Some people believe what they want instead of what is

Take Hawaii for example. Hawaii has only three species of native Lepidoptera- two butterflies and one moth. Hawaii has only three species of native orchid, and nothing to write home about. Colorado's native orchids are larger, more colorful and spectacular. Hawaii has only one kind of geology. I would be bored to death on Hawaii, and consequently never went. Many consider it a paradise. Not to me. But my disinterest in Hawaii is rooted in facts. Lounging on a beach somewhere, being gouged by gift stores, and scrounging for affordable food and a place to sleep isn't my idea of paradise. I can see why Obama wanted to get away from there ASAP.

  • Clearly you think so. — HeavyHemi, Wed Sep 6 9:12am
    Clearly you can read where your claim of absolutely no defense is objectively false. The post proves you are fundamentally dishonest. It sure is alarming how Trump Troopers have adopted the style of... more

        Sprout His post in your opinion, with respect to the case we have been discussing? Obeying orders is not a legal defense Mon Sep 4, 2017 4:51pm 192.86.118.14 from a strictly legal standpoint.... more
        • Read my post again. I cited the defense Nuremburg... — HeavyHemi, Wed Sep 6 12:43pm
          said could be used. I even pinpointed your failure to address them in your tantrum. Your assertion there is never a legal defense is false. I cited them. STOP LYING.
          • And to FURTHER clarify for you... — Sprout, Wed Sep 6 12:53pm
            The officer was presented ON THE SCENE with the documents showing he had no authority to force the blood draw. So, he cannot claim ignorance. I would think it wasn't that hard and didn't believe you... more
            • So, you concede to the exceptions and admit your mistake. — HeavyHemi, Wed Sep 6 2:23pm
              Once again, you try to change the argument to your own tiny specific example instead of the actual discussion. I cited examples using your standard provided exceptions. You are in fact wrong.
            • JP was a slow learner and developmentally behind — Pikes, Wed Sep 6 1:18pm
              I described him as a student differently. Less politically correct. I believe I wrote a sneaky little runt. Some things don't change. Same with defenses. When JP was sixteen, he looked twelve, and... more
              • Hahaha😀. I have to guffaw. — PH👁👁EY (JP), Sun Sep 10 11:39pm
                That describes me to a "T." Though I was never a runt. I was so immature my elementary school held me back a year in third grade. I did not have pubic hair until 17. And today at 72 I look 60.... more
              • I obviously don't know the guy personally... — Sprout, Wed Sep 6 1:26pm
                I was asked a question about a LEGAL defense of "obeying orders", and addressed it utilizing the example of the Nuremburg trials clearly showing that obeying orders to commit violations was not... more
                • Your argument is sound. — PH💉💉EY, Sun Sep 10 11:44pm
                  So why is it so difficult for another to grasp the simplicity of your points?
                • Again, the discussion isn't about YOU and YOUR argument. — HeavyHemi, Wed Sep 6 2:28pm
                  I asked the question. You don't get to change it to what YOU decide. I cited examples where in theory a defense exists. You asserted it never does. You are in fact wrong and your concession they DO... more
                  • Not so fast: — PH🗣🗣EY, Sun Sep 10 11:48pm
                    Your manner of discussion is more akin to a bum's rush ( or is it bum rush.). You cannot just dismiss a debator with the wave of an imperial finger wag or flippant hand gesture. The buzzer has... more
                    • Contrarian, I have asked you nicely. — HeavyHemi, Mon Sep 11 12:56am
                      Stop it now.
                      • Stop what? — PH😵😵EY, Mon Sep 11 7:41pm
                        You mystify me. I offer an opinion. It's not a particularly nice opinion. But I felt you were being haughty. Sorry if you are offended. Forgive me.
                      • LOL.... — Sprout, Mon Sep 11 8:43am
                        And what will you do if he doesn't? Wave your finger imperiously again? Or perhaps you will taunt someone as second time... LOL Whiner.
                        • Are you 12? — HeavyHemi, Tue Sep 12 3:35am
                          You posted your tantrum because you're upset that you you keep losing simple arguments. Grow up kid.
          • LOL... aparently you didn't read them — Sprout, Wed Sep 6 12:51pm
            because they clearly did not apply in this case. Or were you told to obey unlawful orders?
