Prager H2: Your gender is now determined by how you feel. A young man wins a $75K judgment in Maine because wasn’t allowed to use the girls bathroom, even he thinks of himself as a girl…. Charles Barkley has made comments critical of the Ferguson rioters. Now he’s getting slammed by the Left…
Prager H1: A grand jury in New York exonerated the police officer who applied a fatal chokehold to Eric Garner, black a man selling loose cigarettes on the street. The video is hard to watch. But is the video the whole story? The grand jury spent weeks going through all the evidence. Nevertheless, cries of racism immediately ensued following the non-indictment even though the grand jury was racially integrated… Can be there racism without racists? Can you have baseball without players?… Is the Left so naïve to believe that there won’t be sexual tension when men and women are together on a nuclear submarine? The answer is yes.
Prager H3: What is the biggest problem facing black America. Is it whites? Is it police? Or are there issues that black America itself must deal with?… Victoria Williamson, lecturer and researcher in music psychology who holds academic posts in the UK and Switzerland. You Are the Music: How Music Reveals What it Means to be Human… Russia finances anti-fracking protests in Romania… More slaughter of Christians in Kenya.
Prager H2: A major new study reveals what has long been known – women are complex, especially in the sexual arena. So what are men to do? And what are women to do?
Prager H1: There’s a new campus rape scandal. This one is at the University of Virginia. But now, after all fraternities on the campus have been shut down, real questions are being raised about the veracity of the story. Is this another Duke lacrosse case?
Prager H3: It’s not hard to understand why someone might be an atheist. But why would you militantly advocate for an utterly meaningless life and universe?
Prager H2: Charles Barkley, former NBA star and now a commentator, supports the Ferguson Grand Jury, specifically, and police in general… Why does the black community have leaders? No other community does… Minnesota high school sports is set go genderless; that is, if you feel like a girl and you’re a boy, you can play on the girl’s team.
Prager H1: An atheist group is putting up billboards across the South… A white man is beaten to death with hammers by two black thugs. But the police have already concluded it’s not a racially-based crime… Many on the Left are calling for a national dialogue on race. This is laughable. The moment you disagree with the Left on anything you’re a racist, a bigot, a homophobe and so on.
