gardenhackle: Biased sources don't automatically discredit the material as even biased sources can come up with genuine facts and sometimes even rational arguments. But they demand the highest level of scrutiny because a biased source isn't interested in what's actually right. A biased source cherrypicks information that supports their bias and ignores information that opposes their bias... Bias definitely indicates that the information be gone over with a fine toothed comb and their "analysis" not accepted at face value. But it doesn't automatically mean some or all of what said "biased source" claims is false. No one is good enough to be wrong about everything.
True... there's usually some truth to be found, even in healthfood store publicatons. Such is the case of the group I used to be a member of(Center for Science in the Public Interest). As you said, intense scutiny is needed. I never accept what I read in such sources at face value, but research & glean whatever might be of value that I can.

And thanks for your support. handshake

BellaTheRebel48:

As I stated, the U.S. is STILL at it!!!


Not once did I dispute that statement. I disputed some of the misguided, ill-formed conclusions put forth as fact on this forum, as well as projecting only one side of the coin of what the U.S. is STILL AT. It happens to STILL BE AT MANY GREAT THINGS AS WELL. And of course, disagreed w/the false accusations against anyone posting a differing opinion to any of your opinions, saying they were PAID to post, as well as STUPID.
...My very 1st post again - Try reading it for once -
While I believe power abuses began almost from the start, it is no different than power anywhere.
**While this country has things to be truly ashamed of, it has far more to be proud of. (I could come up with pages upon pages of great acts, life-changing inventions, sacrifice for others here & abroad, & generosity at every level that can be attributed to this great country.) YES, ANY horrendous acts committed by some in this country, should be BROUGHT TO LIGHT & wrongs made right if possible.** (My own family has been affected by at least a couple of government experiments done without our knowledge or consent.)
But to bring these things up as if only the U.S. is ever at fault, while ignoring the enormous atrocities committed by mankind where ever there is power all over this world... all I can say is, on that note I agree with Conrad.

The U.S. was & is one of the most generous countries in the world.


AND WHY DO YOU CHOOSE TO IGNORE ADDRESSING YOUR UNWARRANTED HATEFUL BEHAVIOR DIRECTED AT ME, WHEN, WHILE I DISAGREED W/SOME OPINIONS, WAS NEVER DISRESPECTFUL TOWARD YOU OR OTHERS WHEN STATING THEM... THAT IS UNTIL YOU SHOWED YOUR BIASED, RUDE, UNCALLED-FOR STATEMENT THAT ENDED WITH THE WORDS.... "AND THAT INCLUDES YOU!"

BellaTheRebel48: I have the right to express MY opinion. You don't have to like it, you don't have to agree with it and you certainly don't have to read it!

However, I will state that you can take your suggestion to me and shove it you know where!


You have a right to express it, but according to C.S. forum rules, you do not have the right to be disrespectful to the OP or posters, whether they agree with your opinion or not. Included in that rule, is the OP not having the right to be disrespectful to posters making posts on their forum, including those they disagree with.

murny: You think that just because the government prosecutes people for illegal testing means THEY don't do it??????? THERE IS DOCUMENTATION SHOWING THEY STILL VIOLATE PEOPLE'S HEALTH IN NUMEROUS WAYS. Kind of like the war on drugs, I suppose you don't believe the US government moves drugs? You are either a) not very bright or b) paid to post here.
