Okay, as a journalism student I have a few things to say about Tucker Carlson.
Recently he made an editorial about how the New York Times were planning to publish his home address. They made a response to it today. In this article they basically frowned upon Carlson for even suggesting it, while simultaneously posting at the end of their article the general areas in which reports are that he lives.
No matter how much you hate the guy, you cannot deny that this NY Times article is intentionally leading people to finding out where Carlson lives by indirect means. I’m doing a media law class this semester, and this absolutely falls under what you SHOULDN’T do.
A couple years ago, antifa protestors showed up at Carlson’s house and terrorised his wife while he was at work and their four children were not at home. The protestors were heard on video threatening to throw Molotov cocktails and pipe bombs at the house. They also spray painted insults and the anarchy symbol on his house and driveway. Since then he had received death threats practically daily. It eventually got so bad they moved. Lately, people have tried to get Carlson taken off the air. He had one of the highest, if not the highest, rated news programs in America and many people in other countries watch him as well.
Think about this.

Can I ask if you're pro-life or pro-choice? I'm guessing you're pro-life but I don't want to assume.
Hi,
In general I guess you could say I’m pro life, however I completely understand in cases of rape, the health of either mother or baby is threatened or situations like that. I do believe that every child has a right to be born and have a chance at life, and I think adoption is a good option, however I know the American foster system is overrun. It’s a hard situation but I would generally say I’m pro life.

In regards to my last ask, can I ask what your opinion is on me having had an abortion?
Hi again,
Honestly it’s your life and you can do what you want. Even if I personally disagree with something, you had your reasons and I am in no position to tell you those were wrong. I don’t know you personally so I can’t say what you did was wrong if I don’t know why you did it. You might not have been financially, emotionally or physically ready for it, you might have had to do it for medical reasons, or you might have had a negative experience which led to it. I can’t tell you what you can or cannot do, or how you can think. All I can do is express my own opinions and my own values in the way I see fit.

Hi all, this is my first post in a while as this blog is very much inactive these days - due to personal reasons. However I wanted to take the time to address what’s been going on.
George Floyd’s death at the hands of Derek Chauvin, a police office trusted to protect and serve, was terrible and completely unacceptable and inexcusable. For this reason, and the unlawful deaths under police custody that have been plaguing the country for many, many years, I will say this: I stand by the peaceful protestors and those who choose to stand up to police brutality as it is a very real thing and something we should all condemn.
However, I don’t believe how the situation has been escalating will help the cause at all. Protests turning into riots, which turn into looting and burning buildings, flags, and attempting to burn police as some have done. Do not bring children to these protests, do not bring elderly, do not subject your children to violence and hate and anything you are tasked with protecting them from. Do not take your children into a situation where rubber bullets, tear gas, tasers, batons, horses and flash bangs are used for crowd dispersal. Do not take children.
Do not burn buildings, do not burn police vehicles and precincts, do not cause more harm because enough harm has been done. Not very long ago a group of protestors swarmed the streets in front of the White House, burned the guard house and the historical church nearby, as well as forcing President Trump into the bunker. This is a clear threat to the president, who had no part in George Floyd’s murder as plenty of African-American men and women have been killed under police custody and under police hands for years before President Trump was elected.
This is chaos, civil unrest and part of it is completely and totally justified - however it is getting out of hand.
The police are using sometimes completely unjustified force because one or two people in an otherwise peaceful protest decide to throw something at an officer, or yell an insult. Keep in mind the police’s job here is to disperse a crowd in which would otherwise turn more violent. The actions of some officers are not justified, however what happened in LA a few days ago where the ‘peaceful protest’ turned violent because of police presence, the police were called in because protestors were surrounding a bus and the bus driver was scared so he called the police.
There are two sides to everything. There are people protesting with peaceful intent and people protesting with violent intent. There are people who are using the chaos as an excuse to loot and get free stuff, and there are people looting as a form of protest - both are illegal, protesting is not. There are police who are following orders and police who are using their position for an abuse of power. There are police who are marching with the protestors.
Stay safe. I’ll maybe start making GTM more active in the future.

Lol I just had a fight about the blackwashing of Ariel and OP blocked me and the others that thought similar. Like, my response isn’t even showing up in the notes. My reblog. Other people’s reblogs. Lovely use of censorship right there.

