Lamp,

If you robbed a bank, the outcome would be getting arrested thus proving it is wrong to do.

Claiming you believed it was legal is immaterial.

What you believe about robbing banks has no merit.

Snoofy,

See? There you go.

You respond not to what I said, but to something I didn't even say, acting as if your logic has merit.

You say I have no specifics.

Your "proof" is, if I did I'd be "trumpeting them like Gabriel."

Corky,

Have I not said anything you do yet since taking a little breather?

Now I have.

Snoofy,

If I answer you, you'll just twist my words and build strawmen.

You rarely respond to what I actually write. Just your strawmen.

Donner,

"Democrats are mostly Christians. All are believers in God in one way or another."

Beliefs aren't judged by applying vague labels. They're judged by the outcomes of actions.

For years, liberals have actively advanced policies that contradict core Christian doctrine and values on life, family, speech, religious freedom, and moral order.

They knew exactly what they were doing and have been using the courts with precision to accomplish their goals.

That positions them as the enemy of Christ.

Laura,

"That's you've been swindled into believing that Trump is a religious man"

I didn't vote for Trump because I believed Trump was religious. I believed he would not deliberately position himself as the enemy of Christ, the way democrats have been doing for many years now.

I voted for Trump because the Democratic Party is slipping into darkness.

Laura,

"Deal with it"

What's there to deal with?

You'll have to explain to me what I'm supposed to be dealing with?

Alex,

"Trump is an atheist"

He says otherwise.

Maybe Trump is and maybe he isn't.

Not my concern there.

I like most of what I see regarding Trump's approach to freedom of religion and speech and will leave it at that.

Snoofy,

"final solution"

Wow...that's not a good choice of words, when you've just posted sounding paranoid atheists are under attack.

Snoofy,

Better watch out.

Your obssession with conspiracy theories might get you a room in the new Trump hotel for those who have lost touch with reality.

What this will mean is any religious icons can be displayed.

The government isn't endorsing any particular one.

The way I see it, Trump is just saying it's not the government's place to suppress religious belief either.

Atheists have just grown accustomed to things working a certain way and now the situation has changed. The whole "tax payer funded offices" being a safe haven for atheists is no more.

I mean...you know there's a problem when atheists claim the government has a responsibility to enforce freedom "from" religion instead of freedom "of" religion.

Trump is kicking you know what.

Snoofy,

There are plenty of real parasites.

Salvation Army and Red Cross will continue to operate and help people.

Bringing that up is a dumb deflection.

Enough of this....I'm not reading more of this thread because I don't want to read the disappointing miserable comments I see from people.

Snoofy,

Take off your blinders and look around at the filthy cities democrats have created.

What do you think should be done that hasn't been tried.

Some people are simply not able to help themselves and its really cruel leaving them on the streets.

If you would think about it, instead of this knee jerk partisan reaction, you might be able to have a bit of compassion.

Should we wait until they commit crimes and go to prison?

I'm not going down a rabbit hole with this topic. I said all I'm going to say.

Frankly, I suspect there's a lot of functional mentally ill drug users who will object to this idea because it hits a little too close to home.

The comments on this thread by some liberals just shows how clueless they are.

The first thing that came to my mind too when I read about this was Trump is essentially reviving the old system of dealing with the mentally ill. Hopefully we'll learn from the mistakes of the past.

On the plus side, people will finally get a chance to get off drugs and perhaps get the right medication to help them even if it is against their will.

If they are mentally ill they won't have to live on the streets.

In the long run, perhaps cities may find themselves being able to attract businesses and customers.

This is a win/win proposition.

Who is losing? The parasites who get paid millions of taxpayer dollars feeding off the the misery of mentally ill drug addicted people virtue signaling pretending they are being helped.
