I agree with Tom's premise, if not the content. nossy Send a noteboard - 15/06/2017 09:46:57 AM

We all know it isn't just navel fluff, so I'm not addressing that. However, I think the elements within the media that are saying the ridiculous things the article discussed would be doing it without much pushing. And some of the politicians, obv for the same reasons.

I can't quite bring myself to respond to the article, because I feel as you do. It has a sound core point (which was also true before this administration), but there is a lot of crap to wade through. Hanging out on a conservative political website is wiping me out.

The funny thing about violence is you can't control it. Tom - 14/06/2017 04:31:35 PM 1383 Views
So you thought that would scare me Tom? Roland00 - 14/06/2017 09:30:34 PM 1325 Views
The aim was not to scare anyone. It was to show that violence is not controllable. Tom - 15/06/2017 04:24:12 AM 1368 Views
I thought everyone already understood that? I was wrong? Roland00 - 15/06/2017 10:26:04 PM 1411 Views

I think the gunman has more in common with people who beat their wives than Bernie Sanders Roland00 - 14/06/2017 09:08:54 PM 1287 Views
Do we know conclusively Bernie doesn't beat his wife? *NM* Tom - 15/06/2017 04:24:54 AM 721 Views
There are valid points, but rather a lot of bullshit inbetween for my taste. Legolas - 14/06/2017 07:07:10 PM 1530 Views
Obviously excessive hyperbole is a problem from both sides damookster - 14/06/2017 07:20:59 PM 1329 Views

That's not correct. Tom - 15/06/2017 04:19:06 AM 1424 Views
I agree with Tom's premise, if not the content. nossy - 15/06/2017 09:46:57 AM 1319 Views

Maybe? A large section of the academic left, anyway aerocontrols - 15/06/2017 05:17:14 PM 1173 Views

It's only nuts if you see the left as a single group that can be led and controlled. Legolas - 15/06/2017 09:04:05 PM 1217 Views
