First Amendment to the United States Constitution - Wikipedia I defend people right to freedom of religion, whilst calling out all the harm they do in the world. Which in short is your first amendment rights. Are you against the Consitition?
It's a good job the KKK didn't use massive burning symbols of your religion then isn't it..... Oh wait.... this is akward....
You know what though? I find it hard to be too angry at people who believe what mainstream media and the president of their country tells them. There is so much propaganda stating that Muslims are taking over Europe, instating Sharia law and taking all the top governmental jobs.
Back on topic, more people on both sides of the aisle (including former First Lady Laura Bush) are now directly comparing Trump's child separation at the border to Japanese-American internment during WWII. It makes me sick to even think about it. Edit: this is regarding the issue of separating children (including toddlers and babies) from their parents at the border and warehousing them in cages , not the issue of placing unaccompanied minors with sponsors.
I just heard that some flight attendants are talking about refusing to go on flights taking these kids to detention centres too.
Yeah, I am home now and not done dealing with the utter complete profound ignorance of history in this statement! Not only were racial lynchings in America often done in the name of using Christianity as a justification, but MANY other people were killed in the name of Christ. Salem Witch Trials anyone? Heck, those had a low death count compared to the European Witch trials. For quick reference I will use Wikipedia, because if you do research into other sources, you will see these statements hold up elsewhere. Oh and many of them were hanged. Organized government lynching basically. Who knows the exact numbers, but many thousands of people died and/ or were tortured in the name of Christian extremists. Witch trials in the early modern period - Wikipedia Do I need to link all the articles by Christian clergy where they think GLBT people should be put to death and cite their version of Christianity as justification? This isn't ancient history, this is going on now. If you google it, you will see lots of examples. I could cite many other examples, but that is enough to make my point. Now I want to clarify, like with Islam, the issue IMO is extremists not the mainstream religion itself. There are many peaceful loving people in these (and other) religions. And the victims of these extremists are often of the same faith. It is never fair to take a minority within a group that twist the ideology/ politics/ religion/ etc. into something else than what the original ideology/ politics/ religion was. But I wanted to dispute the completely stupid and absolutely inaccurate statement that because that couldn't be further from the truth. Sheesh
In a desperate attempt to deflect attention from traumatized little children crying in cages inside abandoned Walmarts, Trump has announced he's going to create a sixth branch of the armed forces, the "Space Force," to ensure "American dominance in space." As millenials say, I just can't even.
Kids like space, right? Hey look, a shiny thing! Still, his daughter has spoken, so we'll probably see an end to it in the not too distant future.
NPR Choice page Although trump may want this, he hasn't the power to create it, typical trump, all fanfare, no substance, just like his hairstyle.
Donald Trump to end his family separation policy – live updates And trump stops it after all the bad press! Also their is no system in place for reuniting kids already separated from their families. In any civilised country this should be the end of trump.
