Barr Lies

I would love to blast a pepper ball in Bill Barrs face and ask
Not that bad, huh?

The thought has occurred to me also. Feel free to share and no need to hold back.

Oh, we all know you want your balls in guys faces. We know.

All the "then" democrats are now Republicans. Nixon's southern strategy remember?

Not really. My folks were Democrats then and now. And if they tried to join the KKK, they woulda been lynched on the spot.

Those actions were by people, not a party, namely people who lived in the South and had racist beliefs. Back then, like now, there were Democrats throughout the USA, and yet the only ones involved just so happened to be...

Ooookay.

Such an articulate argument. I may have to spend hours parsing the meaning of four Os rather than 3 or 5.

Which politicians changed sides?

John Connolly, the governor or Texas who was in the limo with JFK. Strom Thurmond, a Democratic Senator who ran for president for the explicitly segregationist Dixiecrat party after the trying and failing to block the Civil Rights Act. Those are 2 off the top of my head. You can research more if you like.

I have researched this, and I have Strom Thurmond. That is the one representative in Congress to switch sides. That's it.

I've heard 1 too. A MASSIVE switch.

One is the lonelyist number you will ever see

Double points for that comment. I need to start using ''parsing'' also.

balls in men’s faces?

I’m assuming this portrait must hang in your bedroom?

If only. Then he could spray CNN reporters.

Haven't been able to find that one again on the web since finding it over 2 years ago.

Tell me.

Aren't you glad for that awful comb over now?

yup,,, hahaha

Check it out.

Kf has 5,977 subs.

#2 on imgflip lol

imgflip.com/topusers

Dash is #2, close to 100 isn't.

I'm talking about featured memes. Only Who_am_I has more.

I don't see it there?

But they gotta take care of that. Posting the same pic 3X at once, usually not captioned, and reposting many again a mere 2 weeks later.

That's where most of his pts come from too.

He literally submits more of them in a single day than all I have in my years here.

He's getting close to the 100 spot.

There should be limits. He's clearly abusing the system.

You're the one with the naked Trump pic lol

Sound jealous
It’s all yours

Barr was talking about the people in Lafayette Square. By all accounts, except Barr's, they were peacefully exercising their constitutional rights of speech and assembly. Beyond that, the vast majority of demonstrators have been peaceful and law-abiding.

The "vast majority"...LOL...

Except the police who were hit with bricks? Yeah let's just ignore that because well it doesn't go with our "peaceful" line

If you watch the news, you can see thousands of people in cities all across the country simply marching in protest. They vastly outnumber the looters from the first couple of nights. However, that doesn't change the fact that Barr simply lied, to justify the actions in Lafayette Square. He said "no chemical irritants were used...pepper balls." The manufacturer of pepper balls touts them as the most effective chemical irritant available. These are verifiable facts.

You have ZERO EVIDENCE Barr lied about the protesters being violent. He stated cops were hit with bricks. He was there, he is the attorney general, I think he would have better information on the topic than you.

Lastly, you're bitching about pepper spray? Really? Make up your mind. Do you want cops to use non-lethal force or not? Finally, Barr is required to know what is on the website for a company who supplies products to the government? The US government is the largest purchaser of goods in the world, is Barr required to know what's on the websites for every company that does business with the Government?

Please stop talking out of your ass.

The interview I heard he never said anything about bricks being thrown, he simply said there was violence despite video coverage and many eyewitness reports to the contrary. Saying that no chemical irritants is a lie because he said pepper balls were used. The statement is self contradictory. You don’t have to know what’s on the website of any company to know that pepper spray is a chemical irritant, images from any usage of it will tell you that.

Non-lethal force has its place. I’m not changing my mind, I’m saying there was no reason to clear Lafayette Square or use any force, just so Trump could cross the street for a photo op.

He is the AG and he has a history of not being truthful.

"He is the AG and he has a history of not being truthful."

Just more bullshit. What instances do you have where Barr lied?

Barr said there were no chemical irrantants used. How do you know what he meant. Is it possible because capsaicin is a naturally occurring material he didn't consider it "chemical"? It just seems like a you're blowing something small into something major.

In the interview with CBS, Barr clearly said bricks were thrown at police and rioters had up pavers from the road to throw as well.

Well, saying that chemical irritants were not used in a statement where he says pepper balls were used is clearly a lie. He also lied about the contents of Mueller Report. That’s 2. I’m not going to spend time researching other instances.

