    There are a few posters here who will demand proof of xy and z, but when you post your data, will not look at it. They will say they want a debate, but won't discuss anything. They just make broad statements, but usually have no data to back it up and don't have any interest in any data that conflicts with their per-concieved ideas. "bluesguy" and "sec" have both done this multiple times lately, and seem to be doing it to others.
    My advice would be to not waste too much time on someone who is disingenuous about actually having a debate.

    How do I defend something you didn't dispute?
    Every statement I made is a historical fact, not opinion.
    Now, if you think they are false, then you can state why they are false instead of
    but but Trump.
    Irrelevant name calling.
    You're mudslinging.
    Sticks and stones.
    statues were erected during Jim Crow .
    Oh, boo hoo. This lying turkey...
    bears false witness nearly every time he opens his mouth.
    Kwitchurbellyachin'.
    The jackasses who invaded the Capitol

    Those are not disputes of what I posted, They are just whining and off topic rants over what I posted.
    So either dispute the claims with facts, or you can just post more whines.
    Your choice

    The radicalized lefts idea of Democracy and public security is,
    Do exactly as I command or lose your livelihood forever
    Any business that speaks against the left must be canceled
    Don't try and stop me from looting your stores
    If you piss us off we will burn down your businesses
    If you disagree with us you will be attacked in restaurants and on the street
    If you run a candidate we don't like and he wins we will bury you in thousands a fake claims with our 24/7 media coverage
    We will corrupt your children with CRT and if you don't like it you're now considered a Domestic terrorist
    We can publicly call Larry Elder the black face of white supremacy but your a racist
    We will block your interstates if you have a rally in our towns
    We will spy on your bank accounts that must report any purchase over $600 but we will pass a 3 trillion dollar bill without even reading it
    If you even dare to stop or slow down illegal immigration you're a xenophobe
    We will illegally tear down every statue we don't like because we are offended
    We will bare false witness against any Republican candidate for the SCOTUS
    We will defund the police and label them all as racist so they quit their jobs by the thousands because we don't want anyone interfering with our riots
    And if you fight back you are a violent Republican and a threat to democracy.

    Space aliens MAY land on Earth soon. So violence MAY be necessary to restore our Constitutional rights. That word leaves a lot of wiggle room.

    I don’t know exactly what you’re talking about, but it is not I who is being disingenuous in the discussion, it was Nemesis. Even as I explained that a textbook definition of CRT so narrowly defined as to exclude anything other than an academic discussion was not at the heart of parents’ anger at racial oppressors and oppressed racial warfare being taught in school, he tries to drag me into an endless nitpicking discussion. His insistence on an academic definition is irrelevant to the issue. I’m very willing to have a discussion on realities, but I won’t play his childish game, nor that of anyone else, who just wants to wrestle in the mud.

    I hear you on the childish games part. Some here actually would like to debate, I personally learn a lot from reading this forum.
    I wasn't necessarily talking about you in that post as I can't remember any exchanges with you, just sort of in general as there are some here who will demand some type of proof, or say they want a discussion, but don't really want to have an exchange of ideas, they just want to repeatedly blast you with their talking points and/or opinions. Sorry if it sounded like I was singling you out, which I didn't intend on. I try to stay out of the middle of most of the "arguments" on here, but sometimes succumb to the pressure of responding to posts that are misleading or outright falsehoods.

    Yes, and I remind you the self-defense action must be proportionate to the threat. You can't shoot someone for tossing flowers at you.

    Teachers are plain folks, leaning left.

    If we want more conservatives in teaching, we'll have to raise the pay.

    They certainly have little to offer on K-12 education.

    What "special right" have they been granted in terms of "public benefits?"

    I really don’t care about the political leanings of teachers as long as they aren’t effecting the teaching materials and classroom conduct. When I was in school, admittedly a very long time ago, I had teachers who had strong political beliefs but kept them out of their classrooms. How did I know their political leanings? I went to school in a small rural town where people knew everything about everyone. University in a big city was different, but I still didn’t feel we were being pressured by political propaganda.

    We're unlikely to have a sane political dialogue in this country if we keep tossing around BS about Marxism, fascism, etc.

    I always made a point of telling students I believed the important political opinion was theirs and that I wanted for them what I wanted for myself--the right to decide matters as a citizen in a free society.

    We already have a national ID of sorts in the Social Security card except that it isn't secure.

    The technology exists in the Nexus Pass to have an ID that can be confirmed by a smartphone.

    30% of 60,000,000 is 18,000,000.
    5% of 18,000,000 is 900,000.
    What each of us sees is hardly random.

    You're clutching at straws in an effort to find the vaccines are unsafe.

    Absurd.
    Absurd.
    The street perps are not teachers.

    Anyway, you never dealt with what I wrote about Portland or Seattle.

    I don't believe the burden of evidence should be on me to prove they are unsafe, considering they are not exactly the obvious necessary life-saver your side imagines them to be.
    There are several indications that they may be less safe than other vaccines. Other vaccines which, in reality, are far more effective than this one.

    By the way, I've never been in favor of forced vaccines for the entire population. But trying to coerce this one on people is just all the worse.
    Let's be clear, what we're talking about is not whether YOU personally should decide to take this. The burden of proof is going to have to be a lot greater if you're talking about pushing this on others in the way that has been attempted.

    But maybe some people like you cannot understand the difference. You think if it seems good to you, you don't see why there should be any reason not to force it on everyone else.

    I do no see any logic in supporting racial/gender war, open border policies, crime facilitation, promotion of sexual perversion and pederasty, etc
    How citizens of this country can possibly benefits from those brain damaging politics?
    I also do not understand what is the motives of those people (so call shadow government). What they are gaining from implementing those idiocies, What is the profit or self-interest?
    The only explanation I came up with is that their goal is to totally destroy the society, ruin the country and then build some kind of new utopian world.

    18% of social scientists in America self-identify as marxists.

    You see that which you choose to look upon. And remember, half of not hearing is caused by not listening.

    So you actually believe 18 million Americans want political violence but we see very few actually engaging in such ?

    Well, continue having faith in your polls and your beliefs. I'll stick with observable reality.

    You stick with the obvious propaganda. It confirms what you have set upon to "see" rather nicely.

    That is a hard question to answer.
