Black Lives Matter are also a hate-filled group just like the White Supremacists and the KKK; I despise both altogether. No need trying to shield one while accusing the other. They are all in it.
You are far from knowing the truth for yourself. And it's sad because you can't even differentiate truth from lies anymore.
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Lounge - Donald Trump Is US President-Elect ! by rakish(m): 1:43pm On Aug 14, 2017
How can one reason that Black Lives matter is a terrorist group just like the kkk and white supremacist? Do you lack knowledge of basic history? We all know blacks still face discrimination and segregation compared to whites. The BLM came on board in lieu of the incessant police brutality to blacks that led to the killing of many blacks by the police. The White supremacists are a hate-filled group that believe whites are superior to others and so on. So how can you equate a group rising up to hate, discrimination and brutality to one that thrives on it?

Hate speech is sure protected under the 1st amendment, Hate actions are not. Regardless of whatever group is involved (both of which personally I dislike): whether you call them white supremacists/nationalists or Black Lives Matter; they have freedom to air their grievances peacefully. It is when another group show up and begin to ferment trouble, then it is when it gets violent which should be condemned.
Always as deranged as ever. Hate speech is not a right. Your rights ends were another's right begin. Your freedom to air your views are not absolute. We all know the history of white supremacist. We also know why they are now bold to come out and voice out their hatred. David Duke said it all.

Liberal stupidity is beyond repair, we watched them sobbing and crying on the election night. I still gat tonnes of videos of liberal tears Lol.. ...Each time I get bored I watch and feel good hahaha. The fact that they keep living in denial and are deluded is the reason President Trump would automatically be re-elected in 2020.
When you fail to learn early, you learn the hard way. Common sense should tell you that things are not going well for Trump. He has performed poorly so far.

The Comey testimony is over and there were few new things than what we already know from the leaks weeks ago and yesterday. OF NOTE: Comey called Trump and the white house liars for lying about why he was fired. He also noted Trump wasn't under investigation 'personally'. He further asserted Trump asked and expected loyalty from him also telling him to let the Michael Flynn investigation go. He had no doubt that Trump fired him because of the Russian investigation and the list goes on. Comey also believed Trump was asking for his loyalty as an Exchange for keeping his job. Trumps private lawyer just called Comey testimony lies by disregarding that Trump asked comey for loyalty and to let Flynn go. So, it's not over yet coz it seems Bob Mueller is looking at obstruction of justice and the white house are denying comeys testimony, some.

Here is a picture CNN tweeted as a striking conversational quote between Comey and Trump. Now the question is: 1. Doesn't the President has the right to say he needs loyalty? I mean, if someone works for you, you want to know if they are loyal. 2. Is the President expected to accept an unloyal FBI Director? 3. CNN - Clown News Network
I am getting apprehensive with you guys show of ignorance and height of bigoted mentality. FBI is an independent body and Government is not like a business company. Asking Comey if he likes his Job before asking and expecting loyalty from him is a clear show of wanted submissiveness which Trump wanted. Also telling an FBI director that you have been loyal to him clearly shows Trump needs comeys loyalty and that is on the Russian probe and Michael Flynn which he told Comey to let go. Comey had to ask Jeff sessions to help cut off communication between him(Comey) and Trump. Why? A lot have to be said and expantiated and Trump cannot completely exonerate himself from this. It bothers me what has gone wrong with common sense.

You do not expect someone in the center of the controversy to jump into conclusions but you are.



Comey told Trump 3 times is he not under investigation
Comey wont say it in public and Trump was frustrated
Trump wanted Comey to investigate the pee tape
Trump wanted to know if members of his campaign colluded with Russia
Trump never pressured Comey about dropping the Russian collusion investigation

Those are the facts.

You can keep spinning it if you want
Like seriously? How did I conclude? Again, Comey told Congress that he is not personally Investigating him. We all know that. But we also know that Trump was in control of his campaign team, so he can't be left out of the investigation. It is a Trump campaign that led to his victory. The FBI is an independent body here Missy, and President needs to be careful when it deals with an independent agency. Asking an employee if he likes his job before telling him you expect loyalty speaks volumes, it rattles an employee who loves his job and wants to keep it. Telling him to let an investigation go speaks volumes. Telling Comey To clear the Russian cloud while voicing out his displeasure of what is going on is indirectly telling an employee you want the probe to end in your favor and it goes on.