And if he had killed someone with arsenic, which is naturally occurring, could he credibly say he didn’t use poison. You’re resorting to a favorite tactic to defend administration lies, which is to claim that the clear meaning of words isn’t what they mean. Pepper spray isn’t a chemical, disinfectants aren’t poisons because most people think of them as antibiotics. Seriously? If he was splitting hairs that finely the only reason to do it was to convey a falsehood.

Yes, he said bricks and pavers were thrown but not in Lafayette Square. Are you suggesting that actions in one city justifies attacking peaceful protesters in another?

"He also lied about the contents of Mueller Report."

No, no he didn't. In fact Mueller stated that Barr didn't misrepresent the contents of the report on a phone call with Barr, and other DOJ officials who confirmed Barrs claim.

"And if he had killed someone with arsenic, which is naturally occurring, could he credibly say he didn’t use poison"

No, because aresnic is a known poison. In this case, the media LIED FOR A WEEK about the police using tear gas. Barr may well have thought by saying "there was no chemical irritant" he was referring to tear gas. Which was not used.

"Yes, he said bricks and pavers were thrown but not in Lafayette Square"

False, he specifically said this happened in Lafayette Square in his CBS interview.

Now, please stop acting like it's the administration who is behaving lawlessly.

I've read much of the Mueller Report and I heard Barr. He misrepresented the contents in a major way by leaving out the statement that the Trump campaign sought help from and was willing to accept help from Russians. That Mueller could not prove conspiracy is true, because Don T Jr. had a meeting with Russians that ultimately went nowhere. But Don Jr. was very interested in what they had. Trump himself told the Russians to find Hilary's emails and Wikileaks started publishing them that day. The other misrepresentation is about the 10 instances of obstruction. Sure Barr didn't find sufficient evidence. Read the report. There's a ton of evidence. Mueller didn't charge Trump because he relied on the DOJ position that a sitting president can not be charged. However, Mueller virtually begged Congress to act.

Barr explicitly said pepper spray is not a chemical irritant. Do you seriously believe that someone of his experience, or even someone his age without being in law enforcement thinks pepper spray is not a chemical irritant. Naturally occurring or not as you say about arsenic, it's an irritant. Chemicals don't have to be made in the lab—"A chemical substance is a form of matter having constant chemical composition and characteristic properties."—and of course any pepper spray used by police is going to be refined in a lab.

LIED FOR A WEEK? Are you saying that no police forces have used tear gas during these demonstrations, and yes, looting and rioting.

You are correct, my mistake, he did say pavers and bricks were thrown, but he was talking about the days before this action. There are multiple eyewitness reports that the protesters were peaceful. There is no footage that I know of to support Barr's claim. And if such actions occurred, why was no one arrested?

This administration has acted unlawfully since day one and throughout the election. So I will continue to point it out when I see it.

From here, it is clear we are not going to agree. We see the same evidence and reach different conclusions.

"The other misrepresentation is about the 10 instances of obstruction"

There was zero misrepresentation about this. Further, these were instances of POSSIBLE obstruction. The special counsel doesn't determine guilt or innocence, they conduct an investigation and submit their findings. It's up to a jury, in this case the Senate to decide if obstruction ever happened. And since the Democrat controlled house never brought obstruction of Justice chargesin relation to the Mueller investigation in the impeachment process, the Senate never ruled. So to say there was Obstruction is not only factually inaccurate, it's pure fiction.

"There are multiple eyewitness reports that the protesters were peaceful."

Barr is an eyewitness, he was there. Further don't you think the sitting attorney general would have access to more eye witness accounts than two or three observers who can only speak to what they personally saw?

"
Barr explicitly said pepper spray is not a chemical irritant. Do you seriously believe that someone of his experience, or even someone his age without being in law enforcement thinks pepper spray is not a chemical irritant"

You have no idea what he knows or doesn't know or how he is defining the term.

"This administration has acted unlawfully since day one and throughout the election. So I will continue to point it out when I see it."

Again you merely state your personal opinion as an established fact. Numerous legal experts, Democrat legal experts nonetheless, such as Turley and Dershowtiz, roundly reject this assessment.

You may well have read the Mueller Report, but Mueller was the lead investigator who oversaw the development of the report. And Mueller stated Barr didn't misrepresent his findings. Your personal feeling on the matter is not above the assessment provided by Mueller.

Yes, and the vast majority of cops are decent. Does that matter to you?

Yes, that is correct I’ve done some work with the police and they were all very decent. That doesn’t excuse the behavior of cops who violate our rights or who murder blacks while arresting them, or who drive police vans into crowds, or who push over a protester who is merely talking to him then leave him lying and bleeding on the sidewalk. All those decent cops should be outraged at the behavior or the few who sully the uniform.
