  1. Texas is going too far with this law. Prayer in schools should be allowed, but making it mandatory for only the 10 Commandments to be posted and visible is radical thinking. If the 10 Commandments is allowed, then every other religion that has similar laws should be posted as well. Even though Christianity was the predominant religion in the USA colonies, Judiasm was also practiced. Today, as we know, other religions have followers in the US, so laws should not favor one over the other. Texas Senate passes bills allowing time for prayer in schools, requiring Ten Commandments in classrooms WWW.FOX4NEWS.COM One bill would allow time for students and staff to pray at school. The other would require the Ten Commandments to be posted in every public school classroom.
  2. Wrong--here is an internet article on the subject Al-Aqsa mosque: Violence as Israeli police raid Jerusalem holy site WWW.BBC.COM Police use stun grenades and rubber bullets as Palestinians set off fireworks in the al-Aqsa mosque. What's behind the Ramadan raids at Jerusalem's Al-Aqsa Mosque? WWW.ALJAZEERA.COM Israeli forces regularly storm Al-Aqsa Mosque as worshippers visit the site during Ramadan.
  3. Speaking of Biden and Blinken. If this is true, then it is far worse to bury the truth of such damning evidence against Hunter Biden and possibly President Biden himself, than paying hush money to Stormy Daniels because of a sexual affair. A sexual affair does not hurt the USA, but what the Bidens did with China does. The Plan to ‘Save’ Hunter Biden Looks Like a Scam WWW.MSN.COM Morell said he assembled the intelligence experts and helped draft the letter because he wanted to “help Vice President Biden … because I wanted him to win the election.”
  4. I knew you would react this way as it seems that everything must be taken literally with you. My post was sarcastic as it was followed by this emoji 😉
  5. One of these days, justice might prevail equally for Democrat offenders, not just Republican offenders. A hope is that political corruption might one day cease to exist and the politicians can do the job they were elected to do for the benefit of all Americans Hunter Biden Is In Some Serious Trouble Now WWW.MSN.COM Hunter's legal team has acknowledged the payment but has claimed it was legal "seed money" for setting up a business concern in the United States.

  6. I do apologize for just pointing out to you that some of your posts are repetitive. And it is true that others in here a guilty of the same. To those others I say, there is no need for constant name calling, inflammatory and derogative descriptions of anyone in this forum, please stop. If you cannot discuss intelligently and counter respectfully another person's point of view, then for the sake of all of us and those who would like to be a part of these discussions, then clean up your act. I would hope that I am not the only one who feels this way.
  7. This little old lady is no lady---she should be confined and locked up for her own safety.
  8. This is a well known fact. So constantly bringing it up in different articles, does not deflect on the arguments presented that Germany has similar atrocities in history.
  9. Unfortunately, you do point out facts, but after that it seems that you must interject a derogatory comment about the USA as well. It is not hard to understand trying to fight back as I do against false statements and posts, whoever does it. Fighting back or presenting a contrary factual argument without all the name calling is what a forum should be. However, there are some who feel it necessary to insult others to try and intimidate and feel superior. Unfortunately, some politicians feel it necessary, and those persons just follow those actions.
  10. This article seems to contradict that the people in the small German colonies were doing well-- Germany’s role in the quasi-extermination of an African people is despicable, but at least Germany played no role in the most despicable crime against Africans — the slave trade. Or so it seems. After all, at the heyday of slavery, Germany did not exist. Yet Germans did — and they played their part in the transatlantic slave trade. It all started in 1682, with the founding of the African Company by the grand elector of Brandenburg-Prussia, Frederick William. Determined to rival Europe’s great sea powers, he ordered the establishment of a fort on the coast of present-day Ghana, to be named Groß Friedrichsburg. The fort was designed to serve as a point of departure for the German slave trade. In the decades that followed, German slave ships, such as the Friedrich III, transported thousands of African slaves overseas. Many of them ended up on the slave market of St. Thomas, in the Virgin Islands, over which Prussia gained control from Denmark in 1685. For some time, St. Thomas had the dubious distinction of being the most important slave market in the world. German merchants were an intricate part of the slave trade, particularly in France. Trading German linen fabrics for slaves in West Africa, who then were shipped overseas to the sugar plantations in Central and South America, they made a fortune. Some of them founded their own shipping lines devoted to the slave trade and used to supply the French overseas possessions with slave labor. One of the major destinations was present-day Haiti, which at the time was the source of three-quarters of the world’s sugar output. Other German merchants were based in London from where they contributed, directly or indirectly, to the slave trade. One of the best-known merchants was Heinrich Karl von Schimmelmann from Mecklenburg-Vorpommern in the east of Germany. Von Schimmelmann gained his fortune from his possessions on the Danish Virgin Islands, based on the forced labor of more than a thousand slaves. In his later life, von Schimmelmann settled in Wandsbek, a faubourg of Hamburg. There he quickly acquired a reputation as a major benefactor of the community. In 2006, Wandsbek’s administration commissioned a bust in his honor. Two years later, following protests from antiracist activists who doused the bust with red paint, the new red-Green administration ordered its removal.
  11. As is your permanent defamation of the USA!!
  12. Go back and read my post--you posted about hot dogs and diabetes in the USA-so I responded---
  13. An so I ask you---in the USA Americans did not just magically appear---the colonization of the United States was from European countries, who brought their disease and warlike hatred which caused this annihilation of the indigenous peoples. According to the International Diabetes Federation, diabetes is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases in Germany, with 9.5 million recorded incidences in 2019. Likewise, Germany has a history of genocide of native people in the colonization of Africa. So stop the better than thou attitude. History can bring out of the closet that which you do not want known. Genocide in German South West Africa[edit] Main article: Herero and Namaqua genocide Atrocities against the indigenous African population by the German colonial empire can be dated to the earliest German settlements on the continent. The German colonial authorities carried out genocide in German South-West Africa (GSWA) and the survivors were incarcerated in concentration camps. It was also reported that, between 1885 and 1918, the indigenous population of Togo, German East Africa (GEA) and the Cameroons suffered from various human rights abuses including starvation from scorched earth tactics and forced relocation for use as labour. The German Empire's action in GSWA against the Herero tribe is considered by Howard Ball to be the first genocide of the 20th century.[171] After the Herero, Namaqua and Damara began an uprising against the colonial government,[172] General Lothar von Trotha, appointed as head of the German forces in GSWA by Emperor Wilhelm II in 1904, gave the order for the German forces to push them into the desert where they would die.[1

