From Press enraged over Trump posted by freeper cotton1706

the article posted:

Reporters bristled at their treatment during Donald Trump's campaign event Friday, where the GOP presidential nominee only briefly addressed his past skepticism of President Obama's birthplace and abruptly left without taking any questions.

Trump then barred reporters from joining a tour of his new hotel, which prompted the pooled television reporters to erase their video from the tour, according to multiple reporters.

It should be underscored how really, really irritated the press pool is over this one. CNN said "we were duped," and there were multiple unironic accusations of pulling a Rick Roll. No, your calendar is correct, it really is 2016.

Oh, but I'm sure freep will be sympath-

You'd think so, but the alt-right seem to be doing a great job hoovering up alienated youth, so they'll be around forever I'm afraid :smith:

It's a fresh thread so we have a lot of new readers, so we might need a minor refresher course here.

Freepers are Boomers. Their hate comes mainly from their upbringing and the resulting worldview, centered on American exceptionalism and the white middle class American Dream(tm). They're conservatives. Change rubs them the wrong way, and society has changed a lot and they are grumpy about it and I will drink their tears as they shed them.

The alt-right is majority Millennials and late GenX. Demographically, their composition is similar to that of SA itself. They were not raised to hate, they learned to hate on the internet.

The alt-right has effectively no presence on freep, and it doesn't look like that will be changing any time soon. Despite being crotchety old bigots, JimRob does not allow the members excessive, explicit racist views. The only major alt-right poster on freep was zotted just the other week for being a racist shitstain, and he was called on it by pretty much everyone. It's one of the few zots that I'd agree with.

There is zero love between the two groups, and I fully expect to see freep die before the alt-right can stage a takeover.

From Frustrated, Armed With Ropes, Activist Group Plans to Pull Down Andrew Jackson Monument posted by freeper brucedickinson

the article posted:

A New Orleans activist group is threatening to pull down the city's most recognizable statue in response to what members claim are unreasonable delays in removing four other monuments honoring Confederate leaders and a 19th century white supremacist militia.

Take 'Em Down NOLA says it will attempt to topple the statue of Andrew Jackson during a protest later this month in Jackson Square. Legal delays have kept the other statues -- honoring Confederate President Jefferson Davis, Confederate generals Robert E. Lee and P.G.T. Beauregard, and a militia known as the White League -- standing nine months after the City Council authorized their removal.

Now, that's what was posted in the excerpt on freep. The full article goes into a bit more detail. To make it clear, this and other statues seem to be destined for the dustbin.

the article still posted:

A panel of 5th Circuit judges is expected to hear arguments Sept. 28 on whether to extend a court order that would keep the monuments in place while the suit challenging their removal goes to a full trial.

Plans to take down the monuments weren't helped after the original contractor hired to remove them dropped out after its owner said he received death threats. Interest from other companies was lukewarm when the city later asked for public bids.

Take 'Em Down organizers blamed the delay on both the courts — the 5th Circuit is considered one of the most conservative federal appeals courts in the nation — and a lack of aggressive action by the city. They said the city should have denounced or ignored the court order.

You stay classy, New Orleans.

If these people really cared about slavery instead of virtue signaling, they could try to eradicate modern slavery. As in, you know, real slavery that exists NOW, in 2016, not American slavery that was eliminated in 1863, at great cost to the country.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contemporary_slavery

From the above link:

quote:

India has the most slaves of any country, at roughly 18.4 million. China is second with 3.4 million slaves, followed by Pakistan (2.1 million), Bangladesh (1.5 million), and Uzbekistan (1.2 million). By percentages of the population living in slavery, North Korea tops with 4.4% (about 1.1 million people out of 25 million), followed by Uzbekistan (4% of its population), Cambodia (1.6%), India, (1.4%) and Qatar (1.4%)

American social justice types could dedicate themselves to freeing modern slaves. If they did, they might have some actual virtue to signal. But that will never happen.

