  • 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.

A pedestrian was injured after being hit by a vehicle outside of Fremont High School during a student-led demonstration, officials said.

At one point, a few students entered the street, officials said. A student was hit by a car that stopped in front of the crowd, then began moving.

[As some of the footage shows, the driver had gotten out of the car, gets back in, and then accelerates straight forward, hitting the girl hard enough to knock her up and off her feet.]

Nebraska Rep. Mike Flood released a statement after the incident.

"This is not what we do in Nebraska - this is not ok. The video of the girl being hit by a car at the school protest is disturbing. While initial reports say that the girl was alert and talking when she was taken away, we are praying for her and her well-being. The incident needs to be fully investigated by law enforcement. It is critical that our country preserve the ability of people to safely protest," Flood said.

Yes. Grooming children to be the next Rene Good. Just teach children to stand in front of traffic and expect nothing to happen. The teachers and facilitators should be charged with reckless endangerment of a minor.

I see…the rhetoric from the left is out-of-control, so the kid who was driving had no choice but to carelessly ram into a protester?

There's easier ways to get them out of the road...no need for hitting them with a car. Just do this:

Make one polite request
Make on stern request
...if those don't work, grab them by the arm and collar and physically remove them.

That may work in the world of OZ. But in this place called "reality," this is what happens.



So to put kids in that situation is a crime, all the adults who facilitated it should be fired and charged with multiple accounts of negligence of minor.

When you're dead, it doesn't matter if the driver had the right-of-way anymore.

The driver and the drivee were both minors who made non-fatal mistakes.
I’m hopeful that both will learn from this incident.

No better way to get your point across than impeding people who have nothing to do with it

I am just shocked as to how so many liberals are commenting as if they had never been held accountable for their actions in their lives.

Not every story deserves such a reaction.
