Instead of just SELECTIVELY reading why not deal with the FACTS instead, Cy? https://theconversation.com/central...-born-out-of-failed-anti-crime-policies-76554 Who was POTUS back in the 1980's, Cy? Which POTUS was the one who was INVOLVED in Iran-Contra, Cy? No amount of DENIALISM on your part alters these FACTS!
[QUOTE="Derideo_Te, post: 1072276852, member: 69526" Who was POTUS back in the 1980's, Cy? Which POTUS was the one who was INVOLVED in Iran-Contra, Cy? No amount of DENIALISM on your part alters these FACTS![/QUOTE] "Iran-Contra" was probably the most over-hyped, 'tempest-in-a-teapot' the country went through since Vietnam. Was Ronald Reagan charged with any crimes? No... in fact, he was hugely popular, being easily elected, and then re-elected to a second term, all this "Iran-Contra" hooptie notwithstanding.... All these gangs that popped up in L.A. and other cities in the United States came here and swelled based on two things primarily: widespread peasant 'unhappiness' with the domestic situations in the Central American shithole countries I've already mentioned, and, horribly lax American immigration policies since the end of World War II, allowed by Republicans and Democrats alike! In the 1960's, the 1970's, the 1980's, and right on up to today, liberal Democrats do everything imaginable to aid and encourage masses of 'immigrants' -- legal and illegal -- to come pouring into the United States, and, "No amount of DENIALISM on your part alters these FACTS!" But be happy, Te! Democrats are sweeping back into power and by mid-summer, 2021, we'll have even more 'caravans' of Central American and Mexican peasants swarming into the United States like they did during Comrade Obama's regime! Surely the memories of that would make any radical, America-hating Leftist's 'legs tingle'.... A last word about this -- WE ON THE RIGHT WANTED IT TO STOP! We on the Right wanted to round up all the rotten, criminal bunches of illegal alien trash and get them out (OUT) of the United States permanently! But what stopped that from happening, Te...? Now, finally, back on topic.... Uh, no, I don't think Donald Trump is going to 'pardon' himself. He may be charged with various crimes once he leaves the 'mantle of protection' afforded a sitting-president, but so far, nothing specific is known about what form such charges make take, if they take place.

No point in wasting time if you are NOT prepared to deal factual reality on this topic. I suspect that your biggest LOSER*-in-Chief WILL issue a blanket pardon for himself because it is the exactly the kind of egotistical crap he pulls all the time. The are plenty of solid cases to be made for BOTH his Federal and State level crimes. Hopefully he WILL spend the rest of his miserable excuse for a life behind bars where he BELONGS with the rest of the SCUM of the earth.
Hey, Te, I've got an idea! Let's compromise, so that if Trump tries to pull a 'self-pardon' stunt, we have Donald Trump and all the illegal alien "SCUM of the earth" thrown out of the United States -- PERMANENTLY! And if any of them (Trump, or the illegal alien trash) is ever found within the borders of the United States again, they'd be subject to immediate, on-the-spot, 'zero-tolerance' CAPITAL PUNISHMENT! How's that sound? See? Between you and me, we could clean up what's wrong with this country... and I still believe that. .
