@AlishaGrauso What you say about English is true yet, so long as their are bear attacks there must be shark attacks. It just is. I think de stigmatizing the shark is best accomplished through exposure and education. The sharks need their people focused on the sharks, not the words, I think. — PolitiTweet.org

Steve Schmidt @SteveSchmidtSES

I just want to be clear about two things. If I get bit by a shark, I’m calling it a shark attack. If the shark scientist gets bit, I’m calling it a shark attack. Researchers should study sharks and not rewrite English to describe our occasional interactions with them. — PolitiTweet.org

Often the truth is brutal, hard, violent, and unsettling. People who are trying to communicate reality and others who are trying to warn about its’ dangers are constantly smeared by propagandists and liars who wear their cloaks of zealotry and fanaticism openly. How do you — PolitiTweet.org
