Weren't they and shouldn't they have been? :rofl: Where are those women now in regards to the Biden sexual misconduct allegations? With Biden we have video of him touching young girls inappropriately.



Regardless, was the image from NY or Italy? Are you saying this image was indeed from NY?

The recommendation against their combined use would seem to fly in the face of comments made by President Trump suggesting the combination might be helpful. On March 21, for example, the president described them in a tweet as having a "real chance to be one of the biggest game changers in the history of medicine."

Fox News Quietly Backs Away From Hyping Trump’s Coronavirus ‘Miracle Drug’

After spending two full weeks of programming touting an anti-malarial drug as a coronavirus cure, Fox’s primetime stars have pulled back almost entirely—and so has the president.
www.thedailybeast.com www.thedailybeast.com

After weeks of incessantly hyping an unproven anti-malarial drug as a potential miracle cure for the coronavirus, Fox News has seemingly ditched its nearly round-the-clock promotion of hydroxychloroquine. Unsurprisingly, the change in tone coincided with President Donald Trump’s own retreat from touting the drug, and comes as multiple studies have shown no benefit to COVID-19 patients. Beginning in mid-to-late March and ramping up through the first two weeks of April, the president repeatedly lauded hydroxychloroquine—a drug developed decades ago to combat malaria and currently also used to treat lupus and rheumatoid arthritis—as a “game-changer” that has brought people back from the dead. “What really do we have to lose?” Trump implored the public earlier this month, adding that the drug “doesn’t kill people.” Doctors and medical experts, however, consistently warned that the drug has some severe side effects, such as sudden cardiac arrest. As is often the case with the cable-news obsessed president, Trump only began promoting the malaria drug as a miracle cure after his favorite Fox opinion hosts openly touted it on-air and in private meetings with him. According to Media Matters for America, a liberal media watchdog, between March 23 and April 6, Fox hosts and guests lauded hydroxychloroquine almost 300 times.

Todd Starnes. Fired from Fox Radio News after one of his guests said Democrats were not Christians but worshiped Moloch. Wrote that female protesters who protested the confirmation of Kavanaugh were "screaming animals" who "should be tasered, handcuffed and dragged out of the building."

Yeah. Todd Starnes is certainly credible. :facepalm:

You're not an unintelligent individual...so why would you make such a stupid fuQing argument? Are we to believe that Kavanaugh should be forgiven because Biden is guilty? Or perhaps Biden gets a pass because Kavanaugh was not guilty? The point isn't that 2 wrongs make a right...or whatever the fuQ your inane point is...the point is that the ASSHOLE Starnes suggested that Americans exercising their constitutional right to protest should be tortured and silenced. Maybe that's OK by you but it's clearly not in line with the values that the constitution of the United States of America upholds.

Yes. Inside a courtroom is no place to "protest". Many of them were in fact dragged out. Rightfully so. They were breaking the rules...And if tasers have to be used to force compliance during a lawful detainment.....so be it.

Anyone watching that mess could clearly see it was a publicity stunt.

Yes this makes sense. Both sides are guilty of it. But I think its funny when it only shows up in the news for one side. Whatever happened to the Covington high school kids who were protesting? Don't hear much about them any more. Or the Lt Gov of VA who was accused of multiple sexual assaults. He didn't on trial in the media. He's still in office. Nothing wrong with calling out hypocrisy.

You are all over the place here, scattered. I just asked where are they now? Are they as passionate about going after Biden?

I am certainly not all over the place. I was clearly focused on challenging Starnes' credibility. Here's what you did in your reply...

Strawman Argument
It’s much easier to defeat your opponent’s argument when it’s made of straw. The Strawman argument is aptly named after a harmless, lifeless, scarecrow. In the strawman argument, someone attacks a position the opponent doesn’t really hold. Instead of contending with the actual argument, he or she attacks the equivalent of a lifeless bundle of straw, an easily defeated effigy, which the opponent never intended upon defending anyway.

The strawman argument is a cheap and easy way to make one’s position look stronger than it is. Using this fallacy, opposing views are characterized as “non-starters,” lifeless, truthless, and wholly unreliable. By comparison, one’s own position will look better for it. You can imagine how strawman arguments and ad hominem fallacies can occur together, demonizing opponents and discrediting their views.

With the strawman argument, someone attacks a position the opponent doesn’t really hold.

This fallacy can be unethical if it’s done on purpose, deliberately mischaracterizing the opponent’s position for the sake of deceiving others. But often the strawman argument is accidental, because the offender doesn’t realize the are oversimplifying a nuanced position, or misrepresenting a narrow, cautious claim as if it were broad and foolhardy.

What is a Logical Fallacy?
A logical fallacy is an error in reasoning common enough to warrant a fancy name. Knowing how to spot and identify fallacies is a priceless skill. It can save you time, money, and personal dignity. There are two major categories of logical fallacies, which in turn break down into a wide range of types of fallacies, each with their own unique ways of trying to trick you into agreement.

Just this:
female protesters who protested the confirmation of Kavanaugh were "screaming animals" who "should be tasered, handcuffed and dragged out of the building."

They (those in the courtroom) were and should have been.

Although you obviously don't like Starnes, it sounds as though you have more of an issue with his guest rather than Starnes. No matter, the mainstream media shenanigans can be found in many articles; I just picked one.
Someone wrote that Kavanaugh protesters of the female persuasion were screaming animals? Do you doubt that some protesters screamed like animals? I don't. We've all seen out-of-hand protesters who deserve being tasered and dragged away--both male and female--I don't discriminate against any person exhibiting that type of rabid behavior.

smiley17.gif Seeing as we're communicating by way of THE INTERNET, it's readily apparent to all but the dimmest of us that it would be an impossibility for me to physically assault you. Rather -- by way of the pinata metaphor -- I was (arguably) attempting to (humorously) suggest that I've gotten the better of you today with regards to our repartee. So stop being a pussy and man-up, or go find a safe space...snowflake.
