• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Not scared. Watch the world for its humourous attempt at being smart. Foolish mortals.
It's to bad you are both unserious and unfunny.

What's to be serious about. We are the least worthy species on the planet.. the only one unable to play by nature's rules for atheists or God's for the rest..

this is a serious topic. If you can't be serious, then perhaps you should leave.

He’s doing his best. The TL;DR is he’s not a fan of atheists or people who aren’t Christian enough.

Serious? We as humans reap what we sow. This political insanity will be the end of you all as a nation of any merit. This is not democracy in action. This is civil war.

In social media posts and websites, Boelter said he had extensive experience as a security professional with "training by both private security firms and by people in the U.S. Military."

NPR found little evidence to support Boelter's account. He appears to have worked most of his career in the food service industry and one long-time friend described parts of Boelter's narrative about his life as "fantasy."

On the website for a company called Praetorian Guard Security Services, LLC, Boelter described himself as part of the "leadership team."

NPR found no record of the firm having clients or providing any services. A call to the company's phone number connected to what appears to be a private phone line, not a business. The address listed in incorporation papers appeared to be that of a law firm specializing in divorce litigation.

Boelter himself appears to have no history working in law enforcement, the military or private security.

"He was always kind of into the military stuff, but it was just, we were always like that. Me and him, we would play army men," [his buddy] Carlson said.

According to Carlson, Boelter did hope to open a security firm and purchased police-style automobiles to eventually use for the business, but the project never came to fruition.

I'll reword it. "People are not considered mentally ill, if the patient suspects that they are ".
The world is an asylum, full of and run by people who think they are the sane ones.
Still not true.

It seems Mike Lee has his Halloween costume now. He is such a clear example that "Libertarians" aren't an ally of your freedom, more the opposite. He's also been willing to pass forward any negative info about those he tags as "marxists" or "leftists" or "socialist". I would be disappointed if I'd ever put any faith or hope in him.
