    Maybe his Stay poor comment was about himself and that he was humbly admitting that like himself, Liberals should follow Christ’s example and sell all of his material possessions?

    I think this is a noble sacrifice he made to prove that material wealth isn’t important to his christian values.


  • Spot on. For years I had my self worth valued based on the women I was with/dating.

    After a divorce and string of bad relationships/breakups, I realized the issue was, largely, because of me. I wasn’t focused and invested in myself enough to be comfortable without a partner in my life. Which made me desperate, and that comes across and attracted the wrong sort of women to me, as well as kept my self worth artificially low so I allowed myself to be abused by others in the relationships.

    Spend time on yourself and being comfortable being alone. Be happy alone first. Then look for opportunities to meet people who can enhance your happiness, but not be the source of your happiness, if that makes any sense. That’s how good relationships work I finally learned.






  • No objective evidence. It’s tough to build a case around key witnesses and testimonies that are easily assailable by the defense, especially ones that could play well to a jury.

    It’s not fair, and this all very, very likely happened as the court documents allege. But proving it in a court of law is a whole different thing.

    Prosecutors generally try not to take cases they’re not confident they can win. They’re underpaid and overworked and try and follow the 80/20 rule, which is that they can do more good prosecuting the 80% of cases that are slam dunks, than waste tax payer money chasing 20% of the cases that require just about “everything to go right” for them to come out on top.

    It’s one of the many things flawed within our justice system right now that a DA won’t pursue this because the blowback of losing the case would end their career.
