Not everything Trump attempts to do has to be defended

And liberals don’t “hate tariffs.” Actually, free market capitalists hate tariffs. Liberals do however understand that Trump’s tariff policies are irrational and will do more harm than good.

Liberals lack common sense

So I’m not listening to you complain about tariffs

Fair trade is a requirement

We defend our Allies way more than they do us

We are burdened with debt

Trump is trying to deal with it…

I’d love to challenge that man on cspan for all to see his wicked thinking

I just as my Chat GPT pro 5.2 the same questions

here you go!

Was George Floyd a good man?

That’s a fair question — and it depends on what someone means by “good.”

4

George Floyd was a human being with a complicated life.

Facts about his past:

He grew up in Houston’s Third Ward.

He had multiple arrests and served prison time in the 2000s for robbery and drug-related offenses.

After prison, he struggled with addiction.

Friends and family described him as gentle, faith-oriented, and someone trying to rebuild his life.

He worked various jobs, mentored young people through church groups, and moved to Minneapolis for work opportunities.

So was he a “good man”?

That depends on your framework:

If you define good as having no criminal history, then no — he had serious mistakes in his past.

If you define good as capable of love, growth, faith, and redemption, many people who knew him would say yes.

If you’re asking whether he deserved to die the way he did, the legal system answered that separately: the officer involved, Derek Chauvin, was convicted of murder in his death.

It’s also possible for both of these statements to be true at once:

A person can have a troubled or flawed past.

And still not deserve to be killed in custody.

Most people — regardless of politics — can agree that human beings are rarely one-dimensional. They’re a mix of strengths, failures, regrets, and relationships.

If you’d like, I can also explain how different groups tend to answer this question and why the conversation became so polarized.

Was Charlie Kirk a good man?

Here’s a grounded way to think about your question “Was Charlie Kirk a good man?” — keeping in mind that “good” is a moral judgment and people’s views vary widely depending on values, politics, and personal beliefs.

????? Who Charlie Kirk Was

Charlie Kirk was a prominent American conservative political activist and founder of the youth organization Turning Point USA. He began the group at age 18 and built it into a major force in conservative circles.

He became a widely known commentator, podcaster, and ally of former President Donald Trump, especially in his later career.

?? How Different People Viewed Him

Different groups judged Kirk very differently — so any answer depends on which perspective you adopt:

?? Positive Views (from supporters)

Supporters saw him as a strong communicator, a mobilizer of young conservatives, and someone who expanded political engagement among youth nationwide.

Within conservative and Christian nationalist circles, many portrayed him as a champion of their values, especially free speech and traditional social positions.

After his assassination, some conservatives even framed him as a martyr for their cause.

?? Criticism (from detractors)

Critics highlighted that Kirk often made inflammatory and controversial statements, especially about gender, LGBTQ issues, and race. For example, he opposed transgender rights and made remarks many saw as derogatory toward LGBTQ people.

Some observers argue his rhetoric contributed to polarization in public discourse.

Others described aspects of his advocacy as extreme or divisive.

?? Trying to Answer “Was He a Good Man?”

Whether someone was a “good man” depends on one’s ethical lens:

If you value political activism and engagement by people with strong convictions, many supporters would answer yes — he was principled and effective in advancing his cause.

If you value inclusivity and empathy for marginalized communities, many critics would answer no or see his work as harmful because of the divisive nature of some of his positions.

It’s important to remember that most public figures are complex: they have personal virtues, flaws, impacts, and legacies that different communities interpret differently. The question isn’t simply about facts about Kirk’s life — it also involves how you define “good.”

If you want, I can break down specific aspects of his work or views (e.g., his stance on free speech, culture wars, youth politics) and how historians or analysts interpret them.

The only population that has not changed in America are black people

how that is possible I have not clue

gang violence and abortions have to be the top 2 reasons

with root cause of no stablility of black men in the black community

here is a Yale professor in a suit talking about getting rid of white people

That's hate... not illegal, but when there is no shame at all, in fact he got applause, mind blow!

Correct!

But as a Christian engaging online I will point on the world’s desire to pull us into acceptance of sinful lifestyles

As Christians, we have to have our personal convictions

It’s really not up to us how another person is going to live their lives

But we also when it’s time to vote or to voice our opinions, it needs to be consistent with scripture

And it has to be consistent with how a politician would handle such issues

It’s delicate yeah it’s really not that difficult

You know what the Bible says so therefore you can’t just be OK with everything that goes on in the world

So I think the difference is, we can accept the things around us, but we do not have to approve them

Does that make sense?

wow

:banghead:

What is "Christian" about Kid Rock? Have you ever even heard his music? Have you listened to him speak, about anything? The most conservative thing he ever did was to boycott Bud Light for three weeks before drinking it again. The most "Christian" thing he ever did was write a song called 'Only God Knows Why' to complain about his immense fame that he still didn't feel was immense enough. Man, this country is LOST.

He sang til you can’t as Ritchie

The other night

Very powerful - love it. He’s super talented- I was really impressed

He’s on a journey with Christ just like Jelly Roll

They seem to be called and ready but still drop f bombs or flip the bird “at haters” on TV - which seems disingenuous to their profess faith in Jesus

Although for myself, I can certainly curse - im not proud of it, but I am able to control my tongue around a camera

Diversity is our strength

The only thing stronger than hate is love

Am I doing this right?

Yeah Auto Pen let in 4 million illegals by this point in his presidency

Gas was up a dollar gallon

they claimed job growth by simply letting people out of their homes
