If you think folks are divided on Kavanaugh...you can't get a more divisive subject than abortion, hence my hybrid Jaws reference/pertinent to forum terminology post thingy. Shit just got real, in other words. I won't be deciphering all my posts like this btw.
Edit: NV just posted a behemoth while I was typing so this may seem out place...fuck....

Quote Posted by Nameless Voice
They could delay the nomination until after the election, when they hope to have a majority and then be able to nominate their own candidate, but the problem here is again that the Republicans could have just chosen to nominate one of their other candidates instead - it was certainly not guaranteed that they would instead dig in to support Kavanaugh. So, again, a risky gamble that the Republicans would react in the way that they did.
The Democrats won't be able to nominate a candidate even in the case they do take the majority (extremely unlikely). The only thing they could do is drag the nomination out for two years at a massive political cost to the party, and that's only if they somehow manage to keep all the Democrats from voting for the candidates, which is already a struggle with even a controversial candidate like Kavanaugh.

I would just like to point out that it can be a banable offense to change someone's quote. You can get away with it if it is funny maybe but misogyny that falls flat does not count.

Tocky's Tales!

Let me recap what just happened because I was here to see the whole thing:
-Tocky quoting jkcerda misquoting Starker
-jk responding saying the quote had gotten messed up because he was posting on his phone
-jk deleting his post AND the previous post, either from embarrassment or perhaps to entrap Tocky in some kinda misquote-tut-tuting self-own scenario.
-Purgator thinking Tocky is fucking high or something.
For the record I don't think we need any more reason to ban jk than HIS ENTIRE POSTING HISTORY SO FAR. The guy is just here to stir up shit.

It did look like a phone typo/mishap to be honest, I have to correct shit like that all the time myself.
NV nailed it, I agree with pretty much his entire post, especially the ending.

It was pretty obvious to me that part of jk's intended reply had ended up being embedded in the quote by mistake. What we ended up with didn't change the quote into anything sinister, just less comprehensible. No need to ban someone over that.

after some discussion away from here I am leaving of my own accord. hence the reason I deleted some messages.
thanks for the civil discourse.

As expected.
@NV...Thanks for the thoughtful response...When I have more time this evening (it's noon here now), I will comment on it.
