Here we go again…

Can we have a post-election truce already? :o
Not while people who identify as Catholic advance things that the Catholic church clearly teaches against.

It gives people the WRONG message about Catholics.
Non-catholics can say what they want, because they’re not practicing and make no bones about it. At least they’re honest about it.
But when Catholics are uninformed…???

Unsubscribing.

I have a question, a real honest non snarky question:

Why do I keep seeing ppl saying women, people of color, LGBQT, Muslims and marginalized groups are “afraid for their lives” because Trump was elected? That Trump wants to strip them of their rights, incite violence against them, and find there existence a threat. I’ve not seen him say anything of the sort.

Just so you know, I’m glad Hillary lost, but I’m still cautious about what a Trump presidency means. I agonized over my vote, so I don’t think I’m blinded by the glow of victory. I’m genuinely confused.
Trump doesn’t have anything against the LBQ community. Where did that come from?

Aw Clare, I just mean we need to stop fighting over the election. We’ve been fighting for months and months now. It’s done and over and we can’t change it either way. We might as well get along for the next four years. :o

I think he’s open to overturning the “right” to gay “marriage”.

At least by appointing justices that don’t make legal pretzels.
 
Oh please.
Talk about broad generalizations.
Any anyway, we’re CATHOLIC.
May I remind you of the 5 Non-Negotiable’s for Catholics???
What are you even talking about?

The poster asked why these groups are afraid, and I answered. You think I would vote for Clinton? LOL
 
Really? Trump is mean?

America is not really a great place for who? America is the most generous, innovative, creative, hardworking country in the world. I am having a hard time understanding your post. Aside from a lot of opinions, it doesn’t really answer the question that was asked.

God bless America.
You are entitled to your opinion that America is the best place for these groups, I don’t agree. I think we can agree on this statement!

I believe it is fear mongering whipped up by the MSM. Think about it, how many people still think Trump said all Mexicans are rapists? There are several on this forum. That’s the media repeating a lie over and over. Same thing applies here. I’m just clarifying they have nothing to be afraid of
 
This is the first time in 8 years I feel hopeful. I feel like I can be proud of my country again. There is so much hard work ahead. We really need to pray for our country and the new president and that he will make wise decisions in regards to who he chooses for his Cabinet. God bless America!

They do have something to be afraid of. It’s just that it’s not Trump (I’m pretty sure he won’t do most of the things they are afraid of), it is usually a portion of his supporters that are the nasty and loud ones. Do people genuinely believe that all of his supporters are happy, faithful loving Christians? Seems that way here :confused:

Their fear is not all made up by media, there are legitimate reasons, as well as ‘fake’ reasons thanks to propaganda. I think it’s almost comical how people will immediately say everything is fake but then believe the biased media if it tells them what they want to hear. Yes this applies to republican and democrats.

america could definitely have a worse republican president than him, i will say that.
 
The republicans now have the Preidency, the House and the Senate. Nothing to stop them. Let the dreams come true. With power comes responsibility.

Fear of what though? What do they think will happen?

Ebola. Something to be fearful of. Tangerine-toned boor. Not so much.
 
Given that abortion is protected by a Supreme Court ruling, there is no more possibility of legislatively banning abortion than there is of banning free speech.
It seems trivial to me. Create a law stating that life begins at conception. Then, killing the unborn baby becomes illegal. Someone then works a case through the Supreme Court, stating that it is in violation of Roe v. Wade. The Supreme Court, stacked by Republican nominees, upholds the law, stating that it does not ban abortions, as the abortions are still permitted, provided the baby survives. It will then be up to the medical doctors to figure out how to make it work.

Remind, again, prior to the current wave of judicial activism and executive orders, who within this country was being persecuted? Needed to fear for their lives? Nobody. Which is the same amount of people who need to be fearful today.

They want fear, they should go face what Christians in parts of Africa, the Middle East and even India are facing: beheadings, being burned alive, et. al… What are people in America afraid of? That a photographer will be able to live his/her convictions and not be forced into taking pictures? Oh the tragedy of it!

This is flat out fear mongering.

👍

Hopefully, their fears will be realized just as patriotic, practicing Catholics have seen their fears become politically and culturally realized. Religious liberty officially was lost in the last eight years by judicial activism almost the equal of the modern discovery of the Constitutional right of mothers to kill their unborn children.

If my prayers are answered, new Supreme Court Justices will allow the pendulum to swing back to religiously tolerant health care and education, as well as to pre-Roe v. Wade and Obergefell v. Hodges Constitutionality.
 
“Donald wins: ‘Deplorables’ trump Clinton”

That’s how I feel about it. 😦

I could have told Hillary about how racist Wisconsin is, having experienced it myself, and that the so-called white elite women there (whom she depended on for votes) are as racist as the white working class people.

As for the rust belt, Michael Moore (who came from the working class there and knows the people well) has a good explanation of how they went for Trump:
msn.com/en-us/movies/news/read-michael-moores-full-trumpland-explanation-for-how-trump-won/ar-AAk6BxT?li=BBmkt5R&ocid=spartandhp#image=1

Not sure if those who voted for Trump want to have Social Security and Medicare cut or reduced (in exchange for tax breaks mostly for the rich), but they’d probably agree with having Medicaid and other programs for the poor cut out, and no help for the poor to go to college.

And of course sending undocumented parents back to Mexico, so their US-born children and spouses (who are unable to work now bec they have to care for the kids) go onto welfare…which will be cut, of course. So no problem to the elites classes in that department, since they’ll be getting tax breaks.

Is this satire?
 
Do you think he will really try and ban abortion? If he does it will be among history’s greatest moments. The extermination of the unborn has gotten to a much worse point than what Hitler done to the Jews and yet we remind ourselves of this history to try and not to repeat it. Ironically we have and gotten better at murder, this to me therefore is the single biggest issue when it comes to the presidential campaign, whoever saves the unborn and strives for the family saves the disintegration of the west
That’s the only silver lining to this election is that in some way – by sticks or by carrots – he reduces abortion.

And one way he plans to do it is by ignoring serious environmental harms, like climate change, and promoting dirty fuels that kill people locally in many ways and thru climate change, so that by annihilating a large chunk of humanity over the decades and centuries (by our actions now and failing to address the issues before reaching points of no return) we can effectively reduce abortion. No people, no abortions!!
 
Is this satire?
Perhaps hyperbole. I am extremely sad that people chose death to the world through climate change and other serious environmental problems. That is sad and very tragic.

We can only hope now that at least Trump will do something to reduce abortion. But it is sad the future generations will be suffering for decades, centuries, and millennia due to us pushing the life-hospitable climate over the edge into a new death regime. There is really hardly any time to turn this “Titanic” to avoid such ongoing tragedy due to our follies, environmental denialism, and recklessness. Clinton may have been able to do something to soften it; Bernie would have been better. And as Bernie says, Trump will be an unmitigated disaster.

Did you not read my post? They are afraid of the increase of harassment by his supporters. Pretending to be blind to it is just…ugh. Aren’t the posters here whining about the persecution of Christians by the liberals not too long ago? Anyway, I digress…

Unsubscribing. I forgot how Americans are like lol 😊
