  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    Ukraine agrees to demilitarized economic zone in Donbas to advance Trump’s peace plan

    Oh, my mistake. But it doesn't really make much of a difference. Srebrenica was on a larger scale, but Milosevic was definitely perpetrating ethnic cleansing (aka genocide) in Kosovo. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_crimes_in_the_Kosovo_War...

    ICE plans $100 million ‘wartime recruitment’

    Don't be obtuse. "Value" is more than just money.

    ICE plans $100 million ‘wartime recruitment’

    Not really, as far as my point goes - the state is going to invest a lot more into catching a murderer than it is into issuing a speeding ticket despite the fact that both actions violate the law because catching a speeder has less value to society than stopping a murderer. We could get more...

    ICE plans $100 million ‘wartime recruitment’

    Try exceeding the speed limit and murdering someone and see which gets you arrested faster.

    Ukraine agrees to demilitarized economic zone in Donbas to advance Trump’s peace plan

    Even in those days, a man's word only bound himself. Hence why we created treaties.

    Ukraine agrees to demilitarized economic zone in Donbas to advance Trump’s peace plan

    Which was not a binding agreement or a clause of the treaty. It's been 36 years now - the geopolitical environment has changed, and we're long past the point of "taking advantage" of revolutions in Eastern Europe. The Soviet Union no longer exists, and therefore, there are no "Soviet security...

    ICE plans $100 million ‘wartime recruitment’

    If that were true, every law would be enforced with equal vigor and urgency. The reality is that not all laws are equally enforced, and some are not enforced at all, because we, as a society, have decided that there is little or no value in their enforcement.

    ICE plans $100 million ‘wartime recruitment’

    If the cost of increasing enforcement exceeds the value gained, then yes.

    Trump’s Deputies Freeze Child Care Payments to Minnesota amid Alleged Somali Fraud

    You don't need to know that truth in order to lie - you just need to know that what you're saying isn't true. But if you want to be pedantic, we can call him dishonest, misleading, or deceptive. I don't see how that fundamentally changes the meaning of what I said. And I don't know about you...

    Trump’s Deputies Freeze Child Care Payments to Minnesota amid Alleged Somali Fraud

    1. I have no reason to take him at his word. 2. "I did not see or hear any children" does not mean "there are no children present". I used to have to walk past a daycare multiple times a day on a daily basis. I never heard or saw any kids except when parents were dropping off/picking up. 3...

    Trump’s Deputies Freeze Child Care Payments to Minnesota amid Alleged Somali Fraud

    They were checking the truth of Shirley's claims - something for which there is a genuine community need, given the threats and harassment being reported by many daycare facilities in the area (including those not even mentioned - probably because many daycares have similar-sounding names). The...

    Trump’s Deputies Freeze Child Care Payments to Minnesota amid Alleged Somali Fraud

    Considering it's been, what, a day? I think they're doing fine. Actual investigative journalism takes time to conduct properly. Obviously, if they called it here and declared "case closed," that would be insufficient, but the point of this article was cutting off the incendiary claims made by...

    Trump’s Deputies Freeze Child Care Payments to Minnesota amid Alleged Somali Fraud

    That wasn't the claim. Supposedly, there was "no one there." Clearly, that was a lie. And if Jack Shirley lied about one place, who's to say he wasn't lying about all the others?
