An NPR guy went rogue and hung out with some rednecks! Even went hunting..

Excerpt

Spurred by a fear that red and blue America were drifting irrevocably apart, I decided to venture out from my overwhelmingly Democratic neighborhood and engage Republicans where they live, work and pray. For an entire year, I embedded myself with the other side, standing in pit row at a NASCAR race, hanging out at Tea Party meetings and sitting in on Steve Bannon’s radio show. I found an America far different from the one depicted in the press and imagined by presidents (“cling to guns or religion”) and presidential candidates (“basket of deplorables”) alike.

I spent many Sundays in evangelical churches and hung out with 15,000 evangelical youth at the Urbana conference. I wasn’t sure what to expect among thousands of college-age evangelicals, but I certainly didn’t expect the intense discussion of racial equity and refugee issues — how to help them, not how to keep them out — but that is what I got.

Good.
  A Left wing, Ultra  Liberal,
Actually has the  BALLS, to Actually SEE/LIVE,
   the other side.

(It is why, the, ‘Gun-Nuts’, Invite, ‘non gun, or gun hating’, people to SHOOT.
With the firearms, and ammo, and targets, all FREE.
With a experienced person helping them.
Yet few, take a, ‘Gun Club’, up on the offers.
Why ?  Simple, ‘Don’t confuse them with the FACTS,
  Their Mind is  Already, made up.)

But the article is still, (somewhat), good.
However, the Ultra-Liberals that read the, NY Post,
      will not, (no hope of it),  Change their mind.

      Here is the, ‘Real’, skin of the reporter showing through.

He states: “The mainstream media is constantly under attack by the president. They are “frankly disgusting,” “tremendously dishonest,” “failing,” “they make up the stories”.
     What ?
(That’s  just  Propaganda, 101. Turn what what the opposition says, against them.)

Then:  “…It is an amazing story, (reporter talking about a  Self Defense use of a firearm), though far from unique, but you simply won’t find many like it in mainstream media…”
“… dismissed by the media as myth. But DGUs, (Self Defense),  happen all the time — 200 times a day…”
” …It’s not that media is suppressing stories intentionally. It’s that these stories don’t reflect their interests and beliefs….”

And early on, to, ‘frame’, the report:
“…liberals outnumber conservatives in the media by some 5 to 1…”

SO, If the,  ‘MEDIA’, is  5 to 1.
If the Liberal, ‘MEDIA’, does not print stories, that, “…don’t reflect their interests…”.

Hell  YEA, ‘It’s,  ‘Fake’, ’News’.
Because it is,   NOT,  the, ’NEWS’,  
      it is the, OPINION,
               OF, the ‘reporter’.
  (As the  above article, attests to)

But wait, on this forum,
 a person has to, Actually, READ, the whole thing.
   Then, have the ability, to, ‘Understand’, it.
      Which in some posters, is, ‘Lacking’.

Here is a POV JOG.
 
           racial equity
 So a Black skinned person, cannot buy a house, in a White skinned peoples, neighborhood.
           Yet, they can pay for it.
(So a ‘house’, becomes, ’Buying’, anything, or ‘Renting’)
   With the proviso, they can pay for it.
     Who is at fault ?
Is it the Person that owns the house, and are selling/renting it, themselves?
Is it a  RE, Agent, or Company, refusing them?
Is it a Neighborhood, ‘group’, or homeowners association ?
  (If it is a Job, then, what are the the Qualifications for that position)
If it is one of them, or several of them.
  Punish Them !

Nop, Can’t do that.    Have to write a  LAW.
  Which works for the first couple of years, then sharply, ‘degrades’,
   as the, ‘person’  LEARNS, they can get, ANYTHING,
     by JUST, Tossing out the, “But I am Special, the Law Says so, Card”
(Also known as the, ‘Race’, ‘Gender’, ‘Religion’, ‘Refugee', 'Sexual Preference', etc. etc. etc. Card)

So that Person, (With that Card), can buy Buy something, with OUT being able to Pay for it.
Or, get a Job, without being, Qualified, for it.  
  (Where the  Job  Giver, is,  Punished, for hiring a  Qualified person, over a Non Qualified person, when the Non Qualified person, has that Card)

So, someone who is Female, (in a mostly Male type Job),  who is also of  Hispanic, African and Muslim mix decent, who is also gay.  
Who is, QUALIFIED, for the job.  Is turned Down, by XYZ  Company.
Simple, that person, punishes  XYZ  Company.  (Through the Courts)
Now, “I know, Lets  Make a Law”
     (Sounds like;  “I Know, lets put on a Show”.  M. Rooney, S. Temple)
So we now have a, ’Non Discrimination’ LAW.
Which worked for a while, but NOW,   It  Punishes, XYZ  Company,
for  NOT, hiring the, “Gay, Female, of  Hispanic, African and Muslim mix decent”,
who is,  NOT,  Qualified for the Job.

And it, Punishes the  seller of something,
for Not, selling something to someone
     who can NOT pay for it.

(Well  as-long as they that have that, ’special’, CARD)

I think it is time to re-visit that law, and take out the, ‘Gimmie, Gimmie, Gimmers’

            refugee issues
1st question, WHO, made them a  ‘Refugee’.
 If it was someone else, (talking Nations here),
 They would be responsible.
  (Excepting the case, of a  Life Threatening case)
If it was through acts of this Nation.
Then Help them,  In Their Own Country, where they have their Own Customs, and Beliefs.
If some want to, Immigrate, to This Country.
   Great  !   But  do it Correctly, like the Several Billions have done before them.

Do not bring ‘refugees’ in,  Willy-Nilly,  and allow them to be the, ’Trojan Horse’, who’s belly is FILLED, with people that want  to  KILL,  destroy, disrupt, change the very fundamental things this Nation, was Founded on.  
 Help them, Sure, No Problem.
 But do it, where, They are comfortable.
(And if you have to buy a tent, which cost  $200.00 here, at a Store.
Make Darn sure, it is not, $20,000.00, from a  Company,
     Who has, H.R.C. in their Back Pocket)


Their JOG,  My Opinion.

Would Love to hear the, ‘Opinion’, of a,  person who has said, 'Numerous Times’
“Oh, and for the record, I do indeed support the ideals of ANTIFA, but not the violence.”
Where, almost all of those who align with Antifa are from the extreme political left, usually identifying as communists, socialists, or anarchists.
