Trump: Punish Women For Abortions
MSNBC pre-taped the Donald Trump portion of tonight’s town hall. In it, Chris Matthews pressed Trump on his stance on abortion. Trump said the laws should be changed and then we’ll have to look at how we’d punish women for having abortions. Ana Kasparian, Sam Schacher (Pop Trigger), and Kenny Hamilton, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"Donald Trump sparked a firestorm on Wednesday when he said women should be punished for getting illegal abortions.
“There has to be some form of punishment,” the GOP presidential front-runner told MSNBC's Chris Matthews during a combative interview.
Matthews had asked Trump whether he would seek to ban abortion and how he would enforce such a policy.
“The answer is that there has to be some form of punishment,” Trump said in the interview taped for a town hall forum airing later Wednesday.
Asked what a ban on abortion would entail, Trump said: “Well you know you’ll go back to a position like they had, where people will perhaps go to illegal places, but you have to ban it.””*

Dating website offers to pair Canadians, Americans fleeing a Trump presidency

A new dating website is offering to pair Americans with Canadian singles to save them from a Donald Trump presidency.
Maple Match promises love and a U.S. escape plan if Trump becomes commander-in-chief.
The website promises to "make dating great again," parodying the presumptive Republican presidential nominee's slogan.
"It's easy to say, 'This is just about Americans trying to find a way to get residency in Canada," CEO Joe Goldman said in an interview. "I think ... many Americans may be frustrated by the community that they're in or the dating pool they've had access to.
"Why not seek something different? Why not seek something Canadian?"
The Texas-based Goldman acknowledges that American have cried "We're moving to Canada" before, but he says Trump's divisive policy proposals -- like building a wall along the Mexican border and creating a national database of Muslims -- make the call of the north all the more real.
"The idealization of Canada by Americans has happened for a long time," he said. "I guess Americans might be excited about the potential of meeting someone who likes hockey and doesn't mind a little maple syrup in their pancakes."
While the dating service has yet to launch, its waitlist has already attracted over 4,200 sign-ups -- 70% of them Canadian, according to Goldman.
The site is more about love than a Canadian passport, he insists. He says the matching algorithm will pair people based on compatibility and mutual interest -- even if that interest is a fear of Trump.
"We often get asked if Maple Match is something like a joke or a hoax," he says. "Frankly, Donald Trump is a joke. Finding someone and meeting them and finding a place where you can be happy is real."
Goldman hatched the idea for the site while watching primary election returns on Super Tuesday. As the former reality TV star swept up five state wins, Goldman searched for an alternative.
He wasn't alone. According to Google trends, searches for "how to move to Canada" spiked 350% in the hours after the results came in, according to a tweet by Google data editor Simon Richards.
That day, CNN dispatched a crew to Cape Breton after a local website pitching the Nova Scotian island as a Trump-free paradise attracted more than 300,000 hits in two weeks.
Since going live this week, Goldman says the page has received over 36,000 views.
"We thought it might really be a good idea to started this before another wall gets built," Goldman said.

I never said NA, I said the Americas. Get with the program Wally. If you don't believe me then read 1491:
Still, utter crap. There is no proof the population was ever as high as you or they claim. 110 M would leave a lot more behind if they ever existed.I never said NA, I said the Americas. Get with the program Wally. If you don't believe me then read 1491:
I know it is hard for you to believe anything but the whitefied version of history, but if there is any crap around, it is what fills your head, ya miserable old fart.
Somebody wrote a book about it so it must be true. And now its been published on the internet making it doubly true.
How about a consensus by archaeologists? The latest archaeological studies (the last 10 years) confirms it. What is BS is what we learned in school. There were more people and more advanced civilizations in the Americas than in Europe at that time.

Ethnologists are of two opinions. One group says that the number of Indians in what is now the continental United States was around 30 million in 1600. Another says the number was about six million. This is called the "high count/low count" debate in ethnological circles.
Either way, the 1920 census listed 400,000 Indians in the United States.
Approximately 300 languages were wiped out by Manifest Destiny. That's just one data point, not the whole argument.
And you should probably read the definition of genocide. Here's a hint: it does not mean "killing a lot of people."
I'd be interested in knowing who came up with that figure and by what means! I think that figure is at the high end, perhaps closer to 10 million is more realistic.
