Donald Trump says transgender people should be able to "use the bathroom that they feel is appropriate." On NBC's Today show Thursday morning, the GOP front-runner said he opposes North Carolina's "very strong" bathroom bill, which allows businesses to prohibit transgender people from doing just that.
You know, I really liked Trump. I really favored his stance on immigration, and trade. I felt he was pretty politically astute, and sharp.
But then he pissed in the cheerio's by supporting that pedophile football coach, now this. Why? Just to pick up a few votes from some damn football nuts, and now a few perverts.
I have had it with him. He has lost the votes of myself, and my whole family. We will most likely support the Constitution Party.
He better hope he picks up a lot of votes from all the perverts, to overcome all the votes he lost.
I'll just say that Paterno wasn't a pedophile and was always a decent person. Now he did have the pedophile on his staff. I'm not sure what Paterno knew, but he had to have some idea what was going on. My guess is he was embarrassed by it and just didn't know how to deal with it.
" I'll just say that Paterno wasn't a pedophile and was always a decent person. Now he did have the pedophile on his staff. "
Yes, I know. I apologize. I just expressed it that way, because it was easier. Still, he had the pedophile on his staff, and should have done something about it.
Still, he had the pedophile on his staff, and should have done something about it.
I think that what he should have done is let law enforcement take care of that sort of thing. There are no underaged children on college football teams.
" I think that what he should have done is let law enforcement take care of that sort of thing. "
I think so as well.
I think where we differ is that you seem to think that he was wrong to not report his suspicions to law enforcement.
I would say that depends completely on the depth of his suspicions.
I consider law enforcement to be corrupt and often criminal, and I reject any notion that one ever has a DUTY to go to law enforcement to report things.
If Paterno did not particularly suspect the coach of anything egregious, because he was focused on other things, I do not believe that he should be held "accountable" for anything - he did nothing wrong.
" you seem to think that he was wrong to not report his suspicions to law enforcement. "
If he suspected anything, then he would have been wrong to not do so.
Remember, these were young children, they & their parents apparently had faith that they would be safe. They were not.
" I reject any notion that one ever has a DUTY to go to law enforcement to report things. " ??? WTH ? I agreed with you, then you change your position ? Fine, and how would you react if the father of one of those young boys had taken the law into his own hands, and reacted as a Knight Templar, and dealt with that coach himself ? If my son had been one of those boys, that would be the end of that coach.
We will just have to agree to disagree counselor. To me, it appears you are simply trying to rationalize. This is not a court room. It may work in your mind, but not mine!
Paterno is dead. Whatever justice there is for him to face, is being meted out by God.
You're ready to change the economic system of America in order to punish Trump for stating his opinion that Paterno's STATUE should be put back up. If enough people agree with you and follow you, then the statue will stay down, and we will be a socialist country within 8 years.
If Trump wins, the statue will probably stay down - it's some local authority in Pennsylvania that will decide that, not Trump. But we will have a regulated free-market capitalist system.
You have taken the boob bait for Bubbas hook line and sinker.
To me, it's a free speech issue. And I'll sacrifice capitalism to keep free speech too.
So, it looks like Hillary. I'll still have free speech under Hillary. And the statue will stay down, so you win too. So, there's the answer. We divide and fight, Hillary wins, and we end up better off.
You are pro faggot. Like your welfare ideas. You would lie to people and let them think they are what they are not. You subsidize mental illness whith your stupid ignorant rhetoric.
You even said you would vote for pro abortion Hillary Clinton. You're no christian. You're not.
You have defined "Christian" to be the antonym of "Catholic". So, by your definition, you're right.
I am not a "Christian" in your mode, and I do not want to be either. Because your form of "Christian" is evil.
I said that I would vote for Hillary Clinton if Trump is not the Republican nominee. I said that because the only way that Trump can be deprived of the nomination is by utterly corrupt Republicans stealing it through subterfuge.
If they do it, it is imperative that their corrupt party be annhilated and lose everything. Then they won't HAVE the power or wealth or anything left to protect, and then, from a new foundation, something better can be built.
Obviously if the Republicans come to their senses and Trump is the nominee, I vote for Trump and a straight Republican ticket, to give Trump a Congress that can do his bidding and get his program through.
