Re: Saying "Illegal Alien" in the classroom may get you suspended
This conversation has strayed from the original question of, should a child be suspended for using the phrase "illegal alien" in a classroom? Yes, the "right wing media" as you call it does focus a lot of their attention on the issue of illegal immigration. You and I can differ in opinion on how bi...

Re: Saying "Illegal Alien" in the classroom may get you suspended
To be clear, I was responding specifically to RT saying this: the Republican Party has turned the term into a slur the same as calling Democrats communists and socialists when they are neither. All of these terms are used by that political party in bad faith to rile up a bunch of people who don’t k...

Re: Channel 7 (WXYZ) rebranding next Monday?
They are indeed rebranding to 7 News Detroit. They have a promo for a story Brad Galli is doing interviewing MSU Football Coach Johnathan Smith. The end of it has the new logo which actually looks pretty decent if you were going to try to be hard news focused. The current VO guy is still at it sadly...

Re: Saying "Illegal Alien" in the classroom may get you suspended
THE LEFT is trying to change the definition of a LOT of words and phrases. "Illegal" and "alien" are just two, but "woman" is another one. "it was a racist term in 2024" only applies to THE LEFT. Society has not made that change yet, and may never. THE LEFT (tm) isn’t a thing… whatever you mean to ...

Re: Saying "Illegal Alien" in the classroom may get you suspended
What we are saying is that...it has been weaponized and turned into a slur by Republicans and used to scare the living daylights out of their supporters... Do you have any evidence to support this assertion? See the use of criminal illegal aliens all over right wing media. They aren’t being matter ...

Re: Saying "Illegal Alien" in the classroom may get you suspended
All undocumented people ARE illegal aliens, by definition. If you don't like the language, take that up with the federal government, not me. As an aside, the list of people you call names from cunts to pieces of garbage to pieces of shit is much, much longer than 1 person. What we are saying is tha...

Re: Saying "Illegal Alien" in the classroom may get you suspended
The federal system considered people 3/5ths of a person too. And by your standard since it isn’t in the code anymore that means it’s NOT OK. Actually, I was wrong. It is only the Library of Congress that has stopped using the term. Interesting nobody corrected me on that point. You, instead, ran wi...

Re: Name, Image, and Likenesser got a v
Are the Biden’s still begging from Burisma? They called him “MBNA Joe” back in the 90s for doing the bidding of the big credit card companies, all incorporated in Delaware. Oh yeah, IIRC Hunter Biden got an executive type job at MBNA right out of school and flubbed that one. President Obama famous ...

Re: Weather reporting
Another dud weather report from channel 2, 4 7 and 62 to make it sound like it’s the apocalypse. Just a regular normal storm that dumped rain and has left in 30 mins. There is damage in quite a few towns with Ferndale and Washington both shown on all of the stations with roofing town off buildings....

Re: Democrats take back control of the house
there should never be ties, either add a 111th member, or have the Lt. Governor break ties like they can in the state senate. Therein lies the issue with this legal gerrymandering law. It focuses more on being fair to the political parties at the expense of actually representing the citizens in the...
