Yet another completely ignorant response. You obviously didn't even bother watching the video before posting that twaddle. The protesters in the video were predominantly your typical white left wing nuts screeching "Not my president! Not my president!" - perhaps you may see yourself in one of the protests.

For someone who claims ad nauseam that he doesn't know who Brian Stelter is and never watches CNN why are you posting in this thread?

I always tune in to the threads where people are stalking Hillary or CNN. Ya, I never heard of alka Seltzer or who ever he is. I just like watching what the crazies have to say. I`m 69 years old and I`ve been watching protests that become riots all my life. It`s just another snooze fest unless they`re out to murder politicians and beat up the police. I`ve never seen that before in this country. Way to go Trump! We`re the new Guatemala! As the great man himself might say about his friends spreading feces on the Capitol walls "It`s never been done before". Then comes the cheers from the red hat thugs.

I rest my case.
It's obvious he didn't even bother to watch the video before posting because 90+% of those protesting are white. He just foolishly assumed the video was from the *mostly peaceful protests*. Apparently those who only read two newspapers are uninformed.

Did you know about the Tulsa riots where whites burned down the most successful Black neighborhoods. The same thing was done to them in Wilmington N.C. 120 Blacks were murdered during the New York draft riots in 1863. Your lack of knowledge regarding America history is anything but laughable. Your local library is probably open this afternoon.

My lack of knowledge on this? Oh my God, you so pathetic, that Miriam-Webster has your mug posted next to the definition of the word as an example. January 6th was nothing but a bunch of brainless a-holes who thought it would be a good idea to ruin what was originally a peaceful protest, into a day of nonsensical events.


No one was trying to overthrow the government. Not one person. Chewbacca man was not our biggest threat that day. And please don't educate me on our nation's History, because I know all about Tusla. I am well aware that once Grant became President, we had Black communities rise up with a "do it ourselves" attitude. And many Black neighborhoods did so well, that just about everyone got a taste of what wealth was like. I have watched tons of documentaries on seen tons of photos, of thriving Black communities. Black owners seeing the success of their business. Black-owned banks being able to provide their community a safe place to deposit one's money. Black being able to spend their money and enjoy themselves.


Just for a bunch of angry racists to burn it all down because they found a way to make it on their own. My Mother and Uncle were stuck in my Grandparent's car on a road trip the day MLK was assassinated, and was stuck in DC watching Blacks rioting the streets. And while they were terrified, they knew they had every good reason to be upset. Progress was being made, just for one a-hole to take it from them. Those people didn't use that night as an opportunity to nab a free TV or a bunch of sneakers. They did it to let America know, "this is a problem, and we're going to do something about it."


Those riots we had to deal with all of 2020 will never hold the same merit. It was nothing but an excuse to steal, destroy as much property as possible, and beat the crap out of anyone that so much looked at BLM supporters the wrong way.


But you already knew that, which is why you pathetically had to flip the subject. Seriously, you're a joke. How about you take your ass to the library, because I know my history.

Here you go Gramps! This was when you seemed pretty annoyed that CNN+ had to be shut down. Hence your logic of CNN needing to dumb themselves down in order to do well. Which means you think highly of them. And of course, right on cue, is your "BUT FOX NEWS!" argument.

FOX is the go to channel in the trailer parks.

Oh, and I get bonus points for these ones. For a guy who "subcribes to 2 newspapers and watches just a little bit of local news," you sure do seem to be bothered by other networks taking hits in ratings. You also have a weird obsession with Fox.

Hey look, found another one! Sorry for the late response on this one; was too busy laughing at how pathetic you are for falling for those accusations towards Tucker Carlson. Once again, for a guy that lectures everyone that all of it is trash, you sure get off on attacking Fox News.

Its hard to navigate into finding something you can 100% rely on. Tucker Carlsons gone nuts and is spinning some fantasy where its OK to be racists and go on about the great replacement theory.

THIS is why we teach our kids some history folks. Yeah even the bad stuff. Is so that we never think this sort of thing is ok. And yet here we are. People have gotten so twisted up inside...they think this stuff is ok. ITS NOT. Seriously. Used to be Id say CNN, but honestly its not been what it used to be. Or maybe when I was younger I wasn't paying as much attention?

Best factual reporting? Christian science monitor.

But their coverage is limited. Ive just found it refreshingly honest.

As much as I laugh at the nonsense he posts, it's also something we need to be serious about. There's hundreds of thousands, if not millions of gmagoos out there, who are so easily brainwashed. They claim they look at the facts, but they never follow the facts. What they follow is whatever current lie the Democrats morph into a trend to spread their message. It's become this unhinged Socialist movement. Their "reliable sources" (heh, see what I did their Stelter?) are nothing but advocates for their party. They carry out whatever agenda the Democrats tell them to.


And suckers like gooey always fall for it. Then they claw their eyes out, foam at the mouth, and scream how it's everyone else's fault. They deflect and spin the narrative. And it's because that's all they can do. But Americans are waking up, and the truth has been coming out.

I have never lived in a fantasy world, based upon the wisdom of George Costanza: "It's not a lie if you believe it."
Also, having a warped obsession with Fox News and Orange Man Bad; they must really terrify you.
Must be tough to face those demons daily, yet concoct absurd, antifactual twaddle at the same time.
