The context was "xenophobia" which refers to the whole pool of potential immigrants.

So there is no implication of the beard's being fake.
Sorry about the allergies, sounds like a bad case. Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

And "the ones they send" wouldn't amount to xenophobia.

Obviously he was talking about somewhere between MOST and ALL migrants. He wasn't even FUCKING SURE that some of them were good people. He could only ASSUME that SOME (definitely not meaning MOST) were good people.
What body count? We were discussing this yesterday and you've forgotten already. Very convenient memory. Nonetheless, I documented them down to the individual incident level in a message you hadn't seen when you wrote that. I can't wait to see how you spin that. Probably your oft-used "better no facts at all rather than your facts". ABE Ah, I was pretty close. But I call that a miss. Edited by JonF, : No reason given.

Ideology doesn't change facts. These facts are extremely well documented.
As I said, under the map on the web site there's a list of incidents with plenty of detail. The first one is:
quote:Go wild. Check out each one. I admit there are a very few in which the right-wing connection isn't strongly established, but not enough to change the overwhelming trend. BTW, none of the incidents were labeled "terrorist". Please try to keep up. Every one of them made the news. Are you telling me you didn't hear about the synagogue shooting in April? (Obviously they're a little behind. El Paso adds 22 more on the right wing tally, and Dayton adds nine in the one incident by a liberal). Edited by JonF, : No reason given.

Also, a number of right-wingers have been arrested before they can carry out attacks. Most recently this guy in New Jersey
In his car he had
semi-automatic assault handgun, a 9mm semi-automatic assault pistol with a high-capacity magazine, a loaded 9mm pistol, two barrels sawed off from a double-barrel shotgun, a sight for an assault rifle and a stripped AR-15 bolt carrier In his home the police found
14 more firearms, including assault rifles, shotguns, and handguns, authorities said. They also found four high-capacity magazines, ammunition, a grenade launcher, silencer tubes and a ballistics vest, And
Inside both the vehicle and the home, police found clothing and bumper stickers with white supremacist and Neo-Nazi slogans along with a document containing racist material and purporting to be an instruction manual for owning a slave, As well as drugs.

I can't possibly check out any of that, but of course as usual I don't trust anything anyone on the Left says. I AM sorry but the cynicism is way too deep. If you're right then you're right but I'm not going to be able to figure it out. It's not that I care one way or the other, it's just that I know you all love to hate the right and facts can get skewed by bias and I'm in no position to sort it all out. Since I get called all the PC names for what seem to me to be uncontroversial comments I don't have any motivation to delve into a long list of supposed right wing murders tallied by a left wing organization and posted by a leftist. I do sincerely apologize, it's just beyond me and I don't care a whole lot.

Right, you love your bubble of lies and reality just doesn't matter.
Get a friend or friends to help. Hire someone to set up your computer for better viewing. I'm not a big fan of Best Buy's Geek Squad, but that should be within their capabilities. Until then don't make any claims about right-wing violence.

Faith throws in the towel:
it's just beyond me and I don't care a whole lot. well then we shouldn't care a whole lot anymore about you, Faith. sad. nobody's forcing you to post on EvC. obviously your vision problems are seriously impairing your participation, as they understandably would. so if you want to quit, so be it. you will be missed."I'd rather be an American than a Trump Supporter." - xongsmith, 5.7d

Go take a flying leap. I will not miss you. I do not suffer fools and racists gladly.
Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts "God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness. If your viewpoint has merits and facts to back it up why would you have to lie?

Nothing can motivate you to have any interest in reality. You've made that abundantly clear. I appreciate the softer tone of your last few messages. But your mind is still locked up tight Edited by JonF, : No reason given.
