Republican Morals lead to basketball violence
TALKING POINT OF THE DAY/WEEK:

It is the conservative republican lack of morality and propensity towards solving problems through pre-emptive attack which is to blame for the disheartening display of violence and vulgarity at last night's sporting event in the NBA.

We are sure that citizens who view our republican collegues' propensity towards the use of violence with no accountablity unfortunately and sadly feel compelled to act in similar manner. We can only hope that the local police authorities can hold those responsible for this violence accountable - however, we must sadly point out that the House republican Congressional leadership sets a poor example of holding persons responsible for thier actions when they change House rules to allow their leadership to serve under indictment.


I came up with the above statements thinking back to how the Repukes attacked Clinton for everything - including the OJ murders and the like.

I was going to post this on daily kos, but havent figured that site out yet.

Thanks for the forum here Skinner and DU.

1. Yes, I've thought of that
Here is my cut and paste reply to an earlier thread:

The incidence of violence in sporting events MLB, NHL and NBA especially in the last few years. What societal trend would encourage this? The race haters are using such incidents to push their own agenda. I think the lowering of self-control (anti-PC) and tell-it-like-you-think-it-should-be macho, warring mentality is part of it. Anxiety and tension caused by BushCo's activities and division, being the root?
