  • 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

Ah.... so this is why Bovino was tossing gas canisters into crowds yesterday.


Approx 1 minute mark.
I doubt Bovino feels the need for legal permission to use violence against protestors.

‘Triple Defeat’: Trump’s Power Grab Gets Smacked Down in Courts Across The Country—By His Own Judges

In one stinging blow, three federal judges rejected a Trump administration policy that threatened to pull federal funding from schools that didn’t comply with its ban on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs.

Trump administration drops legal appeal over anti-DEI funding threat to schools and colleges

It leaves in place a federal judge’s August decision finding that the anti-DEI effort violated the First Amendment and federal procedural rules.

A federal judge ruled Thursday that university association members may seek relief from the court if their immigration status is changed as retribution for challenging an alleged Trump administration policy to single out campus activists critical of Israel’s war in Gaza for immigration enforcement.

U.S. District Judge William Young’s order follows a trial last year where he found top Cabinet officials conspired to target noncitizens for deportation on account of their support for Palestinians and criticism of Israel.

At a hearing last week, Young said Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Secretary of State Marco Rubio operated an “unconstitutional conspiracy” to deport certain people so the university association members would be hesitant to speak out.
Good.
