You're a dumb dawg.

I've explained to you the context of what I meant multiple times. You also say I've lost my sense of humor, but you do it after insulting me. Also saying I've lost my sense of humor to me implies you are saying you are joking. Which is what I thought at first, but then you kept at it. You seem truly fixated on my usage of the word "dawg".

You broke Riv😂

He can't let it go.

Wouldn't military higher then media? Seeing they release the press releases and approve/deny access to coverage, national security issues, ect?

Depending on whether you like tin foil hats or rabbit holes, you could even argue the FBI/CIA/other security branches are above even civil Government, with all the cloak and dagger shite we know about, let alone what we imagine they do..

Political Correctness More Deadly than ISIS

Which is a bigger threat to America? Terrorists or political correctness? Seems like an easy answer. PC is just an idea, whereas terrorists shoot people and blow things up. But which is easier to stop or contain?

I contend that if the PC movement went away, America would have a much easier time fighting terrorism. Meaning that political correctness will be our undoing, despite the best efforts of intelligence, law enforcement, and the military.

...

In the wake of the Colorado Springs shooting, it was perfectly fine to label the shooter a “Christian terrorist” despite a neighbor saying he’d never heard the shooter talk about religion. If it turns out that Robert Dear carried out the shootings in the name of Christ, then call him a Christian terrorist. We know the female San Bernardino shooter pledged support to ISIS, so it would be fair to call her an Islamic terrorist.

Yet we can’t. Neither could President Obama in his Sunday night oval office address. He did say the shooters were, “embracing a perverted interpretation of Islam.” Only 70 percent of U.S. Muslims have a very unfavorable view of al Qaeda, meaning that close to a third may actually accept this “perverted interpretation.”

Major Nidal Hasan shouted “Allahu Akbar” before he opened fire killing 13 people at Fort Hood. Yet the U.S. government called this “workplace violence.” Not Islamic terrorism, the phrase which is not politically correct.

So why not call it what it is? If it’s Christian terror, so be it. But same with Islamic terror. Instead those who describe it accurately are demonized.

...

The result is predictable. A neighbor of the San Bernardino killers didn’t report suspicious activity “for fear of being called racist.”

...

If citizens are vigilant, many terror plots will be noticed and disrupted. But residents must feel free to speak up, even if their suspicions turn out to be wrong. Even if they are wrong more than right, lives will be saved and we will have a chance at stopping San Bernardino-like plots. But if citizens are afraid to speak up due to political correctness, we all lose as law enforcement can’t do it alone.

I think PC represents a different kind of threat to America. It's not necessarily a physical threat. Rather just a threat to common sense. Like for example the whole calling something Islamic terrorism. We have no real reason not to call it Islamic terrorism if that is what it is. It's not fair to say that it shouldn't be called that because it offends all muslims, even the ones who aren't extremists..while at the same time being so quick to name a thing when it's police brutality. You don't see people asking you to call police brutality by another name because it's offensive to even the good cops.

Being PC used to be mostly just about not being overtly rude to people. But now it also caters to people who unable to accept the harsh truths of the world. We have to shelter them from the truth because it might hurt their feelings.

Also you know how you can't have Confederate flags and shit on government buildings or whatever anymore? Yeah, but you can apparently have a BLM banner on your town hall. I forget which city, but there is a city that did that.

Oh and speaking of the flag, did anyone hear about the recent police sergeant who was fired because she had a confederate flag hanging up on her house? To be specific: she had her police car parked in her driveway, but it's not like she had a Conferdate flag on her police car. She just has one on her house. Someone in the neighborhood complained so she took it down and then was fired.

That is just surreal. Wow.

Yeah, now to be fair the cop did do something stupid. Or rather she said something stupid, she said she wasn't aware the flag was offensive until this incident. So that was a silly thing to say. But still..when the big thing about getting rid of the confederate flag was people saying "oh you can still put your flag on private property" and all that, which is exactly what this women did.

If I were the cop I'd sue. So now we have political correctness potentially costing a city millions of dollars.

Stuff like this is just the beginning.

I don't think that'd work tbh, given that some officials are buying into the PC. They'd just discard complains on that issue and move on to implement more strict PC.

This sorry excuse for a judge is batshit insane. But hey, always remember: SJWs aren't doing any actual harm. Listen and believe, listen and believe...

Now picture an entire generation of people like him.
