I disagree. The public is not able to vet the qualifications of judges. Los Angeles County puts its judges on the ballot and I do a little research but I really don't feel qualified to have an opinion. I think the judicial branch benefits by not being subject to the whims of the electorate. We already have branches of government that serve that purpose.



How do you think judges should be chosen?


I am okay with governor appointments and confirmation by another body like the senate.



Look no further than the Superior Court of Contra Costa County, where then Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger appointed a ton of LIBERAL JUDGES to fill vacancies, to the point where DA Diane Becton and her team cant even do their job anymore.

These judges do everything they can to eliminate jail time. And Covid gave them cover too.

Yeah, that's worked out real well.
Real well for our society.




I don't follow.

Are you saying that if the judges had been elected they would be more conservative than those appointed by a Republican governor?

No.
What I'm saying is that the APPOINTMENT of judges isnt a good idea.
And given some of the judges that we have here in CoCo County, Arnold's party affiliation was meaningless.

The voters need to educate themselves and figure out who they want to vote for.
It's the responsibility of the voter, if they want to have a say in the criminal justice system and people who commit crimes being held accountable. I read through the bio's of the judges. Do searches, etc. But I would assume that this "category" by the voter pn Election Day is often times the most neglected.

I suspect it might have something do with having only one acting gig since 2015 according to imdb.com.

Scott used to sit next to Larry Storch of F Troop fame at the Old TV Shows Autograph Extravaganza at the Culver City Convention Center. During signings, Scott mastered the art of silently crying with no shoulder heaving whenever he was asked to sign a brassiere, "With love, from the Karate Kid."

Looks like George Santos will be enjoying the "bottom" bunk in Prison fairly shortly.
I bet that his eyes will "pop" out even more than this photo when he meets his new cellmate.

I'll mark you down as not paying attention to reality for the last 75 years. Could be longer than that.

Times have certainly changed. 25 years ago, an open border with illegal immigration without consequence was considered a radical leftist idea. Now, it is progress and those wanting to close the border against illegal immigration are considered right wing nutjobs.

When have we not had "an open border with illegal immigration without consequence"? Today is no different than 50 or 100 years ago, except now we have saturation coverage by near hysterical talking heads on several popular "news" and propaganda channels.

Whew the cognitive dissonance is in their DNA at this point.

As the saying goes "because they say it they believe it to be truthful" that amount of headassery is incomprehensible.

You're terribly misinformed.
You operate from a very poor knowledge base.
So much so, that I actually feel sorry for you.

Pity from you … hard pass it could never be genuine/sincere

Love how you and oski align on something like this F the pro rape conversation but it goes hand n hand with ….

Takeaway: Disrespecting women is just fine by y'all I guess as long as it's a racist white man or capitulator

Sadly, you conflate as badly as BearGoggles.
As a result, your takeaways are as worthless as your claims about me being a racist white man.

You clearly are unable to make any distinctions because your knowledge base is so poor.
Try increasing your knowledge base about WHY people are so critical of TikTok.

You do realize that you accused him of being slow first, right?

Or do you also have a license to insult first because of the social construct?

Do you have no issue with our geopolitical enemy having potential access to all that personal data of the users?

I think most of us would be OK if TikTok were sold to a wholly-owned U.S. company that the Chinese government could not exert it's unbending influence similar to the way it can with a Chinese company.

Your post here has absolutely nothing to do with Tik Tok, and you have a very poor grasp of reality. Nobody said disrespecting women is fine. Your desperate attempts to tie race into everything are sad and misguided.

You do realize he has posted lots of things directed towards me out of hatred.

The slow comment was reactionary which is not nearly as bad as his coded racist back handed statements.

I have never professed to being infallible

He doesnt appear to understand the security risks.
And he's never even touched upon it.

He doesnt appear to have an issue with the Chinese using TikTok to spy on its users and/or do data-mining.
And he refuses to try and learn about these significant issues.

But what would I know?

To him, I'm just another racist white man.
Never mind my friendships with my track and field brothers when I walked onto the team at Cal in 1980.
Friendships that have lasted ever since.
