Muslim Counter-Protest Strategy: Kindness Conquers Hate And Fear (Video)
October 16, 2015
So, another dope clip from AJ+ shows up in my Facebook feed: This time about a one-woman Anti-Muslim protest outside a mosque in Ohio. Police were on hand, and it could have gone badly but… well, I won’t spoil the clip. However, what I will do is embed The Young Turks commentary on the clip above. Sure, they have a boldly liberal slant on almost all things; but I always admire the way they come with a combination level-headed delivery and passion in their interpretation. Same here. The original clip, which I’m betting you will love, appears after the jump. But TYT head honcho Cenk and analyst Ana above… They will make you think. Good stuff!
One of the anti-Muslim rallies that happened in the country didn’t have the best turnout. A protest in Ohio only attracted one demonstrator. She was greeted by Muslim protestors who wanted to educate her on their religion. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian (The Point) hosts of The Young Turks discuss.

Mobile Showers Show Compassion For The Homeless And Common Sense (Video)
October 14, 2015
I ran across a great AJ+ mini-documentary shared in my Facebook stream and went hunting for embed code on YouTube to post here. Found it… after running across this The Young Turks commentary on it. See TYTs Ana Kasparian and Ben Mankiewicz talking about how Bathrooms On Wheels this applied common sense can help meet a need AND restore human dignity; and calling San Francisco’s (California, USA) government and people on their bullsh!t along the way.
See the full AJ+ video after the jump.

Japanese Television Show Features A “Handjob Competition” (Video)
September 15, 2015
Another crazy Japanese game show has come to light featuring women who give hand jobs to men to see who can be jerked off the fastest.
– The Point with Ana Kasparian
Wait WHAT??? Yeah, this is real. Maybe get one-way plane tickets to Japan, huh? So, what about this story is the craziest… that there is such a competition, that this is NOT the only such competition, or maybe Mélia Mills’ VERY in-depth analysis of how some may have a ‘competitive advantage’ in the ummm race. Wowww.
You’ve gotta watch.

Current TV: Jon Stewart Crushes Bill O’Reilly In Political Debate (Video)
October 11, 2012
Cenk Uygur (host of The Young Turks on Current TV) covers the Bill O’Reilly – Jon Stewart face-off last Saturday night. The “Rumble In The Air-Conditioned Auditorium” was not the first time the two men have debated, but this time discussion was long enough to be called a debate. With lots of humor woven in, the two made points in their signature spirited (but not mean-spirited) manner. Cenk, in the video above, recaps the event held at a university in Washington, DC.