Chances are that freepers have never at any point heard the phrase "virtue signalling" before. I'd show them this, but I don't think they'd get it.

From Dem senator to Trump: 'Blood will be on your hands' if Clinton killed (Chris Murphy, Idiot-Conn) posted by freeper Zakeet

the article posted:

"Hey @realDonaldTrump, if you keep suggesting your supporters kill @HillaryClinton, someone will listen. The blood will be on your hands," Murphy tweeted Saturday morning.

Trump said Friday night at a campaign rally that Clinton’s Secret Service detail should have their guns taken away to "see what happens to her."

"I think that her bodyguards should drop all weapons," he said. "Take their guns away. She doesn’t want guns … let's see what happens to her. Take their guns away, OK? It'd be very dangerous."

Democrats have reacted angrily to Trump’s comment, calling it an incitement of violence.

quote:

Somebody should explain to these Democrat drama queens that Trump's remark, if taken seriously, would actually help Hillary's handlers stuff her into the meat wagon when she has another minor medical event as she endeavors to power on ... something that, incidentally, is much more likely to happen than her getting gunned down!

From Somali community in Minn. fears backlash after stabbing suspect ID’d posted by freeper PROCON

the article posted:

Leaders of the Somali community in central Minnesota united Sunday to condemn the stabbings. They said the suspect — identified by his father as 22-year-old Dahir A. Adan — does not represent them, and they expressed fear about a backlash.

Minnesota has the nation’s largest Somali community, with census numbers placing the population at about 40,000 but community activists saying it’s even higher.

The community has been a target for terror recruiters in recent years. More than 20 young men have left the state since 2007 to join al-Shabab in Somalia; the U.S. considers the eastern Africa militants group a terrorist group. Roughly a dozen people have left in recent years to join militants in Syria. In addition, nine Minnesota men face sentencing on terror charges for plotting to join the Islamic State group.

There's not a lot of discussion about it in general, maybe a thread every few days, usually with less than twenty replies. If you want more coverage of the Bundy case, the thread here on SA is hidden in C-SPAM for some reason.

Now, for those not really familiar with the issue, the Bureau of Land Management has had the audacity to worry about things like making sure the land isn't overgrazed and proper environmental protections are in place, etc, etc. Locals are upset about this because they don't like that there's reduced local control over local land, leading to the perceptions that their concerns aren't being listened to. Some of their grievances have actual legitimacy, but what the Bundys did has nearly zero local support.

The Hammonds were why the Bundys chose to come to Oregon. They started fires on their land that went wild and spread to adjacent refuges, set up artificial ponds that interfered in normal water flow, and other stupid things that ended up causing both environmental and logistical problems. You know, in addition to the whole arson thing. They were put on trial and were convicted, and were scheduled to turn themselves in when the occupation started.

Bundy is in a kangaroo court. He embarrassed the Government by not allowing them to kill him and steal his property[land] earlier. They will make up for it this time. He, at this point, is a walking dead man. While it is true that cannot give him the death penalty, they can and will lock him away from the public eye for decades and decades. Then, as they did with Jim McDougal, they will drug test him and that will be the end of him.

From White House: US Is In A ‘Narrative Fight’ With ISIS posted by freeper maggief.

It's a poo poo article from the Daily Caller. First, the quote they included in the article:

quote:

When it comes to ISIL, we are in a fight, a narrative fight with them, a narrative battle

... and then the rest of the quote:

quote:

and what ISIL wants to do is they want to project that they are an organization that is representing Islam in a fight and a war against the West, and a war against the United States. That is a bankrupt, false narrative. It’s a mythology, and we have made progress in debunking that mythology.

Of course, freep and an unfortunate majority on the right side of the political spectrum don't understand how important it is to get messaging correct, so we shouldn't be surprised to have them intentionally misunderstand and butcher quotes in the name of their own narrative.

