Still waiting for the source.

On an entirely separate subject, Facebook will now show users which Russian propaganda they followed. A bit late but an overdue initiative.

Then you can keep on waiting. I don’t take kindly to demands. I’m still waiting for answers to my questions from months back from certain posters.

In an era of fake news, if anyone posts unsubstantiated statements on a forum, I would fully expect them to be challenged to support those statements.

I don't care what you fully expect.

I know the information to be a fact, if you have trouble believing it, then you look for the sources.

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump

Unless I am missing something the Maryland Judge was appointed by Obama:

https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-...el-ban-attempt

Quote:
A federal judge in Maryland has blocked parts of President Trump's most recent attempt to impose broad limits on who can enter the U.S., granting a motion for a preliminary injunction that was filed by plaintiffs led by the International Refugee Assistance Project.

The plaintiffs "have established that they are likely to succeed on the merits," District Judge Theodore D. Chuang wrote in the Tuesday order dealing another setback to the Trump administration's attempt to ban travel to the U.S. by citizens of certain countries.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodore_D._Chuang

But I don't like the idea of turning the justice system into a Democrat vs Republican thing. This is why judges have tenure and lifetime appointments, to be free of political pressure, and it works. There needs to be a system that both sides agree on otherwise the whole thing falls down.

It's never going to go away, GOP vs DNC. The two party system in America is broken.

As much as they worship the Constitution, it is in large parts, outdated.

To put things in to perspective, the last amendment, Amendment 27, took 202 years to be ratified, after it was first proposed back in 1789!!!

Amendment 27 was finally ratified to the Constitution in 1992, 25 years ago.

You may well be right with your statement but until you cite a reliable source then it just looks like more unsubstantiated opinion and less like the reliable fact-based arguments you were once known for.

What is the obsession with you wanting to prove my posts are correct or not?

Damien just highlighted that Hugh was wrong on who appointed the Maryland Judge, it was Obama, not Bush, but I did not see you chasing Hugh's posts and confirming his sources were correct or not.

As I said earlier, I do not take too kindly to people who have a demanding attitude, such as they 'expect' or are 'waiting', on something from me. They will be waiting for hell to freeze over, with this kind of attitude because I will simply just ignore it.

Call me old-fashioned but it's pretty accepted for anyone who makes a controversial statement to back it up with evidence. Damien and Hugh do cite sources but for some reason you seem to feel that's no longer necessary.

Exactly. Some people seem to think that they're above facts and evidence, they're just needed for the likes of you and me to keep us in our place.

How about this unsourced one. "It is crucial to note that in Phoenix, when Sanctuary city funding ceased, was one of a few factors in the murder rate dropping."

That's not a controversial fact. If you still do not believe it, go search for it, the time it has taken you to keep pestering me to do so, you could have done a google search by now.

I will not say this again. I suggest you do a search on it, because I am not because I believe it to be accurate.
