Hal 9000

She stood up in a forum and preached a very violent and fearful rant to a bunch of students. She got "in the ring". Her purpose was nothing more than to scare half the students and intimidate those who supported Trump. What is the new catch phrase? Words matter. Yes, she is paying the price for her decisions. Charlie sheen will pay a price for his comments too - a much smaller price because he wasn't preaching his shit to a captive group of students, but his price will amount to a bunch of people calling him a useless junkie etc etc. Democrats and liberals never seem to think there should be ramifications for their actions and seem staggered by the truth when it does happen. A prime example is Khan, although he was clearly used by the democrats because he is a muslim with a deceased military son. People couldn't understand that this guy stood on stage, injected himself into the political arena for no other reason than to attack Trump. Personally, I would've taken the high road and simply said "he has a right to his opinion", but he deserved what he got from Trump.

None of those comments were jokes - notta one!

Then you haven't seen the whole video or heard interviews with the students in that classroom.

Cox said she has appealed to Costa Mesa Police and the FBI seeking help, but was told by both agencies that until her property is vandalized or she is physically attacked, there’s nothing law enforcement can do to help. In a statement sent to The Washington Post, Costa Mesa police wrote that they “take the type of threats that Ms. Cox received seriously and we are currently investigating this case.” An FBI spokesman wrote to The Post that the agency does not comment on information from individuals who claim to be victims of crime. “Any member of the public who feels they are being threatened may report it to the FBI, where we will attempt to determine veracity and whether an allegation falls within our purview,” the statement said. “If they feel their life is in immediate danger, they need to call 911.” Of course the police say they are taking it seriously, what else would you expect them to say "we simply don't care"? You have to read a little in between lines. Now, would I threaten her? No, but i'm not surprised that out of 48% of a population of 380 million people, she got some nastiness sent her way for her comments. Were there any direct threats? No, not that we've seen and by the slant of the article, if there were any, we'd surely know by now. As far as political discourse, many people have spoken out against Trump, so what makes her case different is that she is a professor and she was intimidating her students - she was a bully. So, now she feels intimidated - so what. She wants absolutely no accountability for her actions, but she wants to make sure the student pays the "price" by ruining that students educational life - what about their political freedom?

People are constantly calling for Trump's death - just today Charlie Sheen jumped into the act on Twitter. However, to your point, a quick example would possibly be the "christian bakery vs. the gay couple". Does anybody care that the bakery gets driven out of business? No, people on the left cheer and celebrate such an achievement - they had it coming, that's the price the bakery should pay for their intolerance. The theory works for everybody - in fact, it's inescapable. One has the freedom to make a decision or state a comment, but freedom does not excuse any of us from the price of our actions - it may reduce it, but there will still be a price. You want to quit your, tell off your boss, drive too fast, talk politics/religion, be a slut, be frigid, do drugs, kill somebody, but a corvette instead of mini-van (or vice versa), save your money, spend your money, be an asshole, sleep in....whatever. Trump is paying the price for his decision to run for president, Hillary is paying the price for things she said and the psychology professor is paying the price for her decisions, the student will pay a price for recording that video. There is price for every decision we make - every one, sometimes the price is high - sometimes it's fairly low. It's up to us to decide whether that price is what we want to pay for that particular decision.

Did she actually get any death threats? All they quoted was some name calling. This is simply the teacher inserting herself into the victim role, they even want to prosecute the student FFS. Oh, she is scared - well, that's all on her.

Much ado about nothing! This woman deserves all the name calling she gets - she invited it, she also tried calling out the Trump supporters in that class...why? So that she could intimidate them. Now she is feeling intimidated by "mean tweets"? Turn around is fair play, she's lucky she even has a job. You see, everything we're seeing right now is the people on the left having a difficult time realizing that there are consequences for their actions - there always is, for each decision you make, there is a price to pay. Why liberals (especially educators) can't fathom that idea is staggering. They think they can antagonize everyone whom they disagree with, but then when called out as the bullies they are, they claim "victimhood".

I explained to you how this is wrong.

