The Republican Convention Thread

[k-town_king]

May be time to just list the democrat party as a domestic terrorist organization

boo hoo hoo

Actual domestic terrorist like Kyle are always some white loser right winger.

He didn’t commit treason. Not one confederate did.

They are and were traitors. Also cowards, rapists, and murderers.

The only position I'm defending is that the alleged "fine people" marching with the Nazis and white supremacists in Charlottesville were not fine people based on the fact that they consciously chose to march with Nazis. What does that have to do with the IDEOLOGY of Black Lives Matter? Do they advocate black supremacy? Killing or kicking whites out of the country? Do they advocate arson and property destruction as a means to achieving their ends?

Plenty do. Yes. In fact alot of celebrities in the front lines of this has shown their antisemitic rhetoric and anti white. Such as Nick Cannon saying white people are genetically inferior. So yes.

 

[RikidyBones]

Removing a statue of racists doesn't change history, it only removes an object that idolizes racists.

See: Holocaust museum.

I got no issue if some jerkwads feel compelled to keep these statues in a museum.

Does homophobia disqualify a person from being honored? Honest question

 

[RikidyBones]

Even if we assume, at least temporarily, that these people are "fine people," would "fine people" attend a rally organized by Nazis and white supremacists, even if they agreed on the purpose of the rally?

This is really not hard folks. If the United Pedophiles of America had an anti-abortion march, would you join that march simply because you too hold anti-abortion views?

Irrelevant. Can someone who is a fine person walk to the location of the protest and counter protest with the opinion of not removing the statue while not locking arms with a neonazi?

 

[NurseGoodVol]

Lol. Not everyone there in support of the statues were Neo nazis.

This point is lost on him.

 

[utvolpj]

The ones that stayed once they realized what was happening were likely sympathetic

 

[BreatheUT]

Libs in here want to defend this?

Let's be honest. In other countries if our ambassadors are threatened in this way the perpetrators are probably killed or neutralized. At some point there has to be a line in the sand regardless of age if these people continue to be a threat against people walking down the street.

Confederates were citizens of the states, not the union. Therefore they weren’t traitors. Get your facts straight race baiter.

this is actually Emily Ratajkowski. You know if anyone needed to look it up for science.

You and your side are domestic terrorists and should be treated as such. If Kyle was the one shooting your pals he’s a damn hero

Do you leave a UT football game if some UT fans start doing something you dont like? Or are your proUT sentiments strong enough to not care about every misdeed of someone who might wear the same orange as you?

He loves throwing the word traitor around. I can’t imagine what word I would use to describe my own people who sold me into slavery.

I would absolutely leave the area and have when things got bad. Happened at both home and away

These people are being paid directly or indirectly by groups funded by George Soros

They purposely made it more difficult. That's why millennial can't count back change correctly without a computation device.

If you want to watch a teenagers head explode buy anything in any fast food joint with cash and hand them a $20 bill. When they enter the amount tendered say "wait I've got 2 pennies", they have no earthly idea what to do even when the change is in even quarters, dimes or nickels.

It trashes their day plus you get a heavy sigh.

Joe Biden's convention speech had higher ratings than Trump's - CNN

President Trump's Thursday night convention speech making the case for his reelection was lower-rated than his challenger Joe Biden's speech one week ago, according to overnight Nielsen ratings.
About 21.6 million viewers watched coverage of Trump's RNC address across nine cable and broadcast networks, down from 23.6 million viewers who watched Biden's DNC address on the same nine networks.

Talk about hitting him where it hurts.

The 2 million difference was probably all in California so it won't matter.

If that’s the numbers I’d say you should be worried . The economy is down , unemployment is high , theres states closed or heavily regulated because of Covid and everybody wants to know if Joe can make it through a speech by himself . Joes numbers should by all intensive purposes be double Trumps right now .

The difference is the likely Trump voters watching Biden for entertainment value, likely Biden voters didn't watch Trump's speech.

With everything going on the fact that this is still a race says everything you need to know about the democratic party.

Joe hiding while all the other politicians are flying around ( even his VP ) is a horrible look .

If R.E. Lee was a traitor then why didn't they arrest him when he went to the White House before the war to talk with and turn down Winfield Scott' offer to become Commander in Chief of all U.S. forces? (My timeline may be a little off) but I think the next day he resigned his commission in the U.S. Army and went to Richmond to help organize the States defense.

I would have thought Trump would clobber him in the ratings.
