  • 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.

She let Palestinian allied protesters know that she was staying on topic and unless they had a related question they would not be recognized.

The AG said 'order in the court.'

I'm 100% sure this isn't a double standard and would also be applied equally if a male candidate said the same thing.
A man, or a Republican.

“If you want Donald Trump to win then say that. Otherwise I’m speaking,” Say what exactly? I'm assuming those were pro-Palestinian protesters protesting the war in Gaza. Is she saying they need to shut up about their grievance or they're going to get Donald Trump elected? Because that's exactly what it sounded like.

This seems like a rehash of the good old "women with leadership skills are perceived as bossy" misogony.
She didn’t even come off as bossy. Just taking charge. That’s all.

For many insecure people, a woman taking charge looks exactly like a "bossy" woman.

Especially in the United States where we haven’t had a female President…..yet.
