To the contrary, human emotions are fundamental to of law. If not for feelings, we would barely need law at all. The Coase rule would do all the work.

Right, like I said, I feel like I'm a better driver after a few vodka sodas, so, if enough people agree, we should ignore the objective facts about the impact of alcohol on decision making, reaction time, etc and make drinking and driving legal, right?

Again, that's not the correct term. You feel an emotion. The term you should be using is think or believe.

The hilarious thing here is that you think you're making a good point, but you are actually nowhere even close. You're off in your own little world jerking off to hypotheticals that nobody is talking about, fundamentally misunderstanding . . . well, everything really.

Have you ever heard the expression, "corruption or the appearance of corruption"? Why exactly do you think the "appearance of corruption" is there. That phrase is standard (not always corruption -- the same standard applies to conflicts of interest, bias, impropriety etc.) and used everywhere in the law. Why is it there? Why, on your theory, would we ever care about the appearance of impropriety or conflict of interest?

It's essentially the same thing. It's a view this based on opinion, not objectivity.

So, unless you have some objective reason to show that high levels of melanin impact ability to procure an ID, it's all feelings, thinking, etc.

Who are you even talking to? There's like one other poster on this board who thinks that race is just about "melanin levels." The rest of us matured intellectually when we hit adolescence.

Race isn't a scientifically supported concept. We're supposed to follow the science, right?

I know....old habits are hard to break.

No, feeling is not the same thing g as thinking and believing. You feel an emotion. You don't feel truth.

Doesn't matter. About 40% of the country THINKS the 2020 election was stolen and mail-in ballots are a gateway to election stealing, etc. There's no more truth to that than there is truth to melanin impacting ones ability to get an ID.

It does matter because you were using the wrong term making your stupid bosiding argument.

Is this a parody post of some sort?

The "No Kings " march was not a parody post. The second part of the post was a poke at MAGAs who think there are 10 million "illegals" who are raping and murdering our women and children.

Trump suffers worldwide embarrassment as No Kings explodes outside America

More than 3,000 No Kings protest events in the United States were bolstered by activists across the world opposing Donald Trump. Rallies against the president were formed across the US, but also in Germany, Italy, and Australia. Protestors in Paris, France, were spotted holding up "Dump Trump"...

There's no bosiding. Race is an imaginary construct and melanin levels have never been shown to impact one's ability to get an ID.

You know what’s interesting? There are people of Indian descent who have higher melanin levels than people of sub-Saharan African descent.

I wonder what I’d look like with higher melanin levels. My daughter appears to have higher melanin levels than my son.

You could have a distribution channel to every bodega in Europe and I still don't think you could liquidate 12 tons of kit kats very easily.

Yeah, but American HS kids a lot more Kit Kats than European bodega customers.
 
Neither party has been on their best behavior with the country's credit line over the last 50 years, but one party claims to be the party of fiscal responsibility while simultaneously chastising the other one for being the opposite.

And here we are.
