Official Twitter Ruling: Saying That Dana Loesch's Children Must be Murdered to "Make Her Understand" Does Not Violate Twitter's Rules
Apparently this doesn’t violate @TwitterSupport TOS. I know several conservatives who have been suspended for far less. cc @jack pic.twitter.com/xwKVFxtx8x
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) August 27, 2018
Conservatives and Trump supporters have for the last several years questioned whether Google was deprioritizing conservative news sites, hiding them from users who utilize their search engine. Google has maintained that all outlets are treated fairly, but nevertheless, conservative sites have reported reduced search traffic and, in the case of Google-owned YouTube, content creators have been banned and demonetized. Google's high-profile firing of conservative James Damore, purportedly over his conservative political views, only reinforces the idea that Google is picking winners and losers. To test the premise, I performed a Google search for "Trump" using the search engine's "News" tab and analyzed the results using Sharyl Attkisson's media bias chart. [Omitted; it just shows media organizations in their expected left-to-right positionings.]By the way, has anyone tried finding FoxNews in Google searches? I prefer linking conservative outlets for news stories, but I have to specify "site:FoxNews.com" because Google usually does not list FoxNews hits -- or at least not until the second page or so. In the meantime, "conservative" politicians and "conservative" lobbying groups and think-tanks will continue helping social media giants censor conservatives, because they're paid to do just that, and they do love their money.
I expected to see some skewing of the results based on my extensive experience with Google, but I was not prepared for the blatant prioritization of left-leaning and anti-Trump media outlets. Looking at the first page of search results, I discovered that CNN was the big winner, scoring two of the first ten results. Other left-leaning sites that appeared on the first page were CBS, The Atlantic, CNBC, The New Yorker, Politico, Reuters, and USA Today (the last two outlets on this list could arguably be considered more centrist than the others). Not a single right-leaning site appeared on the first page of search results. But it got much, much worse when I analyzed the first 100 items that Google returned in a search for news on "Trump." CNN, by a wide margin, appeared most frequently, with nearly twice as many results returned as the second-place finisher, The Washington Post. Other left-leaning outlets also fared well, including NBC, CNBC, The Atlantic, and Politico. The only right-leaning sites to appear in the top 100 were The Wall Street Journal and Fox News with 3 and 2 results respectively.

Establish some very concrete rules (no doxxing, no threats of violence) and leave it at that.

In order for leftists to understand the value of self defense, they need to see their own children get murdered because they did not possess the means of self defense, and had been taught by their parents that it was unnecessary and evil to possess such means.
But of course, they wouldn't learn anything from that. Iowa, and Vester Flanagan and numerous examples from Europe shows that they are lemmings that want to die.

I decided to do a test after the school shooting in Florida and I had to go back about five or six pages in the results to see the usual IT'S A FALSE FLAG THE GOVERNMENT DID IT paranoia laced articles from small conspiracy minded sites and bloggers.
A few years ago some of those would be on the first page.
So it's definitely Google doing it. They've been going after that type of stuff on youtube as well. Those awful videos about Sandy Hook being a false flag and the parents are crisis actors were up for years and nothing happened to them. It was only after Trump got elected that these shenanigans started up.

And since they are choosing political sides, it is false advertising to claim they do NOT censor conservatives.
And of course as publishers that approve of threatening to murder Dana's kids, they are open to libel.
AND as anti-American propagandists, taking money from Russia/Fusion/DNC/ForeignAgents/etc. ... they are seditionists.
well, that is my take ... not sure how much can be pursued legally, at least not till we get real judges and a real DoJ. Some assembly and swamp draining required.

__________
Saw McCain couldn't resist taking a final shot at Trump . . . and at his own voters in AZ. Some bullshit statement he reportedly dictated that "we weaken the world's greatest republic when we hide behind walls."
I'm so old I remember when McCain was telling his peeps here in AZ that he'd "build the damn wall" if that's what AZ wanted.
Take a stroll through any prison in AZ and you'll quickly see what is really weakening the world's greatest republic: thousands of illegal alien criminals from socialist, third-world shitholes. And McCain, who never had the courage during his lifetime to be honest about his open borders desires, would have been happy to import millions, or even billions, more here.
After all, McCain's wealth and status meant that he would never have to worry about being stabbed to death by an illegal alien and tossed into a car trunk. And he also never had to worry about his kids being crammed into public schools packed to the gills with un-vaccinated, non-English-speaking illegal alien kids, because all his kids attended $40,000 a year private schools, just like the Obama kids. And no illegal alien criminals were going to be moving into the mansion next door to his. No, it was going to be us deplorables who would have to live with the consequences of McCain's (and Obama's and Soros' and the rest of their ilk) dreams of a borderless and America-less New World Order.

