Let's start a list: Resorts to name calling Attacks the source of information versus the actual content Keeps repeating the same stupid phrases meant to insult over and over and over....

I'll play your guys game...you are racist for saying that.

Weird...why did Ban previously get banned again?? @BobDole and @Husker_Du...you two are saints!

Agreed...100%. But doesn't change the fact that it is true.

Who doesn't speak English? The professor that wrote it? What I think is misaligned here is the fact that people think because of the context and what was said is somehow diminishing the absolute horrible and sickening treatment of slaves...but what was written has NOTHING to do with that or implies anything other than what it says. To say otherwise is purely trying to find the boogeyman in everything. History is an ugly thing...there are things that have happened that are disgusting...but again...in context and during the time in which things occurred, you can't apply today's norms to that time. Kids should be taught our history!! They should know what has happened. But also should be taught context and what society was like during that time.

The pure emotional responses are so tiresome!! Ugh!! No one can and will ever be able to point out where something was truly banned, or provide any reason as to why certain books removed from school libraries DON'T contain graphic material that is inappropriate for children. As for the other stuff...wow...way to try and find the monster in everything. Why is it the white middle-aged men and women who are all bent out of shape about what the black professor suggested be discussed around the black history?? Give me a freaking break! The guy literally, on TV, completely explained the context in which the one sentence in the whole darn document reads...nope...not good enough for some of you...you have to accuse people of being racist, changing history, banning books, etc. Then try and throw the Native American topic on top of that...absolutely laughable. The Native Americans were doing exactly the very thing you all are complaining the whites did to them before the whites got here. If it didn't happen, we would not be the United States!!! Do you not think that has happened during the formation of every freaking country of the world?? Some of it is still going on. It happened...sucks how it had to happen, but it had to happen. Quit applying today's societal standards to hundreds and hundreds of years ago...so weak minded to do so!!

EXACTLY!!

You think it isn't outlandish to mask kids right now?? Require 3rd graders and above to wear N95's??? For the president to say he wears a mask inside because his wife tested positive isn't outlandish?? By the way...why not actually post something with substance and your opinion versus weak ass one liners...oh that's right, because you can't...I'll wait for the I'm a "Deuce Lover" and "a 30%'er"...

School in Maryland just implemented masking mandates for their elementary school...SMH...so stupid! Oh and Biden is wearing a mask indoors because his wife tested positive. You just can't make this crap up....

Looks absolutely freaking amazing!!

Is that part of the adults GED program? And I don't teach...always thought about it when I was younger as I do like teaching/coaching, but not sure I would have been a good fit for an actual teacher. Instead, I teach and coach executives on leadership and process improvement, and create and develop our corporate management system...oh and my favorite...I get to coach kids wrestling.

SMH...so ridiculous! You think they main motivation was just so he helped their alma mater?? Terrible!

Curious as to what Ban teaches adult learners?? I have a guess but will withhold until I hear what he actual teaches.

I agree...but only if what you said applies to EVERYONE Plasi...not just those that you didn't vote for. We ALL have swallowed internet rumors and other things read on social media...including myself and yourself...the problem is the lens in which people choose to look through when reading/watching those things is where the divergence comes into play. People on both sides do it...some A LOT more than others. My whole thing is, and I'll just pick on you even though you know I do like you Plasi, your enjoyment when the rumors came out that Trump may be charged, and statements you made about Trump BEFORE he was indicted would not mirror those said about Hillary...is that an accurate statement? Also, most people that are complaining about Trump, not all but most, aren't defending Trump as a person, but rather the complete hypocrisy of the whole thing.

Address?? LOL

Maybe this would be a better discussion, or at least know where people stand. Who thinks crime is a major problem in the US and should be a priority for our politicians?

Thing of beauty! I did one a couple of weeks ago and it was amazing!

I have no doubt it isn't just a Chicago problem. And my bad, I thought I read in that article that he was rationalizing away the criminals behavior, but it may have been another article I read. And I am to lazy to go find it, and it doesn't change my main point that suing the car manufacturers is asinine and backwards thinking. It isn't like they are purposely not putting in safety equipment. I guess I am a strong believer in self-responsibility...i.e., if I buy a house that doesn't have locks on the doors and someone breaks in, I sure don't feel like it is the builders fault and thus I sue them...or even stupider, the city I live in sues the builders. I purchased the house knowing there were no locks.

So weird that this turned into a R v D thing. Add on top of that all the "inferring" people are doing versus taking the article for what it says, nothing more, nothing less. The Chicago mayor, regardless of what political party he is from, is suing a car company because criminals steal cars. At the same time in the very article, he rationalizes the criminal's behavior. Never did I or the article say anything about if the police are in fact going after the criminals so not sure why that keeps getting brought up. Anyway, I stand by what I originally said, the mayor is an idiot for suing the car makers...it makes no sense.

Ahh...got it...don't disagree there.

Oh, I didn't take it that way I guess. I took it as money was being spent on going after the car makers versus using that money to go after the criminals...aka, to help the victims. Who knows...guess we will see what he meant if he responds.

Who brought up R or D? I couldn't care less about that...what he is doing is absolutely stupid and backward thinking.

He didn't say the car companies were the victims...the people who got their cars stolen are the victims!! You know the ones who should have justice.

You are right...it was a "strategic choice"...and I think it is completely asinine and quite frankly backwards and wrong thinking. Also, I wouldn't compare it to DeSantis and Disney as DeSantis isn't blaming a corporation for crimes committed by criminals who have no relationship with Disney. I still would like to see where you claim he isn't letting criminals off the hook. Heck, read the article...or any article on the subject, he rationalizes the criminals behavior...and he doesn't even call them criminals.

Mayor Brandon Johnson. “The failure of Kia and Hyundai to install basic auto-theft prevention technology in these models is sheer negligence, and as a result, a citywide and nationwide crime spree around automobile theft has been unfolding right before our eyes.” Can you show me anywhere he is blaming the actual people stealing the cars?
