We saw what happened to Ray Rice’s girlfriend. We didn’t need to see the video of him throwing a haymaker, knocking her out, and dragging her out of the elevator. We knew what happened. And we responded appropriately before the video came out. Yessiree.

Originally posted by Brenthoven View PostIncorrect. I said both sides need to be heard/reported on. I have maintained that. One might think that one side is ridiculous, but it still needs to be reported on.
That's always been out there. But the overwhelming opinion of it being a cruel side is what you see.
Here's an honest question- do you NEED to hear an argument FOR slavery? There is another side to that whole argument after all. Is that something we should report and validate?
Since there was the holocaust, do we NEED to hear the side that thought killing all Jews was a good idea?
No, you don't need to hear reasons for morally horrible ideas.

Originally posted by Brenthoven View PostThey ARE reporting it. Both sides. This is my point. You're surprisingly missing it (for real, I'm astounded you're missing it). According to some here, Trump's reason is so ridiculous (and I agree it's ridiculous), it doesn't need reporting. Yes, it does. One must report why he is doing what he is doing. Why he thinks this is a reasonable action (which it isn't, according to the vast majority of us).
When they try to bring out their other justifications, it makes people even more angry.
Why are you not seeing the other side reporting? You call us who are upset blind, and you are missing your entire argument right in front of your face.
Still, that does not mean a morally repugnant side even deserves to be heard. Unless you think that the economy of slavery is a reason that should be listened to... Or that racial purity excuses are somehow a reason to listen to, and try to reason with.
We are not talking long term healthcare policy here, we are talking basic human rights, and cruelty to people.

Good night.
Back in the 70s, if Walter Cronkite said something happened, 99% of people would accept it at face value. "The most trusted man in America" wasn't just a marketing slogan - it was the truth. The news media themselves put some chinks in that integrity over the years, but Trump and his ilk have blasted holes in it with nuclear weapons. When people won't accept a description of the facts as factual, then the media absolutely must show the facts, not just describe them, so the people have no excuse - they've seen it for themselves firsthand. In the 70s, maybe that audio could have been described as gratuitous, but not anymore, and the blame for that is squarely on Trump and his ideologue supporters who use every trick in the book to avoid accepting the facts.If you don't change the world today, how can it be any better tomorrow?

jfc. ICE is reportedly dangling family reunification as an incentive to drop asylum claims.

They're telling parents they can be reunited w/ their kids at the airport — but only if they sign a voluntary order to be deported back to the country they fled.https://t.co/F5biikXa0d
Immigration lawyers are highly skeptical that these agreements will be honored. (The Trump admin has already deported many parents w/o their kids).
— Caroline O. (@RVAwonk) June 25, 2018
It really looks like they're tricking people into dropping their asylum claims by using their kids as bait.https://t.co/h9DD43StX7

the average Trump voter will not believe what is reported, especially if it is without the ability for them to see/hear it themselves
you're being ridiculousLast edited by BassAle; 06-25-2018, 08:00 AM.

Remember when everyone DID think the earth was flat? Any reason to hear some lunatic say the earth is round?Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.
