It kinda works the same way in the U.S. too. When you have a cable or streaming news package it usually includes some news sources automatically, such as MSNBC or Fox. So they reap a profit even though you don't watch them.

tbf, World Service was good back in the day....it used to be very different reporting of the same stories, between "domestic", and "the world" news....

Nope, never lived in the UK. My comment was mostly pointing out that no matter what news source was referenced, there would be at least one person screaming about how biased and terrible it is. (I do the same thing :P ) The more the source is perceived as "left," the more it will get slammed, especially here.

FWIW, facts lean left. And they don't give a shit about feelings or opinions.

I understand finding humor in some of the, seemingly, outlandish conspiracy theories. However, in this instance, I think silence is better than criticism. Trump supporters, and most of the country are, understandably, upset and trying to make sense of what happened.

My personal opinion kind of follows Occom's razor. I think the simplest and most likely explanation is that, after hundreds or thousands of events Trump's security detail has been involved in, they got complacent or even a little lazy. Also, keep in mind that the last attempted assassination was not from a political zealot, but a man with serious mental issues who thought that his actions would impress a famous actress.

Quote from: Smit on July 15, 2024, 08:47 AMFissed that up for ya.  :yes:

Just wondering, how do you guys justify worshiping a guy who has no issues with pretty much destroying the lives of election workers who were just doing their jobs? These people had to move because of death threats and harassment? Is that OK? Understandable? Is this a guy you really want to worship?

There are plenty more examples if you want to look for them.

Georgia poll workers targeted by Trump are cleared of false election fraud claims

You guys are sure quick to praise him as a king like, benevolent overlord so how do you reconcile that with how he thoughtlessly lies to try to win an election he clearly did not win?

Yeah, I know, here comes the chorus of "voter fraud" from the gallery. :rolleyes:

Which is why we can't have legitimate conversations around here. Only a bunch of Trumpers slapping each other on the back and congratulating themselves.

I would think a guy who is honestly interested in having a legitimate conversation would address that conflict.  :whistle:

Oh shut up !!

This is why I've staying out of this conversation and probably will until the smoke clears. It's hard not to come across as being disrespectful even if that's not the intent so it's just better to keep my opinions to myself. At least for a while.
I'll go back to being a conservative, when conservatives go back to being conservative.

I agree Mowens, which is why I stayed out of it for a couple days. But people sure keep bringing my name up even when I do stay out of it.

That, Jeff, is what living rent free means. :)

Trump is alive , My concern is for The Father who took the Bullet intended for Him.

Every sick fuck out there is screaming "He Missed"!! No he didn't.

Prayers for his Family.

and for those calling this Staged. Alex jones is reaping the benefits for comments as such.

Quote from: Newbeeee™ on July 15, 2024, 09:52 AMI was once told, just before walking into a meeting for a hammering by Westland Helicopters, "keep your mouth shut. The worse they can do is think you're a crunt - open it and you'll prove it"

I know that the forum is made up of quite a few staunch trump supporters and an assassination attempt is pretty serious. I haven't posted anything about it online on either front.  He's lucky to be alive. Likely only because he turned his head at the right time.

Well the reason I was pissed is my MS news feed had Nuttin . I learned about it Here.

WTF??

I believe everyone on here has The Respect.

Crackin a joke is part of dealing with extremes. Everyone deals with stress differently.

The Kid I told you about at work would get Mad and Throw wrenches!! LOL!!

And I truly believe there is not one person on here that wants Biden / Trump dead.
