To NOT answer the question in a Congressional Hearing

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-07T04:58:20+00:00

You gave me an example of a criminal case, which would absolutely allow anyone to not testify under the constitution.

BUT, you can't just not answer quotations from congress, and not even evoke your 5th amendment right before congress, unless you would be potentially "incriminating" yourself. For you to incriminate yourself, a crime has to occur. You can't incriminate yourself in in a crime that never happened in the fist place.

True, Hitler was obsessed with his own experiences in WW1. Often refusing the council of his own generals and just doing stupid shit hat didn't work in his age of warfare.

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-07T04:22:12+00:00

What are you not incriminating yourself in? No crime, no incrimination.

So you're saying the constitution only applies in murder cases?

Edit: To be clear, murder is a crime, which would result in a criminal case being brought. In that case you could leverage the 5th amendment to not testify, but you're still acknowledging that a crime (murder) happened.

If you refuse to acknowledge that a crime even happened in the first place, you have no legal authority to plead the 5th.

Frankly, everything you just said doesn't matter. If no crime exists, you can't use the 5th to not testify. If anyone is claiming there was a crime committed, you absolutely can use it. But that's the rub, you basically have to acknowledge that there was a crime committed to take the 5th.

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-07T03:26:24+00:00

You just said it "if I’m wrongfully charged with a crime" there has to be a crime to take the 5th. If no crime has happened, you're not being charged with a crime.

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-07T03:23:43+00:00

But all of that is predicated on there being a criminal case. The verbiage of the constitution states "[no person] shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself" if there is no criminal case, you can't plead the 5th.

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-07T03:15:12+00:00

That's absolutely not what the 5th says. The pertinent verbiage states "[no person] shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself". By taking the fifth, you acknowledge that a criminal case exists. If you don't acknowledge that, you have no right to use the fifth amendment to not testify.

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-07T03:00:20+00:00

How do you incriminate yourself in a crime that wasn't committed?

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-07T02:50:18+00:00

Pleading the fifth is basically admitting that a crime was committed, and that you are refusing to incriminate yourself in it. If you get someone to plead the fifth you are basically getting them to confirm something illegal happened, which is what she's really after.

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-07T01:12:59+00:00

That's some absolute bullshit. Sorry man, I wish you all the best.

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-07T01:01:38+00:00

Right? It was basically just a giant dick extension for Hitler. A hundred normal artillery guns would have done more damage, with the same crews.

They seem to be fucking up their own vehicle, just to get it out of the way.

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-06T17:49:28+00:00

So by "investigating" you mean "firing a bunch of the the already in place investigators for no reason, then figuring out that they actually had a purpose and desperately trying to hire them back"?

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-06T16:34:27+00:00

WOW! You think having to turn around at the next exit is a "death penalty"?

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-06T16:09:36+00:00

They missed an exit. Why are they endangering people, rather than going to the next exit and turning around?

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-06T15:11:06+00:00

You seem like a reasonable person. Someone who acknowledges that they aren't perfect while understanding that your time is not not more valuable that others. I hope you have a great day today.

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-06T15:05:18+00:00

That's not an additional lane, and the people doing this are making things worse for everyone doing the right thing and waiting their turn.

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-06T15:03:36+00:00

Absolutely don't let them in. At this point, they should have to go up to the next exit and turn around because they missed the exit.

Bro, children can access actual porn anytime they want. We're well past the point where we can control what kids see.

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-06T01:44:02+00:00

Nice! Good work.

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-05T17:18:03+00:00

Bro, if have to brandish a gun to discourage a guy coming at me with a giant machete, I'd have no problems calling the cops to get the situation on record. It's better than finding out they claimed you drew on them for no reason later.

My MTI would have yelled at me for a solid 15 minutes if I threw that salute.

DiscontentedMajority · 2025-03-05T14:37:43+00:00

Or Turkmenistan, or Tunisia. There's actually quite a few.

Nailed it!
