One might even think the outrage is less concern for the girl and more jealousy of the offender.
Um.

Geez. You’d think that occasionally Kennedy could get something right, if only by accident.
I noticed he didn’t ask The Big Questiontm: Do they win the Nobel Peace Prize?
Yes, that is a link to President Anwar Sadat’s acceptance speech. You might be interested to know he also received two American awards: Presidential Medal of Freedom and Congressional Gold medal.
Seriously, I’m really getting rather tired of bigots.
Why would I think that? If the ground were the target, he couldn’t hit it even by simply dropping something and letting gravity do the job.
As an aside, I find myself thinking negatively about JFK himself the more I see of his nephew.
Oh, come now. That is hardly appropriate.
Yeah, well, they’re basically sausages and sausages are what you can’t use in anything else that you grind up and stuff in a casing. Other ingredients that have been used in sausage a lot of people find icky are blood, bone, and various internal organs. Traditional casings being composed of lengths of intestines which you hope were well cleaned, having at one time conveyed food into excretement.
That is a matter of opinion. Being shot dead is not enough to make you a posthumous good person or president, nor does it absolve you of having a nazi father and a MAGA nephew.
No, I didn’t thoroughly read the post I was responding to it seems. My bad.
I was just thinking of the scraps you see in stores that are sold as ‘stew’ meat.
One would think that that is the thing he most likes about voters given is favorite timeline.
The key is that you only get the money if it leads to a charge and conviction. So since no Republican will be charged by the Trump DOJ it only applies to voter fraud by Democrats. Same with his bounty on tax fraud, he gets to decide who counts.
I also think – based on watching the DOJ’s ‘election fraud’ approach to California, Nevada, and Washington (State) – they’d amass a list of ‘probable criminals,’ and then use that list – entirely unvetted – as more ‘evidence’ of widespread voter fraud.
No vetting. No investigation. No Grand Juries. No prosecutions. No payouts.
Totally on-brand.
Wasn’t Gitmo largely populated, during the Global War on Terror, with the enemies of people looking to collect the US-offered bounty who simply ‘fingered’ people with whom they’d had long-standing (usually tribal) feuds?
It has a nice “Hitler Youth” ring to it, either way. Color me a fan.
I mean, to be fair, John F. Kennedy doesn’t need any “absolution” for the bigoted views of his relatives, since he didn’t share them and wasn’t responsible for them (RFK Jr was only nine when JFK was assassinated, after all).
To be fair in the other direction, though, asshole relatives “tainting the family name” is definitely a thing. We can tell ourselves all we like that Person X shouldn’t be held responsible for the views or behavior of their terrible family members, but on some level we tend to think worse of the X’s as a clan because of them.
Damming??? That’s practically a resume for this administration. That’s cabinet level qualification.
It’s a bit easier to avoid this when you have terrible relatives yourself. I don’t judge anyone by their family lest I get the same.
Why does one need absolution for having asshole relatives? My relatives aren’t my responsibility.
(Kids, maybe, but parents and extended family are entirely outside of my control.)
Yeah, that’s probably a post that should have been considered a bit more.
And it’s not like the rest of the family has given RFK Jr a pass. They’ve been publicly outspoken about him not representing the rest of the family.
In its own way, it’s a mirror of what RFK Jr and Trump himself were doing. Trump picked him hoping to benefit from association with the Kennedy name. And now, we have our very own poster trying to denigrate JFK due to association with his nephew and father.
Here’s a suggestion: maybe think twice before doing the same sort of thing Trump does
Drat! I misspelled it. It’s corruption absurdum!
Maybe he’ll go on the Adkins diet.
Judge orders the felon to pony up with actual evidence that justified the murders at sea.
Here’s the meat of the matter.
Another prosecutor canned by the court for being in the position illegally.
In the Pit? Better hold my beer than your breath.
Then read how the argument developed (post by Smapti, response by ThelmaLou, my 2c) and tell me why JFK is to be considered beyond criticism. I see a lot of faults in him, why this knee jerk defense? He was neither a saint nor a particularly good president.
Granted, he did not have much time to make it better. But his untimely death also prevented him from making his legacy worse.
Then criticize him on his own faults, not those of his father or nephew.
He was hardly a perfect man and he is certainly not beyond criticism, but “his daddy and nephew were not good people” is a fucking stupid thing to fault him for
Nobody said JFK was beyond criticism, or that his assassination absolves him of anything. Just that judging him because his relatives are assholes is stupid.
No. Epstein’s island. Oops too late! Missed that one.
