    Operation to disrupt Trump events.

    Depends on the context, but in an impassioned media there's no such thing as being "fair and balanced" since they have an impassioned agenda to push. The problem comes when you claim to be non-partisan when you are not.

    Operation to disrupt Trump events.

    The "GOP press" is, by definition, partisan and does not pretend to be unimpassioned. The mainstream media, the liberal press, on the other hand, while certainly biased, falsely presents itself as being non-partisan and unimpassioned.

    Operation to disrupt Trump events.

    Some of them are beginning to report on the story. But it took them a little while to get the narrative from the Clinton campaign on how to cover it, apparently. They note some of the things in the video that are bad, because there's no denying that, but the focus is on these two rogue...

    Operation to disrupt Trump events.

    No, that can't be possible. The DNC said there is no evidence that anything said in those videos ever happened, and the things said on the video were meaningless because they were, uhm, yeah, "barroom talk." In any case, everything said in the videos and all of the people in them cannot be...

    The Trump Card...

    I agree. If course, there didn't used to be a two term limit on the President, but then FDR kept getting elected. The negative side to term limits is they are telling people who they can vote for, or more accurately, who they can't vote for. The Founding Fathers set up the House of...

    Operation to disrupt Trump events.

    "Americans United for Change has always operated according to the highest ethical standards," said Brad Woodhouse, President of Americans United For Change. "Scott Foval is no longer associated with Americans United for Change." Translation: It's incredibly unethical to get caught telling the...

    Happens all the time. It's why we have the First Amendment. Remember Melissa Click? The University of Missouri adjunct professor who taught communications at the university's journalism school who tried to silence, and even threatened with physical violence, student journalists at the protest...

    Unless there was a posted notice of no trespassing or something like that, or the property owner objected to him being there, no laws were broken. People can protest on private property all they want if the owner doesn't object. It's not unlike taking pictures while on private property. You can...

    True, but it's a lead pipe cinch the retail property owner knows the laws in that regard. That's why you see a lot of shopping centers with signs that specifically say no soliciting and/or no handbills. And people trying to exercise their freedom of speech in quasi-public spaces is so common...

    Correct, and it is plainly stated in the text you quoted above. I saw no reason to post it again in its entirety, nor did I see any reason to be pedanticly verbose. Just because she gave them a choice of phone numbers call does not diminish the fact that she urged people to call 911. No reason...

    No, no, no. I have already posted the Facebook message in its entirety. There was no reason whatsoever to post it again in it's entirety.Everything I say regarding the Facebook page (or the Tweet) is in the context of the full and complete contents of the post. Again, in addition to posting the...

    There's a lot of people in that video, a lot of claims made. Verifying the authenticity of all that could take a while.

    I do know that Jane Dirrmar is a gun control proponent. In addition to her Facebook post informing her volunteers of the armed Trump supporter and informing them that the police were monitoring the situation (and instructing them to call 911), she replied to a few people who responded. One...

    Just a headsup... Don't go to Wikileaks and read any of the leaked emails. It is illegal for you to be in possession of those emails. Just looking at them online will cause copies to be downloaded in your browser's cache and you will then be committing a crime by being in possession of stolen...

    Nope. No empathy whatsoever for those who conjure up boogeymen in their heads. Being concerned, even afraid, is one thing, and calling the police about those concerns is fine. But to advocate on Facebook that others call en mass if they feel uncomfortable at all is undeserving of empathy...
