Yeah, most are probably normal, good, though naive people, who are easily conned, but there is a certain percentage of his supporters that, like Trump himself, are just deplorable human beings. You see thats what they do, they rile you all up about side issues, (you notice you don't hear about the bathroom issue anymore) while they screw you over on economic issues. Did you notice that Trump is said to be going to personally be a Billion dollars richer with the new republican tax bill, while he's out there telling all the sheep that he and all his wealthy friends are going to lose bigly. Lol.

2 Kings 19:22-24
And it came to pass, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he answered, What peace, so long as the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many? And Joram turned his hands, and fled, and said to Ahaziah, There is treachery, O Ahaziah. And Jehu drew a bow with his full strength, and smote Jehoram between his arms, and the arrow went out at his heart, and he sunk down in his chariot.
Whether he was a good choice or bad, people selected Trump because he had a strong personality. They wanted to shake things up.

If you can't see what a crook Trump is, and you obviously can't, then your credibility concerning Clintons character is not worthy of anyones consideration.
Nope, I didn't hear it from Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Alex Jones or any of those paid liars Lilpix. And unless you yourself are rich, then you aren't going to keep any more of your money worth talking about Lilpix, this tax bill is structured for the rich, not the middle class or the poor.

Originally posted by Tassman View PostCertainly there are exceptions but given a relatively peaceful population of c. 270 million it can be said that overall it is not a nation of extremists and that moderate Islam prevails.
And IIRC, Bali is in Indonesia. Bali is a popular tourist destination and has been struck by terrorism in 2002 where over 200 people died and again in 2005 when 20 more died and over 100 injured.
And according to Indonesia Investments:
On several occasions Indonesia has made global headlines due to vicious terrorist attacks and the presence of terrorist networks (and training camps) that may be connected to the militant Al-Qaeda group. Indonesia is also considered one of the world's largest suppliers of Islamic State (IS) fighters, with more than 500 Indonesians having joined the war in Syria and Iraq (it is estimated that more than 100 have traveled back to Indonesia after having fought alongside the militant organization), based on data from the National Counter-Terrorism Agency (BNPT). It illustrates the existence of a radical Muslim community that not only believes Islam should be the sole guidance in life but is also willing to use extreme measures to reform and uproot established conditions.
Still, Indonesia is considered one of the more "moderate" Islamic countries -- much like how Turkey was a couple decades ago.

Not unlike ISIS in this regard.

By the way, why wasn't she at least FIFTY points ahead?

2018 and 2020 are going to be very interesting...The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Martin Luther King
I would unite with anybody to do right and with nobody to do wrong. Frederick Douglas
