    I did.

    The article was about unaccompanied minors.

    This thread was about Family Separation. A policy of separating children who came with their family from their family with the explicitly stated purpose of creating psychological trauma.

    Did you not read the article?

    Or can you can not grasp the difference?

    Or does your hyper conservative sect of ‘Christianity’ teach you that is okay to give false witness as long as it is to ‘own the libs’?

    And how do you feel about the treatment they are currently getting. You ok with it? You seem ok with it.

    Care to talk about the actual treatment they are currently getting?

    You seem very concerned about the treatment of these children.

    Now.

    Most of us have been horrified by it for 4 years.

    But, now, you want to be concerned.

    Pardon me, but fuck you and your religion that would allow you to stand in the sidelines for 3.5 years, then when a political opponent takes office, you start bitching.

    Fuck you and the horse you rode in on.

    We’ll circle back to that.

    I am genuinely curious. When you stated that Biden was behaving the same as Trump did you not understand the facts? That one policy is about intentionally creating psychological trauma in children and the other is about doing due diligence when it comes to handing children over so that some dude can’t just show up and say ‘Those are my nieces, give them to me.’

    Were you actually unable to grasp the difference? Or did you decide the truth didn’t matter as long as you were lying to ‘own the libs’?

    @GhostEcho is apparently in no real hurry to address the points I raised with him almost two months ago:

    @GhostEcho: why the sudden interest in this topic, after two-years of near-silence on the issue?

    @GhostEcho’s Jesus cares more about Owning The Libs than he does Loving the Little Children.

    Thus GE does as well.

    Didn’t he vote in the poll under his old account name? Sean the Puritan is a Yes vote. @GhostEcho fully supports children being ripped from their families in order to cause maximum psychological trauma, just as his Jesus would have done.

    Frederick Douglass speaks THE TRUTH! Is that why protesters tore down his statue this summer? Asking for a friend.

    What evidence do you have it was protestors that took it down (and moved it 50ft)?

    The articles I’ve read said they had no leads but suspected it was right wingers upset over slavers having their statues pulled down.

    But maybe you have new info.

    Police never found the vandals. And I guess you read different articles. That said the statue was messed with before 2020, back in 2018. *

    "Members of the community were upset by the incident with some saying they believe the act was committed by a person or persons who are against the Black Lives Matter movement.

    "I was sad someone would have such hatred," said Michele Saccente, as she showed a photo of herself next to the statue, taken just three days before it was vandalized.

    The destruction of the statue gained national attention and even a reaction from President Donald Trump.

    "I definitely felt sad," said Kim. "There was really no place to put that sadness."

    Police never found the vandals. The destruction took place on the 168th anniversary of one of Douglass’ most powerful speeches, "What to the Slave is the Fourth of July," which argued against the continued existence of slavery."

    * It's not the first time a Frederick Douglass statue has been vandalized in Rochester. Two St. John Fisher students were arrested for damaging a Douglass statue at Tracy and Alexander streets in 2018. John Boedicker and Charles Milks tried to steal another Douglass statue after a night of drinking. As part of their punishment, they had to visit all of the similarly-named statues in the city. Despite repaying their debt for their crime, both asked organizers to assist in the placement.

    Biden could take a piss all over these kids at the border and some wordforge members would rush to his defense saying "so what? Trump would have shit on them!" :shakefist:

    “Biden is apparently in no real hurry to act any differently than Trump did with respect to migrant children.”

    True. You didn’t say they were behaving the same, you said he wasn’t not acting differently.

    Ya got me!

    I concede.

    I didn't prove your point! It said they never found the vandals. Your assumption that it's "right wingers" is pure speculation & assumption. Granted 2018? That's a different story. But in 2020 they never found the vandals.

    You proved my point that there was zero evidence left wing/BLM protesters taking the statue down and a history of your boys attacking Frederick Douglas statues.

    So again, thank you.

    "in no real hurry to act any differently" ≠ "not acting any differently at all"

    You KNOW THIS. Or at least, you should know this. Every time I try to give you the benefit of the doubt, you prove that I am better off assuming that you're just a standard LibTroll.

    I've was on record pages and pages ago that the treatment of migrant children (yes, even when Trump was in office) was HORRIBLE. It's one of the biggest black marks on his whole Presidency.

    I was expecting much, much better from Biden on this topic at least, and instead? Hardly any real change at all. And what's worse, there doesn't even seem to be any movement to improve the situation.

    Then you'll have to explain the difference to me.

    Either way, it matters not. We all know GhostEcho is a racist, a misogynist, and supports killing of anyone not white and christian.

    If there is a difference, it is extremely small and merely a slight matter of nuance. Both of them mean two people are acting the same way.

    The fact that you can’t respond to @Asyncritus’s post but can only ad hom me shows everyone who is the dishonest one.

    You should go read and pray on Psalm 120 tonight.

    Tell us, GhostEcho, what are your opinions of the following

    A) Separating children from their parents when families come to the US seeking asylum?
    B) Providing parentless children who come to the US, whether attempting to enter illegally or seeking asylum, a warm/cool place to stay, food, and access to clean water and personal hygiene sundries?
