Even in your made up scenario it doesn’t prove the negative. Maybe your mind reading didn’t work because Apple has a mind wiping device that made them forget. Maybe the crystal ball didn’t work because Apple made an even more powerful “crystal ball blocking” device. You can’t prove that’s not what’s really happening.
So no, you in fact can’t prove a negative.
I couldn’t source the 48.5 billion for personnel number. I’m seeing a total budget increase for ICE to 30 billion. But still a large number for sure. But that’s total budget, not just personnel.
But look, I agree with the sentiment. I’d rather this money be spent on teachers too. I’m just not convinced that the numbers, as presented in the meme, are meaningful.
I don’t agree with the guy, but it is worth noting that there are around 21k ICE agents, vs 3.8 million teachers.
That extra funding would probably spread a little thin when you’re sharing it with over 100x the number of people.
Look, rawstory is a rag, no question. But they literally embedded the video of the sermon. Literally a video of the events in question.
You can hardly argue they’re misrepresenting things when you can literally see the thing yourself.
Like, what better source than the actual video of the event could you possibly want?
There isn’t, because the source is his ass.
This was a pastor in Indiana during a sermon that was live-streamed on Facebook. So, like, funded by a PAC in what way exactly?
No PAC is mentioned in the article at all, much less a Chick-fil-A backed one. And this isn’t even tied to anything that would require any funding anyway.
I’m no Chick-fil-A apologist, but like, the idea that this is some secretive super-PAC that Chick-fil-A is using to fund pastors calling for the death of gay people is some Q-Anon level nonsense.
Yeah, that’s what I told my doctor when he said I didn’t have unicorn pox. He was like, “that’s not a real thing, and if it was I’d have heard of it,” and I told him he was just an arrogant jerk. He doesn’t know all the diseases, just cause he’s a doctor.
