They need to keep records on how they got their information and from who, and who was involved in making the decision to publish it.<br /><br />We should go after the lawyers and judiciary too. If they are going to impose civilian disarmament, they should personally be liable for anyone hurt or killed as a result.<br /><br />In the real world though, blaming the media for mass murderers is is no different from blaming guns. Neither will solve the problem - which is, namely, young men that have not been raised right. These young men are mostly raised by single mothers, and were raised by women with no male role models to work with. Letting queers and trannies go after our kids isn't going to help either....Glen Filthiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03256741311142364722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-10283338084880907232022-07-06T11:11:51.763-04:002022-07-06T11:11:51.763-04:00Heh !!!Heh !!!Matthew Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15779512563348051103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-55172927766112522762022-07-06T11:10:08.150-04:002022-07-06T11:10:08.150-04:00Purchasing restrictions:

No one needs presses that can distribute thousands of lies per minute.<br />A total ban on all foreign press imports.<br />All news stories must be composed on typewriters that require loading a single sheet of paper at a time.<br />All journalists must undergo a background check, psychological examination, and apply for a license, which may take six months to a year to be granted. They must further carry libel liability insurance of at least $1M, and undergo a training course supervised by non-journalists, to make sure they can report the news accurately and safely, with minimum qualification scores required. This license must be renewed every three to five years, at a gradually increasing price, on top of administration costs.<br />A ten-day cooling-off period before any news story is published. This includes weather, sports, and traffic.<br />Severe limits on any news that does not serve a sporting purpose.<br />No one can report anywhere outside their home or office. Journalism openly in public to be severely restricted.<br />Anyone reporting while intoxicated/under the influence gets an additional five year mandatory criminal penalty applied to any libel judgement.<br />Anyone who allows a child to report or read news, except supervised sporting events, gets one year in state prison.<br /><br />That's just for openers.Aesophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07834464741531503378noreply@blogger.com