From George H.W. Bush to vote for Hillary posted by freeper Trump20162020

the article posted:

Bush, 92, had intended to stay silent on the White House race between Clinton and Donald Trump, a sign in and of itself of his distaste for the GOP nominee. But his preference for the wife of his own successor, President Bill Clinton, nonetheless became known to a wider audience thanks to Kathleen Hartington Kennedy Townsend, the former Maryland lieutenant governor and daughter of the late Robert F. Kennedy.

On Monday, Townsend posted a picture on her Facebook page shaking hands next to the former president and this caption: "The President told me he’s voting for Hillary!!”

From Unreal! Donald Trump Jr. Comes Under Fire for Comparing Muslim Refugees to Skittles posted by freeper bobsunshine.

https://twitter.com/DonaldJTrumpJr/status/778016283342307328?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

To be clear, the controversy is over the ratio, not the use of Skittles. From a much better article than the one freep used,

NPR posted:

The post by the Republican presidential candidate's son immediately went viral. It earned the support and praise of many Trump supporters, who worry that an influx of refugees poses an existential security threat. It also drew condemnation from many who viewed the tweet as a flip, dehumanizing way to address a humanitarian catastrophe affecting more than 13 million people.
[...]
Others were more direct in their response, posting graphic images of Syrian refugees and writing, "Not a Skittle

And, as the Washington Post pointed out, the bowl of Skittles would have to be awfully large for Trump's analogy to be accurate: The odds of being killed by a refugee in a terrorist attack are about 1 in more than 3.6 billion, according to a recent Cato Institute study.

Of course, we all know that freep is not bound by the constraints of reality.

So, base questions (questions 26-35 in the poll):
  • Do you support or oppose House Bill 2? 33% support, 47% oppose, 20% not sure
  • Do you think House Bill 2 has had a positive or negative impact on the North Carolina economy, or has it not made a difference? Positive 10%, negative 59%, no difference: 23%, not sure 8%
  • Do you think House Bill 2 has had a positive or negative impact on North Carolina’s reputation nationally, or has it not made a difference? Positive 21%, negative 53%, no difference 19%, not sure 7%
  • Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of LGBT people? 47% fav, 19% unfav, 34% not sure.
Crosstabs!
  • Unsurprisingly, a majority of Trump supporters support HB2 (54/24/22). Some of Hillary's do as well, but much less: 15/67/18.
  • LGBTQ Favorability by party: Dems: 54/14/32, Reps: 22/34/43, Ind/Other 61/11/28
  • LGBTQ Favorability by race: whites: 49/20/31, African-Americans: 38/16/46, Rest: 60/17/23

From Obama to Netanyahu: Settlement Construction Is Threatening the Two-state Solution (final meeting) posted by freeper Dave346

This headline is a lot more fair handed than the ones I saw earlier, like "Obama: Israel cannot 'permanently occupy, settle Palestinian land'", which I figured would make it to freep and cause all kinds of fun.

the article posted:

U.S. President Barack Obama told Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday that continued construction at the Israeli settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem is threatening the future of the two-state solution.

According to a senior American official, in their half-hour long meeting in New York on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, Obama raised "profound U.S. concerns about the corrosive effect that that settlement activity, that is continuing when the occupation enters its 50th year, is having on the prospects of two states solution."

And yet, Obummer has no problem creating Third World settlements in the USA.

As opposed to what, a single state solution where nobody that isn't Jewish gets to be a citizen with things like voting rights?

Israel should own the west bank, and never give it up. The west bank should never get full Israeli citizenship and voting rights.
It should remain an occupied territory of Israel...


You don’t want them to have the “one state” solution because the moslems would vote them out.
You don’t want them to have a “two state” because that puts a hostile moslem army poised to cut Israel in half and within rocket range of most of the population.

The dune coons just need to be content to be an occupied and Israeli administered territory.

The only answers are to repatriate them to countries they’ve already invaded and conquered this way — there are 56 such nations Moslems have already taken over like this. Or just kill them outright before they kill us. ( I prefer the repatriation approach. But if it’s not done, the second approach is inevitable as western societies will eventually start defending thrmselves from this deadly Islsmonazi scourge - all history teaches this)

Will Trump continue the war in Syria? Will Trump try to establish "palestine?" America's fate is dependent.

