Snoofy,

Gay workers still have federal protection against employment discrimination under the Supreme Court's Bostock decision.

The shelter changes are not really about gays. The foster-care issue pertains to a very specific scenario and is not an action against gays as a group.

So yes, some additional safeguards were reduced, but gays did not broadly lose basic employment, housing, marriage, military, or hospital visitation rights.

AI written.

Snoofy,

Don't bother with the "public school inclusive education" routine.

It's not the government's job to groom children.

Snoofy,

I have no desire to continue this line of thinking with you.

Just answer my question how Trump has reversed laws harming gays.

When you have an answer to that, I'll consider responding.

Snooty,

You're going to need to be specific.

In what ways has Trump repealed any laws that have anything to do with gay people.

Transgenders have been decided to not be considered able to be combat ready.

But nothing specific against gays.

Not all transgender are even gay.

Zed,

"I do care that he punishes other men attracted to men."

In what way has Trump punished "men attracted to men?"

Lamp,

"And then there is Pres Trump's apparent infatuation with young handsome men."

That would be better than men who dress up and put on makeup like a woman, which is what liberals want.

Clown,

"No one gives a ---- about your opinions."

Do you believe you speak for everyone who reads this site?

Lamp,

It didn't make me feel anything remotely sexual.

Zed got a warm fuzzy out of it thinking about men's sacks.

Different strokes for different folks.

Lamp,

"my opinion"....

Is that a confusing concept to you?

You're right that Zed thought it was homoerotic so I stand corrected.

Zed,

"Does anyone else perceive a homoerotic theme here?"

I'll tell you my opinion.

No, I don't see any homoerotic theme.

And I think I would pick up on it.

Maybe it's an attempt to make sure men have a certain level of aggression and combat readiness.

It certainly has nothing to do with sexual orientation.

Testosterone levels have nothing to do with whether someone is gay.

Snoofy,

You're so used to knee jerk reactions belching out prewritten responses, you didn't even bother to notice i used the word "attempt".

Theres always some illegals going across.

But Biden didn't even attempt to permanently secure the border.

Speak,

The bill was inadequate.

Democrats placed too much emphasis on increasing the government's ability to process more illegal immigrants rather than preventing illegal entry in the first place.

It contained some enforcement measures and allowed for a temporary border closure under certain conditions.

It did not attempt to permanently secure the border, which was a deal breaker.

You have a lot of conceptions.

Just stop telling yourself lies.

Dems are blind.

Dan,

I wouldn't call myself a "bad" person either.

Alex,

"Sin is a con."

That idea goes back centuries, and it has been used in many different ways and taken on many different forms.

Some con men exploit it to take people's money. Others collect money and genuinely use it to help people.

I suppose the lesson is to give wisely.

Truth,

Are you ready for God to judge you?

Are your sins forgiven?

Speak,

No....believe me....I would not refer to myself as a "good" person.

I am a sinner just like all of you.

Speak,

Let's put things another way.

What might be happening around the world right now if Kamala had won?

I suspect Obama would likely have a great deal of say in what's going on.

The southern border would be worse than ever.

States would be screaming.

Really...the horses are off and running. Why complain now?

Whose fault is it democrats picked a lame horse?

Zed,

How would either you or I know the difference?

What special gift were you given that allows you to judge with such certainty?

I tend to go by the old adage that you can judge people by the fruit they produce around them. That usually gives you a fair idea whether their influence is for good or evil.

The sheer hatred Trump provokes among many on the left has had one positive effect. It has exposed a great deal of their hatred, hypocrisy and dishonesty.

Zed,

"Speaking for myself, I was completely weirded out when Trump portrayed himself as being Christ."

That's what happens when you watch videos.

I avoid them for the most part.

From what I have seen, there are Christians who are believing Trump has had divine protection.

So what if Trump extrapolates and says he's divinely inspired or even Christlike...well...I don't care.

Maybe he is, maybe he isn't. Biblically, it's not out of the question that God might use someone like Trump for a mission. God can use anyone.

Whether or not your assertion is even true, I don't know and I don't care. I won't research it. I've never heard it.

If God is using Trump, well....I won't stand in His way.

Corky,

Only took me 2 seconds to see I don't want to watch any more of him.

Creepy voice, creepy face, creepy staring at the camera.

Immediately pegged him as smug.

I see why you'd like him.

El,

I am convinced some leaders are genuinely driven by their faith (for good or bad), and some leaders use faith to get what they want from believers (usually money and power).

Regarding Iran, I wouldn't have an idea what is really going on over there.

Zed,

You should learn more about how religion and faith shape different cultures.

Religions are not interchangeable, and they do not all influence people or societies in the same way.

I'm no expert, but you do not seem to understand even the basics.

El,

To what degree do you think the Iranian leadership's religious belief that Allah is on their side contributes to their determination?

Truth,

However, while usually thats not the case, for America it's the exception rather than the rule, such as Japan.

What will it take to finally bring Iran's bullying to an end?

Truth,

You hit the ball way into left field on that.
