So did they break the law? Because last I heard that is the job of a judge. To run Court proceedings, not to see if the DA was prosecuting others... Yeah judge I killed that dude, but the gangs kill people all the time and I don't see them here so you should dismiss the case.

This is the next step.
Find me the far-left extremist groups then, judge Carney. Show me where the left in the U.S. is encouraging stochastic terrorism. Show me the militant leftist groups using empty U.S. states as training grounds.
Really hope federal prosecutors keep up the fight until a non-Nazi judge can make a decision on the case, and I hope this fuck can get voted out from his position over this.
Far left groups are doing even worse things.
They are trying to get homeless people fed, americans paid fair wages, and hold politicians accountable for their actions. GOD CAN NO ONE STOP THIS NIGHTMARE OF LIBERAL TERRORISM.
Is this that Judge Carney who called a black colleague "street smart" and then privately doubled down by trying to explain to her how it's a compliment?
Don't know the context, but "street smart" was a compliment in my day. Nothing to do with race, it was meant to convey wisdom and experience vs. raw intelligence.
I've never had either. YMMV.
Calling a highly educated person in a profession that requires that education ‘street smart’ denigrates that education and that person’s accomplishments.
I did say I wasn't aware of the context. I even led with that statement.
Interesting how things are perceived so differently across cultures. In Asia that's a compliment regardless of profession
It is interesting. I think the negative perception here comes from the fact that ‘street smarts’ are often contrasted with ‘book smarts’. It is frequently expressed along with other anti-intellectual sentiments and is too often racially-tinged.
Calling a minority that in a ‘book-smart’ profession in the US is a tone-deaf party foul at best. I think the term ‘back-handed compliment’ is apropos.
Which far-left extremist groups are those getting away with inciting violence? PETA?
It doesn’t matter. You shouldn’t dismiss a case because other people get away with the same crime.
I mean yes, of course, but I don't even believe it's true. Name a violent left-wing organization. Antifa? They aren't organized at all. BLM? While there is an organization, it's awfully damn loose and not everyone at a BLM protest is actually part of the organization.
Seems like letting authorities choose to treat people differently when everyone is violating a law is pretty dangerous.
It's been observed that the body of modern law is so vast that nobody could possibly stay on the right side of the law all the time. Unenforced laws together with your principle would give the authorities the ability to legally attack anyone they don't like such as political enemies or even entire racial groups they hate and then defend their actions by pointing out that those bad people did, in fact, violate the law regardless of what other people are doing.
PETA's hardly a far left group, they fill their kill shelters by kidnapping pets from poor families of color
How much did Tyson Chicken pay to put up the website you heard that from?
When the campism is so strong you'll stan an org led by a psycho who thinks male dogs humping your leg means they can consent to top you.
I'm not aware of that particular claim.
I just don't think their euthanasia program is what you have made it out to be. I would be willing to look at it with you if you are entirely sure what you are saying is unvarnished truth.
So your first link literally states that PETA accidentally picked up what they thought was a feral dog, as part of a program they run for the community.
Your second source is literally a blog.
I’m certain the Nazis won’t see this as a green light and be emboldened by the pseudo support this judge is providing them…
Does this mean any left leaning defendant who has been prosecuted under this judge deserves a retrial?
