  • 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.

ICE got what, $150b added to their budget? No local government needs to be expending any additional resources to help the largest, most well funded gang in the country terrorize their own citizens.
A Border Patrol agent called for help. Politics should be set aside in such situations

It's a disservice to the 6 million Jews who were slaughtered in the holocaust to make such a comparison.
Clearly you don't understand what happened during the holocaust
Yeah! They are only experiencing significant trauma unnecessarily! They aren't dying so what is happenning is good for America.

Pope should probably shut up too right?

The Pope can say whatever he wants, I'm not Catholic.
Do you agree with him on other matters? How about abortion?

Federal agents in Chicago on Monday arrested a suspected Latin Kings leader accused of offering cash bounties to capture and kill a senior immigration officer working with "Operation Midway Blitz."


The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Illinois unsealed a criminal complaint Monday charging 37-year-old Chicago resident Juan Espinoza Martinez with a single count of murder for hire. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) identified the official Martinez allegedly placed a bounty on as Commander at Large of the U.S. Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino.

This was before the holocaust. When people were being dragged out of their homes because....what was the phrase? Ah yes. They were 'das Blut des Landes vergiften'. Yeah, I think that was it.

I think you should concentrate on the reason they were dragged out of their homes. I can help with the translation if you like.

I know what you posted in German, comparing illegal immigrants to Jews is just desperate and shameful

Initially, yes.


This was after scapegoating them as the source of Germany’s problems for at least a decade.

Hmmm… sounds familiar.
Clearly not the same thing
In the months following the Wannsee Conference, the Nazi regime continued to carry out their plans for the "Final Solution." Jews were "deported"—transported by trains or trucks primarily to six camps, all located in occupied Poland: Chelmno, Treblinka, Sobibor, Belzec, Auschwitz-Birkenau, and Majdanek-Lublin.
The Nazis called these six camps "extermination camps." Most of the deportees were immediately murdered in large groups by poisonous gas. The Germans continued to murder Jews in mass shootings as well, especially in territory they seized from the Soviet Union. The killing centers were in semi-rural, isolated areas, fairly well hidden from public view. They were located near major railroad lines, allowing trains to transport hundreds of thousands of people to the killing sites.

It’s shameful to try to compare this to being deported, I guess you didn’t notice the quotation marks

I think you're mistaken. The quote equating both with poisoning the blood of the country was not mine. But I agree, doing so was shameful.

I’m not defending that quote I’m saying you and @GoldenBoy89 are making light of what happened ito the Jews by comparing it to being deported

I think you're mistaken again. The only thing I equated was the quote. It was the reason for dragging people out of their homes. The comparison went no further.

I’m not going to defend what Trump said, it’s indefensible but it doesn’t change the fact that people are being deported because they’re here illegally.
If they start putting them in camps and killing them I’ll be hiding them in my house and helping them get somewhere safe

That’s why I said they didn’t start with gas chambers. Right now we’re in the scapegoat phase. Blame a group for our problems and try to get the public to turn against them as a whole. It’ll take a bit before people are more comfortable with more drastic solutions. You can say we’re not there yet but plenty of people who’ve lived it are seeing the parallels.