Did you read about the eulogy that Mollie Tibbetts' lefty dad gave at her funeral? Said we should all just turn the page and stop talking about her murder, and that Mollie was "no victim."
Uh, she was stabbed to death and tossed in the trunk of an illegal alien's car. She was certainly a victim. She was a victim of an illegal alien murderer who had no business being in the U.S. She was also a victim of foolish and corrupt politicians (and their leftist enablers) who refuse to take seriously their responsibility to enforce our laws and secure our borders.
And refusing to talk about that is not going to make anything better.

Thankfully they aren't committed to the cause, they just hate the leftist shitholes from which they hail and are unwilling to understand why they were shitholes when they expatriate. If they were committed, they would pick much easier targets. 100,000 of them could probably flip Wyoming and pick up three electoral votes. 250,000 could probably flip Montana and do the same. It took *millions* to do it Colorado, and took a much longer period of time.

My two cents. Beto is generating a lot of liberal "momentum." Like Wendy Davis before him. Cruz is not really campaigning yet. Most people aren't really paying attention. Beto's momentum is with leftist anyway. He hasn't picked up anyone who would not vote Dem. He does speak better than a lot of the crazy leftist loons that Texas produces.
Combining the Irish gift of gab with the Hispanic sounding nickname is one of the better ideas the Texas left has produced. Certainly better than dressing up infanticide as Pink Sneakers or Barbie.

However, the caveat is that the government does have two important functions in a capitalist marketplace: (i) enforcing the rule of law - primarily enforcing contracts, and (ii) ensuring the free flow of accurate information from marketers.
The latter function means that Congress (or other appropriate regulator) has the right/responsibility to require these sites fully to disclose their operating policies. If they want to censor conservatives - fine; just say so in express language.
The disclosures (or lack/insufficiency thereof) then form a basis for any contract (express, or implied by "doing business" with a customer). If a privately operated website operates in variance to their published policy, then the government should entertain a lawsuit by an injured party for breach of contract.

And this is why Republicans lose.
In a couple of months ... nobody will give two fucks about Molly Tibbets or her family. We'll be eight news cycles past this shit.
But ... their opinion matters now. And so, now, they're making their political opinion known. Loud and proud. Whenever possible.
Republicans sit back and "give them space" at their own peril. To do so cedes the public square to House Tibbets at the exact moment that showing their stupidity for what it is gets would be most effective.
Nobody's opinion will be changed by your show of decency. However, the Tibbets Babbling Brook of Bullshit will absolutely change some minds when contradicted by ... nothing.

I like this in theory, but just wondering about the impact of lawsuits and litigation on these techie billionaire brats. The idea of going after someone with virtually unlimited money on an issue to be adjudicated in a lefty court in their home state where they spew gazillions in taxes and political contributions and (to be fair) some good public works, is daunting.
Going further, if this goes anywhere, why would they simply not acquire some 500 lawyer global law firm and give them the charge - scorched earth?
I have always felt we would win the long war because we had the power of the right ideas on our side. Now, I think this could be our greatest challenge going forward after illegal immigration.

The cousin should probably stop the half-assed pronouncements. She's drawing fire down on her family, and what happened and what will happen is bad enough. It's very hard living beyond a relative, especially one taken at a young age, by violence. They face a lifetime sentence of dealing with this vermin and the political machinations.
Starting off with lies about "uncertainty" doesn't help. and if there is dissension within the family, this could tear it apart. At least one of the families that suffered in the Columbine shooting was ripped apart by the mother getting buddy-buddy with the mother of one of the killers. her daughter died, and her son was forced to play dead and underwent years of therapy. The son became estranged from her and the husband divorced her.

