Biden Just Won The Election

Biden just won the election.

I just watched the first debate. It was a disaster for Trump. I pretty much saw the entire debate, and I haven't listened to any pundits (who can never be trusted to give an accurate review). Not only was Biden lucid, but Trump would not stop interrupting. I think Trump was trying to "be Trump", instead of trying to be natural. But he must have had a false idea of what "being Trump" is. He must have seen ownage videos of himself on the internet and thought that should be the entire debate. But he forgot that the highlights were well-timed, humorous quips like "Only Rosy O'Donnell" and "Because you'd be in jail". Unfortunately, he made none of those well-timed, humorous quips in this debate. Instead, he would not stop interrupting, and he showed himself in a bad light.

Most people who support one candidate or another can never admit if their preferred candidate lost a debate. But if your stomach drops and you silently urge in your mind, "Please, stop!", then deep down, you know the truth. And while most people are set in their ways, I believe that this debate itself could have lost Trump 2% of those who might have otherwise voted for him. At first, I thought that Biden continuing to hide and not debate would be best for the former vice president. But in fact, I don't see a way that this debate could have lost Biden voters or gained Trump voters, whereas the opposite is quite likely.

In Defense of...Cecil Rhodes?!

You all know Cecil Rhodes, right?  He was a British Imperialist (living from 1853-1902) who founded the De Beers diamond mining and trading company.  Just this morning, I came upon a post comparing him to Adolf Hitler, and claiming that Cecil Rhodes killed at least 60 million Africans.  It has been shared 99 times.  Here is the post: https://plus.google.com/+TonyJefferson/posts/CZ6HW3AxDo6 Unlike many, I decided to do some research on it.  That is my nature.  I don't accept things without evidence given, and even when no evidence is provided, I search for evidence.  If after looking, no evidence is forthcoming, then I discount the claim unless compelling evidence does surface.  After my research on this topic (taking up about an hour of my day and 28 open tabs on my browser...but still an enjoyable time because this is what I like to do), I found that my initial skepticism was well justified and that this comparison is incorrect.  Adolph H...

The Dark Side of the Women's March

The recent Women's March, which took place in Washington and numerous other cities one day after the inauguration of President Trump, may go down as the largest protest in American history. Millions showed up to these events to advocate for women's issues and to protest against Donald Trump. While very few would find fault in a women's march in and of itself, upon inspecting this women's march further, some disturbing information comes to light. The Women's March was thankfully quite peaceful, unlike Inauguration Day when the group Antifa (the "anti-fascists"), although stymied by the police, were ironically able to carry out their own mini "Kristallnacht" (or rather, "Kristalltag"), smashing windows and setting fires in broad daylight. The Women's March appears to have been non-violent and there were apparently no arrests. However, problems start to manifest themselves when we look at the people who set up and spoke at th...

The Sixth Great Mass Extinction and Human Survival

Recently, there have been numerous articles about a study showing that we are in the midst of the Earth's sixth great mass extinction.  Below are some quotes, and then I will give my thoughts. "Miami (AFP) - The world is embarking on its sixth mass extinction with animals disappearing about 100 times faster than they used to, scientists warned Friday, and humans could be among the first victims." "Not since the age of the dinosaurs ended 66 million years ago has the planet been losing species at this rapid a rate, said a study led by experts at Stanford University, Princeton University and the University of California, Berkeley." "The study "shows without any significant doubt that we are now entering the sixth great mass extinction event," said co-author Paul Ehrlich, a Stanford University professor of biology." http://news.yahoo.com/sixth-mass-extinction-us-study-210749359.html This is sad, although it's not news.  I ...
