The guy had a rainbow flag in his room! Therefore we should ban the rainbow flag now right? It's a symbol of hate after all.

It is a symbol of division. The division of butt cheeks that is. Zing!

Let's end racism 30 pages later. Let's talk about how we are going to stop talking about racism !

We'll settle it with a good old fashioned football game. Then we'll dump gatorade over our heads, pound some beers, eat hot pockets then go to sleep.

There. racism solved.

If the NFL is anything to go by, concussing a bunch of grown men doesn't seem like the best way to fix anything...

Ugh. And don't get me started on that. ***...Steelers...signing Michael Vick...arrr....

Mad about him killing dogs that is tame compared to what other NFl players do rape and domestic violence !

I'm sorry but people are more important than dogs. And I love dogs especially golden retrievers.

I loved Vick when he was an Eagle. Now he is a dog murdering pig and the Steelers should be ashamed.

I don't watch the NFL for a moral compass though I watch it cause what else is on Sunday at 1 pm ?

I can't fault anyone who legitimately thinks this way.

But knowing these pieces of ***are making millions of dollars a year to play a game and get away with terrible things really doesn't sit well with me.

you know. Those damn feelings again.

Edit: Also, Netflix and Amazon Prime never close.

I've looked for an NFL alternative there is nothing on Sunday afternoon. And no I don't consider Netflix an option any day of the week ! I don't like movies that much though.

What, too good for Feed the Children paid programming?

I prefer the Ronco roaster paid program !

YouTube Video Placeholder

I remember feeling like I was going to puke watching him make Ron's 2 Minute Clam Sauce for his pasta maker informoercial

He's been arrested 3 times since the Treyvon trial for various domestic disturbances including threatening his girlfriend with a gun twice and throwing a wine bottle at her after they broke up, but the charges in all 3 were dropped at the request of the victim or when they recanted their story.

Seriously, this guy was tormented by the poison that is liberalism.

This is a man who burdened himself every time a reporter used the phrase "out in the field" because he felt it was a reference to cotton fields and was therefore a racist micro aggression.

Remember guys and girls it's not "PC" it's "treating people with respect" or else. Micro aggressions will no be tolerated.

What a boring game this is.
You mean the same attack Trump himself condemned, saying that isn't the way to solve problems?

You can preach hate from coast to coast then just absolve yourself of any responsibility by condemning unstable people's reactions to it.

So, when you don't agree with somebody, it's considered hate speech now?

Go figure.

Show me a quote from Trump (with sources please, video and/or audio only) of him saying that we should go beat up random people.

I know you won't find it.

But anyway, if you are attributing this attack on Trump, I can also attribute every single hate crime starting from the Martin case where a black person has attacked white people and/or businesses (aka looting in Ferguson) from Obama's "if I had a son, it would be like him" comment.

The point was that politically-tangential violence gets ascribed to an ideology when it can simply be explained by people being terrible.

Yet the same people who beat the person will hear that and think that the homeless Latino man was a problem they had to solve in the ultimate wisdom of Trump and themselves. A problem that they just shouldn't have solved with violence!

I mean it was trump himself who said a couple of days ago at that press conference where Ramos was booted from. That he would have the illegals that are into crime out of here so fast our heads would spin. Of course people will hear his nonsense and act because a man on fire causes fires.

This whole immigration hatred coming off of a chunk of the Republican party is toxic.

Yea let's go back to hating white people !

The perpetrator attributed it to Trump. Trump said the Mexican government was sending rapists and murderers over the border. That's hate speech.

Trump is not inspiring hatred or violence towards Mexico...


What is not protected by the first amendment are "fighting words"

There are certain well-defined and narrowly limited classes of speech, the prevention and punishment of which have never been thought to raise any constitutional problem. These include the lewd and obscene, the profane, the libelous, and the insulting or "fighting words" those that by their very utterance inflict injury or tend to incite an immediate breach of the peace. It has been well observed that such utterances are no essential part of any exposition of ideas, and are of such slight social value as a step to truth that any benefit that may be derived from them is clearly outweighed by the social interest in order and morality.

So you may not like what Trump is saying but to elevate it to hate speech is ridiculous.

Chaplinsky v. New Hampshire, 1942

1. Hate speech may have a legal application, but it isn't exclusive to legal proceedings.

2. Freedom of speech protects you from criminal prosecution and censorship from the government, not from responsibility, monetary or otherwise.

There are consequences to preaching hate like he is, and those consequences are often paid by innocent bystanders at the hands of unstable people.
