    The burden of proof (Latin: onus probandi, shortened from Onus probandi incumbit ei qui dicit, non ei qui negat – the burden of proof lies with the one who speaks, not the one who denies) is the obligation on a party in a dispute to provide sufficient warrant for its position.

    Lol, yeah… And I am denying your and the administrations claim that this is a legal use of the US military. I’m not making an affirmation as I have no power to order the US military to do anything.

    Providing transportation for other federal agencies is a lawful use of military equipment under 10 U.S. Code § 2642(a)(3):

    Ahh yes, they’re only transporting ice agents right … It’s not like there are civilians on the plane who may or may not have been given due process.

    The problem is that you don’t even consider the cargo humans.

      Moving the goal posts, yet again.

      If ICE is violating due process, that is for the courts to decide and issue sanctions. That hasn’t happened, as of this comment, there is nothing about these flights that are illegal.

      ICE requests transport and the military provides it under 10USC2642. That makes the Air Force’s transportation legal which is what the entire post is about.

      🙄

      Ah yes, ad hominem. Nothing says ‘I have run out of arguments’ like name-calling. I’m blocking you now.

        Btw, attempting to frame everything as a logical fallacy isn’t a fucking harry potter spell that automatically wins an argument. For it to be considered an actual logical fallacy the claim has to be logically flawed.

        Meaning that for me to “attempt to move the goal post” means that my argument needs to shift in an illogical way as a way to confuse or obscure the original intent. If the argument adds or further expands the original claim then it’s just adding to the body of evidence.

        An ad hominem isn’t just calling someone a bad name, it’s an argument based on calling someone a bad name. As in don’t listen to this guy, he’s an idiot. I’m just calling you an idiot because I think you have reddit brain and it’s upsetting.

        A rebuttal isn’t a logical fallacy you dolt. They just aren’t transporting federal agents they are transporting prisoners, which the military isn’t allowed to do.
