Racism is alive and well

[DoubleBarrel]

[Please re-read my post. I said all radio and television news is garbage. I watch none of it unless I happen to see CNN, Fox, or MSNBC on at the gym. I don't know who Special Ed is and I have never seen Rachael Maddow. I have seen Piers Morgan, but that' only because CNN was on at my gym.

I told you I read the Economist, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Washington Times, NY Times when I can.

That's why I don't get emotionally invested in these ridiculous issues. I do like debating though. After all I do have a degree in political science. I actually consider myself a political centrist.

Ok, I call bull shit.

You have a degree is political science, and you don't know who Special Ed is, you've never seen Rachel Maddow, and only saw Piers morgan at the gym

Sharpton says vigils will be followed by a conference next week in Miami to develop a plan to address Florida's "stand-your-ground" law. The law gives people wide latitude to use deadly force if they fear death or bodily harm.

I don't get why they would think getting rid of that law would help. It wasn't even used in this case. Not too mention, it seems to be used by many black folks in Florida

^^^^ More blacks have used the SYG law in Florida than all the other racial groups combined. Mr Z, did not even use the SYG law in his defense, it has nothing to do with this case. His defense was simply self defense in that he was fearful of grievous injury at the hands of Mr M. SYG never came into play.

People in other states have no business telling folks in any other state what their laws should be like. If you don't like the laws in any given state, just don't live there. If the SYG needs to be changed it is the responsibility of the voters in Florida to make that decision not bystanders from elsewhere. If there was no shit to get stirred up, people like Jackson and Sharpton would have no function. They create hatred situations out of nothing to justify their existence. Racism is perpetuated by these kinds of persons.

I wouldn't consider those non-bias sources of information

EDIT: BTW, I'm not taking sides. Just pointing that out

Those aren't exactly "centrist"

No publication is free from bias, but someone who seeks out information over entertainment can counter that by reading both sides. The Economist is a British Publication the leans slightly right, maybe Libertarian, The Wall Street Journal leans Right. The NY Times leans left. I live in D.C. so I try to read the Times and Post. The Post leans left and the Times leans right. Regardless, these sources are actual news. They are not just opinions and pontificating like you would hear on T.V. or the radio, unless you only read the editorial sections in these publications.

Also, yes it's true that I have never seen Maddow or have never heard of Ed. We were taught to think for ourselves, but to also keep us on current affairs by reading a publication like the ones I listed above. These news and radio programs just reinforce peoples' already held beliefs and try to provoke, enrage, and entertain.

I must admit that I do find right wing radio more entertaining. They play rock and metal for the rejoin music and the personalities are over the top. I honestly don't know where to hear left wing talk on the radio, but the stuff I have heard was douchey and pretentious and not entertaining.

Well, here is the other side of racism.

I think you need a little more balance. Those you say are leaning "to the right" IMHO are centrist at best, and the ones you say are "leaning Left" are more than leaning.

At least you make the effort to read multiple sources.

PBS will have your left wing talk radio.


if you prefer I would use the term 'Race Hustler" instead of race trader

WoW!

Now who's the racists? Just like Barkley said, lots of black folks are very racists, and that pretty well proves it. There was no sparing the nigger word and a lot of other racial slurs by all those posters. Shame on all of them.

[RSBro]

well, it's a good thing Barry isn't taking time out of his sweet-ass do-nothing schedule to not stir up and instigate more divisiveness between everyone today.
what a moron.

Trayvon could've been Barry? Yeah, if he was half-white, had a birth father that wouldn't even acknowledge him as his son leaving him with a lifelong dad complex, raised by wealthy white grandparents, and went to the most expensive private schools in the country and never held a job in his life.

yep, fuckin' exact. just when you think Barry can't go to DoucheCON5, he does.

[RSBro]

However, yeah it's time we start taking a look at SYG laws overall... let's do it for Trayvon...

to quote Jeff Goldblum, "God I hate being right all the time".

Written publications are pretty good sources of information if you are reading them for news and reporting. Have you ever actually read all of the publications and papers I listed? What makes you think the the Wall Street Journal or Washington Times are centrist? What are you basing that on? They advertise the Washington Times on the right wing radio stations I listen to and the personalities claim to endorse it.

Publications like the magazines and newspapers mentioned are far removed from any of the entertainment, editorial news sources on T.V. or radio. My constitutionalist, tea party supporting professor, for example, read the NY Times (left leaning) along with The Economist. News reported in outlets like these are fact checked. T.V. and radio media can pretty much spout out whatever opinions the want. Frequently, they just read articles from publications like the ones I mentioned and editorialize. They don't give you real news.

None of the sources I mentioned are anywhere near as biased as MSNBC, Fox News, or any of the online conservative or liberal sites.
