| By YOUNGZERO - 02-16-2011, 03:20 AM - Boxden > BX Daily Bugle - news and headlines PROTESTS IN DOWNTOWN CHICAGO ~ NOT on the Controlled News Media ! Now, hey… Most of you know that I’m no fan of the far right or the far left for that matter… (I’m like morally on the right, culturally & foreign policy on the left, and probably financially radical… so no party represents how I feel or think… but I digress) Chicago protesters voiced concerns over bailouts and how the financial situation is being addressed. It was completely ignored by mainstream media. Anyway, although I am no fan of the far right, that a protest of this magnitude in downtown Chicago was ignored by the media is an injustice. There were some other parts of the political spectrum in there as well (since most people were never told why bailouts are viewed as necessary… most of us oppose them) ![]() Instead of ignoring the protest, engage it… address it… answer peoples’ concerns. It’s impossible to please all of the people all of the time, but at least listen to and honestly consider their concerns. If you still think your stance is correct, well, at least you reflected on it. Ignoring the concerns either depresses or radicalizes people. It certainly doesn’t win their trust. Let me just say this… Obama inherited a horrible situation. I wouldn’t want his job, because I’d never sleep at night (I’d probably be awake vomiting between prayers… the responsibility is immense… I hope he feels it. And I wish he would read and reflect on the inaugural address of Abu Bakr (the first khaleefah after the [rip] of the Prophet, alayhis-salaam)… I’ll find the translation & post it in a day or two, insha’Allah. ** Footnote: BTW – Just so you don’t think I’m some whacko that will take matters into his own hands… I said “financially radical” because I think interest is included in the usury of the Old Testament and riba mentioned in Qur’an. Interest-based economies are what I take issue with. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() SOURCE: Chicago Protests Completely Ignored By Media | DNN News | World News, Muslim Perspectives 2ND SOURCE: PROTESTS IN DOWNTOWN CHICAGO ~ NOT on the Controlled News Media ! >> Four Winds 10 - fourwinds10.com |

| the bailouts were necessary though. or else many infrastructures would collapse. the banks... the automobile industry. gone. you can't have huge companies just topple over like that, it would !! everything up. but i think the government is doing a good job running those companies right now. by the end of Obamas term, everything should be improving. GM is making better cars lol. | |

| good post, the sad thing is though, these protest werent ignored by the media, these protest have been going on for over a year now, when they first started the media did everything in it power to discredit them, gave them the nickname tea baggers, only showed the signs that some idiot made about obama being hitler and stuff, and just flat out made them look like idiots intead of actualy airing theyre cause and telling people what they are actually all about. | |
