Yeah, I do, because it makes no sense. Which you probably realized when you tried to type up an explanation. Pretty hard to do when something doesn't make sense, ennit?
you are telling me right here right now you have never heard the term possession is 9/10 of the law? 😕

But if it is such a common saying I am sure you will have no trouble whatsoever explaining its meaning, right?
You know random phrases don't pass as valuable arguments 'round here.

You asked when you stole. I told you that you admitted to stealing (by definition, alas not by acknowledgment) before.
Originally posted by Bardock42Hey, it's not my fault you've never heard the phrase before. It basically means that if someone finds a 20, and someone else says it's theirs, and the police are called, the mere fact that the person who found the cash is in possession of it works towards their favor.

Are you saying now you never downloaded and it was just to bait AC? Never downloaded music illegally?
Originally posted by Bardock42Because I didnt steal it. I found it.
Interesting. How does that change that you stole it factually?
Are you saying now you never downloaded and it was just to bait AC? Never downloaded music illegally?I have before, just not near as much as I let on.
Now, are we gonna continue this dance from now on? something tells me yes.

No, we've been through this. You stole it. You don't like being called a thief, but you are one. Good, end of this story.

No, don't need to continue it. You just admitted you stole, again. Point is really proven beyond any doubt.

RJ, the issue with you is that you gave us a clear cut scenario in which we'd KNOW who owned the money and that you told me who it was.
Now you're trying to squirm out of it to make yourself look less like a thief. You've admitted to stealing music, whether you like it or not, that makes you a thief. My only issue with you is that you will not admit it.
Not sure why you are acting like I'm trying to engage Operation: Desert Storm on you, I'm just pointing things out you aren't willing to admit but are true. You have stolen, that would make, or HAVE MADE, you a thief.
You said you knew who the money belonged to, now you're saying suspect. The two are opposites.

It was a hooker.

Now answer the question I threw at Bardock:
have you ever been walking along, seen something, anything lying on the ground, picked it up and put it in your pocket?
Rogue Jedi:

Rogue Jedi:
It was a hooker.
the welsh one:
a hooker dropped $20?
Rogue Jedi:
yup. thats my gas money now.
There's no "I suspect." there. There IS "It was a hooker." and "Yup." when asked if a hooker dropped $20.
No need to keep squirming. You always do it, get cornered and rather than admit wrong, you just start questioning the other person.

No, I just apply terms correctly.

Not only did that prove my point that you'd rather weasel and ask questions than admit wrong, then ask questions, but I've already answered it before, and told you I wouldn't. Bardock hasn't, ask him.
I'm so puzzled as to why despite overwhelming proof, you're acting like you meant "Suspected." all along.
