  1. yeah, when you call out the radicals they usually come out and try to derail the topic. i try not to give the desired attention as its usually a waste of time. not like i can have a reasonable discussion or change the mind of somone who includes "filthy bigot" as a predisposition. i can imagine he fine tooth combed my post again, saw nothing more to latch onto after he cherry picked topics of his choice, and will not reply again. i went to buffalo public schools. if this is true its somewhat personal. i guess that's why im more inclined to engage with posters i normally wouldn't on this one.
  2. did i give any assumptions i agree with banning the morning after pill? i specifically said theres a middle ground. there are people advocating late term abortions under right to choose!! the hell are you reading. that second paragraph shows your a zealot who pushes everyone into a box but talks about demonizing. i clearly stated these are RADICAL positions. but proving my point for me is a good thing.
  3. i didn't think it was that bad. lol i agree with most of what you say but your ideas are coming from a adult who has lived experiences not the children its aimed at. im all for inclusionary lessons about anti racism and anti bullying but there just seems to always be a extremist viewpoint that is getting injected into the things most people agree with. the normal citizens do not seem to identify it and fight against it. anti racism seems to have to include demonizing a race and ironically promoting segregation. it does not need those things to be successful at creating a better society trans rights seems to have to include removing scientific understanding of 2 genders and terms like mother, father ect ect womens right to choose now means terminating a fully formed human with pain receptors up and until it is birthed. when did the debate about life shift to that extreme? i find that as crazy as stopping all rights to choose and sending women back to horrific stories of back alley doctors. there's a middle ground being against illegal immigration somehow equates to racism. but immigration reform is most likely neccessary if it has become overtly difficult. being proud of america and its values suddenly became holding up a white supremist patriarchy? if all these extremes would be denounced i think we would be on a better path to at least be able to compromise but sadly i think its turned into all or nothing proposition from both sides. your either fully on board or not at all. we as citizens have to fig out how to tell our leaders we want to compromise...but im not sure that is even true anymore. 😔
  4. i presented a 3 hour documentary on the topic from professors that were in a school where this was taught. they are giving their own personal accounts. it doesnt get much more in depth then that. this may be a extreme circumstance...but it did happen by eveyone "screaming and moaning" do you mean this forum..that you made the fourth reply to? or twitter which is nothing but those things mentioned. im not seeing allot of screaming here. just giving their opinions on the topic for the most part...out of the 6 replies. if you want the story as in a news format here you go. https://www.city-journal.org/buffalo-public-schools-critical-race-theory-curriculum other then that i guess we will see how long it takes for a full unbiased, in depth story on a specific school district takes before people are able to discuss it.
  5. critical race theory was brought into schools a long time ago. it made the news for alittle while but many may have missed it. i encourage everyone to take some time out of your day and watch this documentary on it. its free. costs you nothing and is told by a teacher that, remember, worked in the most libral culturally sensitive place in our country. i have no children and if you do, you owe it to yourself to see the other side of what this has the ability to do. you may notice some similarities with recent events. part 1 part 2 part 3
  6. you have to include whats happened during the pandemic. governments have historically used time of crisis/fear to whittle away at freedom and cease more control. its at this time people have to stay hyper vigilant. im not talking strictly democrats...for instance, see the patriot act and listen to what snowden says it entails i agree with you that small buisness needs help but unfortunately its too little to late for many. the fact so many were arbitrarily closed with no guidelines to stay open is a direct power grab. like i said the basic human right to earn a living taken away and for many, its not coming back. the hypocracy of allowing big box stores to remain open while funneling all revenue in their direction when there was no evidence it slowed any spread. there was info later on where places like barber shops showed miniscule spread. this was how small buisness and middle class were targeted for no legitimate reason. hindsight is not making that reasoning, as many were protesting these truths a very long time ago. as for religion. many were closed. jewish temples were overtly targeted with padlocks in NYC. yet thousands protested in much larger groups. both are under rights to peacefully assemble correct? there is also the division of church and state that was trampled. not sure how the two are any different. luckly the supreme court stepped in...it the only reason both ruling are being laxed, under direct court order. unfortunatly you don't seem to understand how deep censorship has gotten. i dont think i can tell you just how many people have been "cancelled" and lost thier livelihoods for simply speaking their own mind on a topic that does not fit the narrative. not spewing conspiracies, not attacking anyone yet those that have made direct death threats are perfectly fine. promient people who called for the killing of children (covington). antifa who can and STILL organize to this day on platforms. this isn't about terms of service or consequences for wrong actions. its not even close to equal. this is about steering society into the condemnation of those who don't agree. say its a private company and go elsewhere and when you do.. they attack it with ( a place where HATE SPEECH is allowed to thrive ). label anything hate speech and its easy to shut things down. wallstreet bets were labeled all those thing...even russians! to try and get them to stop forcing hedgefunds to pay on their shortselling, eventually they just unlawfully stopped the ability to buy the stock. that's not the america i knew and it definitely is not a example of having "the same rights no more or less"
