POLITICAL THREAD

[Dionysus444]

This. The Republican Christian Taliban is out of control.
Be nice if they would actually focus on something that actually makes a positive difference in people's lives for a change instead of all this gay, trans BS that only impacts a tiny fraction of the population.

Both sides of the political spectrum have their pet issues with this. It's sadly more motivating to appeal to emotion than drone on about policy. Politics is about getting elected, and culture wars are much more galvanizing than budget minutia. Another reason I support Ranked Choice Voting and less involvement with two parties. When candidates stand on their own you're voting on your view of their stances on the issues and their character, not the stances and history you associate them with because of the R or D next to their name.

As soon as Christ or christian values are allowed to be taught in schools then you can talk. Unitl that happens. Sit down and shut up.

YOu and those like you, only want your opinions and ideas to be allowed. YOu want all other ideas and beliefs eliminated and censored. You are a walking double standard because you do not possess a honest bone in your body.

There are private schools for teaching that. PUBLIC schools are for everyone....not just Christians.
What law says Christ can't be discussed in schools, kids can't say a prayer, meet before school for FCA or attend church after school???
Ever heard of a little something called separation of church and state in our Constitution??

 

[sambowieshin]

Full on complete lie. Told by a liar that lies in every post.

So says the dude defending laws that prohibit freedom of speech.

 

[mdlUK.1]

BS. Even in middle school I had to discuss with kids why calling another kid "gay" or saying "that's so gay" is not appropriate. The topic comes up some times and has to be addressed.
Telling kids you can't even use the word gay just reinforces how terrible "gay" is and gives them more of an excuse to bully others who are. It's such a bad thing it can't even be said.
Guess what kids will be saying left and right in school now that teachers can be sued for saying???? Guess who will be even more of a target for harassment???
Republicans don't ever think thru the ramifications of their BS laws that ruin the quality of individual lives. Assholes.

So YOU want to ban the word, gay?

The bad thing is that even a massive red wave in November of this year won't fix the gas price problem. We're headed for $10/gal before Biden leaves office.

If Pubs get house and senate they can pass stuff that Biden vetoes and force Dems to vote to not override. Maybe get some of them in trouble for next election cycle.

High gas prices are never going to be popular.

 

[sambowieshin]

I doubt you would be ok with a christian group being allowed to come into schools and teach Christ. But are upset the word gay is not to be used.

Comparing christian to muslims is just another of your complete lies and disgusting opinions that are nowhere near true and or based on truth.

You are a LIAR. That is all you are.

We already have that. It's called Fellowship of Christian Athletes and Pray around the Flag Pole. It's done weekly in the morning before school. Nobody is passing laws to stop that.
There are no laws saying you can't discuss Christ or Christianity at school during a social studies class discussion.
In fact there is a whole unit devoted to learning about different religions of the world including Christianity in the curriculum.
There are NO Gay Classes at my school or any I know of.

Public schools do teach about religions from a scholastic perspective.

Maybe she thinks she'll be in Prison. One can dream right?

Definitely not “running” but would accept a draft.

 

[sambowieshin]

Less than half the prison population is in for violent crimes. If we weren’t spending countless man hours on the drug war and filling the prisons we already have with nonviolent offenders cops would have all those hours to pursue violent criminals and more than enough space to put them.

It does seem that violent offenders are released early sometime due to overcrowding issues. I agree, get the drug offenders into treatment and maybe home incarceration for the non violent offenders. Save the prisons for the truly violent.

YouTube just censored it. Hurry.

Now on Rumble after YouTube deleted

 

[cat_chaser]

By prohibiting any mention of "gay" to kids you are, by default, telling them that their parents are terrible people. So terrible you can't even discuss who they are or why they might be different than some of the other parents on a field trip or visiting the classroom. Don't think a third grader of gay parents hasn't heard this law mentioned in their home.
The line between Christian and Muslim Taliban gets more blurry every day for us infidels.

Sure thing, Mr. moderate. Funny how you’re on wrong side of independents on every single issue. Every one.

And I’d be remiss not to correct my earlier post and can’t believe I made the mistake I did. Not only is my wife, brother, FIL, MIL, and uncle teachers, but my mother was a teacher for 38 years and a retired superintendent, God rest her soul. And they all have more common sense in their pinky nail than you have in your entire body.

Hey Dums, look in the mirror and realize...... "You're an idiot!" You losers crack me up.. Please don't change......

Quit passing laws telling people what they can and can't talk about.
It's communist as hell. China and Putin do that same sh**.

You do understand Florida's law applies to K-3rd grade?

A state has every right to pass laws telling teachers what they can or can not teach in a public school. The state must agree to and approve what is taught. Imagine a school system without such standards.

The overwhelming majority in Florida want their K-3rd grade kids to be educated in the basic reading, writing and arithmetic. There is no place for teaching or even discussing transgender, homosexuality or lesbians to 5,6,7 or 8 year old kids. If a kid has a problem with their two mommies or daddies, the school will provide counseling for that. An elementary school teacher has no business demonstrating to children how to masturbate as 5.6.7 year olds. Nature will take care of that.

 

[cat_chaser]

These f’n sickos think it’s their duty to talk to kids about sex. I don’t understand it. I catch someone talking to my kids/nieces/nephews imma have a problem. Just like 70% of the population would have a problem with it.