You conveniently left out this part where Comey said

I did not understand the President to be talking about the broader investigation into Russia or possible links to his campaign.

I explained that we had briefed the leadership of Congress on exactly which individuals we were investigating and that we had told those Congressional leaders that we were not personally investigating President Trump. I reminded him I had previously told him that. He repeatedly told me, "We need to get that fact out."

The President went on to say that if there were some "satellite" associates of his who did something wrong, it would be good to find that out, but that he hadn't done anything wrong and hoped I would find a way to get it out that we weren't investigating him.

January 6, and, as he had done previously, expressed his disgust for the allegations and strongly denied them. He said he was considering ordering me to investigate the alleged incident to prove it didn't happen. I replied that he should give that careful thought because it might create a narrative that we were investigating him personally, which we weren't, and because it was very difficult to prove a negative. He said he would think about it and asked me to think about it.


So Trump wanted Comey to investigate the so called pee tape and never asked Comey to stop any Russian collusion investigation (in fact he wanted to know if someone in his team was complicit). He was frustrated Comey told him multiple times he is not under investigation but wont say it in public. The only bad part from Trump in these statement is the Micheal Flynn but Comey isnt even saying Trump obstructed that investigation
You do not expect Comey to jump into conclusion do you? Intent, is what is needed here and to some extent, I feel it has been established. You don't expect Trump to blurt things out directly, there are different ways to send a sign or signal. Ofcourse, Comey expressly told Congress that he is not investing Trump personally. We all know that. I need loyalty, I expect loyalty. Those are the notable words of Trump to an FBI director who is investigating his campaign. Do not forget Trump told Comey he wants the Russian cloud on the white house to go away as it is impeding on his governance.
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Lounge - Donald Trump Is US President-Elect ! by rakish(m): 8:16pm On Jun 07, 2017
Trump invited Comey for dinner. He first asked him if he wants and likes his job. Then as the conversation progresses he asked for comey's loyalty. Comey promised to give him honesty. Trump changed his words to honest loyalty. He invited Comey to the white house, had a one on one conversation with Comey. Trump asked Comey to let the Michael Flynn investigation go calling Flynn a good guy. Comey promised to hasten the investigation. Trump again asked for loyalty from Comey. Trump called Comey and asked him to make the cloud surrounding his Russian campaign probe go away. He assured Comey he did nothing wrong even though his campaign staff might. Trump fired Comey.

The arrogance and stupidity of folks with your thought pattern towards Islam is so nauseating.

Now go and check it: Here is a list of islamic terror jihads since the past 38 years.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Islamist_terrorist_attacks

This does not include the terrors of the Othorman Empire nor the invasion of Usman Danfodio and a host of other such Jihadist movements in countries and cultures that are so far away from Mecca.

Dude, I don't know if your skull will be able to absorb it, but the truth is, Islam is out for one thing: GLOBAL DOMINATION.

Islam is a full scale political philosophy that is eternally anti-western culture and civilization.

ISLAM IS NOT A RELIGION. It only has a religious institution, just as it has legal, judicial, economic, educational, and social institutions.

ONLY CRAZY PEOPLE CALL ISLAM A MERE RELIGION.
Read through my words carefully. Why are we having the incessant attacks now? They were not like this 30years ago. I can't be stupid to rule out the fact that there was no terror attacks back then. It was not close to what we have now.

Ah that's convenient.