  7. are you a small buisness owner? i think they have the right to provide for their families and not be arbitrarily shut down under threats fines and padlocks. no scientific evidence, complying with cdc guidelines and hypocritical big box stores open right next door...as a start losing everything you built up over your lifetime and no way to put food on the table might have people worked up are you religious? did you want to peacefully assemble to practice your faith last year? even though it is in the constitution and other groupings were allowed to group as they pleased? do you think you have a right to protect yourself and your belongings from others without prosecution? how many were denied that right last year? can you enjoy freedom of speech? do you think that extends to others who don't have your political or social ideaology? do you think all those that lost their livelihoods because a mob decided they "deserved" it? would you like to read a book on the negative effects transgenderism is having on teenagers? the ACLU (they used to stand up for free speach) tryed and was successful at blocking its sale for a time. would you like to talk about or obtain information on covid medically and origins that is not confirmed with the mainstream, how about elections? see how far the convo goes before its censored. would you like to buy stock in a company called gamestop? it was perfectly legal..nope. shut down. but only if your hurting the hedgefund gov financiers. would you like to use a buisness service alternative to twitter. a legitamate competitor that broke no laws but was still shut down by major tech monopolies under lies that it promoted extremism..while facebook where the groups really formed was unmentioned and untouched. soon we will be talking about gun rights..thats coming. im glad you still have all your freedoms and rights but look outside yourself to see whats happening. these were just a few things i guess we took for granted 5 10 years ago. should i go on?
  8. this one im alittle torn over. there is no way the min wage comes close to allowing someone the ability to care for oneself let alone anyone else. i think a jump that high is definatly destructive to small buisness, brings all other wages down and will quickly be nullified by inflation. so anyone cheering this on. youll be talking about low wages but also higher unemployment very shortly. but i also see how companies are using the gov to sublimate their workforce on the taxpayers backs. welfare, food stamps, heap ect ect. there's a unspoken agreement where workers and companies are taking advantage of social services so incentive by both sides to not offer "full" time or simply not enter the workforce is pretty high regardless. so whats a good solution? alot of bootstrapers say get a skill to not work min wage. most of those people have good jobs and many i talk to are from the older generation. a good paying factory job with benefits, pension was waiting with your hs diploma. those are pretty rare today. now higher education isnt the answer unless youd like a house payment..to get a job. so whats left? picking a trade school, join the military or be connected enough to be given a opportunity your not really "qualified" for. thats about it.
  9. alot of qbs hitting the market. josh has dodged the injury bullet matrix style with his style of play i think we need to upgrade the backup spot because as of now josh goes down our season ends. thanks barkley time to look elsewhere.
  10. i could of sworn the fbi was arresting people all over the country, are they not asking questions? people are getting cancelled simply for being in the area having nothing to do with breaking the law or storming the capital while others are being placed on no fly lists as investigations continue. the person everyone feels is responsible just went through a impeachment trial where any and all evidence could have been presented and he is also possibly facing criminal charges from states. banks have closed his accounts, contracts have been negated, blacklists have been made with anyone he was involved with. yeah um a new commission is needed to uncloak this organization shrowded in mystery. 🙄 maybe if they left parler up...they could just READ about it!? yes? no?maybe? that's a no because most the groups formed on FACEBOOK! and facebook does not track a log information so its gone forever. lol hey LA times there a little place close to you were groups are still openly organizing and causing havoc. latest one was blocking police from going to emergency calls, emergency calls are kind of important to regular people. they dont get 24 hour national guard watches and walls. if we learned anything from texas recently is snow storms are minor innconviences and if not, they are just peasants anyhow..no rush. by all means the democrats should finish what they are doing first. https://www.lacortenews.com/n/antifa-blocks-seattle-pd-from-responding-to-emergencies-with-snow-barrier
  11. i love the argument that this government is taken by surprise by anyone. if you believe snowden and anything in the patriot act then they can tap into any phone text or website. yet.. "what is this parlar app?" "is this where the PLANS were made?" " we must BEGIN to watch for this for a protest organized by the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. so either they fully knew about EVERY riot, every plan and every participant and allowed it..again or the fbi/cia was caught off guard and has been proven to be the most inept organizations when it comes to domestic security on the planet.
