Mindfulness:
Everyone with a brain says so.

I agree, a rotten brain.

Freedom of speech = Freedom to offend?
In the bush and Trumplandia.

When your kid's teacher tells him or her that s/he is a retard because s/he is black and naturally inferior, consider it freedom of speech.

Still freedom of speech. I once had an ignorant lady in Portland say almost same thing to me. I 'nicely' asked her if she would like me to give her and her entire scholarship to PSU. You need to see her bewilderment; she was gasping until I lost the sight of her.

So, the cure for bad speech is more speech.

Nobody said so. But if you are all so progressive, you must be 'a leftie'.

Fallacy

Nobody said a black person cannot be racist. But wait, is it supposed to be an excuse for white supremacists?

On the contrary, I'm saying that painting with a broad brush is a disgusting attribute of the left.

Mindfulness:
First of all, you still have not outlined and explained what makes me 'a leftie'.
Secondly, the left believes in a strong big government as opposed to the right who puts more emphasis on individual responsibility.

Another lesson for you.

You have TDS, which is far off center of left as you could get. I can sense how paranoid you are just because Donald Trump is the president.

There are intelligent questions and there are dvmb questions. The questions above fall into the latter category.

Cheap excuse for a lack of logical answer.

So what did Trump do to increase it? And where do you have these numbers from?

Is it True or Not? You should have known that I will provide the answer. But first, set yourself up.

So you admit that not every Muslim is a radical Islamist?

If I apply your 'intelligent vs dvmb questions' logic here, you know what the outcome would be... but I will answer you because I'm not dumb like you.
I admit that Islam is anti-western civilization.

It is not a straw men. I applied your logic. I see you don't like your own logic when it is applied to you. Thought so.

You applied no logic, you were strawmanning.

Abbeybailey:
You keep parodying this nonsense. I told you to name one and you can't. There's a difference between signing bills into law and executive orders. Both Senate and House passes a bill and the president signs it to become law. That's difference from Executive order. Trump can't sign executive order to stop ACA it has to be done by both chambers . What part of it you don't understand . Are you sure you schooled in US ?. If so, go get a refund or maybe you probably went to trump university.

Department of Veterans Affairs Accountability and Whistleblower Protection Act of 2017 is a bill! Are you okay?
Please cure your ignorance here: https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/signed-legislation



Also, listen to house speaker Ryan

Lucasbalo:
Peace to you my brother but you haven't answered my question ?. What Bill has the Senate and House passed and Trump signed to become law. The answer is Nada. None. He only sign executive laws which means that things are not going well for him with republicans in both chambers. Please don't come on nairaland and insult our intelligence by saying trump signed 33 bills. It's a pure and unadulterated lie. Go tell that to your drinking buddies at the Pepper Soup joints.

You are right. Things are not going well between him and some Republicans. He is fighting against a deep state, it's not going to be easy. Congress takes blame for not passing his bills, not him.
Donald Trump has signed over 50 bills so far, not 33. 3 years is still a lot of time to win fights, clean up Obama's mess and turn things around for good.

Lucasbalo:
It's so sad to see all this Generic House Negro idolizing a racist pig whose Nazi pals will hang them on a cross without any remorse. Have been to Serengeti National Park in East Africa and Krueger National Park in South Africa and you will never see an Antelope rooting for a Cheetah the same way you won't see a Deer rooting for a Lion but this brain dead fools will root for a White supremacist clown pretending to be a president.

You bigot did not quote me, but you are as racist as racism gets; same category as that ugly Fresno murderer. You, alongside your kkk counterparts should not be allowed to exist. I spit on you.

Mindfulness:
Trum is deranged indeed.

It's not a new leftist rhetoric at all. Everyone with TDS says that.

And now the same Trump takes offense at people protesting peacefully? So much for freedom f speech and expression.

Everyone feels offended. Freedom of expression is freedom to offend and to be offended. Protesters should exercise their rights, and so should counter protesters.

You did not even know that the left is progressive whereas the right is conservative? Gosh!

Speaking up and challenging status quo is not a exclusive to any political party/system.

Sweet home Alabama.
Go to the comment section of Fox News and see how often they call you monkey.

