YouTube Removes 17,000 Channels for Hate Speech | Hollywood Reporter - 16 views

  •  
    "The Google-owned company also removed 100,000 videos, a spike in takedowns since its new hate speech policy went into effect in June."
  •  
    it seems kind of stupid to me that they would do that usually they will give people a warning to take down the video that violates there rules but I guess they decided to just give up on them.
  •  
    I think that the arguments arising around Youtube, Facebook, etc. are interesting. Because, while they are private corporations with the ability to regulate their material how they please, they are also communication platforms. And being communication platforms, they have to conform to certain laws. They have to guarantee everyone a right to be seen and heard.

Alabama abortion law passed: Alabama just passed a near-total abortion ban with no exce... - 3 views

  •  
    I agree with this law and feel like it should be the same in every state. There are millions of families out there who have wanted a baby and either couldn't have one or the pregnancy didn't go through as planned. Some people would counter-argument that certain women who get pregnant or have been raped don't think they are fit to be a parent. This is where the women who struggle to have kids can get involved. There are many different options babies can go to if their mother cant take care of them. Abortion is taking a life away and in my eyes is seen as a form of murder.

Gallup: Trump job approval drops to 37% - 3 views

shared by lmakram on 20 Mar 17 - No Cached
  •  
    The approval ratings, Trump's worst since taking office two months ago, come as FBI Director James Comey is expected to tell lawmakers that there is no evidence for the President's unverified claim that former President Barack Obama wiretapped Trump Tower during the election.
  •  
    " Aside from the controversy over Trump's wiretapping claim, the latest poll numbers suggest growing dissatisfaction with his performance following the chaotic rollout of Republicans' plan to replace the Affordable Care Act and reaction to his travel ban that has faced stiff legal opposition." Trumps approval ratings are the worst that they've been the entire time he has been in office.
  •  
    I think a lot of people haven't approved of Trump ever since the beginning and he hasn't really had enough time to prove his worth so people are only continuing to disapprove of his actions.

California and President Trump are going to war with each other - 16 views

  •  
    President Trump had harsh words for one of his most fervent opponents during the pre-Super Bowl interview with Fox News's Bill O'Reilly that aired Sunday. Not President Vladimir Putin, mind you, whose alleged unpleasant habit of murdering journalists met with a shrug from the president. No, Trump lashed out at the nation's largest state, California.

    First he says that he is opposed to sanctuary cities, saying it breeds crime and goes on to say that "we have to well defend, we give tremendous amounts of money to California". But then when asked if that was his "weapon of choice" trump says, " I don't want to defend the state...If they're going to have sanctuary cities, we may have to do that." First he says this and then he says that, what IS his opinion here? Plus when he says that sanctuary cities breeds crime, but the FBI gives proof to show that it doesn't. Why can't he check his facts before he says something?
  •  
    So Trump wants to pull money from California's school, which is ridiculous it will make the US dumber than it already is, we have lost our rank in education. This war doesn't even make logical sense, taking money will never solve the problem. It will cause more.
  •  
    I think Trump sounds ignorant when he says that they breed more crime. Every city has crime and theres always going to be people that commit crimes no matter what
  •  
    Trump is stubborn, because of everything he wants to change on his terms states will start to rebel. He needs to learn to negotiate with others wants or the whole country will rebel and then it will be out of control.
  •  
    There shouldn't be a war at all, i don't really see the point of why he is going to take California's money. Maybe he should cut down some of our military money. Take money from something that is a lot more wide ranged than California.

    I think that Trump needs to do more to help the people of Houston and hopefully his visit to Texas will inspire him to do that.

North Korea nuclear test was 10 times bigger than Hiroshima blast, U.S. says - CBS News - 3 views

  •  
    this is a blast to read, at least 10 times as fun as it sounds.
  •  
    Why does North Korea think we are the ones threatening world peace and safety when they are the ones publicly saying they are ready for "Total War" and are prepared to use their nuclear weapons? Does Kim Jung Un not realize that using nuclear weapons IS a world peace/safety hazard?

