I think apologizing in front of the world is sufficient. I don't think people are gonna go out of their way to let this Weber guy get 1-on-1 time with Tim Walz.
I have been to plenty of Husker games in Lincoln and Runza is so good.....they do a great chili, and they team it up with a cinnamon roll that oddly is a great combo
the person who wrote this has a bible verse in their bio MAGA is coalition of genuinely evil and disgusting low IQ people
That's disgusting. People who make fun of someone with disabilities are cruel to the bone, and just because they have a Bible verse on their bio, doesn't change that. I wonder if he bought a Trump Bible.
You bet this guy would try to do the same thing they are doing in Europe now. Incarcerating people for their opinions, and trying to jail operators of platforms used for free speech, unless they comply to become tools for the government. 1984.
meh, people shouldn't react to short videos of one idiot saying idiotic things. (I know, I do react sometimes, yes.) Just too little time on this earth for such, right? If you don't know them, and you would never have known them without the sewer flux of X's rage algorithm... just pretend you never did see that turd float by.
For some strange reason I do not mind seeing all of the YouTube and X snippets. I take them ALL with many grains of salt. It's like MSNBC and Fox. Depending on where you choose to get your news. I do not have the time to surf X or YouTube much at all, so to get someone who feels passionately about subjects to do the work for me is satisfying. I laugh mostly, but I'm always looking. If someone is looking for a specific narrative to be corroborated, you can find plenty to support your claim if you find those with a similar ideology. So, what may not be truth becomes truth to those who are not skeptical.
Someone like @B-Bob, who is otherwise a good guy with a good sense of humour, prefers to remain in his leftist ivory tower bubble. It's the same with all of these guys who complain about opposing viewpoints being shared - they cannot cope with someone not falling in line with their narrative. Even if it's facts being shared, they just don't want to hear it if it doesn't support their world view. That's a common thing with the leftists. No wonder they are the ones who love censorship and who want to jail people who post opposing viewpoints.
I do not have any side in this. All I am saying is for every poll someone throws out there, there are 15 more that are different. Dems post the polls that have Harris in front Repubs post the polls that have Trump in front. There is a point and counterpoint to ANY posting on X. Trump is a convicted felon, undisputable. dems In a Republican Trumpers eyes, it was a kangaroo court he was set up so it's not really a conviction to them. I hope this makes sense I choose not to believe any of them to do with what is going on here in the USA. I will say that there are many on this board whom I do not agree with from both sides, but the passion and solidarity is there for those whom they choose to support. My issue id when it gets WAY to personal. I believe Mypac needs to be kicked off this board, because his violent rhetoric is beyond the pale. If anyone's comments on this board need to be shown to the authorities it is him. He may be a keyboard warrior, but there is a line. I also get the 1st amendment stuff so he i guess can insult as he pleases without repercussion. But he sullies this board with his presence.
There is really nothing new about this alleged "ban". p*rnography and political indoctrination should not be something children should be exposed to. I just had a look and in my county (Palm Beach) zero books were removed, same in Miami-Dade. It's all exaggerated by the Left as part of their culture war efforts.
As has been established you are in favor of censoring things that you are against. Understood. That is still censorship https://pen.org/report/banned-in-the-usa-state-laws-supercharge-book-suppression-in-schools/ That's awesome if some schools aren't banning the books.
https://www.aei.org/op-eds/books-ar...-do-defend-p*rn-for-kids-in-school-libraries/ Books Aren’t Being Banned at School. But Democrats, Media Do Defend p*rn for Kids in School Libraries The Senate Judiciary Committee recently held a hearing into so-called “book bans.” My message to Congress was simple: books aren’t being banned, and it’s good that they are. For years now, the left has been having a field day crying foul over parents who are concerned about what they’re finding in school libraries. Democrat pollsters have convinced their clients that this is a winning issue, and President Joe Biden even featured it in his re-election launch video. But Republican Senator Kennedy and I demolished that narrative with one simple trick: we read the books out loud. When Fox News played clips of Senator Kennedy, it had to bleep out so much of it that it sounded like an emergency broadcast message. I took no pleasure in (probably) being the first, and hopefully the last, to read words like “butt-plugs” and “strap-on dildos” into the Congressional Record. But if discussion of these items have no place in the U.S. Senate, then maybe they also have no place in public schools? Amazingly, by the end of the hearing even the Democrat Senators seemed to agree. Senator Durbin, who called the hearing, insisted that no one supported having obscene or pornographic materials floating around in school libraries. So, it really should be case closed, then. Because that’s what this issue is truly all about. The Heritage Foundation’s Jay Greene, Madison Marino, and I published a report closely examining so-called “book bans.” The term itself is deeply misleading, as the media has accepted the expansive definition of “ban” offered by PEN America, a leftwing advocacy organization. According to PEN, if a book is removed, reviewed, and then put back on the shelves, it has been “banned.” And if the school moves the book to a guidance counselor’s office, or places a parental permission requirement on it, it has been “banned.” So, we set out to determine how many of PEN’s alleged 2,532 “banned” books were actually still available. The answer: about three fourths of them. Don’t believe it when the media tells you that “book banning” has anything to do with race. Parents have certainly objected to books dealing with race. For example, PEN America listed the Black Lives Matter-inspired The Hate U Give as the fifth-most banned book. But we found it available in every single school library in question. Parents might object, but school districts aren’t obliging. And don’t believe it when the media tells you that “book banning” is all about LGBT issues. As the Washington Post documented, only seven percent of book challenges contained the term “LGBT” without also containing the term “sexual.” (Although those challenges may have contained terms like pornographic or obscene.) All of the top 10 most removed books contained extremely sexually explicit passages, and more than half regarding heterosexual relations. Why are we even having this debate, then? Well, part of the answer is that the Democrats thought they had a winning rhetorical issue. “Book banning” certainly polls badly. And it’s hard to argue against when the media won’t even allow you to say what’s actually in these books. So, you can understand the cynical calculus behind Democratic politicians lining up to effectively insist that anyone who objects to p*rn in school libraries is a bigot. But there’s actually something deeper and more intentional to it. Senator Mike Lee played a clip of Deborah Caldwell-Stone, the director of the American Library Association’s Office for Intellectual Freedom. Caldwell-Stone advocated for: “sustained messaging that reframes this issue, that takes it away from the idea that these are inappropriate for minors, or sexually inappropriate for minors, and promote them as diverse materials and programming that are about inclusion.” Why reframe obscene material as “diverse” or “inclusive”? Because of a political agenda. Emily Drabinski, the head of the American Library Association, is a self-proclaimed “Marxist” who recently declared that “public education needs to be a site of socialist organizing [and] I think libraries really do too. … We need to be on the agenda of socialist organizing.” A hundred years ago, Marxists pursued a strategy of leveraging sex education to break familial bonds and refashion society. It might sound too strange to say that something similar is going on today. And yet, America’s most prominent sex education organization is literally named “SEICUS: Sex Ed for Social Change.” Most parents would not embrace the notion that public employees should teach their children lessons about sex on behalf of political agendas. Indeed, most parents would not approve in general of public employees providing their children with sexually explicit material for any reason. And yet, Democrat politicians and the media have been running defense on behalf of p*rn in school libraries for their own partisan gain. Maybe that will stop soon. But sadly, too many in public education are ideologically committed to the proposition that exposing kids to sexually explicit material is good because it’s “inclusive.”