  12. in that regard i understand more clearly what your saying. in my opinion a policy to force the sick into those facilities made no sense then, and none now which is why certain people were declaring they wanted investigations early last year and were ignored by those in the media, until now. there is a picture of a sheet on a overpass "cuomo killed my mother" as early as may. again this was incentivised! the nursing homes were used as quarantine facilities you speak of, which is the worst possible selection that anyone at any time regardless of situation could choose. if there was some proof that there was no other facility that would not accept 5000 dollars to house these people together then i guess he had no other choice, but i don't think that is true and his coverup may mean we may never know. to chalk this up to desperate times desperate measures or ignorance is a mistake. i have no professional understanding of viruses and without hindsight i could say that i questioned that decision, as did many others. i can't prove it but there is a basic level of understanding that was as dangerous as it gets when dealing with a pandemic that was obviously killing the elderly at high rates. when it comes to asymptomatic people allowed to go home this is different from the topic of forcing them into nursing homes. this is still the practice of today so advising them to stay away from vulnerable or offering a alternative, like the ship or center as temporary quarantine places for people with "one bathroom" ect ect SHOULD be the practice, regarless if they knew if it spreads. 5000 dollars pays for alot of options other then nursing homes regardless. you choose to expose a vulnerable family member thats on your conscience. no forcing, no "mah freedoms" and no hindsight required to keep people from spreading. but they FORCED people from OUTSIDE nursing homes to go there as well and the homes were happy to take the money sentancing those people to death. if you feel the decision was just another blunder in the large assortment during this pandemic your well articulated and we simply disagree. if you include his coverup in this argument, the media ignoring and the blocking of investigations then that's where we severely disagree.
  13. i understand what your saying and get tough decisions have to be made but from the very beginning objective number 1 above all else should have been protect the vulnerable. even a common flu could be deadly to elderly so no new or extra info was needed to understand that introducing this to the elderly let alone FORCING by mandate was a not questionable mistake. it was a demented enforcement. not only that, they incentivized it by offering nursing homes $5000 dollars per person so young people were pushed in as well. id love to understand what lunatic science backed this decision.
  14. but my scumbag is better then your scumbag! where i find a problem is republican scumbags are ousted by mainstream media routinley and the other scumbags have been ignored which is why this "new" story is so infuriating. this story was not a secret. it was well known and is only now being investigated. I'm actually shocked that the media is in unison condemning this. even cnn with the cuomo brothers comedy hour is reporting!? maybe this will be a turning point where both sides get the same scrutiny. im actually catching some good hard questions in the wh press room lately. hopefully this trend continues as there are loads of corruption and lies to expose on both sides.
  15. so hes guilty? your judge jury and executioner on the matter of impeachment and anyone who doesn't see it your way does not have a conscience? we had a long discussion about democrats call to violence and the murder victims that resulted? have you reached a conscience on who you want to be held accountable yet? maybe i didnt make a good enough case in that thread. if you think trump is not going to pay a heavy price for what he's done then you haven't paid attention to the banks that no longer will do buisness with him. the contracts he's lost and everyone around him INCLUDING his legal team for the very impeachment you speak of abandoning (trying to) him. also lets not foget about democrats calling for "lists" to cancel, degrade and destroy anyone he has touched.. including simple supporters that had no part of insorrection. not good enough? this impeachment.. is the ultimate icing on the cake? maybe. but even if he was impeached i think he would still be used to deflect from any misdoings by the democratic party. i mean a police officer was killed..as were many this summer. a unarmed qanon woman was shot..same as a 8 year old little girl and HUNDREDS of innocent people living in abolish police zones. it can go back and forth but this thread is about cuomo. speaking of which, i think its odd you didnt touch any point about cuomo and the boat that sat empty. why. call him a evil POS that intentionally tryed to cover up his deplorable decision. its not hard. see when trump lied about covid the media was on him like locusts. how long did his lies last? im pretty sure his lies cost him the election as they were brought to light. but here we are a full year out of cuomos lies and they are just at the beginning phase of being revealed after recieving book deals, Emmy and accolades from his peers and those not paying attention. i remember those "quacks" at fox being the only media covering the story even as cuomo routinley blocked investigations. i also remember a lone banner hanging from a interstate say "cuomo killed my mother" last year in may. people in NY know. victims families knew it was a horrendous decision immediately. yet i guess that wasnt interesting to anyone in journalism to have a conscience, until of coarse, the objective was reached. theres a difference and if you dont start acknowledging it then your going to be lost in partisanship like those who defend trumps every decision. your no better..just different. why? because there is alot more to be revealed if journalist are willing to cover the other side with the same scrutiny as they covered trump. i promise this won't be the only evil that is uncovered and people defending those decisions.
  16. its very rare to have someone simply agree that their side has done horrific things. most would rather divert the conversation and play a game of "whatabout" so i give him credit for going against what he formally believed and calling it what it is. that deserves respect. in this polarized world,if we all can do that society will be on the right track again.