People of color, especially blacks make more racist comments than whites. We call them honkies as well. There are racists in every race. Playing victim and race-baiting does the baiter no good.

Mindfulness:
Off point. In democracies, the majority decides.

A leftie believes in democracy and not government of the minority. Great moment!

They also struggle with Nigerian drug dealers. See how it works. This is the beauty of xenophobia, it can be easily turned against you.

Like I earlier said, every criminal should face the law. Are you pro crime? Are you anti law and order?

Obama's mess?
What mess? He saved your economy which your other genius president destroyed.

You might want to tuck your ignorance in, it's showing seriously. Middle class income is better now than during obama admin; average black household income fell by $900. Trump came, it's now +$1000.

But you would not want her family to be protected from war based on their faith. Tell her that.

Her family is not at war with judeo-christian western civilization but her faith is, she knows that already.

You should be deported along with them. Why would you be treated like an individual when you put all Muslims in the radical box?

What did I say about that? It's utterly stupid of you to pull a strawman's. Quote what I said.

Lucasbalo:
My sister, keep giving that clown a lecture in reality. For a guy that adores tramp, what a generic negro he's. The guy told me he schooled in US the same way I schooled in Siberia. Lol

Way to go dude! Mob psychology in its truest form. Quote me if need my reply or stay quiet in your horrible safe space. Peace

Abbeybailey:
That is a big lie. It is not only CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC , BBC and all the other cable News are carrying it. That is the junk you guys get from Faux News. He hasn't signed a single bill passed by Congress. Border wall, he has not passed or built. Obamacare repealed failed twice. Tax reform will fail because he is a tax cheat who would not disclose his taxes. Go and tell that to your pepper soup joint gang. The only thing racist pig named tramp has done is executive order. Stop lying because thorough bred American here will call you out.

Trump has so far signed over 50 bills. That is a fact, although I know leftist libtards like you don't care about facts; it gets you emotional. So yes, a lot of bills have been signed by the Donald. It's dissapointing that McCain and co failed to kick ACA to its rightful place-the dustbin, but then we should not expect it to happen easily. As it stands, Trump's order that minimizes the economic burden of the ACA pending its repeal is helping to some extent. I am satisfied nonetheless that obama's sinister bills are dying as I expected.

Some colleague just said "Ms Pierson, Omarosa, Ben Carlson, Sheriff Clarke... are white racist black white supremacists!" I'm still lmao. Funniest shit of the morning yet.

Abbeybailey:
Obviously you don't know a damn thing about America.

Counter argument fail.

Tell us just two bills passed by Congress and signed into law by trump ?. Very simple question for you to answer.

Too cheap for this argument. It's all on CNN website; go give it a read.

Who is slandering atiku abubakar?

Mindfulness:
A minority.

Citizens with equal rights.

That was 2015. And in 2017 Germany is still the biggest economy in Europe, has the lowest unemployment rate and a budget surplus. And despite her mistakes, which everybody makes, she has just been re-elected. She is even called the leader of the free world, a role which she herself is reluctant to accept.

Great! With about a million jobless refugees and working their way up to match UK in rape and crime. Great!

Your hero has not achieved anything in 10 months. No wall, no money from Mexico, no repeal and replace, no jobs back from China and a dangerous situation with NK. Puerto Rico is in shambles, he tweets about NFL.

It will take a while to clean up Obama and Clinton's mess. It will take a good fight; Trump is on track. Border crossing from Mexico has fallen to its lowest level for 17 years. 42 bills signed so far; Obama did 39.

It is a melting pot of cultures from which Muslims were never excluded. Or are there no Muslims in the country? Have no Muslims dies to defend and protect the US?
Moreover, millions of Muslims have successfully assimilated into Western countries and respect the democratic institutions and processes. Last time I checked, London had a Muslim mayor. But like Hitler condemned all Jews, it is in fashion for the facist far-right to condemn all Muslims.

I said islam, not muslims. My muslim colleagues are amazing human beings. I would prefer them over some of my Christian homies anytime. I'm currently with a "moderate" muslim girl.

I think you should leave the US. Too many Nigerian brothers are into the business of drug-trafficking and you should be condemned along with them for the simple reason that you happen to be born in the same country as them.

More reason I support banning of sanctuary cities. Criminals should be severely dealt with and illegals among them deported asap. ICE is doing a good job so far though.

