  • 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.

Wait...I keep getting told there was no fraud

We need to throw out Texas electoral votes, right?

That was the remedy that Trump's lawyers kept putting forward with alleged impropriety in other states.

We need a full Congressional investigation.

We live in the mountains here, very very rural area, and my husband had to get his license renewed before the election and all the DMV's are closed here, but he was able to renew online and they sent him his new license in the mail...

His ID (not a drivers license as he is unable to drive) was expired and needed a new photograph.

I think the greater concerns about this election dealt more with new lax procedures and processes brought forward because the left was claiming voter suppression of minorities (as if minorities don't have ID), and COVID concerns.

Let's reset:

Can we agree that every American citizen should be able to vote?

That would fix the complete chaos in America...
Let the WHOLE truth out (whatever it is) be clear to everyone.

Then there's no reasonable whining...

As it is the complete denial to investigate any claims of fraud even though there is proof that there was some is what is driving the riots.

Denial to investigate? Nobody's blocking an investigation.

Exhibit B: Hunter's 3 laptops





The example is about how many times Benghazi was investigated without uncovering what the Right still thinks should be there. The Trump administration hasn't done anything about Hunter Biden's "laptops."

And you think that people are rioting for no reason whatsoever then?

That's the whole reason they have been demonstrating and rioting.
Trump couldn't get a judge to hear the evidence or conduct a hearing. Every case was thrown out before it could be heard.

That's the whole reason behind them.

No, the reason there is rioting is that people like you believe baseless crap like that.

You see - no matter how many investigations are done by Congress, you will never be satisfied in this environment where some TV entertainer's information is treated as evidence.

Oh there's definitely evidence of wrongdoing on Hillary's part... between her personal server and the people's server there was plenty.
They didn't do anything about it...but she definitely was caught red handed.

People are rioting because they've been lied to that the election was stolen.

If they think they "couldn't get a judge to hear the evidence", then they've been misled, as the judges have seen the evidence and found it entirely unconvincing, including Trump appointed judges.

Congress has abdicated they authority for decades...since WWII and SCOTUS decisions then. They should have impeached the court then. (I'm drawing a blank as to the decision they made under duress then)

We wouldn't have near the problems with the courts vs legislative branch crossing up duties. And the government might actually work as intended.

As it is we got chaos.

The article in the OP of this thread shows a completely different narrative than you just pontificated.

Yeah, it shows illegal election activities carried out by a Republican--you see, when there is actual election fraud it is investigated. and the perpetrator brought to justice.
