While the right spews division and racism, the left continually supports inclusion

[#1]

In this season of political discord the most glaring difference is that one side wants to encourage hatred and prejudice and the other side wants to spread harmony between races and colors. Trump supporters will try their best to SPIN what Trump is saying like he is a champion for civil rights and anti-racist ,like Jeffery Lord tired on CNN.

But the reality is that Trump is a racist. There is NO amount of "spinning " that can defend Trump's remarks. So if you think Pixar and Disney are propagating this "liberal" Hollywood movies which are much pointed to as destroying the moral fabric of America by the Christian Right, what does the Christian Right want our children to be taught ?


.Especially in animated movies directed to children. I have just watched Zootopia and "how to train your dragon 2 ' and the message sent to children was clearly a message of acceptance. If all of those damn directors in Hollywood are pushing a "liberal " agenda. I had to ask myself , if making movies that accept people for whom ever they are ... gay straight ,different races and religions is a BAD thing, what would be the "message" be if Hollywood was controlled by conservatives? I cannot for the life of me understand if the right wants a different message sent to children, what is that message?

Do they want Hollywood to make more movies that portray white people as superior? Do they want "Liberal Hollywood " to make hateful divisionist propaganda movies like Germany under Hitler made?

I think each and every Trump supporter needs to ask themselves " is this the message you want your children to grow up thinking" ? Do you want your children to immediately assume that all Mexicans are drug traffickers or rapists?? That is the "future world" of Donald Trump as President. It will be a world where any person who is not like "him" is lesser than.

REPUBLICANS BLOCKED COMMON SENSE GUN REFORMS TO KEEP GUNS OUT OF THE HANDS OF TERRORISTS AND DANGEROUS CRIMINALS

NY Daily News: Senate Republicans Vote Down Bill That Would Block People On Terror Watch List From Buying Guns. "Senate Republicans voted against barring suspected terrorists, felons and the mentally ill from getting guns on Thursday afternoon, parroting National Rifle Association arguments that doing so would strip some innocent people of their constitutional rights to gun access just a day after yet another massacre on U.S. soil. A pair of Democratic measures - one to close background check loopholes to make it harder for felons and the mentally ill from buying guns, another to ban those on the terror watch list from buying guns - both went down in flames against near-unanimous GOP opposition." [NY Daily News, 12/3/15]

Odd that you simply scanned what I said and found something that you could pull to post an objection. Rather than actually discuss the problems or offer helpful solutions that do not include arming every person in the US with an assault weapon. .

Here is a chance for the GOP to really show their support for the 2nd amendment !! This petiton is an effort to get rid of the gun ban on the venue during the GOP convention.

"Each member who votes NO will have immediate broadcast of their name and how much the NRA has given that member. "

OK, I could get on board IF this is done with ALL kind of bills - spending bills, budget bills, environmental bills and REGULATIONS!

Let's see how much the donor class controls BOTH parties and who is guilty of basic bribery. Sadly, I would guess most of them.

It certainly couldn't be with just the things that you are passionate about Dee. (and I know it's a passionate subject right now, but that is only if you make it about guns).

[PrincessCanopyShop]

I agree completely. We should be fully informed about who is funding their votes. Personally I think the practice of lobbyist donations is plain old bribery !!

Just an observation, I am watching cnn and a cnn anchor is interviewing 3 guys. The topic is specifically about the time that the shooter chose and why he chose it. Not one single one of them said the obvious. Have any of these men been at a bar at 2 am? Shooters will take advantage of a crowded place and if the crowd is slow to react even better.

We need to restore common sense in this country. Common sense would dictate that a person who had been investigated by the FBI would send up a red flag when they attempt to purchase a firearm of ANY KIND. But, then, common sense would also dictate that a person being investigated by the FBI wouldn't be permitted to run for the office of President of the U.S.

You do realize that were that a law in America all the party in charge needs to do to insure that they remain in power is to have THEIR FBI and/or Senate investigate every politician who opposes them whether the investigation is justified or not.

Hillary has been under a gop withchhunt ever since she ran in 2008

Law enforcement officers (I imagine that includes the FBI) must take an oath to uphold the Constitution. They aren't the IRS...who seems to be able to "investigate at will." Hillary's actions posed a security threat. It was no small deal...like she would have you believe. It's a criminal investigation. But, why should you care. GOOD GRIEF!

If this were a Republican, the Liberals would have had him drawn and quartered by now. Such hypocrites!

A series of emails about the CIA's drone program are among those being investigated by the FBI as part of its probe into Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server while secretary of state, a law enforcement official tells CNN.

Those emails, sent in late 2011 and early 2012, involve a discussion by the then-U.S. ambassador to Pakistan about a planned U.S.-led drone strike in that country, and took place largely on what's called "low side," or non-classified, State Department email system. The planned drone strike was later canceled.

The Wall Street Journal was first to report the details of planned drone strike email discussion.

Witch hunt, indeed!
