I beg to differ with with Geraldo Rivera in his claims of Self Starters and the word homegrown as being terrorists, this must be the preparation of lingo being developed to classify the true hard working American individuals that do not need to be told what to do to make positive things happen. He mentions this twice in this video and it is VERY disturbing! This is becoming all too well accepted and Mr. Rivera's timing is all too interesting. Please see the video I recorded tonight uploaded.

You think he needs his mouth washed out with homemade soap, scrubbed with a wire brush, then whipped with a bull whip? Sounds like it. Tell you the truth at his age, he should have learned to not say things he does. He is always putting his foot in his mouth and talking out of the wrong end!

Bootstraps are weapons of mass destruction for the new age.
That’s the thing about progress; all the word means is “continued movement in the same direction.” If the direction was a bad idea to start with, or if it’s passed the point at which it still made sense, continuing to trudge blindly onward into the gathering dark may not be the best idea in the world. Break out of that mental straitjacket, and the range of possible futures broadens out immeasurably.

Amazing what this country has come too. The media has helped to change the game by using bad examples and comparing those to decent people. Unbelievable!

Good catch. I noticed this language being put into play today as well. I think it was a female on Fox News who used it earlier in the day. It appear to be carefully crafted language, cementing a negative connotation to the word self-starter, so that if a innovative and creative self-starter comes along and is described as such he will automatically be reviled, because of the association that they are trying to develop with terrorism.

Gretchen Carlson was also calling for thought crime divisions on the 22nd.

It looks like the term goes back to at least 2006-07.

"1984" was an instruction manual and a weather report.

...not fiction.
