War crimes anywhere near combat are essentially impossible to prove. Killing PoW is actually legal if they cannot be safely captured and detained without affecting their ability to defend themselves.
You'd have to prove that Russians were fully capable of keeping them prisoner without risking their lives. You don't have take anyone prisoner if holding them is risk.
War crimes are more a wish list than rules with teeth.

Reply to comment by gunnergoz in AG Garland makes surprise visit to Ukraine by rewindpaws
Garland already handed over any investigation, it would be inappropriate for him to now personally investigate Trump.
This is entirely pointless politics and just proves Garland isn't doing his job other than being completely useless.

War Crimes have nothing to do with Garland. He won't even prosecute Russia's stooge, who the hell believes Garland gives a shit about war crimes?

> People who did not attend college who have felt or experienced being looked down on by the college educated. This is either them seeing people who have more privileged lives than themselves getting even MORE help
This is it largely for me. I mean, I 100% get why it's a good thing, but once again it is just help for people who may not have actually needed it when there are solutions that still would have helped them and benefited the rest of us who never got that far.
So, sure, 100% forgive their loans, forgive all of it and give them their money back they already paid.
But for the love of god, don't fucking stop there. Don't forget those who couldn't afford to even go into more debt. Don't stop at loan forgiveness or otherwise I can understand why people think it's bullshit and all you look down on us for not liking it can go fuck yourselves.
We cant even get a $15 minimum wage and people want their college debt forgiven. Let's not even talk about how much more money a college grad makes over a high school grad. Pretty sure the majority of people making minimum wage didn't get a college degree or did while getting their degree. It's tough listening to this fight when we didn't even win the last one.

Cops and justice have very little in common. They exist to enforce laws, they don't care how fair or proper any of it is.

The Republican Party has gone full treason. They proved they don't give a shit about voting by staging a coup and not being remotely upset about it.

Pretty sure they got video or recorded evidence. Considering how much Trump threatened to release the tapes, I think the tapes were being used against him already.

If you cannot afford to miss work or that being on the jury would cause you intense financial hardship, you can request to be excused from duty. They don't pay you enough to cover anything more than some of you travel expenses.

China really needs to get NK under control. Even if they don't start a war themselves, NK might do it for them. The only reason NK is so brave is because China stands behind it. IMO, this is all on China to get under control.

Comedy doesn't discriminate. Gilbert Gottfried did a 9/11 joke two weeks later.
Yeah, some jokes are dark and it's a way for some to cope with horrible things in life. Only by making it something we can laugh about does it become something not so overwhelmingly bad that you can process a bit of it little by little. Can't do something about something you're too afraid to deal with.
