them the comments should be censored thats how offensive they are)

    “Yet despite multiple requests you cannot produce even a single direct source.”

    I already supplied a source. He called Sandra Fluke a “feminazi” it was not over abortion, as you wrongly claimed.
    He called her and said about her far far worse. He said things all would consider ” offensive ” by any meaningful definition of the term (most republicans criticized him at the time and yes of course he “apologized” )

    If you don’ t think they are offensive comments, then we have different definitions of the word, and simply speak different languages.

    As I said earlier, I have no interest in supplying lists of offensive things for you to say, it was a joke, it was along time ago, he/she/they deserved it. Yes Iv’e heard all that before. I’m not interested in hearing it again

    You wanted an example I supplied it. That is all

    Look if you say : “what do you want he spoke for 3 hours daily he was passionate he was funny (and he was), sure he occasionally said offensive things, The good outweighed the bad.”
    I disagree, but that is a judgment call and people can disagree.
    To say he never said anything offensive, and if he did it was always ok becasue “Sarcasm” is preposterous.
    There are plenty of lists of offensive things I mentioned a few, there are others if you care for truth.

    If you have a specific question on the topic I am of course happy to answer. Otherwise all the best

    “Did you ever listen to him explain the development of the term Feminazi? Who it is referring to and what it means?”

    Yes, more than once (he is quite repetitive, though I don’t blame him give his task)

    ujm
    ” about people haven’t regularly listened to him ”
    wrong.

    “You write that he referred to Chelsea Clinton as the White House dog. ”

    more than once

    “Okay, that seems like an offensive comment.”

    you are welcome.

    ” And you write that he apologized for it.”

    I wrote “apologized” ( he blamed it on a producer error, what a sloppy producer he must have had to make the same mistake 3 times)

    Having an original show for 15 hours every week for over 30 years there’s bound to be some offensive commentary. Have you never made offensive comments?”

    lol, I told you I knew you’d have excuses

    I asked you so nicely to spare me.

    No I have never insulted a kid on national radio. 3 times.

    “Additionally, referring to the president’s daughter as the White House dog is hardly the biggest aveira out there.”

    lol! I’m surprised it isn’t a mitzva
    see we speak different languages .
    Again,I know yo have canned excuses for your guy

    ” do you even know how or in what sense he used that? ”
    yes

    “Clearly not. Because you openly claimed he meant something he never did (and reapeatedly pointed out as such when the MSM claimed he meant exactly what you claimed, even though he never used it as such.) ”

    I said no such thing

    “Those who he applied the term feminazis, and the ONLY group he ever applied it to, were those advocating for laws permitting abortion-on-demand”

    This is factually incorrect.

    But again, I know you have excuses for everything he says. you ove him and can’t see fault, I get that. Really I do.

    “. He didn’t even apply that term to general supporters of abortion.”

    You arent telling the truth. Ive heard him refer to people demanding equal wage “feminazis” as well as Sandra fluke who thought health insurance should include Birth control. I know I know the Nazis supported equal wages too.

    Look, I’m not getting sucked into this silliness with you.

    anything he ever said, you will claim, well he speaks so long what do you expect, or its not that offensive (or both lol). You can also lie about who he called what (which his strange If you’ve listened to him regularly I’m not even sure where this bizarre limitation of his term came from, did you even listen to him? )

    Again I get that you can do that. No need to prove me right

    “expressing a point humorusly” is not a license to be a bigot.
    Take the SNL example, the whole show is “expressing points humorously” people are still all bent out of shape over a “joke” they deemed offensive.

    There are plenty of Offensive things rush has said availabel online.
    I’m not so interested in having you explain why each was “just a joke”

    to avoid you saying I couldnt come up wit hany I’ll provide 2 examples.

    One which Rush later admitted was offensive and “apologized” (though he did it 3 times). The other is less offensive but highlights the double standard among his supporters

    1)in 1993 when Clinton was in the Whitehouse he held up a picture and introduced the world to “socks the white house cat” He then said “and here is the white house dog” with a picture of then 12 year old Chelsea Clinton.

    I know Know , it was “sarcastic” and was trying to make a point.

