What’s next? More juvenile name calling on your part?

Saying "More Dirt on Northam - He Should Resign Immediately" isn't exactly tough reading comprehension...especially after I made a list and specifically said he should apologize for that list.

I guess every poster doesn't have a 5th grade reading level or higher and I should spell it out more obviously.



So when you made the BS claim about me having a posting history of pretending to be a democrat to stir the pot for the GOP all you have is this thread that is only minutes old, and even this is based on your bad reading comprehension...all while saying that you hate BS and reading my mind if I care about this or not....lol and you want to call me juvenile for pointing out your nonstop BS.

You are a troll.

Good night, troll.

First they attacked Judge Brett Kavanaugh for uncorroborated allegations against him in high school, the story for which was refuted by ALL of the people the accuser identified to corroborate it. She could not and did not ever even identify where or when this supposedly happened. Then the FBI was called in to conduct a 7TH investigation of Kavanaugh, which also determined that these allegations were unsubstantiated.

And STILL the hateful and completely unprincipled Democrat left, including their political leaders at the highest level and the mass media went ALL-IN to DESTROY this man. For unsubstantiated allegations made against him supposedly from his time in HIGH SCHOOL.

But wait, there is more.

This last week, we watched a 15 year old child - in HIGH SCHOOL - become the target of the nationwide Democrat left social media lynch mob and smear machine, which the leftist mass media was only too pleased to take the lead on, yet again. For standing and smiling - while being harassed, verbally assaulted and insulted by a group of especially despicable leftist racist bigots and a pathologically lying native American man who apparently enjoys claiming military honors that are not his to claim.

This HIGH SCHOOL kid was waiting for his bus after attending a protest march in Washington DC, and when he was confronted by these people, he stood there and smiled (Smirked the racist bigot leftists and the media called it, because these media people take pride in behaving like relentless thundering a__holes).

Current day and former HIGH SCHOOL kids are targets for Democrat leftists these days.

But will they hold their own people to the same standards that they attack others with?
no, they will not.

fantastic post, repped.

Good night, troll.

Where in your OP does it say he should apologize for your list?

Do you have any original thoughts on this topic, or only what you’ve copied from news sites?

How’s this thread of yours, for starters: “Grammar is a Racist and Unjust Language Structure (speech, military, Michigan)” ? Was it hard for you to feign such concern for grammar being racist?

Or: “Faulty New Left Logic: Andrew Yang (unemployment, illegal, healthcare, border)”. Gotta love how you conflate one man’s opinion with “lefti[ist] logic”?


Got any more names for me?

Now would you like to have a dialogue or do you want to keep twisting my words and going in for gotcha moments which probably border on TOS violations?
How was I twisting your words.? You repeatedly said that this sort of thing happened in the 80s in Virginia. That would suggest that it was common thing, no? If it wasn't common, one would imagine that people would be called out for it.

If the med school didn't have anyone in administration proofreading yearbooks before they went into publication, then they wouldn't know the contents. Do you know for sure what happened? Did admin know and approved of it? Or was it up to the students to police themselves? AFAIK, I haven't seen these questions answered anywhere. If you have a link, please post it.

But what you are missing is that today's SJW's judge all past statements and actions by today's politically correct standards. The context that was acceptable when it happened no longer matters. Every one is now judged by today's standards.

My guess is that once the initial shock wears off he'll get a pass from the media and the Democratic hierarchy on account he's a Democrat and given his anti-gun and his pro-full term abortion stance.

I just heard on television that Northam just released a video on Twitter stating that he is not resigning.

Good night, troll.

Question: in the past, when I referred to someone as a 'troll', I was kicked off for a few days. Why are you allowed to do so?



It is an honest question, for it really happened to me.
