That is incorrect (Via Cornell Law School) Gravitycollapse Feb 2020 #39

He is a lawyer! Most lawyers understand what an arrest is! Nt USALiberal Feb 2020 #44

Still semantics ... important part is Biden's courage uponit7771 Feb 2020 #47

And yet not courageous enough to write in his autobiography. jimfields33 Feb 2020 #53

But Andrew Young and Charles Diggs dutifully went through a "colored" door jberryhill Feb 2020 #54