    He did variations of this “joke” 3 times

    2) He often used the term “feminazi” (I once heard him clai to have coined it) I’m old enough to remember how ben out of shape people got when AOC called the camps on the southern border “concentration camps” How dare she minimize the holocaust. Yet rush described those who want equal rights for women as “nazis” (almost) daily and all is fine. Because hey He is being “humorous”

    “is in case a clown like you took a Federal case all the way up to SCOTUS.
    They wouldn’t waste their time to even read it!”

    ding ding ding!
    nailed it!
    Yes!
    when there are clowns invloved the case is certain to get tossed!*

    “How many times do I have to tell you that they read it and made decisions on it, ie. Judgment?!?”
    hopefully no more times, since it is wrong, as you finally acknowledged “they read the case and decided not to take it.”
    Ie they decide NOT to take the Court case, if they decide not to take the case, then there is no case.

    and again, even if there was a case, still doesn’t change the fact that when I told you Jan 18th the case would be dismissed as moot, and I was lying, I wasnt lying.

    “Before you comment on things that you Know Nothing about – How about researching the the Topic?!?”

    Lol!
    I was right on every prediction I made on this thread, you have been mystified has to how I know all these things asking “but how do you know that”

    * BTW this is the answer to your question posed Feb 8 (before the Court denied certiorari, ie. declined to hear the case)
    I had said “…they will dismiss it without judgment (probably for being moot)”
    You asked “And again – how do you know that? “Are you either a Shoita, Koton or Deaf?”

    You would have known it to, if you just put down your blinders , as you correctly note a case brought by a clown wouldn’t stand a chance of being heard, or even read.

    “Yes, they read almost every case & then they make decisions.”

    Lol at “almost” So maybe this is one of the cases they didn’t read?
    (and again, ‘m not saying they didn’t read it, I read it it didn’t take that long,I’m sure they did too)

    “Sometimes they’ll take the case, sometimes they won’t.”
    correct. I’m glad to have explained this to you.
    On Dec 20th you didn’t know that, you said the opposite: “Then that will be the first time in history – that SCOTUS accepted a petition, but didn’t have a Court case afterwards!”

    Then you were under the mistaken impression that once a petition is accepted they always have a “court case” Now you correctly note “Sometimes they’ll take the case, sometimes they won’t”

    You are most welcome!

    “When they don’t want to take it – they have different ways to get rid of it.
    One of the ways is to get rid of it – is by dismissed it because it was moot!”

    correct! As I have been telling you for months. They don’t always take court cases (as you now agree) Though in the past you called me a liar when I said this.

    The court chooses which cases to hear. I told you (over and over) that they would not hear Powell’s case. You called me a liar .

    “SCOTUS doesn’t work the way you think”

    It works exactly As Ive been telling you for months

    .
    “I found out how it works – when I did my case.”

    Was your case this week? Because a few weeks ago you didn’t know how it worked. I think this may be the source of your confusion you are confusing secret supreme court with regular supreme court. I don’t know anything about secret supreme court.

    In regular suprme court they don’t always hear the case as you correctly note now, and not like you said Dec 20.
    no thanks are necessary for my having explained this to you It is my pleasure .

    no

    “They might tell e/o that it is dismissed as being Moot, but what does that mean?”

    Already explained it to you January 18th. after which you insisted that I was wrong, the case would still be “heard” and that I was a liar

    “I’ll tell what it means – they read the case and decided not to take it.”
    Maybe, maybe not .
    Regardless Doesn’t change the fact that I correctly said this would happen months ago, and AFTER I told you this you said I was a liar

    “In other words, it’s really a Judgment.”
    Thats not how words work. words have definitions, not all words are interchangeable

    “Stop confusing yourself that it’s not Really a Judgment.”
    not confused. Even if Thomas is wrong when he wrote the court declined to review the case.

    It still doesnt chaneg the fact that when I told you January 18th that the case would be dismissed as moot, I was not lying.

    The comparison between Rush and che is an apt one.
    bot are entertainers first and foremost (though rush was far more entertaining than che) People who go to either of them for news or rational intellectual takes on any subject are looking in the wrong place.

    That people take anything either of them says/said seriously is puzzling .

    Its like being offended by Howard Stern. Um, yes that is the point, if you don’t like it shut it off.

    “And I’m sure they read the Motions.”

