    What do you think about with current News and Opinions?

    Tweety replied to guest1163268's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I have to roll my eyes at this one. When I think of it, I think "damn that man crashed his car into those people" or "that man ran over a bunch of people". I don't think less of myself for not...

    Ritttenhouse Trial

    Tweety replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I Googled there are such a things as "shotgun microphones". It does look like what's in the picture I posted above. So if you knew about it, that's what you'd see. But from behind it does look like...

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    You seem very fixated that a few people have likened Trumpism to Nazism and are so unforgiving that's a big issue to you. That's okay you're allowed. I have been around long enough to see some...

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I get it. The body positivity movement spearheaded by millenials with their "I'm fat and that's okay" is dangerous in that it undermines the seriousness of obesity. Mostly people want to be...

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Trump was a bit ridiculous in his anti-woke sentiment, which at the time was anti-"politically correct". He made a big deal that thanks to him we can now say Merry Christmas even though Obama said it...

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I've talked about it before but the generation that is raising school aged children were raised by parents (Gen X and Boomers) that gave them participation trophies, that shielded them from any kind...

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Really unless you're the person's best friend, a doctor or a nurse taking direct care of them, or their family, then commenting that a person is fat is not necessary. Keeping silent is just decency...

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    It might sound silly or too woke, but I think we've reach a point in our society that we do need to acknowledge these subtle racisms because so many people say racism doesn't exist any more in...

    Ritttenhouse Trial

    Tweety replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I think I agree. I can't remember a group of protestors more demonized that BLM. I really do hate that that many of them turn into riots. But listen to the talk about them. When it's BLM it's...

    Ritttenhouse Trial

    Tweety replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I actually thought it was a barrel of a weapon too which makes it all the more foolish that she's doing what she's doing. That it's a microphone makes more sense. It highlights my point that so much...

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I think that's two parts. First part, yes people should give credit for evolving as time goes on. My parents called me all sorts of names and sent to therapy when I came out 40 years ago. Today...

    Ritttenhouse Trial

    Tweety replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    I would be concerned for sure. I'd stay indoors with gun ready hoping they kept marching on by, but wouldn't run outside and face them down with my little handgun. I can almost understand...

    President Biden thread

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Somewhere along the line it was established and expected that he pick a minority and a minority female at that. So I agree that she was picked because she was female and mixed race. But beyond that...

    What do you think about with current News and Opinions?

    Tweety replied to guest1163268's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    All good points. I suppose it is an issue to grapple with. I'm just frustrated with how it's the main headline and how quick they were to blame liberals. They don't do the same thing when a...

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Fair enough, I know people judge a person by their past and use that to judge how they feel about them today, or don't let go of the past regardless of present actions and use that to point out...

    What do you think about with current News and Opinions?

    Tweety replied to guest1163268's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    The main headline over at Fox News, meaning it's the most important news story of the moment to them is that liberals let the guy accused of running down people in the Christmas parade out on a $1,000...

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Yes, anything around being "woke" is ridiculed and is considered "cancel culture". I think his heart's in the right place and he wants to make things better and make minorities feel like they've...

    Ritttenhouse Trial

    Tweety replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Kyle should have stayed home and the couple should have stayed indoors. The protestors would have kept moving. They weren't a target. I have made note of protestors open carrying weapons...

    Ritttenhouse Trial

    Tweety replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Well let me remind you that they did point the gun at the protestors. I don't know about all those other claims as that is perhaps only their side of the story and they escalated the situation. My...

    Again, another controversy I'm not aware of, but I do tend to learn as I go. Perhaps you can tell me what you're talking about. There's a few things Google is telling me, about lynching, a line of...

    I had to Google that because for a crisis I hadn't heard of it. Interesting topic. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-58106414 Our progressive (outgoing) mayor apparently understood....

    Tweety replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    As I said in 2020 I didn't think mayor of a small city was qualifications for President compared to some of the other candidates, especially Sanders, however if you're talking 2024 after four years in...

    Ritttenhouse Trial

    Tweety replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Since this trial I'm processing how I feel about vigilantism. One the one hand if you have a business where there's been rioting and looting, you want to protect that property and you should...

    Ritttenhouse Trial

    Tweety replied to nursej22's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Post trial Rittenhouse about Biden.. an insinuation Rittenhouse called “actual malice, defaming my character.” Not bad language for an 18 year old, but remember he had the best legal team money...

    Loss of Leadership

    Tweety replied to SunDazed's topic in General Nursing

    That doesn't sound like a good situation. I don't think it's entirely uncommon for management to be replaced or quit when new owners come along. We had a buy out a year ago and they did away...
