Deranged Rhino Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 "I find it tragic that this happened and our president can’t show compassion but instead chimes in with cheap sideline advice. I expect more from him. You don’t and that’s ok." There's no should "just" offer compassion in the original statement. That would imply there was compassion offered. Instead he said the above - that there was no compassion shown in the tweet - which led off with a sentence expressing compassion for the event. But liars gonna lie. Rather than admit he's lying, he carefully changes his statement. Adding a word (he never said) and hopes he can slither away. That's the move of a troll, not an honest person. And BM IS a troll, as he was when he posted as Ben Franklin and his other monikers. He's gonna lie. He's gonna lie some more. Then he'll change the topic and hope you don't remember. ***** him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's an unrepentant asshat, nothing more. Shouldn't you be sifting through Q drops to find him mention something about salad dressing so you can say he meant French dressing and was clearly predicting this?

BeginnersMind Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 It is offputting when our president acts poorly on the national stage in a sad moment. I am a fan of much of what Trump has done, as I have said. This is not one of those times. Why do you keep running from your post about Shep Smith?

France would not exist if not for the office of the President of the United States of America. So when the man who holds that office says something to French authorities, regardless how inconsequential it is, it has weight. I'm sorry that you pucker every time he says something because you're so butt-hurt because the bad man won the presidency. Doesn't change reality. Pretty sure the United States would not exist without French support. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(they quoted French media as well, for clarity rather than offering a second source/confirmation) Normal hours have Notre Dame closing at 6:45 pm. Going by your first post in this thread about the fire (the tweet timestamp) it would appear the fire started shortly after closing (6-hour time difference from eastern). My only question would be - it is holy week; aren't churches (or at least cathedrals) open 24/7 during holy week?

Deranged Rhino Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 You know what I'm talking about. You lied with your first comment - then got called out on it and then you tried to add a word (which you didn't say) in the hopes it changed your initial lie. You do this often. Because you're dishonest. Because you're a troll. Because you're a waste of carbon. As for Shep - if you were honest you'd already know the answer. It's one I've given before. For two years that same "principle" he leaned on to cut the guy off did not apply to Shep as he pushed unfounded conspiracy theory after unfounded conspiracy theory about the president being a Russian spy. Yet he has the balls to try to take the journalistic high ground when an elected official wants to point out the fact that Parisian churches have been targeted for arson by extremists. Yeah. He's a propagandist, not a journalist. You wouldn't know because you're too dishonest to have any principles at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you even go about making sure the bells are secured in that case? Jeez. What a task. Correct, but on the other hand, assuming that it was an accident is speculation as well. The reports from the scene saying accident seem premature, but they do lend more credence to the accident angle. I think it's wrong to say "because of what has happened lately, this is intentional" but it does demand consideration for sure. Essentially, it's too early to say for sure either way.

whatdrought Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 Just now, DC Tom said: It demands consideration. It does not demand belief. Right. Both sides (accident v. intentional) begin at 0 and when evidence is displayed, you adjust accordingly. The accounts from the scene saying it was an accident would be a point towards that camp, but the validity of that can be questioned for sure. So we wait and see what happens. We tend to default to believing something to be an accident (at least the media at large does) and that can lead to other potentials not being fleshed out. I haven't been watching fox, but I wonder if they are actually evaluating it from both sides. Not that it matters too much today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
