Oh No, The New Awesome Primary Thread

So you don't really care about the vote of the majority after all. That's fine with me. I was never in favor of allowing a majority to vote away a minorities rights in the first place. But now I wonder if you actually have an argument.

I'm not going to cease from expressing my opinion. And I notice you doing a lot of vilification here in this thread.Do you even have an opinion about whether waterboarding works? Aren't you just saying we should trust Trump even though the actual evidence that it does not work? Nope. Not going to do that.

If the shoe fits, wear it. Nothing PC about calling a generalized hate statement xenophobic. I'm certainly not going to allow you to shorten the dictionary.

Good thing you're not a lawyer. Sad that you're so wrapped up in your own righteousness you can't listen to reason.

I don't really care about your opinion on gay marriage. What I asked you was whether you would follow the law on the subject. If not, then your posturing about 'illegal' activity justifying any manner of speech would seem to be wrong.

Unfortunately, that sometimes happens to lawyers too. I've sat in conferences with a client and watched every lawyer in the room group think themselves into thinking they are going to win a case only to be devastated by the verdict.

There's a significant difference between criminal offenses and civil offenses. Which is why it's at once worrisome and problematic when people (primarily angry Anglo GOP supporters) refer to undocumented immigrants as "criminals." A rapist is a criminal. Being brought across the southern border to the U.S. at 3 years old by one's parents, attending high school, and graduating in the top of the class is not the mark of criminal behavior.

The real offense is to refer to illegal immigrants as "undocumented" which pretends they are in some sense legal, which is a PC lie that has been picked up by the media and shoved down our throats along with all the rest of the PC program to undermine the nation.The difference in the terms doesn't mean a lot to me. Illegal is illegal.Hey I'm happy there are success stories like that and I'm all for doing something for them somehow or other, but illegal entry into the country is illegal no matter how you spin it, and declaring illegality legal is mind rape.

You know the answer to your question. The law violates God's word, so wherever it puts a person in the position of choosing to obey the law or obey God's word Christians are going to obey God's word. That's that.

I see. So now "reason" justifies illegality. Wonderful. How very PC.

But the dictionary you love is the PC dictionary. Some Christian you are who prefers PC ad hominems to arguing the facts.

The fact is I don't believe a majority is for gay marriage. The vote is bogus. However, Christians will not obey such an evil law, however it was manufactured, where it requires a choice between it and the Bible. Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

I would like to nominate Theodoric's Message 729 as the most perfect example of PC in this discussion, an exquisite example of ad hominem paranoid reasoning, psychoanalyzing your opponent, inventing motives for your opponent in order to attack them, completely ignoring the substance of the discussion in favor of emotion-mongering propaganda revolving around the classic PC terms "hate" and "hypocrisy." A blue ribbon post. It was close of course since there are many good examples of PC on the thread.And the winner is:

Derp. They are legal. They are legal persons. Maybe you should consider studying a bit of civil law before commenting on this.Meanwhile, "undocumented" refers to their actual status in the United State. Utter nonsense. You keep harping on and on about "PC" when this isn't about subscribing to some vague PC perspective. This is about seeing the world without your lenses colored by a racist and xenophobic ideology. Kewl story, brah, but the difference in terms sure means a lot to undocumented immigrants who are beaten by Trump supporters who view them as illegal persons. Like what? Call them "illegal" when they are perfectly legal persons? Vote for a GOP candidate who wants to deport them? It's a civil offense, not a criminal offense. Unlike rape. Let me see. Do you call someone who fails to pay rent on time "illegals" (that's a civil offense, not a criminal one)? Or do you view them far more holistically, treating them as individuals instead of lumps of people? Edited by Genomicus, : No reason given.

Ha ha ha. What a nice example of leftist mind-bending word magic. Deserves Runner-Up to Theodoric's Perfect PC.
