  • 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.

Because it's already happened to people in Chicago.ICE took America's and possible illegals out of their apartment in the middle of the night. And made them wait Americans and children wait. Until ICE was done. And I seen some of the Portland Oregon. And there was no warzone going on.
Yes this is what happens when you have and support sanctuary cities. When you allow illegals in there are bad illegals that come too. Then you have to sort them out. Which takes time during an operation like this.

People in Chicago VOTED and choose to be a sanctuary city. You have to accept the consequences of such actions.

It still makes no sense.
It makes no sense to YOU. But to some people it makes perfect sense.

Given the immensity of human experience no one person is the arbiter of ‘what makes sense’. It’s a subjective statement.

In this case its objectively nonsensical.

The President is the Head of the Government of the United States of America, not the Daddy for the States.

If he is, then that’s not how our federalist system operates, and we’re in extra-constitutional waters.

What’s “conservative” about upending the delicate balance-of-powers between the Federal Government and the several States?

We're not talking about "conservatism" anymore, we're talking about right-wing activism.
