Twain is my political spirit animal.
Yep, Twain strikes again.
I don't want to really think about this one because I know the answer and it's not good.5

I think he may have out cynic's Ambrose Bierce in this category
deventually
I like his opinions

Sometimes I see old quotes about how awful Congress is, and it makes me feel less like we're teetering on the precipice of doom.
TheOnlySabrun
Mark Twain flaming the Congress
kyschlagel

Don't worry, he didn't really care for pretty much anyone in a place of a authority.

"I never said all the things that I said." - Mark Twain, probably.

My uncle passed away last month and left me two first edition books from Mark Twain. Not worth a tinkers damn but its still historical.

I'm a direct descendant of Samuel Clemens, I didn't realize he was world famous until highschool, my whole childhood was filled with 1/2
DangerIsMyUsername
2/2 stories about him that I didn't appreciate until much later, I understood he was famous, I just didn't realize how famous

Always upvote Mr. Clemens
NovellvsCisco
Had to +1 for you knowing mark twain wasn't his real name.
yehaaa6
I remember reading a book in about 5th grade about him, and it started with Sam Clemens. I was confused.

Ron Swanson reminds me of Mark Twain
goflyblind

Oh you sassy Mark Twain
TooLazyToDoThat
Correct me if I'm wrong, I think he didn't agree with congress but that's a wild guess!
Dayspring23
His argument about distinctly native criminal class... One of Canada's senators on trial for theft pled guilty to rape and assault. His 1/2
GreaterDog
Story I'm reading says he was acquitted of sexual assault and was pleading guilty to battery and cocaine possession. Is that correct?
Dayspring23
Acquitted via plea deal. In exchange for pleading guilty to battery, they'd change the charge to battery instead of rape/sexual assault.
ostiniatoze
He must have had a terrible lawyer.
Nalianna
surprised that the victim doesn't have to pay him damages.
Dayspring23
penalty that the prosecution is requesting is that he do no jail time, no probation, no community service and have no criminal record. 2/2
soso456
he raped seeds and stole a heart?
walnutbreath
So THAT'S why they put the Florida teams in the Atlantic Division. Now it makes sense.
PMMeYourAttention
It's Canada, guys, I'm sure he apologized.
jordancoleshnh
He did
Jdonkay
Uhhh.... That is ridiculous
Dayspring23
Basically, they're pushing for 100% nothing but a criminal record, but the type that gets expunged once one's time is served. So in 1/2

other words, effectively immediately since they want no time to be served. 2/2

I can't seam to find this story quickly, where did you read it?
Dayspring23
Google Patrick Brazeau.
Donnicton
On top of that, not even have to say sorry. Truly a monster among men.
Slimulus
Wait... He's on trial for theft but pled guilty to rape and assault?
Dayspring23
Multiple senators are being charged with misappropriating funds-like hundreds of thousands of dollars each. His attacks are a separate thing
Shelest
"Oh, yeah you meant confess to THAT? How is that even a crime, I'm with the senate, we printed those money?"
Slimulus
Haha my original thought process.
wallaceericson
Thats not Duffy is it?
Dayspring23
Brazeau; one of the other senators who haven't gone on trial yet until the Duffy portion is completely over. Plead guilty, gets sent free.
ImGunnaGoGetMeSomeButterflyPoon
I could be wrong here... But I think Twain didn't really like congress.
admiralhipper
Or Jane Austen! He's my 2nd favorite American ever.
WorldsSmallestMegaDick
He was probably pretty bitter after his good friends at standard oil were broken up by the government.
