Lots of us care what Rory thinks. That's why his posts have been generating discussions and support for the past 22 years.
Thank you.

Appreciate your first point.1. I condemn the act of political violence that took his life.
2. He engaged in bad-faith arguments all the time.
Appreciate your first point.
Can you please give an example of your second point?
Speaking of bad faith arguments.Appreciate your first point.

I do not want to watch the footage of his assassination.See the thread title and watch the footage.
Then, do a Google search and watch his other debates.
Noted that you make claims and can’t back them up.

In addition, you can’t hold your own claims against a single question so you cover up by claiming its “sealioning” and “bad faith questioning.”
Was I talking to you? Are you Rory’s alt or just cock sucker? Chill down.Hey.
Just checking in on ya.
You're doin swell! You have the OP on the ropes!
Now go for the kill!
Ask him again to provide you a link.
THERE'S NO WAY he nor anyone else can find that for you to give you the context to the month old story so that you can keep up and understand what everyone else knows.

Again. Second time. I know you don’t answer questions.Whoa, whoa, whoa. I'm not starting anything. I'm trying to help you here.
For the record, I've never ever had a conversation with him.
I'm just sayin Rory has not posted in hours. Obviously, he's in his crypt rejuvenating off the blood he drew off Saint Ann to torment the board again tomorrow. That's what the RW's here would have you believe, right?
And why are you trampling on my 1a rights anyway? You've really hurt my fweelins and given me a sad.
My work schedule at this unnamed nuclear thermodynamics goat milking hospital is such that I am up late at nights. As such, I have lots of free time that I volunteer my voice to those not here in the wee night hours. So, if you close your eyes real tight and imagine, my words will be almost an exact word for word answer to what that member would have said to you.Again. Second time. I know you don’t answer questions.

Weird place you work.My work schedule at this unnamed nuclear thermodynamics goat milking hospital is such that I am up late at nights. As such, I have lots of free time that I volunteer my voice to those not able here in the wee night hours. So, if you close your eyes real tight and imagine, my words will be almost an exact word for word answer to what that member would have said to you.
Ask Rory a question. Go ahead. I will get the answer right, trust me.
I answer relevant questions. I am not a deflecting trumper who occupies PB space. That's the sea lioning tactic that you were earlier accused of doing. What I believe you misunderstood from my thread, and it continued on in this one, is that many, if not all, of the left leaning members who post here are very knowledgeable on politics. As such, it is frustrating to have to hold the hand of someone here through to the current news cycle. It is not necessary for you to actually see the Kirk murder without having to know what his last words were about. An easy google search or reading of the event could easily catch one up. THAT is what frustrated Rory as it also frustrated me that you gave such a vanilla answer for the reasons the government is shutdown that it indicates to many here that you really have no idea at all at what the issues are that are at play. Again, you may take this as me insulting you, but I am again, for some reason, being very, very kind to you.Weird place you work.
Are you going to answer the question with an answer?
Maybe not come into the PB “frustrated.” Asking questions is how people learn, talk, and grow as human beings. I have demonstrated very few times being a smart ass or rude. So why would I “sea lion?” I don’t. I ask questions. When I receive, “It’s true and if you can’t support MY claim that I made- you’re a stupid Trumper,” that just makes me not want to ask questions.I answer relevant questions.

I personally do have a particular distaste for those who, in the age of trump, care to occupy some middle ground space. Now is not the time for such dumbassery. If that continues to be you, then you should get used to receiving my ire as well as those from those on the other side who think bipartisanship is weakness.
Now, do you care to continue to get an answer to your question?
“I believe it’s time to exercise the federalization of Washington, DC. Bring in the troops, cut out the crime. Federalize Washington, DC. President Trump has the power to do it. He has exercising home rule over the nation’s capital. Make DC the safest city in America. Bring in the marines. Call in the Insurrection Act. Make the crime go to zero. Use it as an example… How can we call ourselves a superpower when our great capital is a dangerous dump? Beijing isn’t like this. Tokyo’s not like this, but DC is, and it’s because we’re choosing. It’s time to federalize DC, roll in the tanks, bring in the military. Federalize the town, and bring teenage crime to zero.”- Charlie Kirk
I don't have any answers to soothe your feelings between LW and RW. I do know that the onus is always placed at the feet of the LW to reach out to moderates and RW's. I am not a politician and those attempts bore me. I will give you the answer to 2+2 always and it will be correct whether I whisper it in your ear or scream it at you with expletives - it is still all the same. If you, as a moderate, care for coddling then that means you are subjecting yourself to be open to lies and misinformation because the speaker is stroking your bruised ego. This is the PB board, not a trump rally.Maybe not come into the PB “frustrated.” Asking questions is how people learn, talk, and grow as human beings.

I have asked questions to RW and LW. I get more times LW telling me that I’m stupid than RW. I actually cannot think of a single time a RW did it to me.
Moderates can influence the elections, each year. If LW don’t want to communicate nicely their views but RW do, that’s not going to end best for the LW.
Would I like an answer to my question? Yeah.
Thank you. I was just asking for one example, by the OP, but I appreciate you giving one.@AnomalyLady
Perhaps one might be this:
I don't find this to be a man of reason or an argument in good faith when it tramples on the separation of governance between national, state, and local levels. Sure, DC is under Fed control as a unique city without representation in the US legal structure. Kirk would be ecstatic over rolling into Portland, Chicago, LA, or any other city with these exact words. That's not American by anyone's standards except for those who would trample on the freedoms of others for their own self-satisfaction.
It's one example. As was mentioned, you only had to Google it to find one.
Words, words, words. Not an answer though. @dmallord gave me one though, you can thank him.I don't have any answers to soothe your feelings between LW and RW.

I see your edit. Thank you.@AnomalyLady

Kirk's Debates is a short article about one religious news source's feelings about how he targeted his audience.
I love, LOVE DMallord!Words, words, words. Not an answer though. @dmallord gave me one though, you can thank him.
