    Very well.

Nah, you couldn’t come up with anything but posting here that you don’t like it. As per your rules, all you do is post here.

    So, no, I don’t agree. Stop lying about me.
    No, I stated I'm not discussing the other methods I use.

    Your claim is objectively baseless.

    Evidence, please.

    The burden of evidence is on the person making the claim.

    Trump is innocent until proven guilty. Of course he was impeached twice even though he was not punished for his guilt.

    Did I mention that he has multiple ongoing investigations against him? How many ongoing investigations are ongoing against local Flint officials?

    At least have the decency to pin multiple murders on the correct people. I know you really, really want to pin this on the Democrats but so far you've failed. Maybe try something else. Can I suggest Kwame Kilpatrick? Just don't deep dive too close.

    Great, so you think Trump is innocent.

    Good to know.

    Personally, I think he's a corrupt asshole, incompetent, and guilty as shit.

    As for the " murders" I have made my feelings about Snyder very well known. I'm simply showing that he's not the only one to blame, nor is his party. Shall we go over the timeline, again?

    So, still cannot find that evidence?

    You do realize this is like a person saying they won't discuss their job, and you simply assuming they have no job... right?

    I suppose it's the same as supporting Planned parenthood or BLM.

    Do you support Planned Parenthood and BLM?

    Nice to know you don't believe in due process. Although that's a government guarantee, so we're not shocked you don't like it.

    Did I mention he was impeached twice? That mean's he's guilty. Twice.

    Go ahead. The timeline doesn't help your argument.

    This isn't a court of law. We are dudes stating our opinions.

    I showed via the timeline that the city leaders did those things, and you trying to justify it.

    You agree that they willingly voted for the cheaper option, right?

    You agree that that cheaper option wasn't using corrosion inhibitors, right?

    You agree that there were then two water boilings, right?

    You agree that GM stopped using the water due to chlorine levels, right?

    You agree that they chose to then still vote to use the cheaper water, right?

    You also agree that the mayor chose to go on television and push misinformation that the water was safe, months after the EPA had tested increased lead levels in the water, right?

    Do you support them lobbying to oppose abortion restrictions, and their choice to donate to politicians and PACs? I only ask, because they've spent millions and millions on the issue.

    BLM has it's own PAC, I believe you had something to say about those...

    Yes. Unfortunately for you, we are stating opinions on things that we know that happened like the State of Michigan was in charge and regularly supplied false information. As per the timeline you posted.

    So, BLM doesn't have a PAC?

    What are they doing with all that money?

    So, can you refute those parts of the timeline, or not?

    Did those things not happen?

    Well, thanks for confirming you don't want either of those organizations spending money to lobby for causes, or spend more than $2900 on a candidate (I believe that was the total, correct me if I'm wrong).

    How is it a miss to say that I support BLM and Planned parenthood being free to lobby for their causes...

    Man, you must really hate those groups.

    It was nice of all those celebrities to give money to those causes, and it'd be a shame if people tried to bar that money from being spent on those causes.

    Multiple times already. Their actions are irrelevant because they weren't in charge and were given false information.

    If you want people to change their opinion of history maybe bring something fresh to the table? I'm sure there's something on 8chan that shows that Flint was actually Gretchen Witmer's fault and she did it to make Snyder look bad.

    So, they were just ignorant cucks in all of this?

    I'm going to go by willful actions they took... which I pointed out.

    If you are going to say that the EPA lied to the mayor, I expect some evidence.

    If you are going to say that the city leaders were lied to the entire time, I expect some evidence.

See, I don’t oppose these people lobbying the public, I just oppose their money letting them pass regulations the majority oppose. Weird how you prefer to let wealth dictate the course of our society.
    Where did I say I support those laws?

    I support people's freedom to lobby for their causes, even if I oppose their causes. That's what free speech is all about.

    I literally pointed to two very wealthy groups. If you oppose the wealthy using money to lobby, then surely you'd oppose them doing it, as well. But nah, fuck that, you just don't want those who disagree with you to be able to lobby. That's how it works, they lobby and they donate to campaigns.

    This is your argument, the burden falls on you.

    You are asking me to do your homework for you.
