You cannot chess.
All you had to do was move your bishop to lock his rook in place...then take your rook to the baseline. That would have been checkmate not check. Why didn't you do that?

No idea what u r talking abt.
It would seem so. Not the point.
Seems to me that's exactly the point.
About two years ago, the FBI got a warrant on false pretenses to break into every safety deposit box at US Private Vaults in Beverly Hills CA, and loot them. They had no specific evidence of a crime by any particular person with a safety deposit box there. In all, they looted an approximate $68 million in cash, precious metals, jewelry, gems, and other wealth from people that had DONE NOTHING, NO CRIMES WHATSOEVER.
The extent of this crime, and it is a crime, is just coming to light...

So, if the FBI can make up shit to get warrants to spy on a presidential candidate, can loot a safety deposit company at will, make up search warrants out of thin air, why should any reasonable person believe that they aren't doing all sorts of other criminal shit too?
There's a difference between what I believe and what I predict is most likely to happen. There's short term predictions and long term.
Considering that about half of America is under educated, at or below average IQ with at least 25% of them mentally ill...not to mention over half of them being sucked in by political party ideology, it's a pretty fair guess that another major terrorist attack will result in a repeat of the Patriot Act after 9/11.
The FBI legalizes robbery for themselves
No, it's not. The FBI looted an estimated $68 million from those safety deposit boxes. They opened every box in the facility and emptied it. They didn't press charges against anyone afterwards. They fucked lots and lots of innocent people. The FBI shouldn't be able to get a search warrant that allows them to open hundreds of safety deposit boxes without specific reasons to do so for each and every box they opened.
If they suspected someone of criminal activity, they could have found out which box was that person's and tailored a search warrant to open that specific box.
This short of shit used to happen in Arizona, but the legislature here passed a law requiring law enforcement to go to court after such a confiscation and hold a hearing where the person who had their shit confiscated gets a say, before they can keep it. If they don't, they're required to return the confiscated items. The Arizona law put the onus on law enforcement to prove that the confiscation was justified, not the person that had their stuff taken.
T.A. doesn't care about the facts.
Either he doesn't care or he can't tell. The past few weeks I'm leaning toward the latter.
Given his large number of posts supporting Trumpism, the theft of classified material and the Coup, an insanity defense at any trial of him materially supporting WSEs would be his best option.
Sez you. I think you're wrong.
Looks like Matt is jonesing for such an event.
Yeah I am not sure which it is. A psychologist/psychiatrist is required to diagnose him/her/it.
I agree that them ransacking the safe boxes that were rented by innocent people is bad. But US Private Vaults is the criminal one that used them to their advantage to mask the criminal activities. They should sue them.
Agreed there's the appearance of overreach and it's being resolved in court. It's not the first time a LEO or Prosecutor was overzealous, but the Qless and Trumpers want to dissolve the entire system because of a relatively few instances....most, if not all, of which are resolved in court.
The biggest thing seen in this thread is the standard White Supremacist Extremist ideology of demonizing the FBI with the hint that only violence will resolve it.
These people, crazy or not, are supporting violence against Americans. If that violence occurs, I strongly believe they should be held accountable for their actions.
Exactly. It does appear to be overzealous. But what would they want the FBI to do exactly?
All the innocent people, as few of them as there were, should be fully compensated for the bullshit. I have no sympathy for the drug dealers and WSE criminals like Chief TA Gardner has.
Yes and they will be. Sue the fuckers at US Private Vaults. They'll get millions of dollars.
But still the question remains: What would they have the FBI do in this case?
All the innocent people, as few of them as there were, should be fully compensated for the bullshit. I have no sympathy for the drug dealers and WSE criminals like Chief TA Gardner has.
Not a lawyer, but by confiscating anything over $5K by assuming it was ill-gotten gains is pretty thin. If that's all they had on a particular deposit box, then I believe it's bullshit. If the money was tainted with coke, meth or there were other evidence of criminal activity, then I can see why they confiscated it.
Notice that STY, a prominent Threeper, also has a thread about the FBI confiscating assets from criminals then, like Chief Gardner, seeding hate and violence against the FBI as being Gestapo assholes who need to be murdered.
