"The Hunting Ground" is a complete piece of crap

As for this thread, I have no problem saying CNN is total garbage, and has almost nothing in the way of journalistic integrity. Regardless of that, jamie is piece of garbage too, so if if he got screwed the way he has done others, well, I won't lose sleep over it.

Yea, no kidding.

All the furor about rampant sexual assault on college campuses is just stupid. But when FSU gets caught up in it all, the rest of the civilized world looks on with amusement.

And it so easy to prove it is stupid! The same NYT editors and CNN commentators who say idiotic crap like "the rape culture" on college campuses, or that 1 in 4 women will be sexually assaulted at a university still send their daughters off to school!

Now, if you wanna say there is a rape culture in jimbo's locker room, well that is another story :p
 
Wow, all that writing and you still didn't make a dent in the argument, it's just a bunch of semantical nonsense and ad homenin attacks. Perhaps you should get your jimmies unrustled before proceeding.

Harding said he couldn't find either side more credible than the other. That is far cry from saying that neither party is credible.

Meh. Not worth responding to such deluded reasoning.

Go beat your chest on the Smackboard. You win.

What I find so funny is that the journalistic media source that has taken this crap to task the most is on the far left (only Daily Kos and Salon are much farther out there): Slate. Slate has done a number of article exposing the shoddy research on the issue and the vested interests of those conducting the studies.

It's funny too when leftists try and tear down the universities, whether it is "rape culture" or the BLM nonsense, when the universities are overwhelmingly leftist to begin with.

The progressives have bit off more than they can chew. Their little darlings are even turning on them. Just look at the insanity at Yale over Halloween costumes. I remember when I was at UF in the late 1980s the very point of whatever costume you wore was to be as offensive as possible.

I remember a friend of mine who was in the Navy SEALS for six years royally pissing off a bunch of Jewish students when he dressed up as a Brown Shirt complete with a Swastika armband. One kid tried to tear it off his arm and literally got slapped down for it.
 
Over my lifetime, I have generally identified as moderately liberal.

But, in the last five years, or so, something has changed. Maybe it's just me getting older, but it really feels like the Left has gone so far to the Left that they went all the way around the bend and became the new fascists. Remember 20 years ago, when it was the religious fanatics that had their noses in everyone else's business? They've been replaced by the new Left.

It's funny how the extreme Left and extreme Right are almost indistinguishable in their contempt for decorum and freedom.

I'm considering voting Republican, purely out of spite. If some wacko like Trump gets elected, at least the Left will have something legit to sink their pointy teeth into.

In all seriousness, Ghost, this is where the Left has us pinned:

It was the young idealist university students who first took Hitler's call to action to heart and gathered to burn over 20,000 books in 1933.

Among the 20,000 volumes hurled into the flames were the writings of Henri Barbusse, Franz Boas, John Dos Passos, Albert Einstein, Lion Feuchtwanger, Friedrich Förster, Sigmund Freud, John Galsworthy, André Gide, Ernst Glaeser, Maxim Gorki, Werner Hegemann, Ernest Hemingway, Erich Kästner, Helen Keller, Alfred Kerr, Jack London, Emil Ludwig, Heinrich Mann, Thomas Mann, Karl Marx, Hugo Preuss, Marcel Proust, Erich Maria Remarque, Walther Rathenau, Margaret Sanger, Arthur Schnitzler, Upton Sinclair, Kurt Tucholsky, Jakob Wassermann, H.G. Wells, Theodor Wolff, Emilé Zola, Arnold Zweig, and Stefan Zweig.

In the end of the Third Reich, it was the units made up of Hitler Youth who mostly fought until the bitter end.

In the Ruhr area of Germany, HJ boys practiced guerilla warfare against invading U.S. troops. In the forests, the boys stayed hidden until the tanks had passed, waiting for the foot soldiers. They would then spring up, shoot at them and throw grenades, inflicting heavy causalities, then dash away and disappear back into the forest. The Americans retaliated with furious air-attacks and leveled several villages in the surrounding area.

If the boys happened to get cornered by American patrols, they often battled until the last boy was killed rather than surrender. And the boys kept getting younger. American troops reported capturing armed 8-year-olds at Aachen in Western Germany and knocking out artillery units operated entirely by boys aged twelve and under. Girls were also used now, operating the 88mm anti-aircraft guns alongside the boys.


The young all share the same erroneous thought. Their ideas are new ideas that no one has had and are so important that any means are acceptable to implement them. Their naivety prevents them from having any appreciable self-awareness to see that they are replicating the very behavior they abhor.

This is the problem in a nutshell.
