I see, so that makes it not okay to defend himself? A cop can only shoot an advancing perp if the perp actually breaks bones? is that supposed to be the takeaway here?

So it doesn't matter if it's true or not because you've already made up your mind? Is that what I'm supposed to takeaway from your comment?

Look in a mirror and repeat to yourself EXACTLY what you just said!

Because it appears to me that you have done exactly what you are accusing others of doing!

Take a deep breath and think about it.........

What on earth makes you think I trust the MSM? It's true they can't outright lie but play sides back and forth, duh... yeah.

Left/Right... I am what I am as you are what you are there's no point in being disingenuous about it. What is critical is well, critical thought, not ALL Right Wingers are wrong all the time, in my eyes and there's even many things I agree with Conservatives with about. I try (and fail sometimes) to be objective about everything but if I think it's BS I will call it such without hesitation and I don't mince my words. Choose to see me however you like.

Funny how the very same people that were calling for Wilson's head based on the testimony of a shady little thugmanot are now advising people to withhold judgment until all the facts are known.

You! are the one that threw out the right winger remark in your one of your past comments! Hell you even emphasized it by putting it in parenthesis!

That's what I love about ATS, once you put a stain on yourself you only have so long to clean it! Other than that, your screwed! It's there on the internet forever to show others how your acting out in a hypocritical manner to push a personal agenda!

So are you back peddling on it now?

As you don't care about how I see you per your comment, I don't care how you view or see me either! But one thing for sure! I will call you out on your BS when I see it!

That you can bank on!

The source of the claim of the broken eye socket is a right wing blogger, that isn't being bias or partisan it's just stating a fact. If it had been a left wing blogger, I would have said that as well.

Many blogs are apolitical like a food blog you call a food blog or even get more specific like Indian food blog.
Some blogs just Headline News blogs, so you call them headline news blogs.
Some blogs are political and some are left wing, some are right wing... this came from a right wing blogger... I was using it as adjective not a condemnation.

I have noticed a general characteristic among right-wingers particularly those who commonly speak of progressives/liberals/socialists as if those are all one thing and who are all are to blame for any social, economic or climatic wrongs in the world (when it's not directly attributable to President Obama, THANKS OBAMA!) generally attempt to diffuse and refocus a topic in which they are proven factually inaccurate by focusing on the supposedly "partisan" views of whomever they're arguing with.

Isn't that ironic?

... almost as ironic as the general characteristic that those same right-wingers have been blasting with the "beware the heavy-handed, jack-booted government overreach" justification for everything from assault rifles to merging church and state ... that is UNTIL we all witness a local PD with military grade weaponry assault American citizens in FULL DAYLIGHT ... and then, well, folks are looting, right?

The Law is the Law, right?

Thank you, Judge Dredd.

I know your history dear!

Twist the truth how you will, I am too old to buy your BS!!!!!

Your still back peddling and trying to justify why you put into parenthesis (rightwing blogger)! My point is what difference does it make UNLESS, you oppose the truth no matter what the source!

Quite frankly, I don't believe a God damn bit of anything that is being thrown at us as facts! There is an agenda in this tragedy and it is not for the benefit of you nor I!

What really pisses me off though, is folk like you and many others that are like sharks smelling blood in the water! It's feeding time, and all you want to do is feed the political frenzy that suits your taste for the day! The hell with the truth!

Unfortunately, "CNN Reports" has often had little to do with facts.
In the rush to post/publish, CNN has often abandoned objectivity and factual analysis for hearsay and hyperbole.
They are today a punch-line as often as a "source."
CNN has very little credibility anymore.

Give me a solid reference, and I can draw my own conclusions.

What about the Governor calling for a quick prosecution? All of the activists calling for Wilson's immediate arrest?
Have you chosen to ignore the rush to judgment?

Its a figure of speech that I'm sure you're familiar with.

Deniacrats... gotta love em.

Solid reference? Considering all of our news is disseminated by what? 3 to 4 major corporations?

I am not making fun of you, but you bring up a very good point that all of us should pay attention too! Who do we believe when everything has been bought and paid for and psychologically used against us?

I pointed out that a story that went viral yesterday has been called into question. Here's where I weighed in whether or not I believed the story earlier in this thread:

It's another "anonymous source close to the investigation" and I wouldn't bet my life on something an anonymous person said but I would assume that CNN does some sort of vetting. All things considered, I think it does cast some meaningful doubt on the orbital blowout fracture story and it's consistent with statements by the FPD Chief.

I've clearly made up my mind right? I never said I hadn't formed an opinion, but it's just an opinion and it's subject to change. If you'd like to waste your time going through my posts about this, perhaps you could point out where I have claimed to know the truth about what happened?

... and we know your history "dear" ...

not to mention Boney's ...

Sooo ... now you're trying to go all partisan victimization? Is this the War on Wingnuts?

Come on y'all ... SERIOUSLY???

The blog Kali referenced IS a right-wing blog ... calling it so is simply descriptive.

But, with typical wing-nut apoplexy, you're now desperately trying to draw attention to insignificant details and launch personal attacks masquerading as righteous, even-handed indignation ... even though Bone couldn't leave out a "Democrat" dig for even two posts.

You aren't fooling anyone.

What's my history then?

If you knew it, you damn sure wouldn't be dumb enough to question what I am trying to say!

So why don't you do me and the rest of ATS a favor and tell EVERYONE my history!

Let me give you a hint! My history will PROVE, I hate those whom follow the left/right paradigm!

Prove me wrong!

Interesting challenge, one I'd love to take you up on because it'd be such a simple "win" ...

However, there's this thing at ATS about staying on topic ... and you are NOT the topic of this discussion.

May I calmly suggest that we all back off the silly personal comments and get back to discussing the issues?

Or, you can start crowing about winning and we can keep this up until one or both of us start getting off-topic posts deleted ...

I'm game, are you?

a reply to: seeker1963

You! are the one that threw out the right winger remark in your one of your past comments! Hell you even emphasized it by putting it in parenthesis!

Oh is that what this is about? Are you doing you're "I'm not partisan, but I only point out when I think left-wingers are motivated by politics" bit?

That's a whole different thing entirely. I haven't made up my mind about this shooting because there's not enough information but I'll sure as hell comment about how off the rails the right-wing nutjobs have gone if that's a conversation you'd like to have?

a reply to: seeker1963

I don't back pedal.
Have fun.

Really, then let's do it! Your full of snip and you know GD well, all you have to do is look at my past posts on ATS!

What's your challenge?

You were referencing ATSers. I haven't seen any ATSer call for the officers head.
WTF is a deniacrat?