    They may have, (though impossible to tell from the order and dissents)

    The court denied certiorari. Certiorari is the process when a higher court reviews the lower court’s decision. SCOTUS denied it, meaning they aren’t reviewing the case.

    They aren’t saying anything as to whether there was fraud, or whether Pensylvanis’ court had right to change deadline. They simply arent ruling on it.

    As spelled out in Thomas’s dissent “The motions of Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. for
    leave to intervene as petitioner are dismissed as moot” (note not “judged as moot”) later in the dicisio he describes the court as “doing nothing ”
    similarly Gorsuch and Alito in their dissent, agree with Tomas that ” we should grant review in these cases.” Becasue the court DID NOT reviwe it. The petiton for the court to review the case was denied,. The case WAS NOT heard. and again “These cases call out for review, and I respectfully dissent from the Court’s decision to deny certiorari. ”

    “Ben Hechts book is based on”

    yes ” based on.” There have been many reviews of it written over the decades. I did not say it was all unture.
    The bulk of it is true.

    what I pointed out was that Ben Hecht was a Zionist. By any definition of the word.

    Nu nu so mazel Tov they were Zinoists. Thats a good thing!

    Not sure what your point is.

    If you enjoy redefining “Zionism” from its commonly understood definition to include “he Gri”z- and the Chofetz chayim and R’ elchana wasserman”
    That’s’ fine. Though I’m not sure what it has to do with anything .

    “only led to violence against the Altanela”
    It wasnt “only the altalena” (assassination of de Haan, The Saison when Hagannah worked with the British agaisnt tHe Irgun, and when Begin famously ordered his followers not to fight back) Still not sure what your point is.

    Yes it is based on records, but is not all true (most is)

    “The differences only led to violence against the Altanela, menachem Begin was very insistent that his followers do not descend into violence/lies etc”

    there was other violence as wel. But at any rate, Menachem Begin was a Zionist too. His views on zinoism were closer to Ben Gurion’s than to lehavdil, Rav Elchonon z”l’s

    ditto for Ben Hecht. He too was a zionist.

    IF you want to redefine zinosim to include “The Gri”z- and the Chofetz chayim and R’ elchana wasserman etc” That’s fine with me.

    But by ANY definition of Zionism you use Ben Hecht was one.

    “but he saw the zionist leaders for what they were.”

    not quite right. He was a revisionist Zionist a follower of Jabotinsky and Begin. He believed (strongly) there should be a Jewish State. Naturally as a follower of revisionist Zinosim he was opposed to the Labor Zionist Leaders , who while they all agreed s to the need for a Jewish political state, they had different ideas as to how the state should look. Occasioanlty the disagreements led to lies/exagerations about the other group (as in parts of Ben Hecht’s book) other times these disagreements led to violence (Altalena for example) .
    But they were all Zionists

    “was maskim to the Gri”z. does that make them zionists?”

    did the Griz believe we should establish a State for Jews? If so then yes he was a Zionist. If not, then he wasn’t.

    “Unfortunately seems we are barely arguing anymore”

    Thats great!

    I would phrase the summary slightly differently, we disagree if there theoretically is such a law.
    We agree that practically speaking there isn’t .as you said “We both agree the defendant would lose.”

    “So what are we arguing about?”

    Two minor points (in addition to whether there theoretically exists suc ha law, which of course there isn’t , though to be fair some scholars say what you say) though one I’m less sure about

    namely
    1) IF a law only exists in theory but not in practice does that law exist? I say of course not.
    Like according to the man deamaor that An Ir hanidachas could never happen, ie it doesn’t exist (lehavdil). there is no such thinkg as ir hanidachas So what’s the point? Lilmod ulekabel sechar (note: not just in case it ever does happen, according to this man deamaor that is not a thing) .
    Lehavdil in the constitution there is no such thing as “Lilmod ulekabel sechar” There is no theoretical law if it can’t happen in real life, then it isn’t a law, in fact the court won’t even rule on theoretical cases- I grant that reasonable people can disagree on this point
    2) The fact that it has never happened PROOVES that this interpretation isn’t correct. How could no one have made this claim before (in fact the court has ruled the reverse ,that there is no right to secede, and there are laws limiting the 1st amendment wehn it comes to talk of overthrow the government) ? – I’m less sure about this, I think it weakens your contention but granted it isnt proof.

