If you're in the USA: why aren't you? If you're not in the USA: we don't want the National guard to be sent in

Apply this logic to the hospitality industry, where Trump famously got his start. Your hotel hosts dignitaries around the world. If you find out one of your guests invited prostitutes or did drugs you could have leverage over some very powerful people. If there is sewage surveillance, you will see it at the hotels first.

Yes, because he repented! He didn't defend those who thought they did nothing wrong. Jesus and the Bible is pretty clear that Jesus won't defend you unless you're actually sorry. He is the friend that calls you out on your shit, to your face in front of your peers to the point that you either run away or admit your mistake. What would you call that if not shunning?

Tough shit,. It is our responsibility to protect people, not to fix every broken man. Even Jesus flipped tables and ran out the money collectors from his house.

What? She was a fantastic candidate! The fact she lost to someone so obviously bad just means she was bad at communicating to dumb voters. This is a widely known and predictable problem with Americans and you can't blame her for that. So you see, she was the best person to not get the job. /s

They identify with wealth and power. People who have that are their people.

Giving people a pass for being intolerant is writing off the people they are being intolerant towards. And if you actually care about those intolerant people you would shun them in the hope they recognize their mistake instead of coddling them like they're incapable of being an adult.

Prison is for poor people who could not hire a better lawyer or buy a judge.

They ain't raping their fellow rich kin. This shit is classist, they don't view the poor as people to be respected.

I get that it takes a lot of anger to say something like that to a random stranger who can't physically harm you.

Lol. I get it. Your and my dad had morals but didn't do a lot with them. So we had to show up and be the actual Christian to the friends and family while Dad is away at work. When you get older you realize what was missing was balance and a recognition that there is a season and time for everything - including violence.

I'm a parent. I would back up my daughter on this one if it happened to her. That is certainly my decision to make and it matters more than you think.