Bush gave Israel the Muslim terror state of Gaza and God gave America 8 years of Osatan in return.

The unpleasant fact for most here is it doesn't matter WHO is president, the Christian nation called America consistently leads the world in trying to destroy Israel, demonically in the name of peace.

Why is the US running Muslim terrorists in bordering-Israel Syria? For the same reason they try to divide Israel and establish the next Muslim terror state in Eretz Yisrael.

Unfortunately, persons merely blockading a highway do not inherently represent an imminent deadly force threat–simply blocking a roadway cannot normally cause death or grave bodily harm to those injured. As a result, using one’s vehicle to “run them down,” or even to physically push them aside, is unlikely to be legally justified unless there is some additional threatening conduct.

I watched the ground level video of this incident AND AS USUAL, I SAW A BLACK MALE TRYING TO GET INTO HIS VEHICLE RATHER THAN FREEZE AND OBEY COMMANDS. The media narrative was that his 'hands were in the air'.. BULLSH*T. He was trying to open his window or enter the vehicle AFTER being told to stop and that is why he was shot.
But it is kind of nice to see a female cop being subjected to wrongful punishment for the sake of political correctness instead of a white male, for a change.

It's time to EDUCATE BLACKS TO OBEY COP'S COMMANDS. This is THE problem! Blacks believe that OBEYING orders from authority harkens back to SLAVERY. THIS MINDSET NEEDS TO CHANGE or these shootings by police will NOT stop.

From Why we should treat Islamophobia as a public health issue posted by freeper PROCON

The article is pretty good.

the article posted:

When I was 16, a Texas police officer pulled me over and said "it's people like you that are ruining this country. Go back to your country." People who speed, I thought? Girls who are late for figure skating practice? I wasn't sure what he meant. What country was I supposed to go to? I was born and raised in Austin. Then, it dawned on me. It was a month after 9/11, and he meant Muslims.
[...]
Unfortunately, Islamophobia is deeply institutionalized. Americans are exposed to political campaigns, news coverage and movies that portray Muslims as outsiders and villains. One study found that the coverage of Islam and Muslims in The New York Times was more negative than the coverage of cancer, alcohol and cocaine. Structural forms of discrimination, forms such as media coverage or political campaigns that call for a ban on Muslims, help normalize discriminatory attitudes and create the institutional system of discrimination.
[...]
Members of stigmatized groups have greater stress, strained social relationships and unequal access to resources or medical care. Social marginalization increases the physiological response to stress. Discrimination against Muslim Americans has been linked to paranoia, psychological distress and reduced happiness as well as high cholesterol, obesity and other health problems.

quote:

Goleen Samari is a postdoctoral research fellow at The University of Texas at Austin.

OK....

Take a few minutes to read this illogical screed, great entertainment.

Moreover, when people are targeted based on their identity, the persistent exposure to discrimination has a pervasive, negative effect on health. Being a victim of Islamophobia can be traumatizing, with severe and lasting health impacts.

So, you're worried about YOUR health?

Well, we non-muslims are worried about OUR LIVES.

Focus on your own 7th century death cult and quit whining!

At times, there has been a split between national civil rights leaders and the younger leaders here, who see their efforts as more immediate, less passive than an older generation's. But some here said relations have improved in recent weeks.

According to the Rev. Al Sharpton, who has appeared frequently in St. Louis with the Brown family and delivered a speech at Mr. Brown's funeral, Mr. Obama "was concerned about Ferguson staying on course in terms of pursuing what it was that he knew we were advocating.

I've never been able to get over freep's understanding of the religion they claim to follow and protect.

I was going to cover Is Mary not a Virgin? The German Bishops’ New Bible Translation Leaves it... Unclear posted by freeper marshmallow, but it turns out that it's just a huge boring slapfight.

