Alex,

"The protesters are tired of people being abused by ICE."

At the risk of sounding complacent, how many people have actually been deported without incident?

You're only hearing about the confrontations that hit the headlines.

Isn't the bigger problem that the protestors are simply opposed to all deportations and not just when ICE gets more aggressive?

Aren't protestors using ICE aggression as a smoke screen to justify obstruction and even violence against all deportations.

Alex,

Keep in mind, he was elected to deal with the undocumented issue.

I don't think people understood how ugly it would get, but he's not doing this on his own.

He was voted in to do something about the issue.

So what's your alternative? How do you get the undocumented (and some violent criminals) to line up at the border and leave peacefully?

Or maybe we should just talk about it a few more years?

Clown,

"BullJohnson, are you capable of posting something without it being a lie?"

Are you capable of posting something without sounding insane?

Alex,

Do you not think the protesters are part of why ICE appears to be acting more aggressively?

Clown,

You fully support Fascism in America."

No...but the far left and far right should be locked in a room together so they can battle it out.

The rest of us could live in peace.

Alex,

"It sounds like Minnesota has none right now."

Aren't you taking that out of context?

You know good and well the central issue is pursuing undocumented illegals.

Unfortunately, things are getting out of hands and much of that I blame on the protestors.

Alex,

Or losing our motivation to better ourselves and becoming permanent wards of the state.

Alex,

"I suspect we're heading to a Universal Income."

Certainly AI is turning the world upside down.

The trick will be helping all the displaced people without becoming a socialized society controlled by the government and losing our freedoms.

Clown,

"She's was like, I can't wait to marry that fag!"

I doubt that was what she was thinking, but she loved me from the moment we met and still does today.

Do you have any idea how nice it is to have someone who loves you as deeply as she does me and always has?

Funny...I mentioned this before but I've kept a journal since I was 19. Still keep it today.

Recently I went back and was reading old entries. I found the one where I met her. The following week I just happened to write that "I might could marry someone like her". But, it was a long arduous journey getting to that point. I've always lived with the conflict of wanting emotional fulfillment with men and also needing her.

Another funny thing about my journal. I mentioned one day in the journal that "I dreamed we got married last night". Exactly 1 year to the day we actually got married. Certainly wasn't planned. Just happened.

Eb,

In my life, I spent about 20 years supporting liberals and had liberal friends.

Yes...I stand by what I said that liberals are more inclined to have boundary issues than conservatives.

Conservatives have equally strong opinions as liberals, but conservatives are more inclined to mind their own business (except when it comes to religion and sexual ethics) and liberals think they need to "educate" you.

That invasive personality only proves how misguided they are with their Messiah Complex. This is based on my anecdotal experience knowing both conservatives and liberals.

Clown,

"No one insulted her more than you did when you forced her to marry you so you could pretend to be straight."

She pursued me...you are one of the stupidest posters here.

Cor,

"The closeted unhappy guy?"

Your "innate gaydar" may or may not be seeing the whole picture.

If he was gay and not responding to your attempts to invade his life, you shouldn't be taking it personal. Its not about you.

Your lack of understanding to realise if he was gay and feeling conflicted and suffering, it likely had nothing to do with you or being a republican.

Mormons, up until more recently, had strict rules on homosexual behavior. His family were likely all Mormon, too.

He may have been facing being excommunicated from his church and having a strained relationships with his family.

The conflict of being a homosexual with Christian values is complex.

Don't be so quick to judge this man.

Jpw,

"LOL then this idiot tries to act like he's "taking it.""

I've read all manners of attacks on my character and life choices.

The ONLY time I respond negatively and take offense is when they bring my wife into the thread to insult her character.

Insult me all you want but don't be so invasive and inappropriate to discuss my wife.

Anyone would be lucky to have her in their life. She's brilliant and kind. I've been good for her and she's been good for me.

Liberals have boundary problems.
