As is often obvious from the comments, there are several of you with a desire to be able to discuss legal topics that are not necessarily Vegas centric. Here’s your chance. If you want to discuss the legal merits of a topic of (inter)national interest, i.e. national politics, free speech, the Insurrection Act, the government shutdown, the Israel/Hamas truce and hostage release, the Nobel peace prize, etc. etc, feel free to do so in the comment section of this post. We ask that you remain civil in your discussion and refrain from personal attacks on each other or the subjects of the discussion. Again this is for discussing the legal aspects of these issues, if it devolves into a stream of memes and vitriol then we’ll shut it down.

Will never credit the west for anything, and in particular will never credit Trump.
It’s pretty much an anti-west voice.
Re: Trump’s Nobel Peace Prize
It seems like he will receive it. I am of the opinion that of the many things Donald Trump is, a peacemaker isn’t one of them. I am fine with acknowledging the diplomatic accomplishments of his administration, although embellished. But this is a person who actively foments contention and hatred to leverage for his personal ambition.
Everyone remembers when President Obama received the prize for… vibes (we’re still not really sure). It’s fascinating to see all the people who see Trump’s impending NPP in terms of partisan scorekeeping. Congrats to both of the rotten political parties, each of your respective faux messiahs has received a bullshit NPP. Will evening things out bring peace to America? We all know the answer. The MAGA crowd will thirst for as much vengeance after the NPP as before. Because, well, PEACE.
Meanwhile, ICE roams our streets in unmarked cars, with masked, plain clothes officers acting like two-bit thugs snatching people off the streets without due process. You know, PEACE.
With regard to the Peace Prize, the will of Alfred Nobel stipulated that it was to be awarded to the person “who shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses”. Over the course of time the Nobel Peace Prize has been awarded in recognition of many different kinds of peace work and concepts of peace. https://www.nobelpeaceprize.org/nobel-peace-prize/about-the-nobel-peace-prize/
Has murder on the high seas ever been a concept of peace?
Narrator: He did not win.
They didn’t give it to him because he’s too Godly.