Rakish said Mohammed only waged war in self defense and was prosecuted by the people of Medina to "near extinction" (Which is not true). Maybe you should open your eyes and read what i was replying to

if Ishaq is unreliable, Read Bukhari 46:717.
What I said is no lie. Go and read the history with an open mind. Mohammed and his followers left mecca to Medina because of persecution by the pagans. The jihad against the pagans of mecca was to entirely defend themselves, their religion, and protect its followers that still live in mecca under persecution. Again I repeat, this, just like the other Abrahamic religions were engage in such practices In order to further enhance their religion.
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Lounge - Donald Trump Is US President-Elect ! by rakish(m): 9:20am On Jun 06, 2017

The bolded part is a lie

According to the best Islamic sources,

When the apostle openly displayed Islam as Allah ordered him, his people did not withdraw or turn against him, so far as I have heard, until he spoke disparagingly of their gods. When he did that, they took great offence and resolved unanimously to treat him as an enemy. (Ibn Ishaq/Hisham 167)

Although asked to stop, Muhammad continued to stir up trouble by “condemning” the local religion, causing the Meccans great anxiety:

[The Meccans] said they had never known anything like the trouble they had endured from this fellow. He had declared their mode of life foolish, insulted their forefathers, reviled their religion, divided the community and cursed their gods (Ibn Ishaq/Hisham 183)."We [the Meccans] have never seen the like of what we have endured from this man [Muhammad]. He has derided our traditional values, abused our forefathers, reviled our religion, caused division among us, and insulted our gods. We have endured a great deal from him." (al-Tabari, Vol.VI p.101)
I mean they were persecuted In mecca and took refuge in Medina. They persecuted the Muslims, killed them because Mohammed was preaching against them and their beliefs? Does just that justify the killings and persecutions of Mohammed and his followers? Didn't the Christian church do the same when spreading Christian beliefs in pagan dominated places? Your hate comes from reading those quotes to justify terrorism. But the real truth is not what you think it is. The world does not need so much hate at this moment. Again I ask, where was the Islam terrorism 20-30 years ago? The West are not foolish or ignorant when they refuse to use the words Islam terrorists, they no better than you do and can ever imagine. You think terror attacks affects only conservatives? Why are liberals not ranting the way conservatives are? Simply put, liberals are more intelligent, knowledgeable than conservatives.

If they were brainwashed like you said. Who brainwashed Mohammed to say this:

Sahih al-Bukhari 2797
Narrated Abu Huraira:

The Prophet said, "By Him in Whose Hands my life is! Were it not for some men amongst the believers who dislike to be left behind me and whom I cannot provide with means of conveyance, I would certainly never remain behind any Sariya' (army-unit) setting out in Allah's Cause. By Him in Whose Hands my life is!I would love to be martyred in Allah's Cause and then get resurrected and then get martyred, and then get resurrected again and then get martyred and then get resurrected again and then get martyred.


Sahih Muslim 30—Muhammad said: “I have been commanded to fight against people so long as they do not declare that there is no god but Allah".

Sahih al-Bukhari 6924—Muhammad said: “I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: La ilaha illallah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allah), and whoever said La ilaha illahllah, Allah will save his property and his life from me.”
Read the post I earlier posted. You seem to be wallowing in your ignorant assertion of Mohammed s words. I am not concerned about the Bible or Quran which people use selfishly, I am more concerned about those kind hearted people who practice their religion with all commitment and peace of mind, who abhors wars, crisis and terrorism. Recently, over a hundred British Imams refused to bury the terrorist attackers because of their faith. Why is that? Also recently, four Muslim countries withdrew support from Qatar because they believe Qatar is supporting terrorism. Why is that? So like I said, it is unfair to many good Muslim men and women out there who pray for peace, practice it, to be branded terrorists.

So, after all the rant, who did the brainwashing on Mohammed to launch his first Jihad in 620 C.E?

And how come that these days no one seems to be brainwashing Christians to persecute "non-Christians, pagans, ancient modern scientists, Knight templers, women" etc.?

Why is it now only muslims getting all the "brainwashing" to lunch terror attacks in the name of Islam?
Stop been ignorant. I gave the Christian scenario to easily make you understand that during the formative ages, these religions have done things to protect their religion. Especially Islam, it has been persecuted by the pagans and authorities in Mecca into near extinction, that was when Prophet Mohammed and its followers had to protect their religion and themselves from persecution. It has nothing to do with brainwashing then, it was about survival. You can't compare that to present terrorism. Let me ask you, where were the "Islam terrorists" as you call them 20-30 years ago? Why are we having the incessant terror attacks now?

