Why not both?
Why not both?
No one is being erased.
I got a library card a few months ago and I agree that libraries are a great public service that have been around my whole life.
How does mocking a person's appearance help move the conversation in any positive direction?
You mean around the 0.002% of Americans who are victims of mass shootings per year as opposed to 0.19% of Americans who were victims of abortion per year before Roe was overturned?
Aren't people on this site supposed to be open and accepting to all proclivities? I understand you dislike him but that is an inappropriate term to use in a derogatory sense.
How about if we are discussing something we feel differently about you refrain from saying I lie or I'm showing ignorance and you explain how you feel I am missing the point? I think I have been civil with you thus far.
LGB is not a threat in it. What section and subsection? I agree with what you said prior but ending sexual orientation, gender identity and DEI does not target one group over another. Sexual orientation is straight and gay. If you chose to read it a pro or anti whatever you are, that is on you
It says absolutely nothing about removing LGB rights. It does talk about strengthening traditional family values. I defy you to find anything in it that discusses removing gay rights.
What do you mean don't follow blindly? are you talking about my knowledge of P25?
I believe in equal rights for all American citizens no matter what. When the rights of one group infringes upon the rights on another, I believe we need to have a civil discussion as equal Americans to come to a consensus that allows us all to agree.
While I have not read every word of all 920 pages I guarantee I am very familiar with the main issues discussed in all 5 sections. I certainly do not agree with all of it but overall I feel it is trying to create a guideline towards restoring morality and normalcy.
P25 is Pro-Life and that I fully support. It does not say anything at all about white supremacy, rolling back voting rights, racist laws or anti LGB matters. You state all these things are in the proposal. Please explain what parts of P25 you read made you come to this conclusion. Thanks!
DC is a federal district.
Please explain how you feel Nigel is Fascist.
Yes Governors do have approval rights. And no one has been deployed yet. What a great look to deny federal help to lower crime in your state! Also, there is almost no way to prove gerrymandering.
What elections were rigged? Are you talking about gerrymandering? It's not new. No one loves it but it's been around for generations. Also, "deploying the military against civilian"s as you call it is legal under Title 32 Section 502F.
What about Substack? Maybe I'm naive but you have a pretty big audience of both fans and haters. I think a good portion of them both would pay to hear what you have to say. I know it's not a great solution but it could be a stopgap.
This is reductive. People can be concerned about multiple issues, some more important than others. We don't believe cities are being "occupied". Every time the word "fascism" is used by those attempting to sow discontent it loses a little more of the power the true definition of the word deserves.
So only nations that align with your politics should be permitted to host sporting events?
We still do. I do not understand your point. Please elaborate.
It is wonderful that we live in a nation where freedom of expression and art are protected. Fascist nations could only wish to have the freedoms we enjoy.
It is sad that we live in a time when men enforcing the laws are not celebrated for their patriotic, selfless actions.
I agree with you that in a democratic nation violence during protests is never justified.
Please give specific examples of how we are "already there" in terms of being fascist as you state.
Please explain the connection you are making between the shameful Japanese internment centers and the ICE detainment facilities.
So what is your point? People can support a history of multiculturalism while also understanding that they need to live in a land of law and order
What exactly are you saying you're going to do if people choose to raise the flag in the area where you live?
I was going with the Google definition of police state which clearly mentions the citizens being suppressed and monitored. It says nothing about non- citizens illegally inhabiting a nation that is not theirs
And don't get me wrong. I am clearly 100% opposed to the administration, not attempting to remedy their mistakes immediately. Now I don't care about the Maryland man but that hairdresser...I feel so bad for that guy. That was awful and should have been fixed ASAP
Any massive ongoing operation is of course going to make mistakes. That doesn't excuse them and they should be remedied. However, I do not believe a statistically insignificant number of errors should have any real bearing on the overall operations goal.
Why are you choosing to be impolite? I have been attempting to have a civil conversation with you and have said nothing inflammatory while addressing you. It's pretty easy to be nice....even to people you disagree with.
I thought you were likely talking about me but I honestly didn't know for sure. Calling me a hypocrite is kinda mean man. I do not believe I have made any hypocritical statements since we have been conversing. What motivated you to insult? I hope your day is going well btw. 👍
I thought a police state is when a very strong and police force exerts control over its nations citizens. ICE Is not exerting control over any American.
