[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Well, he's not entirely wrong. We do have a problem with Muslim extremists, and they do have training camps, and they do want to kill us. I'm not aware of Mormons training to do that, but I could have missed it.

I don't think he said "regardless of their legal staus." Where are you getting that from, Jeff?

Also, could you address the Reverend Wright parallel? [/quote]

The guy didn't say we have a problem with Muslim extremists. He said we have a problem with Muslims. Where are there training camps in this country? The guy explicitly said the problem was in this country.

Every aspect of that guy's statement was wrong and Trump said he is going to look into it. What exactly is he going to look into?

Regarding Reverend Wright, Obama said he was not in church when the controversial statements were made. I've never seen proof that Obama in fact heard those statements. It is quite obvious that Trump heard the statements about Muslims.

But, since you are so into comparing these two situation and you obviously condemn Wright, do you think Trump should have rebuked this guy?

Somewhat. As someone with increasingly Libertarian leanings, I bristle at the idea that political candidates should be in the business of "rebuking" the free speech of the voters. I'm certainly no fan of Trump, and a candidate more reasoned and gracious than he might have prefaced his response with something like "I don't believe that's true about the President's religious faith, and I want to point out that our problem is with Muslim extremists, but to address your concerns about terrorism, I'd like to say..."

Libertarianism is a completely antisocial political philosophy and is complete bullshit.  [/quote]

You really know fuck-all about Libertarians, don't you?

I do more volunteer work as a Libertarian - I don't believe in government taking care of people - than most SJWs I know.[/quote]

No, I actually am related to several people who claim to be "libertarian" which is a loose collection of generally antisocial ideas spanning the left-right spectrum, and which in practice in this country seems to attract people who have a problem with social norms and authority in all forms.  Individual rights are king, society be damned.  Right vs. wrong is all relative depending upon the person's individual beliefs/wants/desires.  You cannot run a country of 360M appealing to people who are inherently hostile to government and law and who frequently express confusion between their beliefs and actual facts.[/quote]

Do you understand the concept of local government?[/quote]

Yes, I do. But we have a federal government.  Don't like it, leave.  We also can't run the world's largest economy by leaving all authority in the hands of anti-social, anti-government goobers at the local level.[/quote]