How do I get connected with other conservatives on Tumblr? This app isn't very user friendly.
Hi there!
It definitely isn’t very user friendly, and makes a habit of deleting the accounts of conservatives if there’s too much activity.
I can’t really suggest much for you past searching through some conservative blogs through tags. It’s hard to network on this site, and it’s hard to find like-minded people past searching through tags and notes of posts from conservative blogs, etc. it’s even harder to reach out and get connected with people.
I wish I could really help you further. Maybe some of my followers want to reach out?
Good luck!

That recent convention where they were all like “Point of Personal privilege” and “thank you comrade” really missed an opportunity to call it ‘Commie Con’

@youngfreeradical replied to your post...
““The group was not directly involved with BLM, but it’s possible the rhetoric inspired the evil attack. I’m not entirely sure, though.”
Hey fletch I wonder if you have the awareness to say the same about trumps rhetoric and the fact that hate crimes against minorities have risen dramatically since he was elected.”
Extremism happens on both sides, so yeah I’m aware enough to say the Texas shooter was an extremely right wing radicalising Trump’s words. I’m also aware enough to know that the Ohio shooter was a radical leftist. So yeah, stuff inspires extremism on both sides, just like how ISIS is extremist Muslim views, but we don’t demonise the entire Muslim faith, now do we?
Ohio shooter backed Warren, wanted gun control and supported AntiFa.

“Self described leftist who worshipped Satan”
I’m against the BLM organisation for the same reasons I’m against AntiFa groups, both groups outwardly call for violence against white people and conservatives so I’m not about that.
Trump may say a lot of stupid shit and he definitely needs to word his tweets better, but he has never once said anything or done anything like this:

My question is why do you keep responding to me? It’s obvious we won’t agree but instead of sending in a respectful ask like most people do, you choose to reply to my posts.
Next time you want to respond to some of my views, I’d invite you to my ask box. It’s a much nicer place there, maybe we can have some civil discourse instead of what’s already been going down.

2016: Donald Trump becomes President of the United States.
2018: Scott Morrison is democratically elected prime minister of Australia
2019: Boris Johnson becomes prime minister of the United Kingdom.
And leftists everywhere cry.

Australian Federal Election
For those who don’t know, GTM is run by Australians and looks at issues primarily in Western Countries.
Which brings me here today as the Australian Federal Election is concluding overnight. Australia seems to have decided that The Liberal National Party will continue to be in office.
How does everyone react? Petitions to remove Queensland from the commonwealth as most voters were LNP voters. Breakdowns over not having a Labor government, and of course, censorship.
What I say to that?
Get over it. Move to a country that has the values you like if you don’t like Australia’s government. I’m sure Venezuela would love you.
Get a reality check and realise people actually don’t like socialism and Labor. Realise that the election process is fair and stop trying to find loopholes and stop complaining that it isn’t fair. Realise different opinions are actually a part of life and you have to live with them. Realise that you are not the majority. Your views are popular on the internet, not in real life.
Deal with real life and stop being an asshole.

UK General Election
So I haven’t really commented on the UK, or anything really lately (been too busy to keep up with this), but I'd like to say that I am happy with the landslide victory for the Tories. I’m not invested in UK politics, but I am well versed and I will say that Jeremy Corbyn scares me, and even before Boris Johnson was PM, I said that he should’ve been instead of Teresa May.

Hi, I haven't been scrolling through your blog for thatlong but I just wanted to know why you were anti BLM. Thanks!
Hi there!
I haven’t actually said why on my blog yet, but I have a few reasons.
I’m not against the statement of Black Lives Matter, I’m against the organisation. A large amount of the time, the organisation behaves like AntiFa and are quite on the violent sides of protests, and there have been instances where they deliberately make sure no white people attend their rally’s. If white people do attend, they’re pushed to the back of the crowd.
Also, a group of black youth a few years ago tortured a disable white 18 year old. He was Mentally handicapped and the incident was live-streamed. The young man was bound, beaten, taunted and had part of his scalp removed with a knife. He was forced to kiss the floor and drink toilet water all while the attackers are shouting “Fuck Trump” and “Fuck white people”. The young man was bound for hours.
The group was not directly involved with BLM, but it’s possible the rhetoric inspired the evil attack. I’m not entirely sure, though.
I’m also not sure why people saying All Lives Matter in response to BLM was a racist attack because it really wasn’t, and both statements are correct, though I’m not overly invested in this topic.
I’m basically just against the organisation, not the statement.
Hope I answered your question, but if you have any more questions then feel free to send in more asks.
