Liberals have become so radicalized they have now become what they use to hate

[kaz]

We "evolved" it into a society where people like you, with your pitch-fork mentality, are marginalized, for very good reasons

The problem is you're doing that with pitch forks...

Funny how some lefties call the Constitution a document that was written by rich white slaveholders -- presumably a bad thing -- while others try to take credit for it.

Just admit you want to get rid of it and establish an authoritarian European-style Social Democracy.

That would give you folks yet another excuse to avoid the point of the thread, too!

Win-win!

It's why I'm not buying what PMH is saying. Liberals today hate anything America stands for.

No, it's with shame actually. That's the normal tool of society.

You are incorrect, and entirely childish, as usual.

People tolerate a certain about of nonsense and misbehavior from their children, but what crosses the line gets them spanked. That doesn't make them Intolerant, it means they have common sense and tolerance, like all things in life, has its limits.

lol.....you mean like when liberal school admins arrest grade school children for bringing a squirt gun to school or pointing their finger and saying 'bang!'......?

when it comes to their agendas liberals have NO tolerance for common sense.....

Have common sense, don't be an emotional partisan hack, like you just were.

you're either ignorant or in denial.....like most liberals....

Zero tolerance policies are turning schools into zero common sense institutions. It is not an exaggeration to state that the public schools are becoming the bastions for conditioning our young people to live in a fascist police state devoid of common sense, any understanding of child psychology and any semblance of enjoying civil liberties.


A "zero tolerance" policy is one that enacts harsh punishment for any violation of school rules, without exceptions and without any consideration of mitigating circumstances.*

Zero Tolerance for guns is not about school safety, it is about gun control. Zero Tolerance for bullies is not about school safety, it is about legitimizing and promoting homosexuality. Zero Tolerance in general seems to be mechanism used by teachers and school administrators to escape the burden of tough decisions, avoid charges of favoritism, and let the local police do their dirty work.

There are many cases surfacing, all over the country, in which Zero Tolerance has trumped common sense. An eight-year-old was suspended from school for three days, for pointing a breaded chicken finger at a teacher and saying "Pow, pow, pow." Two eight-year-olds were charged with "making terrorist threats" because they were playing cops and robbers with a paper gun. And the list goes on and on.

Someone at the Rutherford Institute stated it well: "By refusing to consider each individual's personal history and the intentions that inspired their actions, zero tolerance policies deny the unique worth and dignity of every person."1 Zero Tolerance policies put teachers and principals in the position of having to make irrational decisions in relatively simple cases. It makes no sense to suspend children for playing cops-and-robbers on the playground or giving a cough drop to a friend.

Not when it stands for the right things. Don't hold your breath these days.

THe old liberals from the 50s and 60s wouldn't recognize the so called liberals today. Those guys fought for freedom of speech, even speech no one likes. They fought for color blind policies in education and the workplace.
Today's libs have totally turned their backs on that. They fight for speech codes. The fight to restrict political speech. They fight for racial preferences and quotas in the name of erasing racism. WTF? They are not liberals in any sense. They are marxists and totalitarians.

Here is a liberal from the 30's, 40's and 50's.

"Republicans approve of the American farmer, but they are willing to help him go broke. They stand four-square for the American home--but not for housing. They are strong for labor--but they are stronger for restricting labor's rights. They favor minimum wage--the smaller the minimum wage the better. They endorse educational opportunity for all--but they won't spend money for teachers or for schools. They approve of social security benefits-so much so that they took them away from almost a million people. They think modern medical care and hospitals are fine--for people who can afford them. They believe in international trade--so much so that they crippled our reciprocal trade program, and killed our International Wheat Agreement. They favor the admission of displaced persons--but only within shameful racial and religious limitations.They consider electrical power a great blessing--but only when the private power companies get their rake-off. They say TVA is wonderful--but we ought never to try it again. They condemn "cruelly high prices"--but fight to the death every effort to bring them down. They think American standard of living is a fine thing--so long as it doesn't spread to all the people. And they admire of Government of the United States so much that they would like to buy it."
President Harry S. Truman - October 13, 1948

Thanks. We liberals tend to expend too much energy on PC and such and sometimes lose sight of the real issues that HST, being the no-nonsense type, spent his life fighting.

You think this thread has a "point"?

Wanna let us know what it is?

I'm still waiting for some kind of answer to this though:

Uh...

Can you state that in something resembling a complete sentence? Something where, y'know, pronouns are attached to something?

Just say "I don't have a good response to your question, Mac."

It's okay. I know.

I don't -- because you haven't asked one.

Who the **** is "they"? Opie and Anthony? Liberals? The public? The cast of the Rocky Horror Picture Show? What were "they" saying? Back "when"?

That isn't a question. It's a list of conjunctive adverbs floating in space.
Now if you consider that some kind of "victory", well you're easily amused.

Smatter? Can't think beyond pronouns?

And the GOP is all of those things, clearly.

Thread summary:

Opie and Anthony mock some things a few dumb liberals did (which is great, because liberals mock them too), but then went full metal retard and extended it to all liberals.

Not being capable of recognizing suckass logic, all the conservatives here immediately jumped on that same stupid bandwagon.

So why do almost all conservatives fail so badly at logic? That is, do they become conservatives because they're stupid, or do they self-lobotomize via the teachings of the conservative cult?

In any case, it illustrates the problems the USA faces, the way that its conservative half tends to only respond to emotion instead of reason.

zero tolerance is exactly what's happening in the public schools....the libs (orwhateverlabeltheygobyatthemoment) are enforcing zero-tolerance in the interest of their ideology....which of course is to control and suppress the individual and force children to learn leftie rules such as their anti-gun policy...

 

[NYcarbineer]

Opie and Anthony are the guys who got fired from radio years ago for doing a bit where they had a link to a couple who were pretending to **** inside St. Patrick's Cathedral. It led eventually to the Catholic League, among others, demanding they be fired. They were.

Speaking of 'tolerance'.