Mindfulness:
What makes me fall into the category?

TDS - Trump Derangement Syndrome. In one word, paranoia.

Germany has inhibited is inhibiting their citizens' right to free speech?

Present continuous. Not only Germany, UK, Canada, US (until Trump came, thank God), etc.

@bold
Progressive and left-leaning, not right and conservative.

Akpa amu

Then you should move back to Africa. Millions of America born citizens do not want you there, especially Trump supporters.

I am yet to hear from those millions of Americans. Maybe their voices are not loud enough; or they don't count... or maybe because I'm a Trump supporter.

Mindfulness:
But you have the audacity to tell Merkel which and how many refugees she has to take in?

No I don't, Germans do. I haven't met or spoken to Merkel.

Merkel's decision to accept 800 000 humans fleeing from war was not illegal and not uncontrolled. And surely Germany has the capacity and means to integrate them. We are talking about Germany here, not Romania.

And stop acting like there are no parallel cultures in America. Last I checked, Chinatown in NY had all signs in Chinese and Afro-Americans in Chicago were still living in huge numbers in ghettos.

Merkel lost control of the crisis as at 2015. She even introduced border control at some point, still refugees kept pouring in like water. It got to an extent that over 300,000 were unhoused. Fast forward to 2017, the country says it will take up to 2022 to give jobs to about 300,000 to 400,000 migrants, out of over 1.2million migrants! For the rest maybe 10 years time. Isn't that awesome?

Like I mentioned earlier, America does not maintain a homogenous society. On the contrary, it is regarded as a melting pot of cultures. The unifying "culture" is the law of the land. And before you second guess what I meant by parallel culture, islam is anti-democracy, and therefore, anti-America.

Mindfulness:
So anyone who disagrees with you is a leftists social justice warrior?

Not everyone, but you fall into that category as far as this conversation is concerned.

Stop deflecting. You were speaking of the German minority that voted for the AfD and called them brave. Nothing brave about voting for what you believe in in a free country. Still, an overwhelming majority of people voted for parties that openly expressed their dedication to and support of the Geneva Convention. And they did because the memories of WW II and people fleeing from war are still fairly fresh in the memory of German people. And I am sure you would also love a country to open its doors to you and your family if you were fleeing the war but you do not want the same for people different from you.

It is bravery to stand up to the PC culture and fascism of the left. In a country where free speech is being incessantly stifled, speaking up and challenging the status quo is bravery.

Of course, anyone fleeing a war would love to be granted a refugee status, but that's not the issue here. The issue is a biting more than it can chew. Like I earlier said, I'm not anti immigration but citizens' concerns should come first. Do you get it now?

It's not a wahala something, they have him in their custody. Did they besiege and break into his house for nothing? It only makes sense that they have him, else they have some explaining to do.

Ghen ghen

Igbo babies, how come?

Is it entering your stomach? Leave am make he drink am nah.

Happy birthday to him. But has he grown up?

She looks yummy and I wanna smash. That's all.

The doggies deserve two bullets each in the head and the owner, one bullet to his leg.

Day don break. Agbaghi uzo owelle mgba, onaghi echi.

Mindfulness:
Oh oh oh, now that someone is telling you to go back to Africa, you learned to differentiate between legal and illegal immigration?
Were the Syrian refugees illegal? Merkel HERSELF, the boss, let them in. So what are you ranting about here?

Earlier you were all about nationalism and how cultures are endangered and yet you want to mix your skin and African heritage with that of American people, of which a majority is not black?

We are getting somewhere.

No one has the audacity to tell me go back to Africa unless it's coming from a native American.

I never said I'm against immigration but illegal and uncontrolled immigration is detrimental to any host nation. I support taking in immigrants in a way that they can be assimilated into the society, not leaving them to form a parallel culture; same culture from which they ran away! America is hardly a homogeneous society, however, there are certain formulated ideals which are truly held and which represent the American cultural identity.

Mindfulness:
It is obvious you do not even know what the Geneva Convention is. Else you would have not responded with anything related to the EU. This is the problem that I have with you people on this forum and in the comment section of Fox News . You read an article or two and you fake academic knowledge. But arguing based on your emotion and pulling sources that one-sidedly support your limited views, give away your laziness to inform yourself properly and profoundly and make you look shallow; sentimental at best. Highly irritating to have to explain everything to an adult like to a child. The child would at least understand that it is inferior in knowledge.