One of the more curious translations we see in the Bible is the word "virgin" applied to Mary. Some translations instead interpret the word used to describe Mary as "young woman," which is apparently more correct in a literal sense. The end result is that the apostles end up again misquoting or twisting content we see in the OT in order to make it look like Jesus is fulfilling a prophecy when he might not be. As a certified internet atheist, I find this kind of thing to be fascinating. If you have half an hour to burn, Dr. Kristi Winters has started a series discussing historical Jesus. In the first part, she touches on a few similar issues and also discusses similarities between the religious nuts of the day and what we see now from freepers and their cohorts.

Anyway, the bottom line is that this isn't a new controversy by any means, and a similar adjustment to some translations last made headlines about five years ago. Freep ends up getting lost in the details and there's a big slapfight over which apologetics are worth listening to and whether or not Mary and Joseph had any other children, and my perpetual favorite freeper, af_vet_1981, ends up calling out a bunch of people on logical fallacies by linking them to google searches of the fallacy.

Nobody noticed this, but look at those goddamn idiots that flagged the thing as something they didn't want to see. Utter madness.

From Mispronouncing Student’s Name Now a ‘Microaggression’ posted by freeper COUNTrecount.

This is correct when you put the word "Intentionally" in front of the headline, like the rest of the shitshow of an article implies but does not say. But it's from Breitbart, so expecting them to take things like this seriously is clearly out of the question. It should also be no surprise that the only """news""" sites covering this right now are Breitbart, WND, Infowars, and Townhall dot com. Those horrible horrible leftists in the MSM like NBC, PBS, Australia's ABC, and the Independent in the UK covered this when the campaign launched months ago. This seems to be a standard operating procedure among the RWM echo chamber - find a thing related to a social justice topic that isn't in the headlines any more and then cover it stupidly so that their more recent coverage shows up first, earning clickthrus and sweet, sweet ad revenue.

Insert "I'm sure freep will handle this like mature adults ... oops, nope, I'm wrong, have an emoticon" gag here.

This must have occurred during my blue collar life whilst I was too busy at the grindstone to notice. It is not by accident that an entire people have deliberately chosen to make themselves distinct from we who go by, for the most part “common” first names. I hereby put forth the proposition that these people stop their silly game and step up and declare full on secession from who ever they so desire. This would be logistically tricky, but there is no other solution. It is the only way that the two, never to be reconciled, peoples of the USA can move on together, sharing our mutual bounties. We must move on in parallel lives and forego the notion of living together side by side, in perfect harmony like ivory and ebony.

From Richard Sherman says people are ignoring message of NFL players' protests posted by freeper artichokegrower

You may know Richard Sherman from his attempts at dodging the press and his hilarious "I'm just here so I won't get fined" press conference. Oops, wrong Seahawk.

quote:

“I do a lot of community service,” Sherman said. “I go out there and try to help kids and try to encourage them to be better and to aspire to more. And when you tell a kid, ‘When you're dealing with police, just put your hands up and comply with everything,' and there's still a chance of them getting shot and no repercussions for anyone, that's an unfortunate time to be living. That's an unfortunate place to be in.”

He closed his statement with this message:

“So when a guy takes a knee, you can ignore it. You can say he’s not being patriotic, he’s not honoring the flag. I’m doing none of those things. I’m saying it straight up. This is wrong and we need to do something. So thank you guys, have a blessed day.”

That's a good message. Let's see how badly freep fucks this one up.

quote:

And when you tell a kid, ‘When you're dealing with police, just put your hands up and comply with everything,' and there's still a chance of them getting shot and no repercussions for anyone, that's an unfortunate time to be living. That's an unfortunate place to be in.”

He would be better off telling black kids how to deal with black men who are more likely to shoot you than a police officer

" I’m doing none of those things."

And Richard Sherman got into Stanford how?

I haven't seen a single thing about the recent revelations about the Trump Foundation misappropriating funds for personal use, for example.

