Well, maybe that’s what free speech is to you, but the framers of the First Amendment seem to have had other ideas:
Bolding mine.

He came in like a hurricane.
Spouting Octoputz’s agenda like a brother-in-arms.
Which of course was done as a satire based on the offensive things the Trump said. Let me guess, you probably think Johnathan Swift hated the Irish.
ETA: Realizing that this reference probably went over the head of someone with your limited erudition. Here is a hint about what I’m referring to.
Bill Maher - Muslim Jokes; all being terrorists and rapists
George Lopez - White Jokes; racist, rich and stuck up
Steve Harvey - Asian Jokes; cheap and bad drivers
Roseanne Barr makes a Muslim joke that is much milder than other similar jokes that are accepted and says the woman who is not obvious in her black ancestry(i found that out here, I didn’t even know) has similarity to the female creature from Planet Of The Apes… Turn off the leftist conspiracy radar, it had nothing to do with her being part black.
What’s the only difference? She supports Trump.
Virtue signaling as far as the eyes can see and ears can hear. The joke was definitely poorly planned and could have been better but yes it was an attempt at a joke that failed. Sure it was obviously and definitely ABC’s right to cancel, but don’t even try to think they are doing it because of some moral/ethical reasoning. It is because they are afraid of the virtuous, holier than thou leftist contingent being easily offended and losing money/sponsors and viewers, nothing more. They were afraid of the backlash from the masses of butthurt people with too much misplaced guilt.
People really need to fucking get over themselves and the overinflated sense of moral worthiness to society.
The same principle applies to “Shall Not Be Infringed” in another particular amendment, but I digress.
Go back and read my OP, you pathetic loser. Targeted racism or bullying is never a joke. That’s gaslighting by the asshole who said it to put the blame on the victim for reacting to it.
Virtue Signalling: * A phrase uttered by vile human beings in a vain attempt to insult and deride others for being better humans than they are.
*
Translation: “People need to stop thinking they’re better than me!”
Clearly missing the “well regulated” part earlier in that amendment as being inconvenient. :rolleyes:
in-arms, in-arms, in-arms, in-arms, in-arms, in-arms, in-arms.

Then why is it accepted and not outrage inducing to those that are ‘approved’ by sharing similar political ideology?
*Virtue Signalling: * A phrase uttered by vile human beings in a vain attempt to insult and deride others for being better humans than they are.
**
Now for a real definition from Cambridge Dictionary: "an attempt to show other people that you are a good person, for example by expressing opinions that will be acceptable to them, especially on social media"
*Translation: “People need to stop thinking they’re better than me!”
Actual Translation: "Liberal bleeding hearts need to stop thinking they are better than everyone else and know what is best for the world"
It can make you forget to mail in a registration too.
No, it is very self explanatory and literal.
“well-regulated militia”
Definition of “militia” from American Heritage Dictionary: * An army composed of ordinary citizens rather than professional soldiers.*
Commandment 3: You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain.
I did not realize that “fuck” was God’s name.
Ever think about telling these racists that you find their speech offensive? If one of these louts called your sister a whore, would you just smile and not get offended also?
This is just like those “gotcha ya!” threads that pull out some obscure thing that just happened and demand why there is no liberal outrage. I hadn’t even heard of the last two’s style of jokes, so feel free to start your own thread if you’re offended. Bill Maher does get his share of stick on this MB for his offensiveness.
Let’s break down some key words.
“A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.”
That’s two implications of ordinary citizens and not professional/organized military. The mere fact that it is reiterated is more than enough to prove its meaning.
Enough side-tracking. Let the Republican bashing continue as it were.
Not in this same volume, he doesn’t.
This is not a “gotcha ya!” thread or whatever that is. I am not offended at all, I just don’t like obvious hypocrisy. Even then, it’s fine but those that profess such alleged integrity in their morals at least need to be congruent at least half the time. It’s like they don’t even try.
“THIS HISPANIC COMEDIAN IS MAKING FUN OF THE GUY WHO SAID HIS PEOPLE WERE ALL RAPISTS AND MURDERERS, AND THAT’S NOT FAIR GUYS!” is not a winning argument, Anon1.
Nothing is more inspiring than a cry to lower the bar when it comes to how he treat each other as human beings.
It’s quite obviously alluding to the seemingly normal application of hypocrisy from the stereotypical left wing. Nothing to do with lowering the bar, it’s about consistency. If you [general you] want to be taken seriously, you have to at least attempt some consistency in ideology and agenda.
HE DID IT FIRST! Just kidding.
In seriousness,
Not arguing, just giving my opinions on the matter. Apologies if I seem a little heated with them, have off of work today and have not had any coffee yet.
