They listen to the police scanners. Just doing the same thing as them. My bad.

Guess it died down when Trump said he supports gays. Only president ever to openly support gays before and after being elected.No, it's because trying to discuss issues with you is like trying to move a brick wall. Even when you're openly wrong with facts, you digress to the state of an emotional child who throws insults and acts like he knows everything. I really don't care that you support Trump or have a conservative world view - but I give up trying to have a discussion on it.That being said, yes. I agree with Trump's decision not to rescind protections for LGBT federal employees and will applaud him for it. Doesn't mean it changes my stance on everything else so far.Sorry I'm set in my beliefs. Most of the "facts" yall post are from horribly biased sources, hard to take serious. As for the Arab name thing, I literally heard with my own 2 ears the police were looking for 2 guys with arab names on their radio feed that night. Guess it was misinformation on their part.The problem is more your reaction than the misinformation, though. Do you know what was shared by several "sources" on Twitter before the radio scanner even broke? That it were several white supremacists who shot up the mosque. Live stories like this change all the time and evolve rapidly. The fact that you instantly jumped on this the moment a likely fake report on a scanner said they were Muslim immigrants while no other outlet or police contact point confirmed this is really just a testament to your own bias. You are reluctant to accept facts contrary to your own prejudices and political beliefs, but so eager to accept rumors as fact for as long as they conform with your bias. You never presented it as "there's reports on radio scanners suggesting they might be Syrian refugees". You stated it as an absolute fact without the slightest hint of scepticism for the sole reason that it confirms your prejudice and preconceptions. Everyone knows that had the radio scanner said that this was a white, non-immigrant Canadian Trump supporter who was right wing and anti-immigration, you would have ignored it, dismissed it as "liberal bias" and refused to even consider it.And that's really just a perfect example of the problems you're having on this site. People don't argue with you because you're right wing or support Trump. It's because you are, by a lack of better word, dense. People who disagree with you are just "whiny liberals" criticizing Trump because they're not successful like you are. Demonstrable facts being thrown at you are somehow false because they're from "biased liberal sources". As Icy said, it's exhausting, pointless and like talking to a brick wall.

So basically when I do it, its a problem. When someone more liberal does it, its not a big deal and just a minor mistake. Got it. I'm set in my ways and beliefs dog, thats not gonna change. If y'all dont like it, don't respond to me. Simple.

Simple.No, he's saying you're incapable of actually having a discussion and you just talk past everyone, and will not accept facts unless they fit into your own beliefs. Being "set in your beliefs" =/= not having a discussion because it seems you're incapable of actually being able to defend your beliefs when people challenge them, showing how fleeting your critical thinking really isLike you just didin this postso you basically just reaffirmed what everyone thinks of you

Not much more we can discuss right now, unless you want me to tell you why it's likely going to be upheld as legal in the courtrooms.
