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,

yes, but paul also spoke out against marriage and sex, marriage usd to be a secular event till 1100's least within Christianity. Christians got married, but you have never needed to be christian to get married, or even have anything to do with Christianity. Asians were getting married long before Christianity, so were native americans and others. CHristians have no more claim over marriage then anyone else, and no more get to decide what is or isn't marriage.

though if you want to go back to the marriage of abraham and moses we can go back to having multiple wives and purly a transactional thing, and not about love. Heck just go back to marriage a few hundred years ago.

Well the whole "marriage is about love" came about because of the French in the 1200s (if I remember my timeline correct), so of course the manly USA should abandon something that came about because of those cheese eating surrender monkeys.

If by "those people" you're referring to people who understand that westernized culture and western democracies are superior to other systems, and it's best not to water that down by importing large numbers of people who don't appreciate that, but merely want access to the economic perks that are outgrowths of the aforementioned westernized democratic and capitalistic systems.
Then yes, I'm one of "those" people.
If you're trying to suggest that I'm some sort of "alt-right" type, then no, I'm not one of those people.
If you work long and hard to throw the best cookout on the block, and I've done nothing but trash talk you and do things that run afoul of your values at almost every turn for the last year, but then I show up uninvited at your gathering because you have some tasty looking steaks going on the grill...
Would you be particularly persuaded by someone saying "Now now, it'd be rude to tell Rob to go home...after all, he's already here, and he did refill napkin dispenser, and a few of your other guests seem to be getting along with him okay...he even opened up that nice daycare/learing center in your garage"?

Regardless, some people think marriage is only between one man and one woman and don’t view same sex unions as real marriages. However, it’s irrelevant because it’s not related to the thread at hand. That’s all.
It’s off topic, if anything.

Whatever. Her lifestyle, her choice. Still off topic, regardless.

I can tell.
You are swimming in the same waters of fear that "outsiders" will change your culture and society. Have a little more faith in the things and systems you value.
I hope you are OK, because that was not comprehensible. I think you may need a reboot.

Then the focus would be on the policy, the state of the law, and management, not on the operational procedures of the agency implementing the law.

No he didn't. He was moving as he was taping. Slow motion does not take into consideration time and movement unless you actually stamp it. In the position the officer is in when the car comes at him, he is involved in movement. You know the guy isnt some sort of cat right. Unless he practices drawing while dodging, his physiological response isn't going to be the same.
Ive already addressed this. The officer was HIT by the car and in the short time it took to fire the rounds he would not have been physiologically able to assess and stop all action in that time frame.
You are acting as if he's some sort of super man with super reflexes. And every action he took and could have taken could have been recognized decided and acted upon within a second.
Its armchair quarterbacking at its finest.

You are incorrect.
Yes he was thank God, but he had no way of knowing that at the time. There was always the possibility that he could have been knocked over, or slipped on the icy street as he was hit or trying to move and then gotten run over. There are several scenarios where he could have been severely injured. He didn't have enough time to assess all the various and most likely outcomes based upon various responses from him. All he saw was a car coming at him, and he responded. And then he was hit.

Maybe when it was said back then it was the sign of things to come. Usually there is some justified concern. I would say post war was a golden age of immigration. Immigrants like the Italians, Greeks and other European nations and from Britain integrated well.
But in later times immigrants were brought in on mass from nations in conflict and they were not integrated. In most recent times this got completely out of hand due to ideological reasons. Along with slack border security.
Now we are seeing the end results. This is not nonsense. The violence in the streets is not nonsense. The many nations now reacting and tightening up immigration is not nonsense. The increased ideologically based terror is not nonsense but reality.