    “Really. So when the guy is coming at his victim with knife upraised
    The victim tells him, ”hang tight, let me just make a quick call to my local court to see if I can kill you in self defense right now. BTW can you tell me the exact specifications of your knife because they will need to know. Also how much do you weigh?”

    no, he does what he needs to do. Then later the police/court will determine if what he did was justified . He claims the guy had a knife, witnesses say it was plastic etc etc.
    (to be clear if he was right to FEEL threatened that would be justified too in many cases eg although knife was plastic he had reason to think was real)

    I’m not saying any chidushim.
    you say “that’s what I have been trying to get you to understand all along.”
    I got it. You keep making the same mistake.

    Do you think A person can stab anyone he wants then say “Self defense! The guy was coming wit h a knife upraised”?
    and that is it end of discussion! He made the claim, uttered the magic phrase and now can’t be questioned.
    Johnny Cochran could’ve saved himself a lot of time, forget trying on gloves, just have OJ say the magic phrase and he walks

    “I see it that the law says self defense is permitted.”

    correct.

    ” I see the situation in in currently and I make a quick decision based on how I think the law applies to my specific scenario.”

    Correct

    “I don’t worry about the fact that I will not know how to answer in every other scenario. It really makes no difference.”

    correct.

    BUT you skipped what happens next if the police, later and courts deem your action to not have been justified. The knife was plastic for example, or he didn’t even have a knife you just claimed that he did so you can stab him.
    Obviously you’d be in trouble.

    Just because (you claim) you were acting in self defense doesn’t mean you are guiltless no matter what happens

    “Same here.”

    Correct!

    “The law (according to my chosen constitutional scholar) allows overthrow of tyrannical government.”

    ok, lets go with this

    “I, decide that the government stealing the vote fits the bill. Bingo I can act on it.”

    Correct.
    BUT the police and courts will later determine if your act was jsutified, was the government really tyranical, are your claims true. Saying ” tyrannical government ” is not a magic phrase that lets you do what yu want, just like claiming “self defense” isn’t

    Do I know if a different situation that you are curious about, also fits the bill of this law?
    Dunno. Come over shabbos after the cholent. If I can keep my eyes open we can schmooze about it. Whats the difference??”

    Two differences
    1) curiosity, I find this discussion interesting
    2) In my opinion it weakens your view. There have been many, (ok several.) To the best of my knowledge, NOT ONE of them made this claim, seems a bit odd. No its not proof of anything, just strange

    ” Here to the law states that the citizenry has the right to overthrow a tyrannical government the application is the question”

    So Ive given it more thought, and there are two separate points, that I conflated into one, thank you for setting me straight

    1) There is no such law
    2) Even if there were The court applies the law.

    You list all sorts of variables for the knife case to try to obfuscate the issue (see not just me!). It really isnt complicated the law is (not a verbatim quote ) “No killing unless in self defense”
    Who gets to decide what is self defense ? the court. easy.

    You say the law allows for overthrow the government, if it is tyranical. Again who decides how tyrannical ? If they try to discourage mail in voting is that tyranical? IF they demand voter ID would that be tyrannical? “I said it certainly applies in a case where it is having its vote stolen” who decides if votes are stolen?” well I say: ” Trump stole votes in 2016! he is tyrannical!” Is that a magic phrase that lets me shoot him? NOTE: these aren’t questions for you. The court would decide. The court says “hey why’d you shoot the President,” I’d say, “well He came at me with a knife, my life was in danger” court says “how big etc…” And decides If my action was justified. OR I say “he stole the election,” court would ask for proof, I’d say “well it feels that way”, and court would decide if my action was justified

    So back to Jan 6 Even if there were a law that said you have ” right to overthrow a tyrannical government” Who would decide when the government is tyrannical?. Again easy – the court. not you, not me. The court.
    So the shirtless viking when he gets his day in court can argue I was fulfilling my second amendment right (The court of course would be confused by what he meant, and he will mention whatever scholarly explanation he digs up) but it is the court that interprets. IT isnt a magic get-out-of jail phrase that he can use.