Do you have a source for the statement about not having a warrant?
Once again I struggle to understand your response. Who do you feel has been hypocritical? The lady in the video? Me?
What was your goal by replying with a racist statement like that? Did you think it was funny? Were you upset with my original reply? I'm simply wondering how that statement could possibly help the conversation progress.
What about that statement he made do you find terrifying?
A singular white person comments on your shirt and you decide that it is grounds to post a prejudice stereotype grouping all "white people in 2025" together? This person was a moron but it is narrow minded of you to make that the caption to your video.
Bezos Post also has "selective coverage" that always attempt to demonize the right.
Haha you're so right about not maintaining them. 100% of white dudes with dreads I've met in my life were at Phish shows an nearly all of them looked like they actively tried to NOT properly maintain them.
whats wrong with white dreads?
God bless these brave men and women for helping return us to a nation where the law is enforced.
The more foreign institutions hate us the better we are doing.
So Congress with the majority who is in step with the president's agenda when they all share the same party and they were all duly elected is not doing its job?
Drugging an entire population for a condition that barely exists at best is of course a way to keep people docile and not considering any extreme actions.
God bless the brave men and women willing to uphold the law in the face of such horrible opposition.
God bless the men and women tasked with keeping that City safe. Godspeed to you all.
You are opposed to people who were at the protest and did not participate in anything illegal?
So we have no chance of winning the division. You think 10-7 gets us a wildcard?
I'm sorry you're facing hard times. However, I have always felt gofundme is more for the downtrodden who are willing to work with their hands doing physical labor before feeling melancholy at how systemic white collar jobs are no longer available to them.
What you call stink, we call revolutionary, nation saving, aura.
I get what you are saying and it is not some insane stance. It would just make me feel bad if someone said that because I have the same faith as the congregation I chose that must also mean I have all the other same opinions as the majority, even outside of my faith.
How is the state of emergency "fake" as you say?
While gerrymandering is no good, it exists and isn't going anywhere. The party in power is able to consolidate that power. It sucks but it is what it is. I will not scoff more at one side than the other for doing what they have both been doing for generations.
You know my point. If you're getting into interpretations of each word, we are in the weeds. I don't even agree with many Evangelical principals despite how they mostly vote with me. This is not that hard. Don't group an entire portion of the population together because they have 1 thing in common.
Once again, you are saying "they". How hard is it to type a few more words and say "the majority of them"? It's pretty easy to not stereotype.
"They are too ignorant to care." You are grouping an entire population together and can not possibly know it is the case for every single individual in that group. That is more or less the exact definition of stereotyping. I'm sure you are not happy when my side does the same thing.
How does stereotyping like this help anything?
I do not understand the point of this? Who is it for? How many Evangelicals are active on this site? Seems like you posted it more for non-Evangelicals who you know share your opinion.
If European news is opposed to our POTUS, he must be doing everything right.
Ok I disagree with all of that but I do have to admit "Pedofuehrer" is pretty funny. I hadn't heard that before. Well done.
You're advocating for the party you dislike to be banned, leaving us with one party controlling the entire government with no dissent? Huh.....I cant put my finger on it.....What does that sound similar to?
What is "under siege" to you is "restoring a city's law and order that was lost under a weak local government" to me.
And there is where we fundamentally disagree.
How do you propose we as a national society address the issue in order to eliminate it asap?
Correct. I am so happy we have a brilliant mind such as his advising our POTUS. Your response clearly implies you disagree. Would you like to discuss our different opinions of him?
I completely agree. People who entered this country illegally are an injustice to every law abiding American citizen.
Who is the "they" you are talking about?
You are posting this screenshot because you are upset that a position has changed his opinion to better himself and his career? This is not a new trend in politics.
That is a wonderful sentiment to have. Thank you for sharing it.
You can claim those terms to speak how you feel fit. I love being able to respond. I'm not planning anything. Watched him on TV leave the planet rather than take care of his wife.
If any portion of that 8 Mile human chain was blocking ICE from doing their job, the entire chain should also be arrested.
I totally agree. While I think it's pretty easy to see my political leanings, I would never wear a go Brandon or some sort of expletive Biden or any president shirt for that matter.
