My guess is it will be a short lesson. For the most part its not some big conspiracy the media has in everything they do to influence politics. Its all about money and ratings. Combine that with the fact it all originates in big cities and those tend to be more liberal, its no ones fault really.
I donāt know that the facts of the matter back this up at all.

Probably just chasing the moneyā¦
The planet didnāt explode and the stock market is through the roof, we might just be ok.
Donāt feel too bad for Julian Assange anymore.
So over the last week all the protestors they arrested in Portland, a little over 100 and only 25 of them voted. The others were split between didnāt vote and not even registered to vote. Apparently most or all were released without even getting charged, the city says they are too busy to do all the paperwork and āmightā charge them in the future.
Good Olā Charlie. The two people involved in the shooting will face a judge tomorrow though.
I saw this earlier in the weekend. Fucking thing of beauty. I laughed and laughed and then cried because heās unfortunately totally right. Heās not even that conservative lol.
Man thatās a great video.
Wow a liberal whose head is not up his ass. The man is spot on, that is the way the left has been arguing. Not at all, just insults. They just had their asses handed to them over it. And the thing is the left is doubling down on that foolishness right now with their protests. And all they are doing is making everyone who voted for Trump feel very good, knowing that they personally helped to set theses babies off.
I love watching a protest full of crybabies tearing up their own town. Knowing that I am not anything like those fools brings me joy.
How dare there be consequences to bad behavior.
Hey, Iām invited!
I got a kick out of the different causes/ groups involved in this campus protest.
Come to the flagpoles outside of ā¦Hall to join members of the American Indian Resource Program, Librarians and Lecturersā union and UAW, which represents Academic Student Employees, for reports back from the Standing Rock resistance encampment, where thousands are protesting the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) including ā¦ faculty and students. This peaceful, nonviolent solidarity rally invites the campus community to respond to the election of Donald Trump in creative, positive solidarity with indigenous peoples and voice their loud support for the Constitution, ecological sustainability and for human and civil rights. Support Standing Rock! Black Lives Matter! The people, united, will never be defeated!
Speakers will include Native American student representatives, Black Lives Matter, academic union reps, Senate faculty.
You should wear a āTumpās life mattersā shirt. That would be a good test of your 40 timeā¦
Somebody did some investigating and found that over half the people he asked in one protest did not even voteā¦
What the fuck are they protesting? How do they have the energy to protest and yet not the energy to vote?
I know what they are really doingā¦ They want to riot next to pharmacies, burn them down and steal their pills so they can sell them on the street. Thatās my theory.
In Portland, there are just a lot of homeless young people, some of them anarchists who are just always up for creating some mayhem, right?
Then in places like LA, you have some high school kids who have very real concerns about their families getting deported, and they hope to sway public opinion. This is the very first election most of them can really remember, so I can have some sympathy for those people.
At the university level, you get these very nebulous demonstrations like the one I posted. Is this about protesting Trump? A pipeline? Indigenous people? BLM? Unions? And what exactly are the demands? Itās a little like the Occupy Wall Street movement. It turned out to be all these aggrieved subgroups with very little in common, and not a lot of concrete demands. Kinda hard to know how to measure your success with this type of deal.
And any behavior rewarded is usually repeated. The left wing cities have basically turned on themselves by not sticking to the rule of law. Rioting is a felony.
And the irony is that they are tearing up left wing cities. I am not all that unhappy. I actually find it quite amusing that millenials are giving their older left wing colleagues a taste of what they have been preaching. It must leave a bitter taste in their mouths as they see the young idiots swinging hammers through store windows.
I knew it would be sweet to defeat Hillary Clinton and I knew it would happen. I just didnāt know how good it would feelā¦much better than expected. May the tantrum continue.
On a similar note I am still waiting for someone to point out all of the successful states and large cities that have been run by democrats for a long period of time. I asked that question many months ago and all I could hear were crickets chirping.
It is truly a failed philosophy.
The real fun begins when the left lead by the old socialist himself, Bernie Sanders and that High School principal you always hated, Elizabeth Warren take their party even further left thinking that the reason Hillary lost was because she was not far left enoughā¦LOL can it get any better than this?
People blow this whole deportation fear way out of proportion.
Itās not like there are going to be KGB on street ratting people out leading deportation squads.
We desperately need to get control of our borders, enforce the laws we do have and then get true comprehensive immigration reform.
No country is ever going to make hopping there border fence a-ok.
I feel like people just took the whole thing to mean what ever they want it to mean and act according to what ever they feel like being pissed off about.
We live in a republic. Laws have to be made, then passed and then enforced. We have a congress and senate, there are many voices and ideas that will have influence on whatever ends up happening.
The reason this is an issue at all is that for 30 years people have been ignoring and passing the problem on, because its a tough problem and real people are in volved.
But over time the issue got worse and worse and eventually Americans have had enough.
The language sounds harsh at times but anger breeds harsh language. The solutions, though, will be meaningful, comprehensive and thoughtful.
Weāve been waiting for immigration reform for decades. Hope fully now we will get it.
Itās not about keeping people out, itās about security and proper management of American borders where we know who is here, why they came, what their intentions are, and where applicable, helping people achieve their goals whether itās fair temporary work, vacation, or seeking a new life in the U.S. a secure border benefits citizens and visitors alike.
I am sick of the fear mongering, itās not about fear or hate, itās about fair.