According to the International Diabetes Federation, diabetes is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases in Germany, with 9.5 million recorded incidences in 2019.
  15. I don't know how many times you need to post the same damn thing.
  16. Guess Germany still has some apologizing to do itself. So don't throw stones at glass houses when you live in one. Opinion | Germany's Apology for Genocide in Namibia Is Not Enough - The New York Times WWW.NYTIMES.COM To atone for its massacre of the Herero and Nama people in Namibia, it must do much more than say sorry.
  17. CNN anchor asks if US wants ‘4 more years’ of Biden when 74% of Americans say US headed in ‘wrong direction' WWW.MSN.COM A CNN host expressed skepticism that Biden can viably run for reelection when so many American citizen are skeptical of America's future on its current course. CNN isn't always left like some in here indicated---they can also report the truth.
  18. So what are the National Guard and Highway Patrol supposed to do???? Maybe shoot and kill the homeless druggies--that will eliminate some of the problem.😉 Guess we could put them all in internment camps--
  19. It is about time that tougher bills on violent crimes and the death penalty reinstated in all states. However, for the death penalty to be enforced--it must be a unanimous decision and verifiable, provable evidence provided--circumstantial evidence without proof cannot lead to the death penalty. Not only tougher bills on violent crimes, but also for thefts --none this misdemeanor bullshit for theft of less than 700.00.
  20. This sad excuse for humanity should have never been out of prison or even alive, given his prior convictions and history. He was arrested in December for allegedly walloping his girlfriend in the back of her head with a mini-sledgehammer. She claimed Singletary refused to let her leave for two hours until she cleaned up the evidence. Singletary was also convicted of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill or inflict serious injury for an incident on Halloween 2016.

  24. I doubt that you did because there is no recording or video of him saying anything. The report is based on an Atlantic story that claimed he said those things while in France about visiting the cemetery of the fallen US soldiers
  25. Sources dispute claim Trump nixed visit to military cemetery over disdain for slain veterans, but back up parts of Atlantic report WWW.FOXNEWS.COM President Trump canceled a planned 2018 trip to a cemetery for American war dead in France because of the weather and not because of disdain for the slain soldiers who are buried there or concern about... The above story includes a denial that Trump said that the fallen were losers and suckers. Those denials are even made by those who do not like Trump, but defend the false accusations.
