I hate when you fight..../s

[American in Israel]

It’s just the way Imams herd sheep, if they ever stop the rage party they might notice that Allah seems to really hate Muslims. I have rarely ever seen so cursed lands than the middle east.

[American in Israel]

Never heard him say he spoke for God, did hear you falsely accuse him though. I suspect you have a chip on your shoulder.

Squatting over the graves of their own dead and pretending to be a suitable substitute for Old Glory....

A few minutes of research will tell you this guy was a nut. This was not a political act.

[Lockbar]

I am surprisingly personally unmoved by the shotgun attack on the newspaper office. I guess I just don’t like the news media, in any shape or form,

[Elsie]

For the foundation of our country depends on a free press able to probe and report without fear of retribution.

HMMMmmm…

I somehow MISSED this part.

And for everyone who has a “Hate Has No Home” here sign: that’s like putting up a “Gun Free Zone” on your front door, you dummies.

They need one like THIS:

You don’t show me anything other than that the devil has crawled up your arse and set up shop.

Have you met dsc?

[Elsie]

Your own human vanity is vomiting all over your attempts to claim him.

I've read stuff this this; somewhere...

[Elsie]

Some folks in this thread seem to think they are being attacked.
By other folks in this thread...

[Buckeye McFrog]

uh....no, it’s an attack on some very unfortunate individuals who happened to work for an organization against which some nutball had an axe to grind.

Nothing more to it really than that.

“Newspaper killings an attack on all Americans.”

Nonsense. Utter BS.

Re: “The killing of five staffers at an Annapolis, Md., newspaper is an attack on all of us.”

Wanna bet?

By the way...

I read that the Annapolis newspaper endorsed Trump in 2016.

Has that been confirmed?

>>I can behave so badly that it will provoke you to a display of anger, and when my bad behavior provokes you to behave almost as badly as I, I win.

While all politically motivated mass killings assaults all Americans in the sense that are national resolve is to resolve political differences at the ballot box, not with violence.

However, journalisits are not singularly or specially entitled to our rejection of political violence, any more than any other Americans. They deserve the same respect as other Americans, but not more than. They are not somehow “above” all other Americans.

I have long ago disabused myself from buying what the press is selling about itself as a “free press”.

I grew up thinking the term meant the press was POLITICALLY independent and could be relied to just report facts.

I learned over my liftetime that “the press” is very poltical animal and the opposite of being “free” of bias or political agendas.

Because of that “the press” has lost the respect it thinks it is due from me. I do not consider it “free” at all. It is a slave to political bias.

I buy a newspaper when I need to start a fire or have a painting project. I buy for its intrinsic value.

You were expecting something intelligent or honest from lying child pimping propaganda whores aka journalists.