Seattle catcher Steve Clevenger was suspended without pay for the remainder of the season by the Mariners on Friday, a day after he apologized for a pair of controversial tweets he posted on the violent protests in Charlotte, N.C., and the Black Lives Matter movement.

One of those tweets stated that the people protesting a police shooting of a black man “should be locked behind bars like animals.”
[...]
After two nights of violent protests that left at least 14 people injured, Clevenger weighed in with two tweets on Thursday. In one, he stated that the situation “cracks me up!”

“Black people beating whites when a thug got shot holding a gun by a black officer haha,” he tweeted.

In the other one, Clevenger called President Obama and the Black Lives Matter movement “pathetic” before adding, “Everyone involved should be locked behind bars like animals!”

Is jingoistic patriotism the only kind they know?

You can import black paid for thugs, I'll use his word, as the chief of police said 80% of those arrested were from out of state and we have to respect the rioters.
Basic questions,”Why were there no rioters in Tulsa?” There we have a white female officer shooting and killing a black male.
Oh let see, North Carolina is a battleground state and Oklahoma isn't. These paid rioters are there to influence voters not police shootings.
I am sick and tired of political correctness. If you disagree with political correctness, you are a racist, sexist, homophobe, islamophobe etc.. No your ideas are wrong and suck.

ALL OF A SUDDEN
MESSAGE FROM A CONCERNED CITIZEN:

“Has everyone lost their ability to see what is happening
in the USA?
Think America!
Before Obama, there was virtually no visible presence of Islam in America.

All of a sudden , Islam is taught in schools.
All of a sudden , we must allow prayer rugs everywhere and allow for
Islamic prayer in schools and businesses.
All of a sudden , we must stop serving pork in public places and
institutions.
All of a sudden, we are inundated with law suits by Muslims who are
offended by America.
(For God’s sake, they are IN America)

All of a sudden, we must allow burkas to be worn everywhere even
though you have no idea who is covered up under them.

All of a sudden, Muslim training compounds are
popping up throughout the USA.

All of a sudden , Muslims are suing employers for
being expected to do their jobs.

All of a sudden , our troops are withdrawn from the
middle east.

All of a sudden , there is no money for American poor, disabled
veterans, jobless Americans, hungry Americans, or displaced Americans, but there is
endless money for Obama’s refugee programs.

All of a sudden , Obama fills the Federal Government
with Muslims in key positions.

All of a sudden , there is an ammunition shortage in
the USA.

All of a sudden, Americans are threatened by the
Federal government for complaining about Muslims.

All of a sudden , the most important thing for Obama
to do is disarm American Citizens.

All of a sudden , we start thinking, ‘if they don’t want
to assimilate in American culture, what are the Muslims here for and
why are they here anyway’ ??

All of a sudden , we are having Sharia Law explained to
us as if we would need it in the future.

transcript of the ad from the article posted:

“I’d look her right in that fat, ugly face of hers,” Trump, the GOP presidential nominee, says in the first clip in the 30-second ad.

“She’s a slob,” he added.

“She ate like a pig,” Trump said, which appeared to be from an interview on CNN.

“A person who is flat-chested, it’s very hard to be a 10.”

“Does she have a good body? No. Does she have a fat [bleep]? Absolutely,” he said.

There's no evidence, and nobody in their right mind takes it seriously enough to make an issue out of it. But not freep. This is what they're hanging on to for dear life.

From Obama: once out of office, I’m gonna stop being polite and start getting real posted by freeper Salman

It's a really bad headline and even Vox should know better. Not a single word of it came out of his mouth. Here's the part of the actual Vanity Fair interview transcript.

the actual transcript posted:

OBAMA: [...] But, you know, when I leave I’ll be 55, and I’ll have an entirely new chapter of my life—the work I want to do with a presidential-center library, creating a platform for the next generation of young leaders across disciplines to work together … [and other] things that in some ways I suspect I’m able to do better out of this office.

GOODWIN: You mean, having had this office.

