  • 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.

This is the United States, not Maoist China or Pol Pot's Cambodia. People are entitled to an actual state with the rule of law.
Then why did so many turn up to riot on Jan 6?

He says if Trump loses in 2024 it will be the last election decided by ballots instead of bullets.

Threatening revolution if Trump doesn't get his way is not a very persuasive platform.

I guess we'll just have to declare martial law, activate the National Guard, arrest all domestic terrorists, and take back our country for good.
Sadly, he may well be right that this will be our last election. I have stated as much in two threads recently ( not having to do with Trump winning or losing. One is your own thread here Kindergarten Cops? the other is Sarah Palin says a civil war is possible where Sarah Palin basically likewise warns that civil war is quite possbile at some point soon as I believe that we are likely far too divided for peace to remain much longer. This does not mean that I do not hope and pray that I am wrong nor that I want war no one with common sense does, but that at this point we are so divided that we will not be able to stand much longer peacefully at this rate.

Honestly, I believe all this civil war talk is just hype and it’s coming almost entirely from one side. People in this country are not so divided but the differences are exaggerated via social media and biased news/opinion outlets. It is politically advantageous to to perpetuate the myth of a massive divide.

Many people are surrounded at all hours by media whos business model is to addict them to getting wound up. Its a drug.

That link just gives the headline. Where is the actual source of the story? You may not get context from a headline

Who decides who the domestic terrorists are? Is it people who burn things down and attack federal buildings?

Was it really "so many"?

Or was it a few hundred unarmed rednecks and one dude in a buffalo hat?


Chaz/Chop and the Occupy Movement presented greater disruptions than the Jan 6th riots.


I get it...Jan 6th is a stain on our country and something highlighting the "lows" of where our country's partisanship has sunken to. But by the same token, can we stop pretending "it's the worst thing that's happened since 9/11"?

Do you have this from a source that doesn’t require down loading an app?

From another Source:

In a segment over the weekend on his Trinity Broadcast Network series, the former Arkansas governor suggested the four sets of criminal charges Trump is facing is an attempt to keep him from office, comparing the tactics to those used in "Third World dictatorships."

He is correct, the tactics are similar

Here is his direct quote.

Here's the problem, If these tactics end up working to keep Trump from winning or even running in 2024, it is going to be the last American election that will be decided by ballots rather than bullets."

He said it on his television show and all the stories I’ve seen don’t tell you much more than that and their opinions

When third-world dictators do it it’s bad because it’s only about “keeping the opposition out of power”.

When the USA does it, if it keeps certain people out of power, well, don’t do the crimes, then, huh?

There are more and more believing that part of the issue is keeping the opposition from running.

People believe a lot of things that are nonsense.
