Quote from: "Peaches" the president also dog-whistled for his base to go after Rep. Maxine Walters, resulting in death threats against a sitting member of congress ...
I don't approve of death threats (that is IF there really were any).  But waters said that republicans need to be harrassed to the point of being unable to go anywhere in society.  Now that fate may have befallen her.  its pretty hard to feel sorry for her that she got a taste of her own medicine.


Quote from: "Peaches"But back to those murders, did anyone notice that the Fox organization (thru Hannity) blamed them on Maxine Walters within minutes of the story breaking?  You can't make this stuff up.
 So wait, when Hannity blames Waters, its "You can't make this stuff up" level ridiculous.  BUT when multiple member of the media blame Trump, that's just fine????


Quote from: "CC"Not that reader needs prove anything but Link-less in wherever said "within minutes"??? ... "The shooting began around 2:35 pm at the Capital Gazette offices" - Fox show starts at 6.00 pm .. . kinda makes the entire post a tad suspicious, say what?

I was wondering if hannity saw journalists on the left blaming Trump so he decided to go tit for tat and blame it on Waters.

A newspaper reporter in Massachusetts resigned on Friday after falsely claiming in a tweet that the gunman who opened fire on a newsroom in Maryland a day earlier was wearing a hat bearing President Trump's campaign slogan, "Make America Great Again."[/quote]
I would think he could get a job at many other media places, most of which prioritize zealotry in getting Trump over accuracy.  Maybe Time Magazine is hiring?

Quote from: "Peaches"I completely forgot to mention, since it's not about the press but about ICE activities, that the president also dog-whistled for his base to go after Rep. Maxine Walters, resulting in death threats against a sitting member of congress ... about which the president maintains a studied silence, just as he waves off media questions about what he really thinks about the Capital paper murders.



But back to those murders, did anyone notice that the Fox organization (thru Hannity) blamed them on Maxine Walters within minutes of the story breaking?  You can't make this stuff up.

I am appalled that you deflect and indirectly defend the Ernst Rohm tactics of Trump haters like Maxine Waters.



Here's what happened recently that Wazzzup shared with us.



7 Examples from the Last Two Weeks That Show How Dangerous and Insane (trumphaters) Have Become

https://pjmedia.com/trending/7-examples">https://pjmedia.com/trending/7-examples ... ve-become/



7. New York Mayoral Candidate Cynthia Nixon Calls for Us to Get Rid of ICE



6. Protesters Harass Republicans in Public

Stephen Miller was harassed in a restaurant by a protester. And the D.C. chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America screamed at Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen until she left a restaurant. Protesters also gathered outside of Nielsen's house screaming: "No justice, no sleep." Screaming protesters also harassed and spit on Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi at a Mr. Rogers documentary of all places. Liberals seemed to overwhelmingly approve of all this harassment.



5. Sarah Huckabee Sanders Gets Kicked out of The Red Hen (and then the owner of the red hen and her mob ran across the street and harassed Sanders family at another restaurant)



4. Maxine Waters Calls for Public Harassment of Trump Officials



3. Ice Agents Are Doxxed



2. Haley Hinds Is Falsely Accused



1. Peter Fonda Issues Threats Against Trump's Family

After making these comments, Fonda's Twitter account was not suspended. The movie he has coming out was not pulled. For the most part, he received praise from other liberals for his comments.

 

I never thought Peaches would condone the Trump haters calls for harassment and violence. Now that you have shown your true colours, any credibility you had is now history.

Yes



And the trouble is, often their tantrums are rewarded (or at least they are not called out enough) so there will be more and bigger tantrums in the future.

I'm surprised he or she came back at all. He or she did not find us in the first place - long ago an extremely frustrated former islam-friendly member, knowing he was a good googler and not too bad with words, openly said she brought him here "to fix me"  



The twit tried to convince us he was an Ex Spurt on islam .... even went so far as to rearrange his desk and showed a pic of it with what he proclaimed were "my islam study books" .... damn, that was funny  :laugh:



Its  exper"teese" was merely lots of googling  ... knew little to nothing on the subject ...  beyond the results of google searches that is



It is and always was a two bit phony prog  game-player ... usually much better with words and less obvious than demonstrated of late

Quote from: "Peaches"I figured I'd just let you all run with this for a couple of days.  As I expected, it took less than 2 pages for the BC consensus to come out as "the media's fault."



