The guy had a rainbow flag in his room! Therefore we should ban the rainbow flag now right? It's a symbol of hate after all.
It is a symbol of division. The division of butt cheeks that is. Zing!

We'll settle it with a good old fashioned football game. Then we'll dump gatorade over our heads, pound some beers, eat hot pockets then go to sleep.
There. racism solved.
If the NFL is anything to go by, concussing a bunch of grown men doesn't seem like the best way to fix anything...
Ugh. And don't get me started on that. ***...Steelers...signing Michael Vick...arrr....
Mad about him killing dogs that is tame compared to what other NFl players do rape and domestic violence !
I'm sorry but people are more important than dogs. And I love dogs especially golden retrievers.
I loved Vick when he was an Eagle. Now he is a dog murdering pig and the Steelers should be ashamed.

I can't fault anyone who legitimately thinks this way.
But knowing these pieces of ***are making millions of dollars a year to play a game and get away with terrible things really doesn't sit well with me.
you know. Those damn feelings again.
Edit: Also, Netflix and Amazon Prime never close.
I've looked for an NFL alternative there is nothing on Sunday afternoon. And no I don't consider Netflix an option any day of the week ! I don't like movies that much though.
What, too good for Feed the Children paid programming?
I prefer the Ronco roaster paid program !

I remember feeling like I was going to puke watching him make Ron's 2 Minute Clam Sauce for his pasta maker informoercial

He's been arrested 3 times since the Treyvon trial for various domestic disturbances including threatening his girlfriend with a gun twice and throwing a wine bottle at her after they broke up, but the charges in all 3 were dropped at the request of the victim or when they recanted their story.

He claimed to be the VICTIM of racism, but I haven't looked at his blog or wherever people are pulling his racism from.

Seriously, this guy was tormented by the poison that is liberalism.
This is a man who burdened himself every time a reporter used the phrase "out in the field" because he felt it was a reference to cotton fields and was therefore a racist micro aggression.
Remember guys and girls it's not "PC" it's "treating people with respect" or else. Micro aggressions will no be tolerated. Two men tormented by the poison that is conservatism.

What a boring game this is. You mean the same attack Trump himself condemned, saying that isn't the way to solve problems?

You can preach hate from coast to coast then just absolve yourself of any responsibility by condemning unstable people's reactions to it.

Go figure.
Show me a quote from Trump (with sources please, video and/or audio only) of him saying that we should go beat up random people.
I know you won't find it.
But anyway, if you are attributing this attack on Trump, I can also attribute every single hate crime starting from the Martin case where a black person has attacked white people and/or businesses (aka looting in Ferguson) from Obama's "if I had a son, it would be like him" comment.

Yet the same people who beat the person will hear that and think that the homeless Latino man was a problem they had to solve in the ultimate wisdom of Trump and themselves. A problem that they just shouldn't have solved with violence!
I mean it was trump himself who said a couple of days ago at that press conference where Ramos was booted from. That he would have the illegals that are into crime out of here so fast our heads would spin. Of course people will hear his nonsense and act because a man on fire causes fires.
This whole immigration hatred coming off of a chunk of the Republican party is toxic.
Yea let's go back to hating white people !

The perpetrator attributed it to Trump. Trump said the Mexican government was sending rapists and murderers over the border. That's hate speech.

I think the legal threshold for hate speech is a bit higher than that...

Trump is not inspiring hatred or violence towards Mexico...
What is not protected by the first amendment are "fighting words"
There are certain well-defined and narrowly limited classes of speech, the prevention and punishment of which have never been thought to raise any constitutional problem. These include the lewd and obscene, the profane, the libelous, and the insulting or "fighting words" those that by their very utterance inflict injury or tend to incite an immediate breach of the peace. It has been well observed that such utterances are no essential part of any exposition of ideas, and are of such slight social value as a step to truth that any benefit that may be derived from them is clearly outweighed by the social interest in order and morality.

So you may not like what Trump is saying but to elevate it to hate speech is ridiculous.

1. Hate speech may have a legal application, but it isn't exclusive to legal proceedings.
2. Freedom of speech protects you from criminal prosecution and censorship from the government, not from responsibility, monetary or otherwise.
There are consequences to preaching hate like he is, and those consequences are often paid by innocent bystanders at the hands of unstable people.

Let me know when Trump is promoting violence towards Mexico I can wait !

Random Politics & Religion is for topics that aren't thread worthy on their own and do not have their own existing thread.
Rules and Guidelines
Forum Rules and P&R Section Guidelines still apply.
Satire is tolerated.
If your topic covers a story over 6 months old (Watergate, Benghazi, 2012 Election, etc.) post it here.
Discussions on racism, homophobia, transphobia, and the like are allowed, targeted insults based on these will not be tolerated.
Political debates get heated and are meant to be intense, if you take offense to being called or proven wrong, you don't belong here.
If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen; if you prove you can't handle the criticism you bring upon yourself in this thread, you may be removed from it. You are responsible for what you post.
Along those lines, heat is fine, but sustained, clearly personal hostility is not okay. The personal attack rules still apply. Attack positions, not posters. Failure to adhere to this will result in your removal from the thread.
This thread is NOT the Flame Core.
These rules are subject to change and modification where and when needed.
Random Politics & Religion may be mained or demained depending on the activity within at a Moderator's discretion.
With that out of the way, let the debates begin!
