  • 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

What do you mean by deeming it a gay/queer city? If you mean labelling it as a city where it's reasonably safe to be openly gay/queer, then I think that's already widely known. (There are other cities in the country that are also known as LGBTQ-safe spaces.)

If you mean something like rounding up all the LGBTQ people in the country and making them live in San Francisco, then, no, that's a bad idea. We don't need another Trail of Tears.

All cities, counties, municipalities, etc. should be queer-friendly. But we don’t need to go claiming cities for specific demographics. It’s a step in the direction of apartheid or reservations. Our country should be hospitable to everyone without cordoning some people off in specific areas.

Maybe that's why.
It probably has more to do with the tech industry taking over major business developments, raising the cost of living out of reach for 99% of the population so people end up priced out of their homes. If they don’t have the means to move, you find them on the streets.

I disagree "hospitable to everyone". Our open borders is a disaster and it will be the downfall of this country.

The free movement of goods and labor is essential to a strong economy of free individuals. Besides, our borders are more secure than they’ve ever been. Anyway, being hospitable to everyone is a good thing. You never know when you’re entertaining angels, after all.
