your brain processing a moment does not dictate the existence of the concept. The paradox is really more about man's perception of the concept of present than it is about the actual existence of the present. How man perceives the present is not real. Even in their explanations of the paradox they essentially acknowledge it's existence
You have existed at all points of time during your life, at some point all those points will have been the present, no matter how infinitely small you want to make that point, you can divide the points infinitely but never into nothing

It is my right to answer their questions as it is not to answer. My experience tells me not being difficult gets you a warning. In fact I can think of at least 2 occasions where telling them where I was coming from and where I was going got me out of the situation
As mentioned, this is for something like a traffic violation. In this instance if it is your goal to "express your rights" by not answering questions then do it, if your goal is to not get a ticket, then perhaps try a different approach
I just approachthe situation how I would want to be treated if I were a cop and wanted to go home and the work day to just be over.

I will be honest, most of the time I just try to be as pleasant as possible and have even gotten into some conversations with some because I assume for the most they are dealing with assholes on a daily basis.
Keep in mind when I get pulled over I know it is for something minor like speeding or stop sign missed. Pretty much has always ended in a warning, with the exception of those damn speed traps in north louisiana nowhere parishes.
I dont feel like it would be productive to be passive agressive or try to prove a point for something as minor as a traffic violation, that is if your goal is to go home with no ticket and move on like it never happened. If you have another goal then I guess you do you

I need my social media for work
But I have successfully shifted my algorithims to mostly show me happy stories and stories of people doing good deeds for strangers. Took quite a few weeks to push most of the filth out and one still will get through on occasion

I lived in that exact area, based on the missing buildings, it’s pretty damn old
The point still remains that it is not in the “middle” of the cbd
Skyline has changed in that area alone within just the past 5 years

She'll still be criminally responsible or she wouldn't be fit to stand trial.
You can be fit to stand trial but still determined to be criminally insane at the time of the act itself was committed
Unless i am misinterprettng what you are saying, which is possible
quote:The thread is not about the degree of guilt based on her mental state. That is what the actual case is about and that is what should be being debated and that is what the court will determine
No one here is saying, “Being a mommy is hard, so murdering your children is understandable.” That is a caricature of what people are actually discussing.
The question is whether severe mental illness affected Lindsay Clancy’s criminal responsibility at the time of the killings. Her intentional physical actions are obviously relevant evidence, but they do not by themselves resolve whether her perception of reality was so impaired that she met the legal standard for lack of criminal responsibility. That is precisely why there is a trial.
The thread is about the unusual upswell of support and defense for this woman despite the grevious nature of her actions. So much so that despite the fact that she admits to the act and her defense team admits to the act, the support is still trying to blame the husband and "you will not convince them otherwise". Basically this thread is about an observable social phenomenon surrounding this case
quote:It is my understanding that it is not her defense team but social media influencers and supporters playing fast and loose with the "facts" that have caused this belief. The defense is not arguing the husband did it and they are not trying to make that case, they are simply making the case for lack of criminal responsibility
Additionally, it is the job of her defense to create reasonable doubt and based on what people here are saying: They’re clearly doing their job. Some comments seem to believe the husband may have done it.

possibly so, but that is also the actions of an exhausted but still reasonable and functioning human being

ve been there when my kids were babies- couldnt fathom figuring out food, didnt want to leave the house, but didnt want to be alone with the kids even longer, so you google how long itll take for him to get back so you can mentally prepare.

there is something going on different socially with this case and I am not down the rabbit hole enough to know what that is
This level of support is very different than I have seen in past similar cases, but it seems the one unifying thread in anything I have seen on this case is the husband. My only guess is that whatever the reason the support is so much higher, it involves him

I am not saying there is no sympathy to be had from this story, the sympathy I have is just not for her
quote:
But because I’m slow this Friday afternoon let’s discuss: I believe the flaw in your reasoning (correct me if I’m wrong) is that sympathy = justification. Which (at least for me personally) it is not.
My argument is that sympathy must be gauged on the entirety of the situation. You cannot separate the person from the disorder from the act. You take it all into account and determine if the circumstances are worthy of sympathy
for instance, I can sympathize with the thousands of women that go through post-partum a year and suffer through it and and do not harm their children.
I cannot sympathize with the woman that goes through it and murders her chidlren while doing so. Just as I assume most would not sympathize with a severely depressed father murdering his children or his wife, it deserves no sympathy. Society rarely gives these people sympathy and I see no reason why the instance on this current case is an different
You can recognize the realities of mental illness without sympathizing with the perpetrator. You can feel sadness for the situation, you can view the situation as a social commentary on society and life, you can do that without sympathizing with the perpatrator
I feel like the term sympathy is being used very loosely by a lot of people
quote:
Two things can be true for what it’s worth. You can acknowledge PTSD/PPD/mental health issues are real and sympathize with that while also believing that someone deserves to be in jail. It’s not a defense.
Yes, you can feel sympathy for those that suffer from mental disorders including anxiety and depression
However, sympathy is not something that is static and can be lost. Some actions can be so grevious that all sympathy is lost, and I can't think of a more grevious one. There is no way I can sympathisize on any level with someone that has murdered their children. Depression, even severe depression does not meet the threshhold of generating enough sympathy to overcome digust, disgust replaces sympathy at that point, sympathy is a non-factor
if the disorder does not justify the act, how can you sympathize? You should only be able to sympathize with those individuals that act in reasonable accordance for a someone in that situation, murdering your children is not one of those situations. Which is why her only defense will be one that does not involve reason aka insanity
I am not following the case at all. Based on who i see posting these things I assume they are getting most of the "evidence" from social media influencers that like to talk about unusual or outlandish crimes
I have seen the saying that the they think the dad actually did it. That he drugged her, killed the kids, and convinced her that she did it. That she can't remember not actually doing it due to being drugged so she thinks she did it
