Conservatives complain that they are not getting to speak because their freedom of speech is being taken away. They say that their message isn't being heard or debated. What is that message that no one has heard of?

You ended your question with a preposition. That is the only thing I took from your post.
 
Sorry didn't mean to confuse you with big words. Lmao
 
Jeez...I hate it when conservatives prove me right. Bummer. Lmao

I think the problem for many conservatives is that for the 8 years of Obama all they had for a program was just say no. Then with Trump they shot there wad with the Tax bill, knowing that if they touched Social Security thier older base would desert them. So now they have the wall. I do think that they are staring to turn on Trump as they have voted on several issues, Syria being one and NATO another where they went against the wishes of trump. A problem that cons run into is that their base is not all but mainly old and white. If they go after many of the programs they have vented about in the past, they lose that base and they can not afford to lose that base.

12,000 strong are heading our way with more caravans forming. Just watched them loading up the migrants into semis in Mexico and it appears they are heading to the Texas border.
These tactics are used to overwhelm border patrol with the influx while the cartels at another location smuggle their contraband across the border whether it be human trafficking or drugs etc.

Anyone here ever experienced a family member addicted to opiods? It's a living Hell that often results in their death. And the sad truth of it all is the pushers are going after our youth. This is no longer an inner city problem but a suburb and rural areas as well. It's a cancer that is destroying the lives of many. So while the lawmakers in Washington sit with their fingers up their ass over discussing the immoral basis for border barriers, it will continue. And they wonder why Congress has such a low pathetic approval rating.

But conservatives have already stupid things like this......and continue each day. So what are we not hearing......since their speech has been taken from them.
 
I didn't know that conservatives have no idea of what message isn't being heard......therefore shooting their own rhetoric down. LMAO. I just didn't think they would admit it in public for all to see.

Well, insofar as you're aware of those being the messages, the assertion that something is prohibiting conservatives from communicating them must necessarily be untrue, unless, of course, you are a conservative and are availing yourself of the opportunity to express the above messages.
 
Sure that's what you did. :roll:

You know what he means. Don't be obtuse. You're always whining about "those libtards trying to silence you". My advice to the whiney wing nuts is for the poor little snowflakes to go find their safe space.

It's a damn good thing that the democrats support stronger border crossings with more men, dogs, electronic sensing devices and x-ray scanners to catch more of those opioids that are coming across the border at legal border crossings in big trucks with drugs smuggled in tin cans and plastic bananas. By the way, those in the caravan are presenting themselves at legal border crossings to claim asylum. Trump messed up the last caravan and made it even worse for the border guards by SHUTTING legal ports of entry.

So does this administration so what is your point? Let me answer that, you don't have one. Barriers are part of the whole package to secure the border. Full Stop.

Exactly. Lmao. Ask conservatives what message isn't being heard and they can't come up with anything. Lmao I often wonder if stupidity is painful?

My point is that illegal drugs aren't being carried by (OMG!) migrants from Central America on the back of their kids. Illegal drugs are a problem in the U.S. in the first place due to over-prescribing of prescription opioids. This is the root cause, doctors that are prescribing prescription narcotics like the doctor in Florida that's in prison now because he ran a 'pain clinic' and prescribed copious amounts of opioids to 'patients' who were no more than drug addicts. Florida has the highest rate in the country for doctors who are contributing to the opioid crisis by overly prescribing addictive opioids for pain management.

Check out Dr. Barry Schultz who prescribed 20,000 pills to one patient alone. He had a long line of patients waiting at his 'pain clinic' door every morning. A law enforcement task force began investigating Schultz based on a complaint from a Lake Worth pharmacy that a patient tried to fill a 30-day supply of oxycodone totaling 1,590 pills, with a dosage strength of 30 milligrams.

The opioid crisis is not 'this' and it's not 'that'. It's an extremely complex problem and putting a useless wall up isn't going to make one shred of difference in the influx of illegal drugs pouring into the country. What has Trump REALLY done to address the opioid crisis except to demand a wall? Did he set up a special commission to attack this drug epidemic and start from right here, inside the U.S. and work up from there. A drug addict isn't born a drug addict, so why are they and why aren't we looking into the 'whys' and 'hows' and find out why these people are becoming addicts. Find out why there's no education and counseling available to them. Figure out where the culprit physicians and drug manufacturers are and make them accountable. I have another news flash, the doctors work WITH the pharmaceutical companies. There's a long history that's been well documented where pharmaceutical companies pay off doctors to push their drugs. Just today, the owners of Purdue Pharmaceuticals was found to have profited more than $4 billion dollars in the past 10 years on sales of Oxycontin.

Now I realize that you people want an instant fix to the drug problem and you like to have complex situations translated to you with a few bullet-points in bold font. But this drug epidemic is NOT because of any caravan. Those are simply people seeking a better life. The drugs come right though our LEGAL, GUARDED borders in great big trucks. Or, they come in 600 yard tunnels under the ground. More than 286 of these tunnels have been found traversing the border between Mexico and the U.S. Or, they come from the air, from China where most of the Fentanyl comes then gets distributed via the U.S. Parcel Service. Or, it comes from airplanes or high speed boats since the cartels can afford to buy just about any mode of transportation they choose to use.

The drug epidemic is an extremely complicated problem and focusing all our attention, time and money on a stupid concrete wall is just delaying fixing the problem all that much more. So take a deep breath, sit back, have a coke or a beer and chill out about the caravans. They are not coming to kidnap your children, rape your wife or kill you in your sleep. They are seeking amnesty because they're dying where they come from because it's dangerous. They arrive and present themselves AT THE LEGAL BORDER CROSSING to be processed appropriately.

I get it that you people like being scared straight by Trump and you like to chant 'build that wall' in sync with others. But geeze people, take a step back and look at the whole picture here instead of peering through just one little window.

I don't mind them being obtuse. Its actually part of the entertainment. If they were serious and honest...….then the discussion would get very boring. But when you have people playing mental gymnastics right in front of you, its actually quite entertaining. At their expense, of course.

I just find it very interesting that all these right wing people(and some who even claim to be "classical" left wing, Dave Rubin, cough, cough) do not want to speak when given the chance. Its what I guessed would happen if they were given the chance and they proved me right.

I had a strong belief that their "we get silenced" and "we can't speak" BS was fake...……..now I know it is. LMAO!

You got the wrong forum. Partisan sandbox is in ther basement

Im just curious......after listening to Sargon, Dave Rubin, Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro, etc., they all complain that freedom of speech is under attack as if they are not being allowed to say the things that need to/should be said. They complain that they are being kicked off of media platforms, therefore reducing their ability to get their ideas out there...….where we should be debating these ideas, not removing them.

So, I find it extremely interesting that none of them can offer any message that's not getting heard. Which just gives me more evidence to believe that their whole "freedom of speech" agenda is a hoax.

So in your opinion, calling "conservatives" stupid is an invitation and attitude which leads to free, open and productive discussion?

Mental gymnastics on display indeed. You do know everyone you listed has been target by deplatforming campaigns yes?
