| Latest Post: Started By: Rank: Category There is no movement in the United States to kill people in the name of second amendment rights but there is a movement that has murdered 1,200,000 children in the name of women's rightsThe silver tongued talking heads on the magic living room box would have us believe that the country is in an uproar over the alleged murders of 26 people at an elementary school in Newtown, CT. An investigation is still pending. But the allegations are flying. Generally speaking, the anti-constitutionalists who don't own guns, have never fired guns and certainly have limited ability to identify them, would be willing to take away one of our most important constitutional right because they believe it would make them more "safe". None of the gun violence in America has been committed in the name of gun rights. Also, keep in mind, these anti-constitutionalists generally are of the same demographic that also believes that murdering 1,200,000 American children in 2012 in the name of women's rights is acceptable. Member CommentsmythravereAbortion lets talk about that. First let me say I get where each side is coming from. And I can respect both. But the way in which the message is conveyed from both sides just ticks each side off at each other. Therefor no rational debate takes place. Republicans would do well to calm down what they say and present it in a different but more palatable manner. Appeal to abortion supporters by making the case the being against abortion isn't about being anti-choice but having a deep respect for life from the moment of conception until death. And that no body is wanting to limit choice but preserve precious life. Yelling murderers just p1sses people off. Posted 66 days ago. TiredofitCombine these three factors and you have a textbook recipe for yellow journalism; a perfect storm representing all the reasons why people no longer trust the mainsteam media to be fair, balanced and accurate. The scientific record shows quite clearly that current temperatures are significantly cooler than the 4,000-year average, yet the media uses a seriously flawed study to claim the opposite. Global warming alarmists put their trust in the media, while global warming realists put their trust in the science. Posted 66 days ago. Tiredofit. There are several reasons for this. First, the news media is prone to overhype the news events of the day. Hype sells newspapers and attracts viewers. This is the case for all news topics and certainly applies to global warming. Second, fear captivates people. This is one of the reasons why television and print news contains so much bad news and so little good news. A single breathless report of impending global warming doom is going to rope in more viewers and readers than a whole collection of reports explaining that current temperatures are actually quite cool in historical perspective. Third, it is no secret that the media drifts left on many issues, and drifts left on environmental issues in particular. Posted 66 days ago. mythravere" You are allowing them to do so if you dont try and stop them." How can I stop them when everyone else is slap fighting each other and thumbing their noses at each other? When the lemmings run to the cliff the smart ones step the heck out of the stream and let everyone else dive off the cliff. I'm just one guy caught in the current. Posted 66 days ago. mythravere"Man thrives in warming cycles and suffers in cold cycles, that is a fact. We should embrace a warming trend." We could very well do that. But we had better be on our A game if we do. Areas that are food growing regions now may not stay that way in warming earth. Climate change can be also described as seasonal weather pattern disruption. What if the Rocky Mountains started getting significant less snowfall. Do you know what that would mean for people who depend on the runoff to feed the rivers they get their water from. Have you seen how low Lake Mead has been in recent years? Simple examples of what I am talking about. What if we had to real quickly build massive desalination plants to make fresh water and then pump it to our food growing regions because seasonal rainfall cant sustain the crop yields we need. Is there any plan out there to deal with that? As far as I know no. Posted 66 days ago. TiredofitHarry I am sure you entertain the thought that you are somehow wise and sage. You are not. You are a phoney and you know it. Posted 66 days ago. Tiredofitagain I ask. why would you allow the GOVT to take your liberties and money. You are allowing them to do so if you dont try and stop them. Posted 66 days ago. harryandersonI don't claim to be an expert on God. I do claim to read my Bible. Posted 66 days ago. TiredofitMyth we agree that the earth goes through cycles much as you describe. Why would we ever hand over our liberties to a failing GOVT to protect us from somegthing that they have no control over? Posted 66 days ago. mythravereI dont support surrendering my liberties to anyone. I dont view the government as evil. Its just loaded with idiots put in power by idiots. Thats why I dont vote. I dont believe in the lesser of two evils. I have not once seen a candidate I can totally support. You either strive for excellence or you wallow in mediocrity. And so goes our government. People set the bar way way too low when it comes to politicians. There is a right way and wrong way to do things. Any other way and you're just cobbling things together. Halfa55ing things may work for awhile but it will catch up with you. So why not do it right always. Measure twice cut once! And so goes the government.... We got what we deserve. Posted 66 days ago. harryanderson"SO MYTH by your own words, its possible for the climate to vary based on NATURAL causes and NOT CARBON. Yet you still persist on the notion that we are causing this warming (however mild) trend. How can you justify this." That's easy to answer. A given condition may have more than one cause.
