Ergo hoc...propter hoc?
In other words, the latest 1st Amendment debate for instance.
People feel vulnerable and want to own guns. Are the guns going to protect them? I got my pistol stolen and haven't replaced it.
If we lose our Constitutional rights in the field, where we have to go to court to assert them after arrest in violation of our rights, the State will have trespassed. What about me? Do I never not break the law sometimes, even if it's an infraction? If I hold a cop to a high standard, shouldn't I require I do not break the laws either?
YES.

Erroneous Lessons in Logic
"Because of the fact, therefore because of the fact."
"No John."
"Ergo hoc propter hoc?"
"Where's your list of Latin terms huckster."
"Hey, Pele was confused too. He thought it was the shirt that was magic, made his team win."
"I knew them in high school--the Ilios program, then relearned them separately in law school, both Pepperdine and Santa Clara University School of Law.
Terms: non-sequiter logic, because x is true and y is true doesn't mean w is true, etc. Does not follow logically by induction or deduction that because x relationship is true, a related relationship might not create a domino-effect because the consequence might not follow from x as one might expect. Logic can help us discern, along with experimentation (science, logic, computer science, cognitive, HOMO DEUS, math), what logically can be understood as to follow from that variable [i.e. "y" ].

Dear #DeepWork @Calnewport, The King of Diamonds and @POTUS: Re: #disruption
Like an author seeking concentrated effort during a round-trip air flight to Tokyo to write his book, I suggest President Trump moves the White House to the Interior. Denver, for instance. Kansas City, Oklahoma City, Lincoln, NE, St. Louis could use a new white house too. Couldn't hurt. How much to build them?

Dear #CalNewport: I contend the best line in your book #DeepWork is the myelin stuff. Discipline and exercise. Fasting, where's prayer? "Meditation". #ProductiveMeditation "How 'bout busy city Hollywood?" "Hell no." @LAPD2014
Does Deep State keep information from us?
