Want to argue about politics? Healthcare reform? Taxes? Governments? You've come to the right place!

Try to keep it civil though. The rules still apply here.

    Apparently no dress code for women at all or one regularly ignored.

    That is the experience here too.

    • Speaking of dress codes and discrimination. A French man has been complaining that restaurants discriminate against him and he can't find work after transferring into a "black alien" that has included cutting off "his ears, nostrils and even a few fingers; sharpened his teeth and dyed them purple; and covered his body in extreme tattoos."

          Tattooing your skin doesn't make you black either, but anyone who cuts his ears and nostrils off along with some fingers so his hand looks more like a claw, probably isn't the (to quote little jimmy) the brightest bulb in the socket.

              That's just trans-racism.

                  Yes, we are Trump voters.

                  No, as I said, he and his wife left directly after the rally. That means they skipped the peaceful and patriotic march to the Capitol building, and the events that followed.

                    ......... and the outrage that followed...... yes?

                    This interests me...... religious people like this pastor have seemed to have acted on what they must think had been their God's wishes rather than your country's laws and Constitution?
                    You have said that you would act on what you think your God wants rather than follow your country's legislation ....or Constitution?

                    Christians have told me before that they would follow God and break laws on the basis that Jesus certainly did prepare and carry out exactly that kind of attack upon the centre of Jewish control .... the Great Temple.
                    Some don't focus too closely upon this because they prefer to concentrate on G-John's version of events but even that gospel describes a similar action by Jesus.

                    But other Christians tend to focus upon what Paul wrote, that Christians should keep to the laws of the countries where they live. Romans 13:1 & 13:4, Hebrews 13:7.

                    I've always thought (believed) of Jesus as one who rebelled against a corrupted, greedy, hypocritical government, and so I do wonder how many of those criminals were strong Christians.

                          Probably not in this case. Trump's team of attorneys were promoting the idea that VP Pence, as President of the Senate, had *implicit* authority under Article II and/or Amendment XII to interrupt the process in some way, rather than just perfunctorily counting the votes. I believe (like, about 60% certainty) that Constitutional scholar Johnathan Turley said this was not something Trump's lawyers had totally invented themselves, that the idea had been around a while and could be a "good faith" legal theory, but it was definitely very fringe, and he believed incorrect.

                          So I suspect many or most of the people there were in general agreement with Trump's view that all Pence needed was the "courage" to do the "right thing" and intervene.

                            .............. So violently invading the Capital building causing deaths was ......honest and legal?
                            Now why didn't anybody tell us that in the UK. All we hear about is the convictions.

                            Jesus might have done what he did in the Great Temple.
                            Paul wrote that the laws must be kept.