Quite a description of a typical leftist social justice warrior; it aptly fits your demeanor as far as I can tell. By the way, I was already half asleep typing out that reply and trying to make it snappy. However, what I was trying to say is that Germany's position in the EU made it more of its prerogative to address the refugee issue.

A good analogy would be that of a General unpreparadly jumping across enemy lines, gets overwhelmed and screams out for help from soldiers who were neither here nor there. That's how Merkel is struggling to strategically increase pressure on other EU member-states to accept refugees. Heck, if over 100 countries are signatory to the Geneva convention, why would Merkel carry the matter ontop her head like gala? How many of those refugees have America, Netherland, Poland, Swiss, Hungary, Austria, etc taken in? Aren't they among the Geneva Convention signatories?

And yeah, I watch Fox News sometimes just like anyone who appreciates meaningful and logical discussion. But I will tell you this, I enjoy watching more left-leaning anti-Trump networks, I get bored watching Fox because they espouse at most views I already hold. I love hearing dissenting views.

The Muhammad I know will not like this secular gesture so much. It is haram.

Mindfulness:
How is that your problem? They have co-existed with thousands of Turkish immigrants without compromising their values and they can coexist with less than a million Syrian refugees. They are a country of 82 million people.

Did you say you were from the US? Are you not a country of immigrants? Immigrants from all over the world? If you have a problem with migration, move back to Europe. That is the country of your ancestors. Or better so to Africa, that is if you are black.

And stop being disrespectful to innocent children. It makes you come off as si.ck.

I'm Nigerian, 100; so I can't be white. Yes, America is a country of immigrants. However, I don't think anyone hates legal and controlled immigration.

Mindfulness:
You are entitled to your opinion and free to call this minority brave.

Majority of Germans voted for parties who openly expressed their dedication to the Geneva Convention. And they have been given almost 90% of all votes.

EU wedding is not beneficial anymore. It's a no brainer. The majority were sheepishly being led to the slaughter, save for the minority whose voices keep getting louder. Just a look at UK, it's appalling what a once admired society has degenerated into.

Mindfulness:
They will be deported if the country is considered safe. Thousands of people from former Yugoslavia have been deported. Germany has recently declared some of the Maghreb countries safe and deported thousands of Arabs.

The moment the Syria War is over, thousands of Syrians will be deported too.

Same with Iraqis.

And it was the CDU (Merkel's party) who changed their attitude of 'welcome refugees' to 'goodbye refugees'.

I know, it is not easy to keep up with the constant change taking place in the political arena.

How many thousands will they remove (out of over a million) before their schools are filled with Germo-Syrian little munchkins?

Mindfulness:
Majority of Germans are not scared of losing their national identity or culture but a number of people are scared of terrorism. Nationalists in Germany make up a minority. Germans, due to their history, are skeptical of nationalism and even patriotism.

Exactly, the minority got tired of unending self-guilt. They are the brave ones for speaking up and calling out a spade for what it is. It's only a tree that would receive threats of being cut down and still remains standing. Isis announced they will infiltrate, Ms Merkel did not take it serious, she put her country men, women and children in danger. Any leader that does not put his/her country first is foolish.

Abbeybailey:
I am not a Muslim but I believe Muslim have different races. Blacks, Whites and probably overwhelmingly Arabs. So what's your point. Answer me what is it about you that your fetish about America is so obvious. Titanic is sinking and you are obsessed about America. All your epistle about America is garbage because you are toiling the oath of Right Wing Nazi loving Faux News.

Only about 15% of the world's muslims are Arabs.
It's Indonesia, Pakistan and India are in descending order of population the 3 largest in the world.

There are more Chinese muslims than in Syria in the same way Russia has more muslims than Jordan and Libya.

So what could a white Trump say to a white Bosnian muslim to sound racist?

I live in America, went a hugely liberal school; hated Trump for his super proud wealthy mogul demeanor; blindly supported Obama. Currently loathe everything; still like Obama, currently support Donald Trump as president. What else?