Since leftists run most of media, a study would also have to compare maybe --- number of leftist results versus amount of leftist traffic.
As Rush showed, leftists and Soros funded jerks deliberately screw up search results, so even an honest search engine would have to navigate the muddied waters. Rush iirc, said just a few guys were making it look like there was major backlash to him for being so radical or some such.
But we already have people on the inside of those leftist giants admitting they censor and screw with conservatives and/or Trump supporters. We already have Creamer (Obama's buddy for 30 years or so) admitting to creating trouble at Trump events, timed with Hillary blaming Trump for violence ... which is sorta the street version for this digital propaganda "game".

Wiki gives demographic data for every State and it is usually pretty good. However all you have to do is take a quick look at the population centers. If it has more than a few cities of more than 100K population it is most likely blue. If it has mega cities like NYC, Chicago, LA, etc it is usually hard blue.
Currently GA has Atlanta which is doing its damnedest to turn GA blue and is getting help from Macon which some in GA are calling little Detroit. But still Scankles could not win GA when all the polls said she was up by 5%.

Good idea - you could use listed totals for MSA's (Metropolitan Statistical Areas) For example, the DFW MSA is population 7.4 million, give or take, and the Houston MSA is population 6.9 million.
Of course, these take in a lot of nearby land that might be rural, for instance I think Denton and Kaufman get included in the DFW MSA, and so don't know if this will work as intended. I did a quick look at a wiki page and came up with a number of about 21 million of Texas' 28 million residents live in the top 10 MSA's.

I am sure enthusiasm among people who vote Dem is high. Unless half of Cali moved to Texas in the last two years though, I don't see that mattering. Enthusiasm for Trump is just as high and people on our side have every reason to vote. I am seeing trends elsewhere that hard core leftists are making ALOT of noise but Democratic voter registration is down overall.

With most coroner's reports you get the pertinent negatives "there was no sign of sexual assault or sexual activity".
But this one just says " uh she was stabbed with a sharp thing".
I think that that was the preliminary finding, with the cause of death; she was stabbed. As to whether they are slow walking the results, I don't know. She was missing for a month, and was probably killed that night. Sadly, her body was thrown away like trash and left out in the open for a month in an Iowa summer. I will not hazard a guess as to the condition.

Sure we can. All we have to do is go back to the perfectly sane rules that controlled media and communications for the first two hundred years of our country's existence (and that existed in English Common Law before that).
Under those, there are two statuses: "publisher" and "common carrier".
A "common carrier" (like the phone company or FedEx) is not responsible for transmitted messages. You can't sue the phone company or charge them with a crime if someone uses the phone to plan a murder. BUT, in order to get that status they are required to accept messages from all comers under the same terms and conditions. The phone company is required to provide the same service to anyone with the money to pay the bill.
A "publisher" (like the New York Times) CAN practice discrimination, but with that power comes responsibility for the transmitted information.
This made perfect sense; in each case the control and responsibility are commensurate. Phone company has no control over the messages, and no responsibility for them. Newspaper has full control over the messages, and full responsibility for them
The Facebooks and Twitters want (and have largely been given, so far) full control and no responsibility. That can, and should, change. There's no need for the government to practice content regulation -- the carriers can either choose to regulate content (and assume responsibility) or choose to not regulate it (and have no responsibity).

Yeah, we all love to make fun of Sovereign Citizens. I know I do. The way they wave specific words around as if they're talismans is ridiculous. "I wasn't driving, I was travelling."
But the only thing they're misunderstanding is they don't have the will to power backing the left does. The left can wave certain words around and they DO have the force of law. The way they say, "Safety" or "Choice" or "Racism" is exactly as ridiculous as the Sovereign Citizen's "travelling", but one works and the other doesn't.

As Jay observed, there is no uncertainty about his status.
In addition, I'd say it matters. It shows how important it is to have a formal immigration policy so we can at least *try* to vet immigrants and assess if they will be beneficial or detrimental to the country.
I like Minnfidel's analogy of a few days ago. For those who suggest that "immigration is irrelevant", if a murderer escaped from prison and raped and killed a relative of theirs, would they consider prison security irrelevant?
Then we must always consider the hypocrisy of the left trying to invoke causality whenever it suits them (Parkland? NRA! Terrorism? Mental illness!). Fine. So causality is real. Now let's have a serious discussion about it.