I'll say the chinese because it is happening right now so might as well get on board and they may at some point have access to my computer. P.S - We have very little access to yams and most of what we buy as "yams" are in fact sweet potatoes.

Trump supporters aren't "losing their sh*t", maybe confused that you people are making up your own reality and grasping whatever small "victory" you can, but I assure you, Trump supporters couldn't be more happy right now. I personally find it sad that after 8 years, the Obama's are going out like whining pu**ies.

You'd reckon wrong then, Obama is desperately trying to protect his legacy..and is coming unwound as the people of America elected someone to dismantle his social agenda, that world leaders are waiting for his departure, that companies and the stock market are improving and even though he is still in office, no one gives a crap what he say's - It's all about Trump, and Trump is already doing Obama's job. When Obama, is publicly saying that he'd have beaten Trump, you gotta know he's hurting. No, he's not having a great time.

If you are a white woman, then yes, you can assume you are part of the problem.

Well, we can start off with their "privilege".

There should be a course "the problem with white women".

Maybe Prince...Maybe, but no one was bigger or more prominent than Madonna or Michael Jackson. I liked George Michael, but lets keep some perspective.

James Madison worried about what he called “factions,” which he defined as groups of citizens who have a common interest in some proposal that would either violate the rights of other citizens or would harm the nation as a whole. Madison’s fear – which Alexis de Tocqueville later dubbed “the tyranny of the majority” – was that a faction could grow to encompass more than 50 percent of the population, at which point it could“sacrifice to its ruling passion or interest both the public good and the rights of other citizens.” Madison has a solution for tyranny of the majority: “A republic, by which I mean a government in which the scheme of representation takes place, opens a different prospect, and promises the cure for which we are seeking.” As Alexander Hamilton writes in “The Federalist Papers,” the Constitution is designed to ensure “that the office of President will never fall to the lot of any man who is not in an eminent degree endowed with the requisite qualifications.” The point of the Electoral College is to preserve “the sense of the people,” while at the same time ensuring that a president is chosen “by men most capable of analyzing the qualities adapted to the station, and acting under circumstances favorable to deliberation, and to a judicious combination of all the reasons and inducements which were proper to govern their choice.” This is not about "we just don't trust this guy and don't feel he is qualified". This is about protecting the smaller, less populated areas or the country. It's about making sure that the newer "colonies had some say. The "tyranny of the majority" is about making sure that some overpopulated areas such as New York, Pennsylvania or California didn't have complete say in elections. The "rights of other citizens" is not in reference to gays or any minority, it's a reference to protecting people in less developed or rural areas of the country. The "scheme of representation" also refers to the people of rural areas. The "sense of the people" is a clear shout out to a more even distribution of policies - regardless of popular vote. "Eminent degree endowed with the requisite qualifications" is not about demagogues or experienced politicians, it's about having a leader that equally represents people of all areas of the country. Forgetting the EC will lead to politicians cow towing to the likes of California, Pennsylvania, New York and a handful of major cities and the rest will be left out in the cold. This will certainly fall into the "tyranny of the majority" category that Madison was speaking against. Here in Canada, politicians couldn't give a shit about anything except winning Ontario and Quebec. The rest ion Canada can pound sand as far as our federal leaders are concerned-and it shows.

The EC is not about protecting from a whack job - despite what Martin Sheen says, it's to give representation to areas that otherwise would be forgotten. Without the EC, California, New York and a handful of large cities would dictate the election. As for Canada, Trudeau got 55% of the seats with only about 40% of the popular vote (more voters voted against Trudeau than voted for him). Fact is, Trump did better all around than Trudeau did in his election.

Of course, and their behaviour during whatever protest will determine the actions of those around them.

Just because people have a right to do something, doesn't make it consequence free.

So, what makes a person post something so idiotic as the above 2 posts if not being manipulated from the fear mongers?

^^ This is clearly a result of the fear mongering from the left.

I just heard (hold on to your hats); German police believe the suspect has ties to radical Islam, also he was being investigated for suspicion of planning an attack.

Are you onguardforthee?

It's pretty sad that western Europe has to put out travel warnings - to westerners.

Why should Canada do any legwork when the US is willing to do it for us.
