Exactly.

And, let’s say Trump pulled us out of Afghanistan and it was every bit the mess it was always going to be.

Fox would have spent weeks defending everything that happened. And any critical guest would be paired with a Trump fellating sycophant, for “balance.”

Whereas the “mainstream media” pounced in an opportunity to seem “unbiased” and pounded Biden for weeks.

This is “self-defense.”

There’s a very graphic video out there on Twitter if you want to see what guns actually do to people, and how much they cheapen human life.

Yeah my first thought when I saw this video is that these types of situations are common, but don't end with people being shot. By grabbing a gun, he escalated the situation and should be held responsible.

He stepped back after the victim tried to grab the gun from him, the victim was unarmed and the shooter just shot him like it was nothing.

No remorse. No empathy. They let that man die on the porch (may have been dead immediately).

This is what the NRA has wanted for years, and the far right. Let citizens shoot to kill when feeling threatened.

The victims kids weren’t even home!!

This is now the rule of law unfortunately when it comes to guns.

If someone threatens me with a gun and I’m unarmed, they can still shoot me if i try to defend myself against a gun!

What stunned me was how indifferent he was to the man he just murdered. Like it didn’t even occur to him that he murdered an unarmed person. And he did the abuser thing — look what you made me do.

And now an 11 year old’s father is dead.

Pleas explain to me this works where the 2A is sacred and everyone has a god-given right to bear arms and most Gun owners are responsible, and yet the world is so filled with armed psychopaths lurking around every corner that I need to be able to concealed carry so that I can shoot them when they come for me (and come for me they will.)

Not self defense but not murder. Voluntary manslaughter.

Easily avoidable if, you know, these idiots didn’t have a gun to fight over.

Yes, more people should get covid so we (GQP) can then blame Biden for higher covid cases and deaths rather than get the vaccine and end this which is bad for us (GQP)

Nah.

Heavy criticism is and was justified. You're better off hoping folks just forget.

Maybe I’ve already forgotten. What was Irvine referencing?

And out of curiosity, would you contend that Fox News is not the mainstream?

Fox Corp /News Corps is one of the biggest media corporations in the god damn world and yet somehow try and play themselves off as outside the mainstream. It's a joke.

They used to at least give the appearance of separation but now I have to see Tucker Carlson's dumb fascist face every other commercial break during my sportsball games.

I agree. Some, not all, of the criticism was fair — it also became excessive as it became some sort of “we’re unbiased!” flex.

My point is that Fox would never, ever do that to a Republican and would, in fact, get started constructing a blame Obama/Hillary narrative.

Jack Dorsey is stepping down from Twitter (CEO)

Found this and maybe it’s related ? Was back in February

I know we keep saying just turnout the vote but it feels like that’s not going to cut it. With gerrymandering and officials being replaced by Trump supporters, the Right has basically covered all their bases.

Congress must pass voting rights to have any chance at a fairer election.
