    The far left wants to destroy society to rebuild it...The far right wants to segregate society and go back to class warfare.
    Now show us all your abilities to prognosticate what the center wants.,..

    By Any Means Necessary is no joke.

    Once progressivism and collectivism can be enforced by law, the history of the hypocrisy and evil used to get it there can be erased.

    Why should we care? Even Muslims don’t seem to care.
    Besides, I’ve heard in those camps Muslims are forced to drink alcohol. Geez, man, how can I sneak in there?

    The center doesn't exist. It is bipolar now. Undecideds exist, and I would assume they want to live in a safe country with more money in their pocket.

    Not exactly the center wants to have conciliation.

    Liberals are inherently weak. They can't go it alone. They have to have someone to blame and a safety net to protect them. They can't live in a world where people are free to make good or bad choices and live with the consequences. Where people are free prosper or perish based on their own industriousness and abilities. Cutting down giants doesn't make you taller, but it sure makes them feel better. Destruction and hubris is their game.

    In fact, on the face of it, I don't approve. However it's difficult to get clear understanding of what's been going on in a country like China. We all understand that there is Islamic terrorism throughout the world and how we handle it in the democracies may be quite different than they do in more closed societies.

    Yes, he did say all Muslims but then backed off and named specific countries which tended to terrorism.. That was posted earlier.

    Building a wall would help prevent that. Are those 'squalid conditions' you mention in Baltimore, LA, San Francisco and Chicago? Perhaps Americans should start looking after their own citizens.

    Do you have the names of these Christian white nationalist terrorists? Were they reported as being faithful Christians or is that a guess?

    here is one

    "South Carolina Lutheran Pastor: Dylann Roof Was Church Member, His Family Prays For Victims"

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/06/19/dylann-roof-religion-church-lutheran_n_7623990.html

    ""He was on the roll of our congregation," Rev. Tony Metze of St. Paul's Lutheran Church, told The Huffington Post."

    just face it, there are good and bad in every group... including Christians

    look at the kkk, lighting up the Christian cross to show their faith to everyone

    However we can still be critical.

    What do you think of the Christian response?

    "At Morris Brown A.M.E. Church here, blacks, whites, Christians and Jews gathered to proclaim that a racist gunman would not divide a community already tested by the fatal police shooting in April of an unarmed African-American, Walter Scott".

    Do you sincerely believe that all Muslims are terrorists? It may not be that easy.

    think it was good of them, just like Muslims helping after 911

    always good to see one religion help another - good people

    like I said, good and bad in all groups.....

    "Muslim 9/11 first responded speaks out"



    and this

    "Muslim groups raise thousands for Pittsburgh synagogue shooting victims"

    Whether I support Trump or not he will do as he pleases...First off I don't support American companies having China produce their goods, and the same goes for the Trump family...It is nothing but a debasing effect for more profit and the demise of the American worker's income to live the American dream...Damn those businesses and damn the Trump family..

    Yes, before we condemn these people we should ask whether religion was the sole reason behind their acts or, as in the case of Roof, racial hatreds. If Roof was shouting out 'God Is Great' while murdering these good people then the case would be more easily made.

    Clearly there are many good Muslims in the world, the greatest majority in fact, but they are often good people despite the teachings of Islam.

    you mean like Bush putting religious quotes on memo's for the Iraq war and using jesus rifles

    the fact is, many middle easterners hate the west for political reasons too... but use their God to help them win in their eyes, same as our leaders

    many white nationalists thought they had a God given right to own slaves to justify slavery, the kkk is a Christian group

    there are good and bad in all groups, you may think all Christians are saints, but if that were true, priests woudl not be molesting little children, most are good, some are not, same with Muslims

    but were getting way off topic
