And Gifford was that woman whose office was wrecked following the health care vote. Also, she had a crosshair painted on her forehead on Sarah Palin's homepage. And then there were the local, conservative radio hosts ... So yeah, call for violence came from the right.

[quote who="Dr Guy" reply="10" id="2858886"]Quoting MasonM, reply 8True factual journalism has been replaced by opinion reporting. It's a disgrace, and even Fox News is guilty of it as well. I don't think there are any major news outlets left who stick to factual journalism these days. I agree 100% that any decent journalist should ask questions and check facts before accepting any statement as being true, and at the same time they should report it when statements are proven to be

What makes it so funny is most of them are the ones so dead set against profiling (which is using prejudice to spot bad guys). Yet they do it daily and for stupid reasons.

Oh god, how dare Obama make a vacation on Christmas. I think the bush-fuss was more about the amount of time bush spent away from work. Let's see a top 5 of vacationers in chief: W.Bush 2001 - 69 days Reagan 1981 - 42 days H.W.Bush 1989 - 40 days Obama 2009 - 26 days Clinton 1993 - 21 days Happy Christmas (or X-mas or festival of light or whatever you call it nowadays)!
so, it basically is standard procedure and either the repo men didn't wait the thirty days, the owner didn't react to the letter, or - most likely - the high-speed foreclosure signers didn't bother checking for details ...

TRUCKEE, Calif. — When Mimi Ash arrived at her mountain chalet here for a weekend ski trip, she discovered that someone had broken into the home and changed the locks. When she finally got into the house, it was empty. All of her possessions were gone: furniture, her son’s ski medals, winter clothes and family photos. Also missing was a wooden box, its top inscribed with the words “Together Forever,” that contained the ashes of her
[quote who="Daiwa" reply="17" id="2852078"]To answer your question: None to you - if you're not a member of the family in question. Finding such statistics from studies would be a tad difficult, if they could be conducted at all. They would necessarily start with the assumption that parent-child incest is acceptable until & unless 'harm' is proven. Then you have the issue of defining what constitutes harm. And to be valid, the subjects of the study could not k
[quote who="lulapilgrim" reply="23" id="2852336"]Likewise, lulapilgrim basically argues that parent-child incest is wrong because it is wrong, without attacking me personally, however (Thanks btw.). That again is a personal opinion and not a valid argument (in absence of hard data it's perfectly fine to speculate). No, that incest is objectively wrong and for that reason causes harm is not a personal opinion. It's valid because every person has a hardwired sense of right and w

Yeah, journalists should be skeptical of any official statements. I totally agree. And viewers/readers should be skeptical of official statements, too, especially if journalists repeat them without checking. Fact-checking is important but, sadly, time consuming. Which is why we need competent, responsible and unbiased journalists to do the fact-checking for us. Journalists you can trust. Journalists that aren't under the yoke of special interests. But

Maybe as far as actual laws, there is no crime, but there is much harm done.

[quote who="Dr Guy" reply="27" id="2849177"] kenyian Kenyan. And you are partly right (your Australia analogy). But then if someone asked me where East Slobovia was or something else I was clueless on - at best I would give a "no comment", but I sure as hell would not open my mouth and prove what an idiot I was!

well, i suppose the state could choose to ignore the wishes of the people involved and start arresting and interrogating them to get at the truth. however, if it's indeed consensual and they started humping at the right time ... no crime. or a victimless crime, in case someone digs out some law to nail them. besides, getting dragged out in the open is terrible enough in a country without privacy protection laws.
wincest is only cool in pron fantasies and dog breeding. in the human case, the social consensus matches the biological one. however, if they don't breed, no harm is done. still doesn't seem right.
