It was just a suspension, but there was a lot of name calling and insults going back and forth.

Just beat me to it. So insane how CNN will go so far to do something like this. I saw one Twitter post that summed it up perfectly:
joe @joe_pezz Jun 4
Leaked video of CNN staging a fake Muslim protest in London. Lies like this is why the world keeps getting worse

It's not a matter of disagreeing but a matter of brainpower. There are some who are just too damn stupid, and I can't subject myself to reading their shit. In the olden days, I often couldn't restrain myself from telling a select few that the education system failed them. Ignoring them helps.Well for starters they didn't want you to cuss and when I want too I want too. I just believe the moderation was going to be the same as the Ravens site and I like a looser surrounding and there would have been no political section imo.
No matter how much I disagree with somebody I'm not ignoring them. 1st amendment rights.

Doesn't surprise a bit. With all of the news outlets these days competition is fierce and these "journalists" will go to any length to get clicks and views. And I'm not sure there is such a thing as an unbiased source anymore.....maybe BBC? Don't know, hard to tell. You really have to be careful on what you take for fact.

I believe it's either 5 or 6 major corporations that own at least 90% of mainstream media. That's astonishing yet scary at the same time.

It was day two on here and this person was coming up with some stupid stuff and being an argumentative pest.
My visits here are just more pleasant without having to deal with knuckle heads.

A few pages back we were talking about politicians only being in it for themselves.
Here is a clear cut example.....

You need examples of this?

Someone else did.
This person said the vast majority of politicians are in it for service.

Majority, meaning more than half, is something we could never prove. I think its just like any other profession. Some cops are nice...some are assholes.

Most politicians only pretend to give a crap about us.

@ me next time
And I stand by it, at least the ones in Maryland. Grossly incompetent, yes. Selfish, no.
Also, yet another fact check analysis by yours truly found that the cited article is wrong. That exception was amended out of the passed law. :https://www.rallypoint.com/shared-l...ornia-gun-laws-california-political-review--3
And before you call that website shit, here's the actual bill text: http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201120120SB610
If it passed as introduced, exceptions would be granted to elected officials for protection/self defense purpose AS WELL AS applicants who demonstrate good cause.
Christ, do you guys believe everything you read on the Internet, especially from some shit website called joeforamerica.com? I think this is the third time I've debunked some bullshit claim in five minutes of googling.
