Yea, this is exactly what he thinks. He obviously thinks hate speech is protected under the first amendment. So when he was "confronted" he was standing up for free speech.

When he's in prison after being found guilty, he will think the reason is fascism. And he will be used as an example to all the other RWNJ out there that believe the same vile garbage this guy does.

This is why ignorance is so dangerous.

Why was Senator Burr using his Intelligence Committee power to bury a 2009 report on torture again? I heard he was trying to erase history, but I don't understand much more. Does anyone get it?

“As a Christian, I believe that there is a creator in God who is much bigger than us,” Rep. Tim Walberg (R-Mich.), a graduate of evangelical schools Taylor University and Wheaton College, said at a town hall last week in Coldwater, Mich. “And I’m confident that, if there’s a real problem, he can take care of it.”

The thing about God or Trump's America (take your pick) is that either one would suffocate without the oxygen of ignorance. It's not possible to function correctly in a world where the potential suppositions of what we don't know replace the scientific evidence of what we do know.

I wonder if all this is calculated by Griffin - trying to get under Trump's skin by stealing some limelight from him.

i don't understand kathy's line here with this whole photo deal. just say "**** you it's art". her audience prior to this was probably 99% trump haters so she's not losing her audience by creating evocative anti-trump art. nobody ever held a press conference to apologize for piss christ. it's a free country, just say it's art.

According to her lawyer, she has been getting a lot of death threats. Knowing Trump's supporters, I believe it.

No, no, no, sorry. I just asked, "no matter what?" without thinking too deeply about it.

He said "maybe if he starts breaking the law or hurting people" I guess without thinking deeply either.

BTW, where have we heard that "if he starts breaking the law" thing before? Oh right, God & Biblical morality. "God can't do bad things because he determines what's good or bad."

"But, that's tautologically circul..."

"AND all of God's actions are good BY DEFINITION, so he leads by example too."