So New York courts decided that they didn't like Donald Trump? This is breaking and shocking news sir.
And yet the free people of this country still decided it was he who was best to lead us again. God bless America.
I understand that person is very involved with the cause, but that doesn't exactly seem like the best way to win hearts and minds
I appreciate your reply. I was not trying to be condescending when I mentioned the RoL. There is nothing lawless about trained agents finding and arresting those who entered illegally. Also until we can fix our homeland I am not concerned with the rest of the world.
I assume you are making that statement because you do? Why don't you let us know?
P25 calls for the removal of all illegal immigrants in the USA + increases in detention center capacity to 100,000. I am sorry that you feel I'm cruel and soulless for wanting to uphold the rule of law. It saddens me to hear you call me those things, but I appreciate your reply. Have a nice evening
Anyone expecting an overnight solution is a dreamer and not the type of dreamer we need to discuss when it comes to immigration reform. It's an ongoing process. If at the end of 2027 nothing has changed then I will concede to you was a failure, however I do not believe that will be the case.
That's three things off the top of my head without any research. Give me 10 minutes. I can bring up 30 more. I know you probably don't agree with any of them, but to me they are important.
Ending Israel, Iran in 12 days. Enacting policies which level the playing field for biological genders. (Which by the way, I completely support their rights to do whatever they want so long as it doesn't infringe upon others rights) Fighting to make international trade more fair.
I understand we can all have strong opinions when it comes to politics. I know it's fun to make salacious statements so I totally get where you're coming from. But to me, I support a person who has put together an administration that is diligently working to get our nation back to normalcy.
No, not presidential discomfort. To me it says way more about the person who chooses to wear it than the subject of the statement on it.
Wise words from the man that loved his wife so much he literally couldn't even stand to stay on the same planet with her a mere 4 months after she was shot in the head.
Wow! it's wild to see the shoe finally being on the other foot.
I get your point and I get why people think of him as wacky but are you saying you don't think people who have worked their way out of drug addiction should be permitted in any sort of health profession?
I don't see the difference. Aren't "flesh eating flies" and "high taxes" synonyms?
What specific parts of P25 are you referring to when you state my firm support for (most) of it makes me "Bad values Cruel And stupid."
This is my first time ever hearing of this woman. I could be wrong. But after 90 seconds of listening to her. I would be absolutely shocked if she has a husband. If I'm wrong let me know. A
That's going to be difficult for you. Polling on immigration in your country is heavily trending in the direction of a long-awaited over correction.
Holy shit! That is amazing! I forgot how much I left special teams specifically kicks and punts. Wow! I cannot wait for September 4th. Hopefully my boy Jake Elliott will have another one of his amazing years and not an off year like 2024.
I stated one dissenting opinion about signs and slogans. I stated it politely and every response afterwards has also been polite. When you are confronted with a differing opinion you choose to ignore the person and not respond? How can any society ever advance if we refuse to debate our ideas?
There is nothing in it about passing obscenity laws. There is stuff in it about the harmful effects obscenity in media has on children and families. However, that is nothing new. We have been discussing that as a culture long before I was born and we have the FCC already established as a watchdog.
Yes, it is pro-life. There are lots of people who are pro-life. I will not apologize for my opinion on this. You can call it taking away bodily autonomy of women...I can call it ending the largest legal mass murder our country has ever seen.
It does define marriage as between a man and a woman. However, there is nothing in it about repealing gay marriage or rolling back gay rights. Just so you know, I don't agree with that. This is a part that I completely disagree with. I believe marriage to be the union between any loving adults
Nothing states Christianity should be promoted over other religions. Some policies it proposes are aligned with Christianity. However, it clearly states that the govt should not establish a national religion or interfere with the free exercise of religion. -That is from the family policy section.
Also, I am not void of empathy. While I believe anyone illegal for any reason, even dreamers for that matter should have to face consequences. I also very strongly believe that legal immigration should be a much easier process than it currently is.
I understand immigration status is a misdemeanor however, I don't get help. People think there should be even one person allowed to stay in our country illegally. There are some exceptions dreamers. But this is a middle-aged woman. If she is here illegally and caught she should be removed.
