Agreed. Fox didn’t handle the debates well. They were not fair and balanced. Most sites folks are disappointed by fox. They just wanted to ask “gotcha” questions.

I agree, FUGW.

I've about had enough of the arrogance from both the GOPe and those on FR who believe they have the right to dictate to me what I should think/believe, and HOW I should think and believe.

I don’t know what it’s going to take for people to realize this ain’t the America of our fathers:

Planned Parenthood.

Gay Marriage - Or Else.

Open Borders/Demographic Destruction of America.

Destruction of the US Military.

Nationalization of State and Local Police forces.

Nationalization of the Medical Industry.

Spiraling national debt.

The Uniparty.

Media as propaganda arm of Government.

I no longer pledge allegiance to this country. I am in rebellion.

Man accused of carving name into wall inside Alamo

Dude keys his name into a wall, gets charged with a felony for causing $250,000 worth of damage. Also his name sounds Mexican. Totally rational reactions to vandalism ITT.

That's how it is in the US anyway. Businesses going under? Give them millions so their directors and CEO get raises, and the employees are being laid off en masse.

On the one hand, it's a historic site, so I expect that restoration will be extremely expensive. On the other hand, they say the damaged area measures 1"x3", so $250,000 seems excessive.

He's in good company though;

Agreed except it's not pennies per tomato, it's pennies per POUND of tomatoes.

I still kinda chuckle when I remember deep south states having millions of dollars of produce literally rot on the ground because they decided they didn't want "illegals" picking crops anymore and no sane American citizen (even those on unemployment) would do it for the wages they offered.

Look, re_nortex, I am not here to defend Islam. I hate Islam. In my mind it is a greater evil than communism.
I was just about to turn in, samtheman, but caught your message and felt that I owe you the courtesy of a reply, albeit a quick one. I too hate islam with a burning intensity. The reason I dig in my heels and defend the Irving ISD on this matter is that they demonstrated that muzzies are under suspicion. As as for the PD, the article claims:

They led Ahmed into a room where four other police officers waited. He said an officer he’d never seen before leaned back in his chair and remarked: “Yup. That’s who I thought it was.”

Whether or not that account is factual is not germane to my point. The perception ought to be among all muzzies in this Republic that they're being constantly watched and not trusted. Yes, treated differently. Profiled. Dare I say discriminated against.

My hope is that incidents such as this make them wake up and realize they are simply not wanted here. In short, my dream is their day-to-day lives suffer what they perceive to be insults and humiliations. Ultimately, they'll get the message that they are not welcome in America because, frankly, they're not.

Apologies in advance because this time, for sure, I'm heading off to bed. I don't normally post and run but must due to the hour. I'll be back around in about eight hours and, if you wish, we can engage later. So again, good night and/or good morning!

Freep is fascist, full stop. Not all American right-wingers are fascist, not even all American extreme right-wingers are fascist in the traditional sense (a lot of hardline rightist movements don't really qualify as 'fascist' unless you use an extremely broad definition of the term), but Freep as a community is straight-up fascist. The only thing that sets them apart from the rest of the white-supremacist/dark-enlightenment/neo-Nazi Internet community (/pol/, Stormfront, the Daily Stormer, Tradyouth, etc.) is that Freep is a small, insular clique of lazy old people who don't do anything.

It's some sort of escalation of the story and I don't get it. Are different people claiming different parts? Because it seems that literally every single facet of the story has to be falsified.

Ahmed* is a 16-year-old* high school student* who aspires* to join NASA* who came to school one day* with a digital clock* of his own invention* and was unfairly* targeted by staff and police* for his Muslim-sounding name* and was later invited* by Obama* and NASA* as compensation* for his* mistreatment*.

Like, you think it'd be easier just to let this situation play out naturally rather than engineer literally every single molecule of the situation and the response.

Just because one thinks one part is fishy, every part must be a lie? Did any of it actually happen? Is Ahmed real? Is Obama real?

This kid must be as pure as the driven snow because they haven't even found a rumour of him even doing the slightest thing wrong. I have strong suspicion that he is a complete dork. No doubt the right-wing press are frantically digging for a photo of a kid that looks vaguely like him doing "gang signs" or something. I suspect the worst they are going to find is 10,000 hours logged in Minecraft.

I'd love to know where that guy is seeing a family of 4 get $800 a month for food in addition to all those other things. A quick check online shows that apparently Hawaii gives a bit more than that while the US average is about $133 per person? I think the average family of 4 would love to get than extra $280 a month for food, and maybe not to be shamed by conservative assholes when they use an EBT card.
