i feel like psych would be the guy pushing kids out of the way to get to the front of the line

As I said earlier, her tone was disrespectful. She was in full "gotcha" mode, which I don't think is appropriate for her age - whether 10 or 18 - the setting, nor for the individual she was addressing. Given the #WokeGotcha climate out there, I'm sure she got lots of positive reinforcement for being a brat. That doesn't make it right.RainbowsandUnicorns wrote: ↑Wed Jan 19, 2022 9:56 amI can and will be respectful with my response.JKLivin wrote: ↑Wed Jan 19, 2022 9:39 amIt doesn't matter how old she is.

I am NOT defending psych - but she's supposedly not 10.
Meanwhile, I don't feel she's "immature" as a supposed 18 year old.
I'm wondering why psych would think I would/should.
I agree it doesn't matter how old she is but it seems you made a point of assuming she was a 10 year old child and your commenting in regards to it - I found to be interesting.
Regardless, I'm still a bit confused as to why you feel she was disrespectful. You did mention he is (was) a Navy Seal, a disabled veteran, and a U.S. Congressman, but as I basically said in my reply, I feel that doesn't mean he isn't (nor should be) immune from criticism and being questioned - which you took/take as being "disrespectful".
I very well could be wrong but she didn't seem to be embarrassed.
I don't know what she took away (learned) from her "experience" (interaction with him) but I have a feeling it was mostly if not completely positive - and not negative.

i’m glad piling on a child makes psych feel like such a man. so superior
such a joke
It was a hypothetical.
2) i thought you were convinced her folks put her up to it?
If she is ten, then I think they did. If the reports that she is actually 18 are correct, then I'd be more inclined to think she came up with it on her own.
3) i would have zero qualms about a child of mine calling out an elected official for their statements. those official work for us, and thus should answer to us…or did you conveniently forget that part?
There are appropriate ways to "call out" those in authority over us. This was not one of them, especially not for a child. Even as an adult, I would not speak to any elected official that way.
4) who us supposed to be the mature adult in that exchange?
We agree there. As I have said, I don't think Crenshaw responded appropriately, and he deserves criticism for it.

I thought that was horrible and said so at the time. Not a good example for his kids or anyone else’s.Mjl wrote: ↑Wed Jan 19, 2022 10:57 amNow do the guy who said "Let's go Brandon" to Biden on a completely non-partisan phone callJKLivin wrote: ↑Wed Jan 19, 2022 9:39 amIt doesn't matter how old she is.

Republicans know that if more people vote they will be out of power. They are doing everything to ensure that minorities and young people don’t vote.
As a proud KU alum, I like to think of what Sara Robinson would have made of this young woman's (if she's 18) question. As the wife of an elected official, a governor, I'd think she would have understood that asking questions of those seeking electoral office is expected.KUTradition wrote: ↑Wed Jan 19, 2022 6:55 am lol…a 10 year old is immature? go figure
