Arguably, everything can be abused. You can arguably use a harmless-looking spoon to cause someone harm. The lone argument that something can be abused is not necessarily valid, since arguably anything and everything can be abused if you put your mind to something.
That said, it will be more aimed toward people asking to prove double negatives and the like.
For example, if you told someone you experienced a sneezing fit as a child, you can neither prove nor disprove that experience. And someone repeatedly baiting someone to prove it and then using the lack of evidence in that experience as their "proof" that it didn't happen, would be trolling.

It's a bill. Legislation gets docket numbers when filed before being assigned bill numbers.

We will not hear about the guard whose wife needs a kidney, so he beats potential donors until they volunteer. Or the warden getting kickbacks. Or the inmate who dies of an infection from bad care after donating. It's not acceptable to put people in this position while they are in the state's care.

I do not understand the no paywall site rule. Although some information is really available through government sites, etc., the reality is much of the information about Massachusetts can be found in the Boston Globe or local newspapers, such as the Berkshire Eagle. The dissemination of information from these sources is important in discussions in a free and open society. Dissemination of information that not everyone may have immediate access to but is verifiable is important for keeping us all informed. I would also point out that everyone in Massachusetts does has access to a version of many of these newspapers, such as the Boston Globe, the Boston Herald, the Sun, The Sentinel etc. through the Boston Public Library e-newspaper collections, or through the Boston Public Library access to press reader, although it is not as easy to get to the information as the direct link paywalled link. I agree that random paywalled sitd should not be cited here, but I would really like you to reconsider the ability to cite and link to Massachusetts newspapers and major newspapers such as the Wall Street Journal, York Times and Washington Post.

Health care in prisons is notoriously bad. We should avoid doing anything to prisoners that increases their risk of infection.

I'm no conservative, but it was authored by two democrats, one of which is attempting to sell this as a "progressive" bill to "restore bodily autonomy"

You would be surprised to learn where some of the organs come from and the people they come from. There are a lot of drug overdose deaths that the families donate organs.

Yes, they were going to terminate my Mass Health coverage. I not only received the letter but was told the same thing over the phone by a supervisor. I never got any letters explaining COVID protections. During COVID there was no RX copays and there has been for sometime now.

I remind you about the misinformation and no trolling rule. If you want to be banned, keep going.

Feb is on average warmer than january
Edit: I guess people like downvoting facts... Here's climate data for Worcester, for example: Worcester Climate
I invite you to link me to any city's climate data in MA that shows Feb is colder than Jan.

This needs more awareness. The CCP encourages forced organ harvesting/donation

Being incarcerated for more than 2 days is usually a rule out for organ donation because the risk of Hep C is so high. Wonder how this would even work

What do you mean? You deleted a number of comments inexplicably from your post the other day welcoming yourself as a mod. Comments you seemed to just simply disagree with…
