Credibility to what? I never said 9/11 wasnt an inside job, never said it was.
1) I worked at FEMA at the time of 911 as a consultant.
2) I'm not discussing the incident
3) Pat has you blocked. So you might as well stop talking to him.
Building 7 looked fish, and im not saying events of 9/11 didnt look fishy, I get that. But other than that I dont want to hear your speculations as to why. Cause even if some shit went down, neither you nor anyone else has a clue what it was.
I really dont give a shit about conspiracy theory nonsense. Keep that to yourself.
@Pat oh I must have missed that. Did he use it offensively? I saw the use of "nigga" but it didnt seem to be used in an offensive way to me.
Or am I missing something. I usually block for offensive uses of the word myself. Blocked a few today already.
One could make the argument that for the 24 hours around the event of 9/11 they could have suspended HC. But that wouldnt get them very far anyway. They were only on american soil for a short period, so thats too small of a window for them to use HC in any concerning way... but yea, technically yes.
@Pat Who was that?
By the point there is an invasion on US soil things will be too fucked for anyone to care about Habeus Corpus honestly.
Its the day "These United States of America" turned into "The United States of America" :)
Due process is suspended by war too, its what lets me shoot you in the face if I consider you the enemy even if you arent actively aiming a gun at me. The constitution makes alot of exceptions for war time, you get some limited due process of course, but much of it, like habeus corpus can be suspended.
Now to be clear it is only during **invasion** or **rebellion**. So the war has to be on american soil in order to suspend the right. Which seems like a fair distinction.
Right in the constitution, Article I, Section 9:
"The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it."
It is not restricted to a single article. I can think of examples across several articles, in fact there are examples all over the constitition.
Article IV aside another is Article 10, which restricts the ability of the federal government to suspend habius corpus. In fact there is probably an example of a limitation of the governments rights in every, or at least most, articles, at least in some form.
While that does get the general gist of it I want to point out, the constitution, even without considering the amendments including the bill of rights, lists both the powers of the central government as well as things it can not do in quite a few places. The idea that it exclusdes limitations in its power (and that is solely done int he bill of rights) isnt correct.
But that is a minor enough detail.
@Pat in early 1900s in Massachusetts people who refused too take the small pox vaccine could be fined. This was fought and went all the way up to the supreme court which rules the fine was legal and constitutional.
While I strongly disagree with this ruling, and while the spirit of the Constitution in my opinion implies this should be illegal. Sadly nothing explicit is stated and the supreme court has clearly ruled that such mandates are, sadly, legal.
I'd imagine thats far more draconian than vaccine passports, which also absolutely should be illegal, though I wouldnt argue it on explicit constitutional terms.