  17. i dont know. like i said he performed very well the year before with a aging frank gore. i think his elusiveness is a quality thats hard to replicate. speed is great but i didnt see him getting any openings that would have helped and if thats a factor i dont think moss is applying any afterburners Singletary lacks. i really dont know which direction the coaching staff would go but having a stud force that decision isnt the worst idea. i just think it can be had in other rounds or FA.
  18. yeah i agree. im fighting it on this very message board. its hard to not come off as crazy with all the lies being told in unison but like you said their are still states fighting for freedom. noone even cares that riots are still happening nightly in portland but guess what. people are fleeing those places to the places you describe. people are tuning out the superbowl as they include more social justice then entertainment...low ratings. people are watching the cdc flipflop on thier rulings and news organizations describe everything as racist sexist ect ect. courts are now beginning to step in to defend the constitution..very slowly. newsomes recall is almost 1.5 million. the medias announcement of wall street bets being "radicals" or "russians" was laughed out of the room. it takes time to wake up..ironically from the wokeness but its happening. i wish it did not take some of the blatant atrocities but how long can the murder rates rack up innocent people before you say...abolishing police was pretty stupid. how long can you advocate censorship until it eliminates a voice you think is important? how long can you listen to lies before you seek truth. how long can you watch your children and community deteriorate and think your safer for it. unfortunatly the answer is a year and counting but each one of these things a few more are snapping out of it every day. when they do and their is a understanding who the real enemies are there will be a new understanding that we are not each others....i hope
  19. i think you underestimate the pendulum. this country has routinley swung to the right and left. to much time in one direction sends it back in the other direction..case in point 8 years obama..then trump. if trump was more diplomatic and did not lean so far into the radicals side and republicans were less cowards to take on the true evident threats. ex section 230, fighting voting changes..which many of them passed.gutless. he def would have won. i think most people who aren't on twitter are tired of the constant wokeness. they also are growing pretty tired of the safety over rights that is taking place. biden is new and people see the vacine as a light at the end of the tunnel. if it goes to long where vacines are distributed but they are still locked down. biden shows himself for who he is a corrupt lifelong politician. the masses will not be compliable much longer. there will be a fast swingback and hopfully its for a populist that doesnt have the same shortcomings as trump. the new york times wrote that even france declared that the over reaching american social justice is damaging to society...and france is pretty left. that's my belief. the question you bring up is how many will not swing with it and continue to ignore the blatant censorship, lies and division to keep what is needed to amass enough power to succeed in a complete takeover. im worried to. just look at how many on here cheer it all on. but message boards are drops in the bucket to real life...thats what i hold hope for.
  20. so who do you give up on? obviously that would be a upgrade but singletary seems good in spots and moss is just a rookie. both had thier spots and im not sure which one you push down so soon.
  21. we also did well last year singletary had huge ypa, but we also seemed to use him very sparingly. maybe it is him but even moss was running into brick walls alot..only he could do alittle better to drag them for a few yards. i wouldnt hate the pick but i want the D to get playmakers again. we get the D back and our O is more then fine regardless of a nothing run scheme.
  22. this seems like a lazy take. bills couldnt run. has to be the back! couldnt be the line or scheme. cover one did a good anaylisis and do to the constant shift in o line theres somthing our coaches just didn't like. it would be great to get a upgrade at any position but i dont see rb as a top need unless it bpa
  23. what do you know of racism? im seriously asking. have you seen or felt it first hand? i grew up on the east side. i have alot of stories to tell on the matter. i also went to inner city schools on the metro straight into downtown. no nice yellow bus for me at my corner to take me directly to my schools front door. so just curious where your drawing your reference from on the topic seeing how it upsets you so much. what upsets me is its used so flippantly by these "journalists" and others that see it in harmless things. it should be mocked and discounted in these contexts EVERY SINGLE TIME and by EVERYONE yet, some are more then willing to allow others to water down the term (racism) until its unrecognizable. EVERYTHING is considered it now and you seem more then happy to allow it.
  24. keep going alot more topics. those who are not zealots need voices to unplug from the mainstream narratives of hate. it wasnt to long ago where disagreement did not make you a enemy and simply saying i think this side represents me but i also agree with you that they are not doing the right thing here.
  25. yeah ive seen that and was a big fan of Stewart. i miss him. im a big supporter of his fight for 911 workers. i didnt watch crossfire much. rising is different as its two moderate hosts together and they just present some stories from their takes. no major debates. no sensationalism and mostly agree on the foundation of the topic presented but at least you can hear some objections without the I'm absolutely right your wrong or demeaning attacks towards each other, besides towards the crazy op eds and media and corrupt government general rediculousness. here's just a random one. lots of daily topics. check it out and share if you think its ok. more views is the only thing that will change direction.