Do they do this with straight kids and families too? Imagine a 5 year old kid walking in on mommy daddy time, then going to school and describing it to a teacher? I mean, do y’all expect the teacher to say, “come here little Johnny and let me explain the birds and the bees to you”? If you did that and I was the parent I’d have big problem. Keep that stuff where it belongs

And quit gaslighting with the ‘can’t say gay’ horse crap. Talk about stoking flames and causing division. Libs are f’n pros at it.

Oh just stop trying to double down. Just take the L and move on.

You know if I am a teacher and Sammy second grader comes up to me and asks me about the birds and the bees, it's not my responsibility to tell him about it. I am there to teach math, English, history, or you name it, but birds and the bees are not part of curriculum at that age. I would gladly tell Sammy to speak to his parents about that subject, and in no way is that by default telling him his parents are terrible people.

Good Lord man find that common sense. Not everything needs to be handled by government or authority. Some things need to be handled in the home.

Parents who discuss sexuality with 5 year olds are abusing them and are terrible people.

 

[LowCountryCat]

It also opens the school districts to lawsuits over anything being discussed “in a manner that is not age appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students.” Which in legalese could basically be anything a disgruntled parent wants it to be.

Good. Schools should not be discussing sex in the classroom to freaking FIVE YEAR OLDS.

I guess you're one of those filthy groomers too. You should hope we never meet in person.

Here is a novel idea ...

Get rid of government school. However, too many "parents" do not want to lose their free baby sitter.

Parents of all backgrounds should take responsibility for their own actions and raise their children...not pass it off to a sitter.

Note ... i did not fing say all parents. Some ppl value their children. I believe ... if they truly valued their children, they would not leave it up to our "efficient" govt to raise THEIR kids.

Question for you really "smart" people...

If the new definition of vaccine adds "stimulates antibody production", what would you consider the actual flu?

Is it a "vaccine" too?

Executive order, huh. Yeah, just fork the people who were elected to handle monetary concerns for the country. Just make it so.

Social media is not free speech you damn lunatics. You are still free to walk out of your trailer and scream you conspiracy bullshit to your neighbors because that is free speech. Social media is a business and they get to decide who their customers are. That's called capitalism. Pretty much the only time I see any tweets is in this board so I give no ****s about it.

Article is behind a pay wall so I didn't read it. But, is that the 757 he owned (and maybe still does) up until he was elected? I seem to recall reading an article back in '16 or '17 that that plane had a complete overhaul including the engines (top of the line Rolls I believe). Maybe he sold it and/or just doesn't use it very often now...but odd to have engine failure on an engine that is not very old.

Everyone can't afford to pay for school and transportation to/from school. Most public schools do a good job every day. Throwing out the baby with the bath water because of a few crappy schools in big cities that contain students that would be kicked out of your private schools within one week.

 

[WayneDougan]

Just so you know... around 4.5% of people are gay. Of gay couples, roughly 8% of gay men are raising kids. For gay women, it's around 20%.

So all you "what about my two mommies people?". my math states that only about 1.4% of kids in elementary school could possibly be in that situation. Once again, the gay agenda is pushing a bunch of nonsense that isn't even relevant.

You are very confused. PRIVATE companies deciding not to allow their platforms to spread lies and create riots is capitalism not communism.
Are you saying the government should take over private companies and force them to allow anyone to say anything they want using their platform?? That's Russian state tv.
If you get kicked out of a private business for not following the rules that is how capitalism and democratic rule of law works.
If you wanna spread lies and advocate for riots at the Capitol or bombing Russia with US planes disguised as Chinese jets.....go create your own crazy azz Twatter company and say crazy azz stuff on your own dime comrade. It's called capitalism.

Okay, so you guys gonna keep b1tching about someone teaching age appropriate material to small kids? You guys cant have it both ways.

Everyone cant "afford" it. Then maybe they should stop f##$ing so much. Just an idea. Maybe if they got a 2nd job then they would not have so much procreation time. I did it. (Admittedly, i wasnt against government schools until the past few years.)

Yep. Any gay people being able to adopt kids is one too many but whatevs.

They dominate so much of the national discussion despite being such an insignificant portion of the public. Trans do not even make up half a percent. NOT EVEN A HALF PERCENT yet it gets pushed constantly.

The entire LGBTXYZ is an up-down narrative; not an organic one. Media floods you with it in entertainment and political news. Because of this, the public thinks 25-50% of the country is gay which is utterly insane and shows you the power of media.

We have so many important things going on from a mere survival of government tyranny forming into a global new world order that assless chaps-wearing Chauncy being gay and him feeling comfortable about it is not a top priority for me.

If a leftist teacher can't have a dildo on their desk and talk to your kid about BLM and changing their gender, they think they're being oppressed.

I agree on one point.... the government isnt the answer but it's the one interjecting itself into a situation that is such a miniscule daily issue it's ridiculous.
It's the message that gay is so horrible you can't even discuss it that is harmful to some kids. They already feel different and often suicidal.
It's a cruel and unecessary law.

This is basically what the china joe admin has done ... paid off private companies to shill lies. All of them. And that is the first step ... get them hooked to the "crack" of big gov. Then big gov will cut off the funds when the "private corps" get out of line. This is happening in USA now.

some of the other things may have room for agreement. But that isnt as interesting.
