on: Constitutionally, Religious Gatherings Must Enjoy the Same Rights as Protests
If the reason for banning minyanim was to prevent loss of life, that same argument can be made for allowing protests, to prevent loss of life.

on: Huawei hid business operation in Iran after Reuters reported links to CFO
That is not atypical - countries can and should protect their interests and the interests of their citizens (see GDPR).
Huawei wanted to play both sides, and by doing so, opened themselves up to these charges. They were under no obligation to use the US financial infrastructure, and only through its use did they become covered by its laws.

Since when do banks criminally charge people?
Why is it an insane idea in 2020 for a country to criminally charge those who violate it's laws?

Did Tim Cook's daughter lie to Bank of China about those sales? Is Tim Cook majority shareholder of Apple?
This is false equivalency.
The US won't stand idly by while China undermines it's interests on the back of it's financial system.

You're conflating criminal law with civil law.
Besides this, the US makes it's financial infrastructure available to those who play by its rules. Your argument about how dare the US seek criminal charges against those who utilize that infrastructure is completely missing the point.

on: To Make Police Accountable, End Qualified Immunity
So your definition of unharmed is somewhere between unharmed, and the beating by the Chicago transport cop of a physician on a plane.
We're talking apples and oranges, HarryHirsh, and I don't think you're willing to view this discussion in good faith. Good day.

This is not unharmed. You clearly knew about the case yet you deliberately obfuscated the facts until you were called out on it.
Instead of backpedaling own up to why you would try to distort the facts.
This is not to say the fellow with the bow and arrow isn't a complete imbecile, and didn't deserve what was coming. On that I have no view.

on: CEO of Banjo admitted to being a Neo-Nazi skinhead in his youth
Are you suggesting this founder should have been more public about his past? Based on what is being reported he seems to have pulled himself up by his bootstraps and made something of himself under terrible circumstances. He has clearly done good and that is what people will judge.
His bad decision doesn't define him, yet you would have him tell everyone so that he reaches your bar of being "open and remorseful."
