“Please let the culprit be a straight white conservative Christian male. Please let the culprit be a straight white conservative Christian male.” - The American Left

I recall that there were plenty of people who said maybe we should pump the brakes on this story since parts of it aren’t adding up. Granted, those people were tarred and feathered on Jezebel and Gawker, but they certainly existed. One particular person was roundly ridiculed for daring to question the story and…

Agreed. I mean, “Jackie” is clearly a lying nutjob but precisely because she’s a lying nutjob and a college student, the entirety of the blame for this shit-show lies with Rolling Stone.

Yeah, as long as everybody’s cool with it and nobody’s being exploited I could not give less of a fuck about how many people wanna get hitched up. Not my thing personally, but whatever.

I have a very difficult time buying regular ice cream as most normal store brands have been doing this. Although a proper amount of air is important in good ice cream, they are taking it way too far.

“Do it the legal way” is not a bullshit excuse. There are 7 billion people in the world, and a good percentage of them live in places that we would consider unsafe. Are you saying we should just let any and all of them into the U.S. If they want to come? I can tell you that Canada wouldn't open their arms to 11…

For me its NOT a Conservative or Liberal issue. It amazes me how many comments make everything political. For me It’s a respect issue. Respect for our fellow citizens who died to give everyone the right to express your views. His intentions are honorable to raise concerns. His actions are not so.

You mean besides all the government funding that the NFL gets for stadiums which inflates their bottom line? Not to mention the tax dollars that go into college football which allow players like him to play, develop and get drafted? Not to mention the larger issues of, you know, having a stable government which allows…

Poor take. You can have issues with the government but still respect the country

As a college professor I can only speak from my experience and here it is: trigger warnings are used by students mainly as a way of getting out of work or for not having to read literature that they don’t want to. In legit cases (such as a veteran fresh from Afghanistan who didn’t want to watch a segment of Band of…

You can get hyper analytical, but it seems pretty clear that Bill has mistreated women for a long time and Hillary has done her best to be part of the machine that keeps him clean enough (and in the process rolling over those women) that they can accomplish their political goals in spite of his behavior.

I still think it’s shady that we gave $400m in untraceable cash to a regime that funds a lot of really really bad people...as opposed to the somewhat-bad groups we’re funding.

Anyone who subjects their child to that kind of fear is a piece of shit and/or mentally unsound. I feel horribly for her son.

How else is Gawker going to instigate a devolution into race riots in the comments?

This headline is rubbing me the wrong way - it insinuates that this is somehow on par with other senseless murders. You can’t point a gun at the cops, I mean, what the fuck.

I think his argument is that he had consensual sex with a woman and that she “changed her mind” and reported him for assault, and instead of approaching the matter “objectively,” they unfairly chose to believe the female victim and kangaroo-courted him because of said “pro-female, anti-male” bias. I.E., they only…

Explain, please, why you think it’s ok to ban folks from a legal activity because you think it’s “douchey”? I mean, with all respect, that sounds pretty darn douchey.

So is talking on the phone and holding up lines. Why not whine about those?

Except your argument isn’t based upon, well, anything. To your points:

Agreed! I don’t want to sound like an ass, but are you new here? Jezebel and Gawker are known more for promoting misinformed outrage rather than giving an accurate take on a story.
