My point is that we should do better. All around. We are capable of being better than this. And we should be able to do it together.
I think you’re right. The non-conservative media does tend to show a narrative. The conservative media does the same. FOX played the same burning BLM protest for months, nightly, even when talking about other locations and stories where nothing happened.

But, CNN and MSNBC are quick to the punch on the other side as well, though more truthful than conservative media by far.

And I’m trying NOT to choose a side. Merely saying reporting sucks. And violence shouldn’t be the answer nor should it be ignored or promoted when convenient.
I think they it’s wrong in both instances and don’t appreciate the presentation (or lack thereof) from either extremes.
Violence period. Political or otherwise. America has better tools.
But that means his initial premise is wrong, not right as you allude.
Regardless, the news is being reported and thankfully so. Without it, we would be in a foxland Russia state system.
Is there some bad media out there? Yes. Do we trust everything we read? No. Are we smart enough to triangulate information to digest it? Dems are pubs are not.
We can’t argue, duuuuuuurrrrr I wasn’t there so I don’t really know what happened. That’s GSClown level of stupidity. That’s why these retards are so lost in conspiracy land.
Maybe I should have read it more closely. I’m tired today. Not too hopeful in relation to political discussion. But, I do like the guy. Seems like a nice fella
Right to personal? Take it easy man. That attitude is the problem. Ur right no matter what and will twist anything to prove whatever you want.
Solid debate though. 
Initial premise was coverage sucks and violence is wrong. Twist and insult away.
Respectfully, I don’t understand the point you are making. Sorry.
Legit point. I mean, let’s all be honest. BLM had some crazy riot stuff happening during some of their protests. Whether or not these are card carrying members or whatever, people in high places praised the marches and thus by not calling out the violence or damage, approved of it.
It is what it is. Wasn’t good, wasn’t right. Wasn’t okay. I don’t know what to tell ya…BLM stole their money, Al Sharpton stole their money, Jesse Jackson and his son stole their money…on Sundays Kreflo Dollar steals their money…at some point, need different leaders.
100% agree.
It’s a shame GSC doesn’t feel the same about the violence at the capital.
Listen- I’m fine with punishing people who planned to go there with bad intentions. Fuck em. They made their bed. Deal with it.
What I’m not ok with is going after people who went there to peacefully protest, we’re allowed into the Capitol facility, and now are under Federal indictment. That’s bullshit. And you know it.
No, that’s a lie. Trump and his administration had bad intentions. You favor those intentions, which were to dismantle our legal processes, violate the Constitution and overturn a legal election and therefore install a dictator. That’s what you’re for. That’s what you support. You’re a liar as usual. Literally, the exact same motivations they had are the same ones you believe in, support, have supported and continue to support.
You have no integrity. You have no honesty. You do, however, have an overwhelming penchant to attempt to remove yourself from any implications or responsibility…time and time again, at every opportunity.
Complete mischaracterization.
We supported a legal contest of the election. We supported peaceful demonstrations.
We didn’t support our government using these instruments to judo those there into criminal acts to ensnare their political opponent and change the narrative to one that they believed favored their cause.
A lie.
Another lie.
A third lie. Every sentence was a lie. You act like we just met you and this is your first day
None of the protesters were allowed in during that time.
Agreed.
I’m simply holding reservation rn as it seems like a thinly veiled “fake news” rhetoric at the onset.
so let’s flesh it out.
Why do you think the coverage of the protests at the Arizona legislature sucks?
What would be a good example of the coverage if one exists? If one doesn’t exist in your opinion, then what should they have done differently?
What is your definition of violence in a protest? Did this cross line into a riot? If so, why?
The way I see it…Is there is no compromise from today’s left…None at all. And yes I know that there are extremists on the right. But right now most republicans I know are moderate, and really don’t give a shit as long as you leave them alone. (yes there are many liberals like this, just a far smaller ratio in terms to total liberals). And this is coming from someone who probably can’t vote republican in the next election (Trump '20 was my first republican vote EVER) depending on how far they go with this Roe vs. Wade shit.
The left REFUSES to leave people the fuck alone and MANY of them today, a large chunk, don’t want to compromise. They want to take you over…Often under the guise of saving you and the world
@Warden84
Now try to explain that to an extremist wack job like djrion…See how he twists it…He’ll never take off all 8 of his BLM bumper stickers no matter what…These fucking maniacs, along with their media, which is MUCH MUCH bigger and louder than say a Fox News…Will defend this BLM bullshit til their fucking graves.
Sick people.