Lower incident rate? or lower rate of reporting? Areas of the US have proven that when cops and courts don't treat it seriously, reporting drops.
And what are they counting? Reports? Prosecutions? Convictions?

Often they can't speak at all. In the last days, they usually lapse into coma.

The problem with this is that it may seem to be based on objective metrics, but they could always rationalize and handwave it away.
"CNN is a moderate site. We've determined that Fox and DailyCaller are hatespeech sites and that's why we've weighted them so they appear on the second or third page".
You could ask them why and an endless argument would ensue. As impossible as it seems, alternatives need to be found to these organizations, and rogue judges need to be defrocked. There are just some areas where your adversary can just keep arguing on forever, so once you realize they are trolls, they need to be banhammered. The only way.

they way Mexican culture treats women this isn't really a surprise, your average "macho" mustachioed Mexican cop probably laughs at rape claims

Based upon multiple reports of women claiming to have been drugged and attacked in Mexico at resorts, and their subsequent treatment by those authorities, I'm calling bullshit on a lower rate.

Chuck and McCain: Two peas in a pod.
Posted by: Jane D'oh at August 27, 2018 04:01 PM (ptqGC)
You know what? A lot of us didn't trust McCain--with good reason, of course. But it's funny to see the Democrats claim McCain as one of their own when the man was a Republican who got elected many times as a Republican and *mostly* voted with the Republicans. He NEVER changed his party affiliation and all but the dimmest LIV's know he was a Republican.
If there is any goodwill to scoop up for lionizing McCain, why wouldn't it redound to his party, the Republicans?

You know what all of those cities have in common? No one in any of those cities is EVER contacted by any pollsters, because they think they aren't big enough to bother counting. That's how they slant the polls - they only poll DFW, Houston, Austin, and San Antonia, and they say that is the same as the entire state.
It Isn't.

The love of money is the root of all evil.
Money itself is not inherently evil.

Posted by: SMH at August 27, 2018 04:05 PM (7UCSd)
Also translated as "the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil," meaning many different evils can grow from the love of money. Not that all evil branches from the love of money. Sin is the root of all evil, if you want to get all theologicalistic about it.

I'm picturing the young lady walking into the police station saying "I'm not really dating this guy, but we've hooked up a few times before, and so the other night I was a bit drunk, and he sorta took advantage of my drunkenness. That's rape.... right?"
Yeah, that's gonna get reported.
Or the gal who wants to report being ganged up on by a bunch of dudes, walked into the police station, takes a look around, and says "On second thought fellas, I'm good." Then skedaddles back the way she came.

My guess is that it is accurate.
What do you think happens to a guy in the average Mexican village/neighborhood who rapes a woman?
What do you think her male relatives will do?
Very often the "toxic masculinity" that may allow mistreating women also allows protection against OTHERS seeking to hurt her.
But you remove these guys from the old country and all bets are off.
(Also, in regard to the US rape rate, if you remove certain demographic clusters---and I do not mean Latinos --- it goes waaaay down.)

It's the lack of money which is the root of all evil.

Guns and money are too completely different things. I doubt you would say or agree with that the love/lust of guns is the root of all kinds of evil.
In the Current Year, I blame the Love/Lust of Money.

My guess is that it is accurate.
If you live in a culture where a female family member being raped brings shame upon the entire family I doubt you can get an accurate number.

Back from the dental clean & scrape with most of my face hole numb. I was smart enough not to grab a meal yet and end up eating a hamburger with a side of cheek and tongue like the last visit.
Put my tongue in some ice water to get some moisture without major drooling. Tongue can sense liquid and hard items, but no sense of temperature at all. Always fun and weird testing what and how anesthetics do.

I can only go by what I see in my old suburban Houston Neighborhood: one Cruz sign - about a dozen Beto signs. Most houses - like mine - don't have signs. Libs do love to virtue signal. I'm afraid Culberson - my Republican rep may be in trouble - due to changing demographics from the Harvey flood.