And not even a mention of Yiannopolous's dog whistle earlier in the week or Trump's most recent dog whistle earlier in the month.  



Nor anything about Ramos's subtle but deep fascination with alt-right rhetoric.



And it's too much to expect any references to the hidden history of US regime de-stabilizations in various Latin American countries throughout the decades, which often featured attacks on newspapers.  Hell, no one in the US is talking about that playbook either.

I don't tell you what to think about Australian politics.  I don't tell Canadians what to think about Canadian politics.  But I've undoubtedly spent a hella lot more time than you have studying US politics, so you're welcome to your opinion... and you're welcome to skip reading mine, but you're assuredly not welcome to tell me what to think.

I don't know where to start here, but I'll start by saying that I've reached the point, as have a lot of Americans and other world citizens, where it no longer makes any sense to refrain from calling Trump what he is, or to speak civilly of him, or to put up with his base who are not reachable through reasoned logical dialogue.  I have avoided political posts here and political discussions of all sorts, although I do read a little.  I've managed over the past month or so to avoid offending too many people here, but frankly it's a tough go for short dough.


Quote from: "Fashionista"
Okay it seems you don't deny the opponents of the president are have gone too far..



You just say(without proof) his supporters have copied his opponents methods.


Sorry but the actions of the president's opponents are not the topic I'm replying to, and I don't think they've gone too far at all.  The president's opponents, which is to say over seventy percent of the country, are just starting to get rowdy with him.  His supporters have copied nothing, and it is they who have brought the violence and hate into the political arena with his encouragement.  These things don't need links.  Unless your only source of US news is Fox, you have a two year track record which has been carefully archived and annotated by those who deplore him, and the information isn't hard to find.


Quote from: "Wazzzup" ... I, at least, blamed media members for lying and saying Trump inspired the shooting when that obviously was completely unsupported by any known facts.

So you didn't blame media for the shooting but you blame them for "lying" when they describe his actual words and deeds?  Don't get me wrong, I can't and don't claim that he "inspired" the shooting but there's two years of his rhetoric that certainly helped set the stage.  Who was the last would-be despot who kept harping on the press being the Enemy of the People?  It's kind of a "tell."


Quote from: "cc"
Yup. 2 claims simply spit out from nowhere -  zero evidence as to support. I'm disappointed



Not that reader needs prove anything but Link-less in wherever said "within minutes"???  ... "https://www.vox.com/2018/6/28/17515262/capital-gazette-annapolis-maryland-shooting">The shooting began around 2:35 pm at the Capital Gazette offices" - Fox show starts at 6.00 pm .. . kinda makes the entire post a tad suspicious, say what?


Quote from: "Link-less"You can't make this stuff up
Link-less just did ... and blatantly so  ac_smile

Sorry but I don't need links to talk about my own opinion, and I don't have to link things that are widely known to be documented.  You like links, look them up yourownself.



As for Hannity, it was a figurative "minutes" and it might as well have been minutes because he was blaming Waters on his show BEFORE investigators on the scene had given anyone enough information to start pointing fingers.  Thus it's a completely valid criticism whether you like it or not.

I think it's pretty funny when honkies try to lecture a 79 year old African American woman about the travails of not getting served in a restaurant operated by people who don't like you, as if she doesn't already have decades of experience.

Trump haters come in several types.  I do condone some of their antics, and not all.  You do me a disservice by engaging in binary thinking about what I condone, if you are basing it on two posts in this thread without seeking to clarify anything.

You must be highly selective in your choices of news coverage, to suggest that the left is anywhere close to the right in its choice of violence and disruption as political tools.

Congratulations on being the first poster to go ad hominem on me today.  And since you did, an unwise choice at that, I'll just say that your recollection of our exchanges two years ago where I busted your troll and left it smoking on the floor is quite inexact.  Fortunately, anyone who doesn't recall it accurately can probably look it up in the forum archives.  I'm sorry you're so butthurt over it, but you do seem to have an unfortunate habit of underestimating people on forums.

I"m sorry to have disappointed you in that respect, but as I said a month or two ago I'm probably not in your arena where economics is concerned and I consider myself a fiscal libertarian for the most part.
