lolk then. provide a real source

Is Reuters good enough?

Quote
(Reuters) - The Texas State Board of Education, whose decisions can have national ramifications, on Friday approved nearly 100 textbooks despite criticism the books exaggerated the influence biblical figures had in forming the U.S. system of government.

The Republican-controlled 15-member body voted along party lines to approve the use of the textbooks for all ages of students in the second-most populous U.S. state, with about 5 million children in the public school system.

Once textbooks are approved in Texas, they are often sold nationally and used for years in classrooms across the country.

"I don't think there is any reason to fear these books," board member Thomas Ratliff told reporters. "I think by and large they are going to be very good books."

Critics say the social studies and history textbooks that were approved overemphasize the role that Christianity and biblical figures such as Moses played in the formation of the nation's founding documents while giving little attention to constitutional provisions against the state establishing religion.

They also say world geography textbooks downplay the role that armed conquest played in the spread of Christianity and misrepresent fundamental points of other major religions.

Serious / Re: Why is the whole protest in Ferguson even a thing.
« on: November 26, 2014, 07:45:18 PM »
Any sensible person thinks that bullshit is retarded.

Let me ask you a question. Do you recall the Arab Spring movement? You know, began in 2011 in Tunisia?

If yes, do you know how that entire movement started?
Didn't the large wave of rioting happen after some guy set himself on fire?

Sort of.

Long story short - the man owned a cart where he sold produce. Police seized the cart, after which the man set himself on fire in the police station and later died.

The protests, which sparked the entire Arab Spring movement, began as a protest over police corruption - which, whether or not you think the people for Ferguson are right in their protests, is currently being done in cities across the country - large and small.

Either way, my point is people praised the protests that began in Tunisia (Which were also peaceful that had amounts of violence, arson, etc.), yet we immediately condemn the protests here.

I honestly think the majority of the blame lies on behalf of the media by depicting the false narrative of Michael Brown being an innocent little angel child.

I'm just going to share this - there are riots and "civil unrest" when a sports team wins/loses a championship game, when Joe Paterno was fired, and even at random festivals.

Those protests turn violent, with destruction of businesses and looting, yet there is nowhere near the outrage that has come with the protests here.

I'm just curious as to why that is?
Entitlement.

People feel their team or culture is superior and when they are shown not, they throw huge fits

...And the riots/civil unrest when the team won? Just partying?

I'm just curious as to why that is? Is civil unrest when your sports team wins better than a questionable grand jury decision?

Photos have been released of the Officer, in the hospital with injuires, following the shooting.





... Injuries?

Wait, I thought he said he had to have orbital socket surgery?  Oh wait, that was Fox News reporting an anonymous X-Ray of a skull.  And circulating pictures of a beat-up motorcyclist who died recently.


Yeah, he was apparently really hurt during that scuffle. I think I see a little cut on his lip. Poor thing.
For the record, just because you can't see it doesn't mean he isn't hurt.

Considering the guy was not held at the hospital overnight, and was sent home with basic Aleve for basic pain...I'm not seeing much in the way of injuries. Maybe a headache?

And you're going to cherry-pick that rule? Seriously? Just about every other thread goes the same way. Have fun locking basically 90% of the entire forum because that's what you're justifying

For the final, goddamn time tonight:

Take the issue to Cheat if you are that upset. Posting, multiple times, in multiple threads, about it will not get you an answer, no will it makes your chances of reducing the warning any better.
There's no rule against it, so I will continue it. I'm showing the entire forum what's going on so they can be self-aware to watch what they post or they will feel the power of selective rule enforcement

You aren't showing them anything other than, instead of following basic instructions, you continuing to spam the forums with your beliefs of our moderation team that, frankly, are already well known because you literally complain about mod bias nearly anytime you get a warning or a ban, either on this account or an alt.

We get it. You think we're biased against you, you think we are out to get you. Honestly Kinder, we could care less if you continue to post on the forums, as long as you do it within the rules and that it doesn't incite a wave of shitposting like tonight as led to.

So, for the final time (Again): Wait. For. Cheat.

And for the first, and final time: I CANNOT LOCK THREADS OR ISSUE WARNINGS.

Seriously, for fucks sake.

Reported. Funny, all other threads get locked but this doesn't? God damn, the bias is fucking strong
maybe because he's not posting it like a rabid idiot
>trying to justify rule breaking because of bias

how cute
this isn't against the rules
Neither were my threads, but they were still locked

From the rules:

Quote
   - New threads should encourage a discussion among the community; please be mindful of that when you create threads.

Posting a thread with just a picture of your gun does not stimulate discussion, and is only asking for trouble.

Just one example. As I said, when Cheat gets around to it (He doesn't spend his time on here 24/7), he will get back to you as to your questions. Continuing to post them is not going to get you an answer.

Toys R Us being looted.

Someone shot at a residence.
The scannner link is there for anyone who wants to listen.
Not sure if we need to update every time they say something. Again this thread is suppose to be for discussion.

I thank you for the link bro but Anytime anyone tries to discuss anything the liberal mods shut us down.

Pants Up, Dont loot.

They're totally oppressing you by telling you to stick with the topic.  And yes, Brown was murdered by the cop.  Don't know how emptying a clip into an unarmed person isn't fucking overkill.

Anyways, the rioters need to really chill the fuck out.  Surprised martial law hasn't been declared.
Oh he was murdered? Tell me again how thats not the verdict :)

Some dude is charging me, trying to steal my weapon, I'm putting my whole chip in him. Just me personally.

He charged at Wilson?  I thought Willy was safe and snug inside his vehicle until the scary Michael Brown broke through his window to try and steal his gun.

Same difference.

Not really. It's discrepancies like that that can sway a grand jury.

You're more than welcome to continue discussing. We're only going to "shut you down" if your posts turn to shit posting, insulting a person, or anything else that may go against the rules.

And it will be a B.S'd excuse

Then message Cheat if you are THAT unhappy.

It's not obvious why I got a warning. First of all, I've never been warned for the bullshit of drama starting, so why the fuck does that even carry a 20%?

Ask a Ninja. Seriously, making these threads, spamming and complaining is not going to further your point, it's only going to make you look bad.

How should I fucking know? I never get an actual explanation or the thread it occurred in

Seriously, Door's thread ridiculing my post doesn't get the locked by every other thread does

You're always welcome to message a Ninja for an explanation.

Though, going back through the threads that got you a warning, it's rather obvious.