OBAMA: Having had this office has given me this incredible perch from which to see how the world works. The power of the office is unique and it is a humbling privilege. With that power, however, also comes a whole host of institutional constraints. There are things I cannot say. There are things that …

GOODWIN: You mean now, but you will later.

OBAMA: … that I cannot say, not out of any political concerns, but out of prudential concerns of the office. There are institutional obligations I have to carry out that are important for a president of the United States to carry out, but may not always align with what I think would move the ball down the field on the issues that I care most deeply about.

Their dislike for him has so many layers to it, it's absurd. He's black but not even freep is stupid enough to actual embrace real, honest-to-goodness, blatant racism. The advent of the birther movement gave each and every one of those bigots an excuse to hate on him.

Now combine that with their attitude about patriotism. Look at their circlejerk over the flag and the national anthem. Jingoism is all that they know. Their own environment stifles dissent. Dissent isn't patriotic, it's treasonous. If you don't like something about America, you must therefore hate America.

Every single element of the treason narrative is inside their collective imaginations. It's a meme in the RWM nutjob ecosystem, but they don't have enough insight to realize it... and even if they could realize it, anyone telling them this is clearly going to be an America-hating liberal intellectual that should be thrown in Gitmo.

The isolation created by the RWM echo chamber is one of the worst things to ever happen to this country. The schism it's created in our ability to discuss opposing political ideas is going to take some serious work to overcome. Even then, that's only going to be possible once people take their heads out of their asses and look around at loving reality.



From Home schooling ripped by Obama education chief posted by freeper kevcol.

Let's not beat around the bush here. Nine times out of ten, parents homeschooling their children are doing them a significant disservice. Those parents are often motivated by religiously motivated right wing nutter beliefs and are pulling their children out of school to prevent them from being exposed to liberal ideas, like, oh, I dunno, all of modern teaching theory? These same groups are the ones pushing for ""school choice"" and budget-destroying charter schools, all in an attempt to replace their perceptions of "liberal indoctrination" with ones that they come up with. Their motivations are almost always purely political. (There are edge cases where some children have learning styles or problems that can't be served well by schools, and some schools are indeed horrible places where neither the teachers nor administration give a poo poo, but those are the extreme minority and "bad local schools" is a lovely, lovely excuse.)

If Hillary gets in her administration will find some way to eliminate Home Schooling. They won’t be able to out-law it outright, but the Left has gotten far too good at using regulations and bureaucracies to further their aims.

Home schooled students aren’t immersed in Progressive pro-Islam propaganda for 12 years, they threaten the gravy train for the Democrat Party client teachers unions and they too often become productive non-Democrat voting citizens.

They don’t get exposure to the social environments other kids do....experiencing things like:

- How to be disrespectful to teachers
- Being exposed to all the swearing
- Being bullied where the school does nothing
- Getting high
- Getting drunk
- Teenage sex and getting STD’s
- Teenage pregnancy
- Teenage abortion
- Being indoctrinated by liberal teachers
- Lower educational standards


If schooled at home they might:

- Learn respect
- Perform well academically
- Be the next spelling bee champion
- Learn to be responsible
- Learn to work hard
- Think for themselves
- Believe in individual liberty
- Actually understand what free speech really means
- Be influenced by Christianity
- Have morals

Yep...how frightening!!! ...at least for bureaucrats that think they know better than everyone and think they’ve the right to control individual liberty.

The primary purpose of socialist government schooling is not to educate children.

It is to indoctrinate/socialize children into a humanistic pagan worldview, to depart them from the training of their parents, and to create a population of autonomous State servants whose values are in opposition to those of their families. Whatever label we use to describe the outcome, it is the opposite of Christian.


We are losing the culture war badly because public schools are so effective at what they do. How is it possible that Sodomite unions could become the law of the land less than a generation after many States passed Constitutional amendments banning them? Our institutions are at war with the People. We will lose the Republic because of it.

