  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Do the current violent actions

Do the violent actions taken out on Trump supporters:

  • Make you more likely to vote for Trump

    Votes: 22 42.3%
  • Make you less likely to vote for Trump

    Votes: 4 7.7%
  • Will not affect your vote

Far more than just a couple of decades....look back to 1968 DNC....history might be repeating itself this year.

If Trump does win and he does bans Mulsim's from the US he will have radicalised a whole new lot of Islamic terrorists who target will be the US.

Something to think about.
He could not ban Muslims....there is a little thing called the Supreme Court standing in the way.....

From what i have seen of Trump that he won't let the supreme court get in his way. First president to be impeached since Clinton if he gets elected.

Curious...is there a real Democrat running for president or just Socialists and modified Socialists? and what does Socialism do to the Biblical principal of needing to work hard so that you may have something to share with others? (Democrats just take it and share it with whom they please...i.e. Planned Parenthood and other left-wing, anti-Christian activists...the largest share going to the collectors of the tax.) Scripture clearly portrays our earnings as our own while subject to taxation. Democrat policies have rapidly destroyed the moral fabric of our society in just 8 short years to the point we now are subject to law suits should we speak against homosexuality in our churches or take Christian stands on a number of moral issues and they take our money in the form of taxes to fund all kinds of depravity.
Remember Obama's comment early on...some are still hanging on to their guns and their Bibles...now that is a very telling comment bearing shades of his policies to come. He spoke against the Most High in this comment and we all should have recognized that. Let's wake up! We can no longer do a simple party-line vote!
Hebrews 5:13-14:
Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.

John F Kennedy would not be welcomed in today's Democrat party. That's how far the Liberals have fallen. Politics is in a sad state of affairs these days.

There's nothing to think about. We have guns and can shoot too. We have bigger and better bombs and our troops are better trained. No cowering allowed.

Wasn't going to vote for Trump in the first place. Most of his past words, actions, views, and policies do not align with what I as a Christian have been called to uphold and act like by God. Not to say the other candidates are worth my vote either. Hillary is just as bad. And with the way this election is going so far, I'm starting to feel like our votes (the people's votes) don't really matter since delegate support is bought and sold anyway.

Will the violent actions taken against Trump supporters affect how you will vote for President come this November and why?
There is no way I would vote for Trump, I would not be able to live with myself, especially if he got in office.

I think that is kinda the point. Don't go crazy here and listen to what I AM saying, not what it can be spun into. And I'm not trying to flame. Politics tend to be taken personally at times.

For the vast majority of reasons, liberals are hypersensitive about pretty much everything. Except, when THEY cross a line. It is perfectly acceptable for Mexican Illegal Aliens to throw eggs, punch, and smack a woman's face with a Mexican flag at a Trump rally, But, I will be labeled a racist for even daring to bring it up. They are a mob. Using scare tactics in an attempt of coercion to dissuade Trump voters. Yeah, that's tolerant. And it might not even be actual liberals that are comiting the act. The problem occurs in the support the left gives to these thugs. That, is what people like myself are sick of. I am sick of immoral acts being commited and justified by some groups hurt feelings. We need some one with a back bone who will stand up and say: " Too bad, I don't care if it offends you. I have the constitutional right! "

Our current political system has become stale and from one President to the next it has become status quo. Trump seems to be the one to shakeup this status quo. Both parties. This is the shakeup that this Country needs.

To my knowledge, you didn't make the comment - unless that person is your sock account of course. It happens. It's my constitutional right to respond to a comment just as much as it is that person's constitutional right to make the comment. And if your feelings are hurt by "immorality" - tough.

Grovelling before them hasn't worked very well for Obama, though, has it? Think about it.

I can understand your attitude, assuming you are going with the "anyone but Hillary and I'm a Liberal".
I can understand the visceral dislike of the Republican party, they are not exactly the "warm and fuzzy" party.
What you fail to understand is that there is no functional difference between the two.

If Congress doesn't wake up and start doing their job, the US is doomed. It makes little difference what flavor of idiot sits in the White House.

With the likes of Whoopie Goldburg and the little dictators on college campuses, I stand by what I said.

However, given the current GOP primary, especially Trumps arrogance racist narcissitic remarks, I throw up my hands. And half America is rooting for him, argh! It looks like it's just American rotten culture in general.

I don't think Trump is a racist. But he does say stupid things. And his dumb and dumber comments are not lost on most concervatives. I won't vote Hillary over it. Nor the Bern. Libertarian ticket maybe. In my state I could vote Donald Duck and it wouldn't matter. A Dem will win here even if while in jail!
