The point was the inaccuracies and dangers of such accusations. So you're the victim in this anecdote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could have made an effort to prevent the party you support from turning into a vile, hateful, racist cesspool though and then you wouldn’t have to worry about it. There’s a reason people are disgusted by the GOP. A very valid reason. edit: I think you may have been talking about the lady that lived with you situation? I thought you meant people thinking you’re a racist because you support the GOP. Again, two completely different situations that should not be conflated.

On top of that, if you are still supporting people who are supporting these fascist views, then you are part of the problem. No one on MLK Ave will bother you. Also, why would you tell us this story? Its random as fack, there is a lot of detail missing, and is not pertinent to this conversation. Unless it is to say, "hey I am conservative and I can feel oppressed" or whatever victim hood you want to believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llevron Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Yall really think that all of the black people walking down MLK have nothing better to do then listen to some lady that lived in his house for free (she must know alot of people and her word carry alot of weight ammiright!?) and put Weg on the 'racist, do not talk, try and hurt if possible' list? Also someone forward me the list cause I changed my email. edit: **** outta here with that **** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't heard any reporting on it and I doubt it's the same volume and intensity as what these doctors have been getting. Plus they're much more well-protected and have the FBI to investigate any threats compared to these Doctors. But, if you find info that runs contrary to that assumption, just let us know. The point is, it's a false equivalency to equate death threats with shaming people for supporting a government that locks up kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visionary Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Anyway, I like not serving some visible Trump administration folks (don’t really think it should be extended to others though because it could get really chaotic) and had been wondering why this didn’t happen before now. Not crazy about the idea of people following them around or harassing them however, unless we’re talking about Trump or Sarah Sanders specifically to get them to answer questions since they aren’t having briefings.

Hersh Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 3 hours ago, tshile said: No. Democrats tend to vote when they're inspired and when they're angry. (Even though when they don't show up their only excuse is disenfranchisement) If you haven't or don't know about it go look at the the NC Congressional maps, the court case, the evidence and the history in NC on Congressional districts. (Not sure if you are dismissing disenfranchisement in all situations like the one here in NC so I'll let anyone get informed on NC before commenting) Serious disenfranchisement when it comes to representation here.

Secret code ? See, the trick is to be so obvious with what you’re saying that even the average Trump supporter can understand but, without expressly saying it so that you can feign outrage whenever anyone points it out.

The Evil Genius Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Trump's tweet from 0502 am this morning regarding the Red Hen seems like a lawsuit worthy tweet. People have been successfully sued for a lot less for bad reviews on Yelp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgold Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 I don't mind economics being considered in the analysis of an oceanic science agency, but their recommendations should chiefly be made and their research chiefly focused on science. I suspect this one goes under the radar, but it is symptomatic of something that may lead us to more and more long term problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