The Christian churches have, in a meaningful way, abandoned their membership to an overwhelmingly humanistic culture by refusing to promote an exodus from the pagan academies.

How do you reason, uh, "godfully"? I'm not trying to be an atheist dick but I thought that was the point, you don't reason your way into faith.

It's not about reason, it's about "reason." They're talking about bog standard religious indoctrination. If your worldview mandates that there be a god, and that this god is the only source of knowledge and truth, this will act as a filter against ideas that will call those beliefs into doubt. Evolution can't be true because that's not how it's documented in the religious texts. Global warming can't be true because a loving, caring god would never allow his creation to be tainted. Abortion is always evil because it's killing a babby. The death penalty is A-OK because it's proscribed in the religious texts. I could go on and on and on.

Indoctrination of this type is toxic to independent reasoning. In that last post they went on and on about how those darned liberal schools were teaching a new set of obedient drones without understanding that imposing their own restrictive worldview on their own children and separating them from their peers ends up serving the same purpose that they're afraid of. They're not wrong about there being significant structural problems in schools, especially high schools, but their solution is insane. It's just more of the same short-sighted cultural isolation that you see all over the religious and right wing nutjob communities.

Yes, it's not as if every child in California doesn't spend an entire year on state history, including a focus on the legacy of the 21 Catholic missions and their impact on the natives. I mean, that'd be stupid, right?

My scale playdough model of the Santa Clara mission buildings was so good that every kid in our extended family used it as their 4th grade project for years and years.

Now the Russian impact is a bit more interesting. I wonder what possible political reason there might be for suppressing that part of history.

black rioting in recent years, because of the legacy of slavery

Africa has slaves. America does not have slaves. I challenge him to name one slave and slave owner today. Just one legitimate one in today's America. Name one in the last 100 years in America. How about 150 years? Any in Charlotte? Any in Ferguson? ... I'm waiting. Come on. Just one black African sold and shackled into the hold of a slave ship and put up for sale on the town square. Still waiting... Nope, didn't think so. Slavery has NOTHING to do with today's riots. Prez NeverWasASlave would have better off speaking to the black on black murders every day in Chicago and other 'hoods.

The way liberals look at things, you will be considered racist to declare you won’t go to that museum.


Another one or two democrat presidents and a visit to the museum will be mandatory.

Every government school will be required to conduct a field trip to the museum for all students to totally immerse them in white guilt.

Construction costs alone for this hideous building were estimated to be $230 million at the onset. Just try to find the final cost on the internet or anywhere else.

There have been donations along the way from prominent donors, private foundations, etc. but the bulk of the costs have been and will be pried from the wallets of hard-pressed U.S. taxpayers.

There have been several acts of Congress appropriating tax money for this macabre Aztec-pyramid-tomb building over the years. Did your congressman or senator ever tell you about this in their "letters" to you over the years?

The final cost of construction, the projected future cost to taxpayers of artifact purchases, perpetual maintenance, equipment and furnishings, personnel costs, state-of-the-art show-biz displays and events, etc. will probably never be revealed or known.

As an aside, years ago Congress proposed constructing a good-sized wing on to one of the existing Smithsonian buildings (at a substantial decrease in cost), but the black/Democrat/liberal political bloc refused this proposal.

No wonder we're trillions in debt. The Uniparty majority in both Houses blithely keep spending like there's no tomorrow...and we drained-out chumps out here don't even know half of what they're doing.

You are correct. The name "African-American Museum" by definition is racist. Everything the libs and blacks do that brings separation is by definition racist.

Since I am not a racist, I have no intent of ever setting foot in that museum. This is despite the fact I've been a Smithsonian member and enjoy museums.

Anything that celebrates diversity brings disunity. Read "It's Your Ship" by navy ship captain Abrashoff. When he scrapped the diversity training and implemented unity training, racial incidents decreased dramatically. This is why Trump's continually mentioning that he will be a unifier gives much greater hope for change than the malicious divider currently occupying the White House.
