Facts, Opinions or Lies

[Old Man Jingles]

@rickyb and I have been going back and forth on whether most if not all posts here in Current Events are Opinions, quite a few are Lies and a very few are Facts.

Lets play a game and and use the Lucky Charm Icons to vote on every post made in this thread.

Up Thumb means you think the post is a Fact.

Optimistic (Rainbow) means you think it is an Opinion.

Down Thumb means you think it is a Lie.

The feminist movement has probably done more damage to the culture of this country than any other radical movement in modern history.

This is obviously an Opinion

I think the decriminalization of "recreational cannabis" is basically making a lot of our youth and young adults docile, complacent, and unable to function in society.

This is an opinion

OP, that's only in the immoral Urban holes called Big Cities.
Suburban & Rural America still has a strong American morality and family structures.

This is obviously an Opinion!

And even if she gets tested, then it will still be an opinion because 'how much testosterone' is OK is an Opinion

A new study found marijuana legalization leads to more problematic use

The lead researcher says her study isn’t meant to advocate against marijuana legalization, but inform it.

www.vox.com

A new study suggests that marijuana legalization leads to more cannabis use and perhaps addiction, particularly among adults 26 and older — highlighting a public health downside to a policy change that now 11 states and Washington, DC, have adopted and several others are considering.

All in all, an Opinion

but from a strongly believable source.
