• 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. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

What the Times considers assaults could be different than ICE
How many legs does a dog have if you call its tail a leg?

4, calling it a leg doesn't make it one.

Right, an act of speech or writing is not an assault.

Spitting on someone is
It certainly could be.

Bovino testified that merely touching an agent “could be assault depending on the situation. Spitting on someone could be assault.”

Whats the go with a reverend doxing ICE agents because she believes this is spreading Christs love. What a weird way to do that. This is bad fruit.

I think it shows how far political ideology has entered the church.

Putting fear into little children is wrong and should not be brushed off as not being an assault. As I said, all the Times had to do was contact ICE if they really wanted the truth about the numbers. What the Times considers assaults could be different than ICE, they could make it clear to the readers they only consider assaults as those where a judge or jury has convicted the perpetrator. Pretty easy to do. Perhaps assaults are still over 1000% when doxxing is not included.
Oh good. Guess we can charge these officers based on all the little children who they have put fear into.
