Very telling that the first shot across the bow of AT&T board of directors has been fired, elevating this beyond the newsroom.

Democratic 2020 Presidential Primary Thread
GG replied to snafu's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
The knives are out, now that Biden has attacked Bernie directly. -
Pornhub being sued by deaf man for lack of subtitles
GG replied to Royale with Cheese's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Which prompts the question from the hearing crowd, 'The videos have sound?' -
I guess he's still alive?

The Impeachment Trial of President Donald J. Trump

I don't get involved in random tangents. You were asked a basic question in this thread, like you've been asked basic questions in other threads. You always choose to run away. -
Global warming err Climate change HOAX
GG replied to Very wide right's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
These stories caught my eye when there were so many alarms about the conditions of The Great Barrier Reef around 2015, obviously attributed to the global warming calamity. Turns out, they didn't even know at the time there were massive eruptions near New Zealand a few years prior, with ongoing activity. The entire Ring of Fire has been hyperactive over the past decade, and I'm guessing they really have no clue of the true underwater activity. -

In other words, you can't answer why all this info was dumped on the eve of articles being transmitted to Senate. -
This has to be the world's worst quid pro quo ever.

Global warming err Climate change HOAX
GG replied to Very wide right's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
It's been asked before but ignored. Wouldn't the oceans' temperature rise faster due to warming that's occurring under water - ie undersea volcanic activity - rather than from atmospheric warming? -
And no Pat Benatar again? Joke.

Totally against censorship. I guess the question is - How or should information be shared about serious offenses that are in the public domain?

A former frequent poster has a public record on a topic that's frequently discussed here.

For starters, this is the link to the board's ToS (a few more carriage returns wouldn't hurt). I also do not want to dictate policy on a forum that I do not control. At the end of the day, we are at Scott's mercy and discretion. For that, we should be grateful for opening up this sandbox and letting it be more open to exchanges, no matter how rancid they may turn. Predictably, as some topics have gotten more heated, we need to address the elephant in the room of what should be done when posters are discovered to have a criminal past. As is the case with any community, this site is populated by many folks who have been convicted of something - all the way from speeding tickets to the ultimate sin (and many things in between). The question we face is how to handle this properly, just like any functioning community would. I am against openly doxing individuals on a forum that allows anonymity, especially when the offense is not public. I would also engage the poster privately first, if someone made me aware of allegations (such as a certain FB incident a few years back) But if the crime had been committed and is in the public records, then people are free to apply their standards of airing the news. I think if the crime is serious and would affect the discourse, then I believe it should be disclosed to the community. Appreciate all opinions.

Why didn't the House insist on his testimony? It's their job. PS, why did the House introduce this evidence now and not part of their proceedings? If you are a lawyer, what would this say about your abilities?
