• 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.

  • 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.

White men...u ok?

You say. Can I use some further words to explain my seemingly, absent logic. No absent logic be my end. Maybe a brain infusion might be required your end, to help you understand logic
So, a genuine request to resolve seeming ambiguities in your statment is greeted with a rude, personal attack. Sad, but duly noted. On reflection, it was probaly your faulty grammar, not the logic - that was consequently absent.

This thread is about the man's race not his political leanings.

Did you notice that in the op?
Still trying to figure out what this has to do with anything. Why is the left so fixated on white males?

About as rude as your post 9 with your claim of my seemingly absent logic according to you. But for better clarification. Ophiolite do read my post 37 . It is late this part of the world . Good nite

I would not be the least bit surprised to find out they were made by leftists trying to frame the right. They'll probably all get traced and caught, just like Robinson.
Yeah, that must be it. Some Alex Jones conspiracy come to fruition.

The idea of people who called in fake bomb threats being up to no good, goes way beyond Alex Jones lunacy.

Interesting: I've never thought of puzzlement and admission of ignorance to be rude. Perhaps I should have put the "seemingly" in bold. i.e it seemed to me to be lacking in logic; that was an admission on my part that I was quite probably misreading it; therefore expanding your remarks to reveal what logic you intended to display would have allowed me to engage in discussion on it. My signature contains some further remarks on that point.

Yes. No bueno. The idea that it's really leftist doing it is just straight Alex Jones.

On the matter of fascists, broadly speaking fascists are very like ducks. Certainly, the same methodology can be employed in identifying them.

There is a problem with relying in a quack to identify a duck. What if the duck is a quack, and by definition not really a duck?

It seems like there are a LOT of instances of racialized threats and calls to violence.


It was a white guy who shot him. Super white.
Why are they fighting back and against whom? They don't even know if they can be angry at a leftist about this yet.

Edit:
Here's one
“White men fight back” Protests erupt in Huntington Beach in wake of Charlie Kirk murder - BeachGrit

Other examples exist.

Are we to believe there isn't racism going on here?


Edited for clarity

As for your questions, "Why are they fighting back and against whom? They don't even know if they can be angry at a leftist about this yet.", the assassin was in a sexual relationship with a transsexual. I wasn't aware that right-leaning conservatives were into such things. In fact, it's been actual transsexuals who have been doing the highly-publicized shootings lately, and they all have spewed anti-conservative rhetoric before doing their acts of violence.

It is true that not all ducks are what they are quacked up to be, but if the suspect duck keeps ducking (and diving and dissembling and distracting) then it very well may be a genuine, web-footed, egg-laying, frantically-paddling, Daffy Duck.

What? Are you saying he can't be considered a conservative on any other issues because he broke the anti-trans rule?

Because a leftist isn't capable of making a phone call or pulling a prank.

Well there certainly be nothing rude about the thought of puzzlement and admission of ignorance. But you did not write that in your post 9. You wrote ( can you use some further words to explain your seemingly absent logic ) Perhaps by simply asking someone for more information would have received a more respectful reply than writing about my ( seemingly absent logic ) But thank you for the explanation. Ophiolite you mention your signature. Your signature being a ( recalcitrant procrastinating ape ) you be referring to that as your signature ? Well me not know if you be so . But are you an ape ? And If so. Then you be the first talking ape me do ever know : ) Wishing you a pleasant morning in your UK . Kathleen

White men are being attacked though accusations of being racist, prejudiced, bigoted, privileged, slave owners etc etc. Even by other white men. There's the if you're a white man and you're totally woke and go along with white guilt and condemn white men who aren't woke, you're still a lower subspecies, but tolerable.

It may behoove your to move away from the “it’s got to be ’the left’s fault’ somehow!” mindset.

No problem since that's not what I said.
You suggest it was leftists who called in bomb threats to HBCUs hoping to frame the right, but you’re not blaming the leftists?
Ah, I see, doubleplus goodthought, comrade!

Since the right is being blamed, it's only fair to offer an alternative possible scenario. Put another way, as childish as it sounds, if they get to blame the right, I get to blame the left (although I'm really just supposing).

Whatever helps you sleep.

I daresay a lot of white males are “the left”; so, self-interest, mayhaps?
