We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.
Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.
A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.
Why are yall downvoting this? Some guy got shot in the head and is recovering. Is there a reason?
Would you be asking this question if you posted about a lefty getting shot? Probably not. But I think people are downvoting it because of the community it was posted in.
Thoughts and prayers.
Honestly, Im just frustrated. Almost everything here gets downvoted for no good reason, even feelgood shit like this. I probably shouldnt have said anything, but it irks me.
Also thoughts and prayers? I'm agnostic.
For no good reason
You have to stop and think that most of the downvotes come from people whose lives are directly impacted by the right-wing’s insanity. This “feel good” shit doesn’t make me feel good. It makes me think one less preacher trying to take my rights away is a good thing. I’m certainly not celebrating it, but it’s a bit of a relief when someone vocal on the right gets some of their medicine.
Maybe you should try to understand things from the other point of view. Like, a woman who has to carry her brain dead fetus to term because it’s illegal to get an abortion—because of the right wing. The list goes on and on.
Perhaps the right isn’t right.
A person getting shot in the head isn't a feel good story.
And people use the voting system like a disagree/agree button. Most people disagree with conservative politics, so the moment this shows up when sorting by new, it get's downvoted.
Yeah, you're right about that.
