  • 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.

Anybody besides Trump to your liking?
What makes you think I like Trump? It is funny because I was a technical theatre major in college. Maybe, I am just tired of all the drama. As a Christian, we look forward to when we will rule and reign with Jesus for 1,000 years.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, A time when there will be no more war and no more war mongers.

Why is what Pence did so objectionable if you didn’t want DJT to garner his second term?

To recap, Joe Biden is a puppet (of whom we don’t know)
Obama and his people are running the country. Joe does get around though. He can handle long flights on airforce one.
John McCain is a(n alleged) war-criminal
No question he is a war criminal. He was convicted and he did do his time for that. He is without excuse because one of his bombs went off and blew up his plane. So he has personal experience of the damage that he did to innocent women and children.

I did, but I got tired of being lied to by trump supporters. I quit or at least became neutral after 12 lies. We can really stir up a lot of trouble for ourselves in life. We have to make sure we keep our mind and our thinking under control. We have to put on the mind of Christ if we want to overcome our mind battles in life.

I read he was not @ the capital that day.
You could just read earlier posts to find that out, but it was not relevant.
The tone/attitude from MSM you'd think a heavily armed rogue army murdered a bunch of Democrats . But it was the complete opposite. They had no guns,
False. Several guns have been identified and charged. One fool reported the gun that fell out of his pants on the Capitol grounds as "missing". He's doing time for it now.

and there were only 2 people (unarmed Republican female protesters) killed.

22 years because he protested what he believed was a rigged election. 22 years for having different beliefs.

They maybe only deserved a misdemeanor disorderly conduct or just a general trespassing ticket. 22 years !!!???? Land of the free ???? Not anymore.
Tarrio got 22 years for sedition (conspiracy), conspiracy to interfere with police officers, conspiracy to obstruct a government proceeding, and the underlying crimes committed by his co-conspiritors. Tarrio couldn't have been charged with just disorderly conduct or trespassing, since he did neither personally. His crime was planning, organizing, and coordinating the crimes of others.

How many Democrats did he murder ? Zero. How many Democrats were killed on Jan 6th ? Zero. Meanwhile your party beats up and kills 2 unarmed women . RIP Babbitt and Boyland .

The party that praises people who murder babies and unarmed women.

Are you talking about Tarrio? If so, none. He wasn't charged with murder. (Do you realize there are other crimes than murder?)
Zero. How many Democrats were killed on Jan 6th ? Zero. Meanwhile your party beats up and kills 2 unarmed women .
My party? What tells you that I am a Democrat? Is it in my account profile? My signature? My "slogan"?

RIP Babbitt and Boyland , may God grant eternal Justice to their killers.
If Babbitt and Boyland were killed by anyone it wasn't a political party was it? The only two groups that could possibly be blamed were the crowd (all Trump superfans including the two women you mention) and the police (a non-partisan group). Neither was the Democrats, and certainly neither was "my party".

It the tables were turned The Proud Boys would be declared heros , patriots, and you'd make statues of them . The corrupt won't live forever. I take pleasure in knowing where they will end up

For plotting and executing an attack on the US Capitol, no, they would not be lauded. And where the Proud Boys are going to end up is Federal prison

Kind of like the story of that cop allegedly getting beaten to death by a fire hydrant. Video evidence proved that to be just another lie.

I guess God must have jammed all the guns those Trumpers planned on using . Lord, it's a miracle!!!!

"Attack" is not a term limited to only mass casualty terrorism actions. Someone who is knocked to the ground by a mugger is also "attacked".

I didn't think even Chaya Rainik could stoop that low and here you are reposting her.

Kind of like the story of that cop ...
That's why it's a good thing that trials are more rigorous than stories one hears. Evidence is produced, and a jury determines if the charges are proven beyond a reasonable doubt. As they were in the case of the Proud Boys of the OP.

That was a story that spread (including through reporters) because

A. The USCP were very tight lipped about the nature of the officer's injuries and cause of death for months
B. There were actual fire extinguishers used as weapons. Not as clubs, but thrown at officers. In at least one case a flying fire extinguisher hit several officers on the head.

The "information space" regarding those incidents was very poorly handled by the USCP. The video has indeed been analyzed to find any blows made to Officer Sicknick and no clear examples can be found. He is attacked by a chemical spray and immediately reacts. This might be related to the stroke he had later that night or not. There is one ambiguous bit of video that might show a scuffle between Officer Sicknick and a rioter, but the rioter has not been charged for anything but trespass. That rioter was actually denied bail *today* not for Jan 6th, but because he was the armed nutjob who went stalking former Pres. Obama in DC earlier this year.

I guess God must have jammed all the guns those Trumpers planned on using . Lord, it's a miracle!!!!

They got control without using their firearms, so none of them did. (There weren't a lot of firearms at the Capitol so far as we know but there weren't also "none". The cops almost certainly had more guns by a wide margin. (It would seem that most of the rioters took heed of the DC firearms laws and did not enter the District with their guns or at least did not carry them when they went to the Capitol.) The Proud Boys were told by leadership (Tarrio et all., those who are the subject of this thread) not to bring firearms. The Oath Keepers kept their guns in a stash at a hotel in Virginia "just in case".

Bottom line is it's a total double standard. Democrats can Burn, Loot and Murder and it's called a mostly peaceful protest.

The ONLY people killed on Jan 6th were 2 UNARMED WOMEN , who were protesting a rigged election. Yet the Left likes to pretend thousands of Democrats were murdered on that day.

Who has made that claim?

It's the tone/attitude from the Left.

Only 2 people died that day. They were Republicans. They were not Democrats. They were WOMEN. UNARMED.

Meanwhile the Left Riots because some black man with a long rap sheet didn't put down his weapon when told and gets shot.


I repeat. Only 2 people died on Jan 6th. 2 unarmed Republican women.