Russia claims it can wipe out US Navy with single 'electronic bomb' - 15 views

  •  
    Russia has claimed it can disable the entire US Navy in one fell swoop using powerful electronic signal jamming. A news report from the country - where the media is essentially controlled by the state - said the technology could render planes, ships and missiles useless.
  • ...7 more comments...
  •  
    Russia is threatening the US with statements saying that they could destroy our navy and air force by jamming all of the signals. In my opinion Trump should take action to make sure that they don't do that because then America would be vulnerable. I'm not saying that we should attack but we should focus on defense right now.
  •  
    If so, why don't the Russians do it? And now that Russia apparently claimed what they can do, can America compete with this and maybe use the same technology on the Russians?
  •  
    How credible is this information? If it is credible what is the Government doing about the threat?
  •  
    Because Russia says they are capable of doing this. There is a possiblity of them expressing it over dramatically. If you look at the technology comparison, the United states is much farther ahead. You don't think we can do the same back at them? We probably can. Just get an EMP.
  •  
    You cant jam an M16 with an electric bomb.
  •  
    I was also reading from a few different sources that an ex-Russian official has suggested that Russia military has the ability to use underwater nukes to detonate a "tsunami bomb" off our coasts. This claim has been officially denied by the Putin govt, but interesting to consider weapons like this. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/05/01/russia-can-launch-tsunami-against-us-nuclear-bombs-buried-ocean/
  •  
    I'm not quite sure why we're so worried about alleged claims created by Russia. Not only that but the U.S. military as well as U.S. technology like Daniel said is much more advanced. If we really want to know if these allegations are true find out. Otherwise you stay living in fear over whether something is true or not. Take their threat and do something about it if it's a threat that's that high in severity.
  •  
    I wonder if Donald Trump has done anything about this, or is planning to. Russia threatening us with this is very serious and I have a feeling Trump is not doing much. Could Russia really disable all planes and missiles through an electronic signal?
  •  
    Is the government going to do anything about this issue? Or should the people have to worry about a near future war ahead?

New York terror suspect was radicalized domestically, governor says - CNN - 2 views

    This is a terrible event. I can't believe that ISIS is still believing they are doing the right thing. They are killing people in the name of their God and the way they think things shouldn't be. They are Hippocratics.

At a potential reckoning point, Trump fumbles for success - CNNPolitics - 3 views

  •  
    This is an issue that Trump is facing well I think. He says his point of view on it and supports it with facts and things he has seen.
  •  
    Trump doesn't seem to know when to stay quite and to keep his mouth shut instead of constantly going and the never ending tweeting.

Marcus Peters Sits During National Anthem of Chiefs vs. Patriots | Bleacher Report - 2 views

    Another athlete protesting during the National Anthem. I wonder if this will occur more often as the season progresses?
  • ...2 more comments...
  •  
    As long as Kaepernick is still a free agent there will be more people that are protesting.
  •  
    this seems to happens often. Then again there are also many worse things certain plays have done and have gotten away with than this.
  •  
    These players doing this bulls*** should be immediately fired. Either stand for your country and show respect towards the fallen soldiers who went to war and lost their lives for you to even think about kneeling or leave and never turn back because you don't belong here.
  •  
    And players who do heinous things like rape or rob places don't get fired. Why should someone who decides to peacefully protest be fired? Many people who do kneel/sit actually have a huge respect for our soldiers. One last thing, look up the US flag code of conduct. Plenty of things that companies do, and probably even things that YOU do, Stockton, directly violate that code.

Vigils For Atlanta Victims And Anti-Racism Protests Draw Thousands Across U.S. : NPR - 2 views

    Do you guys think he should face more charges?
  •  
    As the article says, since the pandemic started they have been getting a lot of hate because of the virus. Asians have a lot of fear to go outside and live their "normal" life before the pandemic. There have also been a lot of racist comments towards them such as "you brought the virus over here". Racism still happening is terrible and sad.

Iowa Legislature passes, Reynolds signs bill banning mask mandates in schools | News | ... - 3 views

  • ...2 more comments...
  •  
    Many students asked my view on this law.... I will simply say that I have felt grateful that 99% of my students followed my classroom policies 99% of the time with regards to seating charts, sanitizing, masks, etc. They respected my classroom all year long even if they personally disagreed with that. Now because of this new law (which is based more on partisanship than science) I am in the opposite role and I will trust and respect the choices students make in the last week of school whether or not I personally agree with their view. I know how to make changes in government when I feel a need for change. As always, if you have an opinion on this topic, I would love for you to respectfully share it here.
  •  
    I do not believe the mandate should be lifted seeing as a lot of people are un-vaccinated, susceptible to COVID, and the herd immunity process is barely beginning. There's no way that we're going to eradicate COVID if we can't do the bare minimum of wearing masks. Most people don't even wash their hands for 20 seconds,and wear their masks under their nose. If we can't wear a mask correctly, can't wash our hands, and refuse to get vaccinated, I sincerely believe we might have to deal with COVID as we do with the flu by taking yearly shots and such.
  •  
    I personally believe that the mask mandate should not have been lifted. Yes, some people are vaccinated but there are not enough people vaccinated for herd immunity to work well. I also believe that she should have just waited to lift the mask mandate. We have gone through this whole school year wearing masks and for that to change overnight is just confusing to understand. She should have just waited until schools got out for summer and then lifted it if she really wanted to.
  •  
    I think the maks mandate should have been kept for a little longer, at least until more people are vaccinated