Lying to yourself and trying to twist words is not a valid argument. I never said all Muslims are terrorists. But denying that the attack has nothing to do with Islam is stup1dity
Liberals are not saying it has nothing to do with Islam literally. We are simply saying those who perpetrate this crimes in the name of the Islam religion are brainwashed and deluded people who have missed the significance of Islam. Just like how many Christians perpetrate crimes in the name of christ and the Bible. Like I said, you have no idea what people can do when brainwashed. You liking terrorism to Islam is wrong as well as ignorant.

Go back and read the history of the Muslim Jihad and how it conquered the people of present mecca who were pagans then. Also, Go back and read the history of the Christian Church, how it persecuted non Christians, pagans, ancient scientists, Knight templers, women, learned men like Leonardo da Vinci also, go back and read the history of how the Christian Church converted several pagan symbols and festivities, coverted them to smoothly spread Christianity and converting pagans. You lack basic history of how these religions all came into being. They all have dark histories but what they have come to be today is far from the inhuman practices they engaged in during the formative period of the Abrahamic religions.

My friend you are still not getting it - a simple basic premise of Trump's logic.

1. Climate change

2. CAUSE of climate change.

There's is a very YUUUUUUUUUGE diffrence between the two.

Number one is universally accepted as a fact.

But number two is a den of scientific controversy, depending on who you listen to.

So stop mixing up the two.

Nobody is denying climate change - not even Trump.

The controversy has always been about the actual CAUSE of the warming.

Maybe you should go back and read that report again - with open mind.

The truth is that UN - with more credible data set - said that there was a PAUSE in global warming in recent decades, but nobody knows exactly WHY yet.

So the other counter report that was the anchor of Paris Accod was merely a lie concorted to discredit the ealier CONTRARY finding by the UN.

And the annoying thing is that the new report was rushed, unvetted and deliberately exergerated to politically push the US into self-defeating economic action.
My friend Donald Trump called climate change a hoax. His secretary for environment Scott Pruit is a climate change skeptic. Why do you think Trump called out China as brain behind the climate change accord? Because China is now the world producer and exporter of clean renewable energy, he feels China will be taking the billions. You need to know that Trump is more concerned about bringing companies back to US not the effects which made the US move its companies to China in the first place. The accord stiffles Trump and his billionaire friends from exploring several areas like coal and oil exploration. Who signed an executive order for the continuing of Dakota access pipeline after many protests from native americans? So its all about the money for trump and his minions not minding the environmental effects. You know the world is headed for ignorance when we begin to turn away from facts and evidences and relying on speculations. "I represent the people of Pittsburgh not Paris". That's an ignorant thing to say.

Exactly, and the climate accord covers that. That is what China is trying to combat or tackle in the paris agreement. China is the worlds producer of renewable energy and also exporter. It has triggered its effort in combating climate change and environmental pollution before the paris accord.

Well, it turns out that the Paris Accord itself was greatly influenced by a deliberately flawed and unverifiable data that was deliberately designed to misslead the world leaders into action. The rogues actually went as a far as rubbishing a more credible report from UN which said that there was a strange drop in global warming in recent decades as opposed to what it was in the earlier decades. Simply put, the Paris Accord was pure political and economic abracadabra which had NOTHING to do with the enviroment.

Here's an opening dialogue on this revelation from the Daily Mail:
I read the report. Now, am not going to dispute or approve the report whether the Paris climate pact was exaggerated for personal gains. We all know how science counters one another. But the glaring thing to know is that climate change evidence far surpasses any reports or claimed facts against it. This assertion was not arrived at by one person, it is proved by various climate change experts and scientists. This can simply be a lie concocted by climate change deniers or people against the accord or better still, alternative facts. You do not easily believe whatever you see on the net unless it goes in line with your mindset,and that does not mean it is true.But the truth will always be climate change is real, and that is what Mr, Trump does not believe.

The US accounts for 17% emissions and China 20% . China is committed to fulfilling its carbon emission goals just like several other member states. The Accord isn't even binding but persuasive. So I don't know what you are talking about that US pays more. See what is happening in Beijing? Trump is an ignorant climate change denier and he doesn't care about the consequences of his actions in the long run.
