Guilty/not guilty of charges

We are at step 1,2.
There may not be any further action, there may be.

You really have not contributed with these motherhood statements.

The poster I directed them to, may better off explaining them himself !

Why? Are you attacking the poster directly or actually looking for an answer.

You can only be found guilty at the end of the process. You asked if he was guilty then when do proceedings start. I thought you sounded a little confused.

Because he made an ill considered statement.

"Several counts of treason and at least one count of perjury? "

He has posted this, and I am sure he wants to be taken seriously, so I think it is reasonable to ask for clarification.

Yes your post is correct, that is how things should happen. But unfortunately, the world as it is does not seem to work like this, particularly with the media, fake, censored or otherwise.

And she is a senior adviser

Yeah, that was her clarifying later after making the initial, more direct claim. The base reads it, gets riled up and at that point, it doesn't matter that she later says - well, I didn't really suggest Obama did those things, just that these are possible ways that he may have if he ever considered it.

The supporters disdain for Obama increases (and rally behind poor Trump) and hopefully detractors get peed off at such stupid comments, moving on from more damaging allegations.

From the very first press conference, this administration has been peddling 'alternative facts' and attempted to discredit mainstream media (Trump calling them the enemy of the people and fake news at every opportunity). Trump's ego incapable of handling any criticism, lashes out at anyone on Twitter who dare challenge or mock him. As well as throwing out unsubstantiated claims from conspiracy kooks - Obama wiretapped me!

I have to admit, I do see the funny side of this tragedy, but that's only because he's not the leader of my country, I don't (won't) have children so his climate change denial won't affect my future generations and he hasn't yet drawn us into another pointless war in an effort to boost public opinion of himself.

Why don't you ask the same of Hilary?

Double standards?

What?

[Trump]

Enough with the personal attacks.

Oh well, reset the counter and start again...

Wonder when Assange will release the next batch of documents - he's sitting on 900,000 of them lol.

This might help with the pain:

I agree entirely.

For the fourth time in 10 days I have posts reported here.

At first glance this thread is a complete breach of site T&Cs but has along enough life that it can stand.

A discussion about differing views is fine but personal attacks for having a differing view won't be tolerated.

As I explained via PM to a poster, it is fine to say "I disagree with your opinion because.....". It is not acceptable to say "you are an idiot for saying that".

I also think that if you are posting in this thread almost to the exclusion of all other threads, you are not proving, first and foremost, that you are a car enthusiast (this is the reason the site exists).

Lighten up, express your view and supporting facts and then go and post something about cars.

The alternative is closure of the thread because you kids can't play properly in the sand pit.

They're not doing themselves any favours are they...

[Trump]

Clinton possibly received 800,000 votes from "non-citizens":

An investigation by NPR back in 2012 reveals as many as 1.8 million dead people are enrolled to vote, with a further 24 million otherwise invalid or inaccurate:
