  • 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.

Trump Addresses the Vacuum Left by Congress Not Updating the Immigration Process

The unwillingness of Congress to address a serious update in the immigration
policies in America (which have been needed for a decade), is leaving all sorts
of room for Trump to speculate. And, for Trump to use emotionally volatile
language about immigration.

But with Trump, he not only seems to despise immigrants (as a source of crime),
but as stealers of jobs from Americans. And now, Trump is pressing the emotional button
with blacks, claiming that immigrants will be taking "black jobs" (whatever that means).

Both parties recognize that the Southern border is out of control. Trump killed a
bill that would have gone a long way to secure the Southern border, earlier this
year.

What bothers me in the Trump-Biden debate, is the continued use of false information
by Trump (see the fact-checking article about their June debate), AND the language
that Trump uses about blacks and hispanics in America.

Also, Trump's silence about the U.S. need for highly skilled immigrants, from
all sorts of countries.

Trump's language about immigration, unfortunately, still resembles the language
used by the far right white supremicist groups.
