Canada's Truck Convoy to Protest Mandate

You in no way have tried to skip a step. If that was your goal you could’ve made this statement 12 hours ago.

What’s your consistent stance here? Freeze the accounts of both (the thing you’ve been claiming you don’t support? Freeze neither?
You're simply wrong. My whole objective of the question was to establish a foundation. I do it all of the time.
My stance has always been that donors should not have their assets frozen - especially without fair warning.
 
Once again, I appreciate your consistency. But what you are saying is that a person should knowingly be allowed to continue committing a crime for which he has been arrested and waiting to be tried. Not many are going to follow that "logic".
So no bail ever? That would be allowing someone to continue committing their crimes.

There is absolutely no way you would have ever been comfortable with Trump seizing or freezing the violent BLM accounts. No way what so ever. And if you cant be comfortable with the opposition having and using the power you shouldnt be ok with your side having or using the power, or any example of it.

Going forward, you might just skip analogies.
Should non-violent participants in the convoy protests have their assets seized, frozen, or be arrested? Just looking for intellectual consistency.
If they continue to break the law after multiple warnings. But I would prefer they just be arrested.

I've answered the same question about 20 times now.
 
You, as always, get so caught up in the trivial, maybe it's because you can't understand the larger point being made,
That's rich. Untrue and void of any integrity. But rich.

We have a long history of me trying to lead you to the big points of your logic, arguments, and ideals, while you retreat to minutia in efforts to escape the otherwise inescapable.

You do so so that you can end things by arguing minutia and calling me concrete brained with the inability to comprehend your gradients...i.e the minutia you take every arguments to.

Unless you're a commie fascist, or a real life terrorist, how bought not at all.
 
So you support funding terrorism? Or you support freezing the accounts of donors (something you’ve claimed not to support multiple times)?
I do not support funding terrorist organizations. The complication arises in how we define terrorist organizations. Once we have defined and labeled an organization as terrorist, it should be clearly stated and understood that funding those organizations is illegal and anyone doing so will have their assets frozen and be arrested.
So no - I do not support freezing the assets of people funding the truckers at this point.
And yes - I would have supported freezing the assets of people who were funding ISIS in 2002.
 
Yes and for non violent alleged offenses it's wrong.
lol....there are loads of non-violent crimes where the person is arrested and locked up.
Possession of child pornography. Failure to pay child support. Vandalism. Theft. Robbery.
 
That those people are rightfully (in the opinion of pretty much everyone but you) arrested and locked up (temporarily) when caught.

That is not what we're talking about and you damn well know it. We're talking about bail and how people are held without it or it's set too high so that they cannot bail out. Bail should be reserved for the alleged violent offenders or with multiple convictions and everyone else released on their own recognizance.

Are you saying that you feel the truckers should be officially listed as a terrorist organization, and then it would be OK to freeze the assets of their supporters?

No we are not. That is exactly what I was talking about. I 100% agree that bail should be higher for violent offenders and flight risks.
 
It's useless to try and have a discussion with you.
Why, because it doesn't go your way?
You claim people cannot be punished without being convicted. That's absurd - it rightfully happens all of the time.
You agreed that being arrested and detained was punishment.
Freezing assets can be just as temporary and punitive as arresting and temporarily detaining.

I'm not dishonest (complete misunderstanding on your part) and my tap dancing is moderate at best.

You guys just have a hard time breaking out of your black or white views and seeing gray. Often times I have to take a circuitous route in getting you there.

So if the government gives me fair warning about donating to GiveSendGo to support striking US farmers - then the can freeze my assets?

Sounds like a wonderful place to live.

He would be up in arms if Trudeau was freezing accounts of donors to liberal organizations.

I've said repeatedly I do not believe their supporters should have their assets frozen - and certainly never taken.
You didn't answer the question, Mr. Bojangles.

So, at what point do you believe their supporters should have their accounts frozen and assets taken?

Youi said that you do not believe they should at this point.
So no - I do not support freezing the assets of people funding the truckers at this point.

I'm just curious at what point you believe they should be.
