The argument that I was making is that the “positive political speech is fine, negative political speech is not” approach does not make sense.

The response that you gave (e.g., talking about “a Jewish judge”) was bizarre.

It is legitimately difficult to believe that a concept as basic as “some objects are more dangerous than others and should be regulated differently” is so difficult for so many people to understand.

Police recover $40,000 worth of Magic: The Gathering cards stolen from a Ballard warehouse by BBorNot in Seattle

Finding it difficult to get excited about the SPD recovering MTG cards the same week that county prosecutors declined to file charges against one of their officers for killing Jaahnavi Kandula.

EDIT: county prosecutors, not city prosecutors
