Money cannot buy you happiness, but it can buy you a trapping license and that's pretty close.

PLEDGE TO VOTE FOR JOE


James,

I’m gonna keep this short: The President of the United States is a white supremacist.

During last night’s debate, in a display of sheer belligerence, Donald Trump repeatedly refused to condemn white supremacy and to affirm that Black Lives Matter, he told white supremacist groups like the Proud Boys to “stand back and stand by,” and he once again threatened that he would not recognize the results of a legitimate election.

It made me sick. But Joe Biden made me proud to be a voter. He conducted himself with compassion, he stayed focused on the progressive values that drive him, and ultimately: He was coherent.

We need to make sure that Joe Biden wins by a landslide and get the white supremacist in chief out of the White House. That’s why I’m asking you now to commit to vote for Joe Biden in the last 34 days we have left.

COMMIT TO VOTE FOR JOE
Let’s shut Donald Trump up,

There is strong evidence that it's all about the of the group think.
Social justice warriors.

Why is it that every time a group rights government, "Social"lists. "Commune"ists, etc. shows up....
The individuals in it live like they have no rights?
Because they don't.

I wish they taught this at major universities James.
You're an attorney, true?
You would fight for the rights of the individual in our legal system. Heck, that's perhaps why we have so many attorneys because everyone is an individual and seems to think they "need a good lawyer!" Maybe they do and THEY HAVE THAT RIGHT in America.

This dunderheads that call for a viva la revolution in America won't need an attorney because they won't have rights and freedoms to fight for!
Get back in your group line.

Blessings,
Mark

Your not going to change anyones mind on a political view. Most politicians dont really care one way or another. They just say whatever will get them elected. That debate did show how childish our “leaders” are.

Of course public funded schools should be required to stay neutral

Could it be that each of us has our own "world view?"
Our individual personal cultural lens through which we understand everything.

Then we vote for the political candidate that seems to hold our view of "how things are" everywhere.
If this is the case, let's vote this afternoon because there are no "undecided" voters.
There may be the uninterested, but I doubt there are any undecided.

Blessings,
Mark

JMO, but any corporate entity receiving any fiduciary support from any level of government should be required to remain silent on matters that may may impact the status of that government with the penalty for not doing so being full reimbursement with interest.

Basically prohibiting buying advertising with public funds.

Seriously,I can understand why most universities would want to be involved in this election, and it makes sense they'd mostly want to support Biden. But I'm surprised the school can take any position it desires. I kinda thought they were, or should be, banned from politics.

USM, understand, is a public, state-run university. Should universities, especially public universities, be banned from engaging in politics, just like churches? Or should they have to give equal time to both candidates?

Jim

I got into this with my daughter who went to a liberal arts college. She says they have the right to do as they please. I can sort of see that, being they are privately owned I guess? But if they get any federal money, it should be a different story. College here in PA quit selling " the thin blue line" hats because some students complained.


Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

Disingenuous argument. Liberals, like a creature native and endued unto that element find college campuses their natural habitat. Antifa looks to be made up of people who thought they could spend their entire lives on campus and had a poor reaction when they realized it had to come to an end. The left targets our youth. Pelosi is on record saying she supports lowering the voting age to sixteen. Despicable to my way of thinking.

This is a great thread with well-thought replies. I owe it a ramble of morning, pre-coffee thoughts...

Back when I was in college there were anti-war and other rallies, of which we were made aware by handwritten postings on telephone poles, the bulletin boards in Student Unions, and other places in hopes of catching the eye of students and others that may be passing by. Whomever posted the information was hoping to gather enough folks through those postings as well as more by word of mouth.

Nowadays, with the technology infused into the hands of virtually everyone, groups and individuals can immediately contact and disperse their views and impending actions to an unlimited audience with very little effort and cost. This ease of transferral of information is exacerbating the unrest in our society. In most respects technology is a wonderful tool that I am using right now, but it is a double-edged sword that will continue and grow, and will be increasingly difficult to cope with.

I went to a juco and a private university nearly 20 years ago. Some of those university professors were very liberal even by today’s standards. They graded according to how people pandered to their beliefs because a lot of the grades came from writing papers, not choosing a b c or d. I remember a an intro to crim justice class i had freshman year taught by a hippie sociology prof. The book was “environmental crimes”. I worked on a hog farm 20 hours a week. This came up on papers i wrote and i failed every assignment and the final, which was essay. I appealed to the dean, who acted sympathetic but said sorry cant help. To be expected at a private university to an extent but shouldnt be allowed on a public funded campus.
The juco teachers were there because they liked to teach and kept politics out of it.

James did you say churches are banned from politics. Really? I strongly beg to differ check out shows like the 700 club or go to any locale church and see if politics isn't sooner or later worked into the sermon.

Years ago, I had a college professor who idolized BF Skinner. His class revolved around Skinner's teachings. Your grade depended more on your opinion of Skinner and his experiments than the actual contents of the psychology class he was teaching.

University of Wyoming (!) early 80's. Intro to US Government. Prof got up there 1st day of class and told us he was a Communist and hated capitalism and the US constitution. I got up and walked out of there straight down to the registrars office and dropped the class. I was the only one of maybe 200 to do so. Scary.

Wyoming! Almost 40 years ago now! It's bad!

That’s not really scary. Nothing wrong with studying an opponent and learning how to destroy them.

Lies. Trump disavowed white supremacy twice both times Wallace asked if he would.
Trump never said he would not recognize the results of a legitimate election.
What is not a lie is that Compassionate Coherent Joe refused to condemn the rioting commies in the streets.
What you posted James is bull crap and you should be ashamed of yourself for your silly subtle efforts.

One more and I gotta go but this garbage is everywhere! Wouldn't be surprised to find out this clown was a grad of some state University. Probably hate the 2nd Amendment except for his comrades:

Further evidence that Twitter is encouraging Marxism and violence against normal Americans came from its former CEO on Wednesday.

“Me-first capitalists who think you can separate society from business are going to be the first people lined up against the wall and shot in the revolution,” he tweeted. “I’ll happily provide video commentary.”

The message was not removed by Twitter management.

Costolo’s comment was in response to a discussion on whether social justice should be a goal of industry.
