Oh man....... That guy is a C***
Right, so maybe you shouldn't just believe the first thing you read in an email chain, blog post, or clickbaity article from a sketchy site without doing some research, okay? Your M.O. in this and the prejudice thread seems to be to throw out a bunch of random questions designed to generate controversy when you could have easily verified the correct answer yourself with a couple of minutes of research via Google. I don't know if it's intentional or not, but either way, it could be solved by being a little more skeptical and less easily swayed, and by doing some research before you post.

The intention was to have a discussion on what people think about prejudice, and discuss said examples. Yes I did look into the link I posed in my OP, and it turns up in a number of places. I'm not 100% sold on the events being exactly as written, but I could believe someone could have acted in such a manner. It's not beyond the possibility of happening..

It's almost like people don't even KNOW that there are a bunch of sites actually DEVOTED to fact-checking internet stories!

Let me sing you the song of my people:
"Snopes, Politifact, Factcheck.org,
Rationalwiki and The Credible Hulk,
Skeptical Raptor, (he's not a Borg,)
use sites like these, and you won't have to sulk!"
 
Got my absentee ballot a few days ago, just haven't taken the time to fill it out yet. Love that I don't need to worry about going to my polling place, though it's slightly embarrassing given my polling place is within walking distance. :p
 
Early voting starts October 21st (Friday), here in Kentucky. We'll go down to the county clerks office on Monday.
 
It starts next monday the 24th here. Looking forward to voting for a lot of good candidates down the ballot but this will be the first time I skip the President's box.

I'll vote for Clinton. She is immensely qualified. As far as the scandals go, the GOP has gotten zero to stick to her in twenty-plus years. So, either they're incredibly incompetent or there's nothing really there.

For anyone willing to set their preconceived notions aside...

I am watching the debate now and Oh man...... If I were a USA voter it would be Hilary all the way. Trump sounds a bit unhinged.

on the FBI

"The FBI is rigged"

Anything that doesn't agree with himself is rigged. Unbelievable.
 
When the maid wouldn't give him an extra cookie when he was a little boy, Donald said she was biased and her opinion rigged.
 
I did enjoy the audible laughter at that point.

Not so much the "Such a nasty woman" line, though.

Or that he can't even say he'll concede if he doesn't win the vote.

I think he's pathologically incapable of acknowledging his imperfections.

I am expecting a huge tantrum if he loses the election result.
