Paterson, N.J., Gets Muslim Police Chief and Islamic Call to Prayer Over Loudspeaker

[christiefan915]

I doubt it. In this case, you decried the information based on someone else's opinion of the source, rather than noting that Mr. Lefty and myself had already provided independent verification. Doubtless you were hastening to ingratiate yourself with your Queen and failed to perform due diligence before you embarrassed yourself.

pjmedia.com falls under the theory that even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in awhile.

People like me actually read hyperlinks. You might try it sometime.

People like me don't allow confirmation bias to cause me to pounce upon the first source whose content seems to align with a point I'm trying to make. You might try that sometime.

If you had, you'd have found out that UT put the program on hold in 2018, according to NPR



"Posters went up around campus showing different ways of expressing masculinity. Each of the “Expanding MasculinUT” posters featured students sharing their own definitions. One poster had a male nurse, while others featured people from the LGBTQ community. In one, a young man was wearing nail polish; in another, the student talked about wearing a dress."



Gee, that looks...so mentally healthy.

Quit trying to prove your loyalty to your Queen. Your antics remind me of the old Spike cartoons, with you playing the part of Chester.




You're smarter than her, and better than this. Wake up.

I feel the same way about some leftist sources. The difference is that I check around before I post. If you'd done that, you have noticed that Mr. Lefty and I had already verified the story as true.

Maybe your nose was too far up your Queen's tushy to read the thread before you fell on your face.

Grow up. Be better.

I showed you six examples of pjmedia's false and unproven articles. Would you care to prove them wrong?

None of those articles is relevant to the topic of this thread. The story reported by OP's source as cited was true.

If I were to check the Soros-financed "fact-checkers" you place such blind trust in, who knows what else I might uncover?

As it is, I uncovered this tidbit in 2 minutes flat:

"In 2019, Poynter used various "fake news" databases (including those curated by the Annenberg Public Policy Center, Merrimack College, PolitiFact, and Snopes) to compile a list of over 515 news websites that it labeled "unreliable." Poynter called on advertisers to "blacklist" the sites on the list.

The list included conservative news websites such as the Washington Examiner, The Washington Free Beacon, and The Daily Signal.

After backlash, Poynter retracted the list, citing "weaknesses in the methodology." Poynter issued a statement saying "We regret that we failed to ensure that the data was rigorous before publication, and apologize for the confusion and agitation caused by its publication."

Trust, but verify.

I'm disappointed in you.

I doubt if this is entirely true, given your source. If it turns out that you're not once again promoting bigotry, then the prayer thing is clearly a violation of church and state. The ACLU will be all over this like Trump on a cheeseburger if the city goes through with it.

PJmedia's a crock of shit, no doubt about it. News like that always takes little truths and turns them into boogiemen lies. Hey, I just described the devil as often described biblically. I wonder how these Republicans perusing these sites enjoy being a supporter of the devil's antics of deceit. I'd be ashamed if I fell in line with that crap on the left.

[Charoite]

That seems to be a more credible source. It's confusing. So these mosques don't have the means to broadcast their calls to prayer, so the city is going to let them use the city's broadcast system?

I don't think this passes the constitutional smell test. Let them buy their own loudspeakers, bells, etc. If the city allows one religion to use the city's equipment, then they have to do it for all.

PS -- I bet that constant racket lowers property values.

Is it really that much different than all the crazy church bells making the call to mass? If you didn't allow this I can see complaints of noise pollution over many Christian churches being fair game. Looks like it's just being used by sewer sources for another boogieman story.

What is it with you people and your weird analyses of whom I respond to and why? You're better than Toxic and Life is Golden yet you're going along with their flaky suppositions about why I talk to Owl.
You don't do this with other posters. Stop hatin'.

[Bigdog]

Yup..its part of American history!

Sadly, fringe, jew hating white supremacists have turned it into a symbol of monarchy and socialist rule.

"You people"?

I haven't spoken to Topsy in months, nor LIG.

If I didn't know how much potential you have, I wouldn't waste my time with you. I don't "hate" your Queen, I told you that you're smarter than she is. If you think that's a bad thing...

Indeed. That's why I don't understand why anyone would want to display it on JPP. To each their own, I suppose.

Can it be? This poster almost fully makes sense. Not 100%. But ALMOST.

I think I am in the Twilight Zone.

They were relevant to pjmedia's veracity or lack thereof. Furthermore, how does it differ from you dragging bogeyman George Soros into the discussion? The article I used as proof came right from the school in question, and I can post similar proofs from the other five links.
You just did what I did and you don't see it. You trashed Soros and the Poynter Institute because you don't like the IFCN fact-checkers. Tsk tsk, so depressing.

I disagree with your opinion of Owl's intelligence, no matter what you think about her. Personally I believe 90% of the righties here are blooming idiots, but I can recognize intelligence in the other 10%, and it doesn't take anything away from me to admit it.

It seems that intelligent people on the right are rare. No clue why. I've had rational debates with them and they even managed to get me to see their point of views.

You were bound to say that.
