I saw this (non religious) video on Facebook and it made me angry

[FatAndFaithless]

Good lord. You've made the jump from circlejerk-logic Christian apologist to a tinfoil-behatted conspiracy theorist pretty quickly. It's always rich to listen to someone like you scream about indoctrination, facts, and wanting the truth.

so.. you believe the video protrays the events recorded honestly?

I didn't say a damn thing one way or the other. I'm more concerned with your all caps screams of propaganda and Nazi-comparisons, with the obligatory slippery slope to genocide thrown in. Very unhealthy way of addressing any issue, Drippy.

[Drich]

yup.

Your whole arguement was predicated on my appeal to emotion. I dismissed your whole efforts because my arguement was not an appeal to emotion. It was indeed based in fact and in reason.

My argument laid bare the objective and measurable racial disparity in the U.S. criminal justice system. Neither your video nor your conspiratorial commentary addressed my argument. You haven't dismissed my argument, you simply ignored it because it demolishes your preconceived notions.

have you considered that your arguement is what is off topic if infact my post and analysis of the video does not address it?

So what do you think? Does the video accurately protray the events it dipicts?

Dunno. I ain't gonna watch it.

So you believe the formulation of a strong opinion is wrong, but to bury your head in the sand because a topic might have you side with what you have deemed to be the 'unhealthy' is a viable way to think?

Those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it.

If you take Himmler's subject matter out of his propaganda films, and observe the technique, you will see it mirrored here in this 'anti racism film.'

The subject matter is a secondary issue to the usage of this tactic and our blind following of it.

Yes it does raise awareness of a problem we have in the country, but it also poses a question. If the problem is as bad as the film makers want us to believe, then why not show the truth?

You know, Drich... not everyone will get the reference... I think you're taking this nickname a bit too far. It was fun once or twice, but it's becoming weird...

If you don't want me calling you by a nick name just say so.. In turn i kindly ask you do the same.

I call you Drich. Always have. It's the only name I have to call you.
I've seen others call you drippy... I'm not fond of that.

You may call me pocaracas, or just poca. That pro carrots thing is a bit too different and even I, at first, didn't make the connection.

fair enough.. I had too many carrots in my quiver anyways.

You and rexbec carroxs (pronounced carrots)

[Minimalist]

Holy Crap, what is wrong with wanting to be told the truth, and then making a desision based off the whole facts?

Your whole life is testimony to the fact that you don't want truth but fantasy, Drippy.

Why not just call me Becca or rex? My user name has nothing whatever to do with carrots, and like poca, I don't have a nickname for you, so...

Losty, a little off topic but it may help:

Go get a spare key made and a bit of flexible but strong wire.
Make a loop in the wire to hold the key.
Bend the wire in a U and slide the key behind your license plate.
Remember that it's there.

I did all the above for my wife, including the last sentence.

Personally, I never lock my car.
Nothing in it is as valuable as having to replace a window.
On nice days my car is the only one in the parking lot w/ all the windows down.

Good advice. I hate to ever say good things about my exhusband but this is something he was good for. Maybe not in the best ways, but still I almost never locked my keys in my car when I was married.
I would take your advice, but unless you're going to PM me every day and remind me, I will most certainly forget it's there.

You posted video and commentary attempting to show that claims of racial disparity regarding criminal activity are merely propoganda. I gave you information that thoroughly refutes your claim. My contribution was on topic and deftly showed you to be full of shit. Ignoring it doesn't make you right or legitimize your claims.
