Very few of the left really care. And, to be honest, some are probably eating it up. That’s how sick and f&cked up these people are.

I have them in my own family. I was going to be nice and wish my liberal cousin a Happy Birthday. On her social media profile is nothing but liberal gun control garbage sprinkled in with her posts lamenting which vegan snack she would buy today. I decided against wishing her well.

I don’t know about that...CBS is pretty far to the left and they sacked her. She’s toxic now. It’s going to be very hard for her to replace her $300,000 salary. SJW legal jobs don’t pay much. Maybe she’ll have to resort to teaching lefty law, but that isn’t going to replace her $300k. She’s dug herself a very deep hole.

You’d think with the large number of loud-mouthed, hateful lefties sacked over the past couple years for stepping WAY out of bounds on social media that she would have learned a lesson. But no, some people are totally immune to common sense and learning from others.

I’ll bet she was very surprised to learn she’d been sacked.

The money quote of social media: I think that generation no longer has any sense of decorum “in public,” as their whole lives are public.

I posted this on June 14th during Attorney General Sessions' testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee:


Sessions is learning the same lesson that Ivanka Trump learned last week - these people are not their friends, never were, and only pretended to be when they were in power and wanted something.

Trump, on Fox and Friends last week, said she was surprised by the ferocity and level of viciousness of the critics. Sessions is still calling these Democrats his "colleagues," no doubt a calculated attempt to appear to still be one of them after 35 years of service.

Democrat Senators were having none of it, turning on Sessions like he was a common criminal, especially the new Senators who didn't serve with him and were raised in a generation with no sense of decorum.

Sessions is no longer of any use to his former "friends across the aisle," and they are showing him that to his face now, instead of laughing behind his back in the cloak room.

"Hayley Geftman-Gold, the now fired CBS lawyer who was until yesterday a vice president in their strategic transactions department"

Vice president of strategic transactions??? I read no farther. This smells highly of Affirmative Action.

Has anyone checked if Hayley Geftman-Gold bought guns for Stephen Paddock or if CBS assisted with renting the hotel room for the killer?

White Liberal Elite Millionaire Stephen Paddock murdered 59 Trump supporters at a Country Music Concert...

If a Southern white conservative drove up to New York and shot up a bunch of liberals at a Guggenheim Art Museum Event would the press ‘muse’ about the possibility he was a conservatives that hated liberals?

You betcha they would...

Actually, what happened to this woman should be a lesson to all of us, including — perhaps, especially — to Freepers.

Now, none of us need feel sorry for this obnoxious woman. However, we should keep the outlines of her story in mind and consider how, generally, conservatives are much more vulnerable to being punished for our views. This chick was on a Facebook thread, posting comments among friends, almost assuredly all of whom believed as she did about issues such as Deplorables, gun control, etc. Obviously, somebody — it takes just one person - was offended enough by her comment — remember: hers was a comment, not a post — that he or she took a screenshot of it and let it loose on the internet. From there, it went around the world, and she had lost her job within 24 hours.

Freepers, BE CAREFUL when you are on Facebook. What this woman posted was vile, but it was exceptionally vile and came in response to the worst mass shooting in US history. THAT’s what it takes for a liberal to get fired for having posted something noxious on Facebook. You can bet the bar is much, much lower for conservatives. I'm not saying you shouldn't stand up for what you believe in; just be sure not to jeopardize your career for a remark you later would have deemed not worth it.

(By the way, for the many people who have posted on other websites that this woman who was fired by CBS quickly will be rewarded by other lefties with a plum job someplace else...I rather doubt that. Corporate American can be a cold, unforgiving place, and lefties often use and discard people. This woman has no known connections to the REAL elite of the left. She really, really blew up her life with this one hateful, stupid post.)

Think before you post, Freepers. The content of what this woman posted proves: they hate us...they really, truly hate us.

“She’s no better than the shooter himself. He likely had the same thoughts as he was shooting the innocent.”

Let’s not get carried away! The woman is a jerk, but she didn’t just murder 58 people and wound 500 others. Also, she’s one liberal who will really suffer for having written such stupid and awful things about people who hold different views — and suffering often teaches people compassion for others.

I disagree with posters who think she’s now going to be wrapped in a cocoon of support from other lefties. I believe they will scorn her for having been so stupid and they will leave her out in the cold. I feel sorry for this woman and I am going to say a prayer for her. She’s about to find out who her friends are, and I’m betting they are fewer in number than she had thought.

I hope that you’re right - she deserves to be working for $40K instead of $300K, if she can get a job at all. Maybe that’ll serve as a figurative slap in the face to all of these overgrown, rage-filled, children, so that they’ll THINK about their words and actions.

Nah, never mind, that won’t happen.

"I think that generation no longer has any sense of decorum “in public,” as their whole lives are public. From Facebook to Snapchat to Instagram and Twitter, they all post stuff without thinking and assume there’s no rules governing acceptable discourse.”

Probably some truth to that BUT she and her ilk probably go crazy whenever Trump puts out a tweet. So the rule is "no rules for me, many rules for thee"