    “Perhaps the reason you cannot come up with any cases where the courts allowed arms Uprising against the government is because until now we never had a tyrannical government in the United States of America”

    Fair enough, though hard to argue Locking up people based on their ethnicity wasn’t tyrannical. (Though court did allow it) You still could argue nobody tried using this secret magic interpretation of the 2nd amendment known only to some scholars, so it was never tested in court.

    (as an aside as you may know there have been armed uprisings against “Tyrannical governments” sadly the rebels in those cases didn’t go to court , wit hone exception The court ruled in Texas v White in 1869 that there was no “right to secede” Its strange that there would be a “right to overthrow” but not secede. but I grant it is possible. ITs stranger still that they made no mention of the 2nd amendment it their arguments but again I guess that only gives right to ovetrhtrow not secede)

    Hopefully one of the “insurgents” wil use the 2nd amendment in court, so we can get a ruling.

    Sadly I don t think their lawyers will think of it .

    I’m not.
    I’m showing that your point can’t be true. Since practically it wouldn’t work.
    Laws are by definition practical. Having a law that if *** thinks the Government is tyranical he/she/they have the right to use force to overthrow it. With *** being an entitiy to be deteriiiiend later Is not a law any country would have .

    If you think it is fine.
    That is our disagreement .

    “I’m not the one who made the law. It’s on the books. ”

    You are and its not.
    There is no such law on the books. There have been over 200 years of Court cases. Can you provide ONE court opinion, even a rejected minority opinion that gives people that interprets the 2nd amendment as giving a right to overthrow the government think the government?

    In fact even the 1st amendment is somewhat limited when it comes to talk of overthrowing the government see the Smith act and US code 18 U.S. Code § 2385 – Advocating overthrow of Government” Now while SCOTUS in Yates Vs. US did interpret The SMith act more narrowly (that abstract talk of overthrow the Government was ok) They did not overturn the entire law as being against the 2nd amendment. In fact he second amendment isnt even mentioned in the decision decisions.

    The fact that off the cuff I can’t give you clear guidelines to a specific scenario, doesn’t change anything.”

    Fair enough, sorry for putting you on the spot. 8ts an argument I’ve heard before which while fine in theory, falls apart quickly in practice. I was hoping you’d flesh it out a bit more.

    “Do you agree that that is the intent of the second amendment?”

    Without question no. For the first 2 centuries of existence it was understood as applying to states . The nra promoted this reinterpretation over the past decades,, and it was finally accepted by scotus in Heller .
    There was no armed uprising (whiskey rebellion, John brown , waco) in which anyone saud hey they have a right to rebel, the givt is tyrannical.
    Even the civil war, which WAS a state led rebellion this view was rejected by court

    “But throwing in a specific instance and me not knowing the answer doesn’t do anything.”

    It does, because it shows that your position is untenable. The idea that any individual person has constitutional right to rise up against the govt if he thinks they are tyrannical is a position that stretches the imagination to the point thst most would acknowledge it can’t be true.

    Sure some would say it is true and some will prefer not to think about it. But it is far from a standard view.

    I’m not trying to convince you of the wrongness of your view , that was not my intent in bringing up blm, or any extreme example

    Also your post is peppered with a few inaccuracies

    ” THAT is what created the frustration and anger to boil over into this riot, not some single speech by trump.”

    No not a single speech. IT was months of saying the same, in fact he said it before the election took place, he said it before the 2016 election took place as well, sadly many of his supporters follow him no matter what. He said it so it must be true . so yes many of them believed there was fraud, but no not from a single speech.

    BTW THIS is what what Trump did was so terrible. Yes, many of them think they were doing the right thing, the President said there was fraud, as many of them claimed. Your argument works to defend them, not Trump. Trump knows there was no significant fraud (He would have hired real lawyers and presented his evidence if it were real .)

    I think I may agree with you on the rioters. What do we want for them, they are not very inteeligent or sophisticated, if they are told there was fraud they believe it. The guy who told these bozos over and over that there country is being stolen, and they have to fight ot keep it should be held accountable, not them.

    “, because statistical based on all signs before the election it was going to be a trump landslide.”
    Not sure what you mean, Most polls showed biden winning. The pundits who had accurately predicted past elections (including 2016) predicted biden winning . what signs are you referring to?
