But I think you and I agree that both should be handled the same way.

Absolutely. I completely agree that they should be treated the same.

But if I were to show up to Norway and just tell them I'm moving there, they would put me back on a plane and tell me to fuck off.

But if you were to show up to Norway and tell them that you were a political dissident who feared for his life due to persecution from Trump supporters, do you think they'd do the same?
 
Thing is, Marzy doesn't proclaim to be a Christian, just to be familiar with and appreciate the tenets. I presume he brought up Jesus' teachings in response to me because he knows that I profess adherence thereto.

Honestly, I have no issue with that line of discussion; I was legitimately interested in his perspective on the matter, as was I in C2's views on the topic he brought up, and would be in your views on any scriptural issue you'd choose to bring up. Always interested in honest discussion and inquiry.
Good for you.
I also, consider myself to be a Christian although, every Sunday I pray that I will be a better one.

Why?
 
Castration for the benefit of society but he gets to enjoy retirement in the lap of luxury, that's a great deterrent! :crazy:

Almost every single woman I know (including myself) has been touched in a way by men (often strangers) who think it's okay to grab and grope because they like what they see or they want to intimidate.

-I remember when I was 11, my parent's insurance agent stopped by to drop some paper work off while my parents weren't home (he was also one of the Sunday school teachers at our church). He decided to make a grab at me but I said no and wiggled away and he stopped. I knew it felt creepy but he was a trusted adult who was supposed to be a "good guy" so I just ended up super confused about it and didn't tell my parents until I was in college.

-Another time I was walking around with my friend Shannon after cheerleading practice at school. We were at the farthest corner of building away from the main office. Two football players walked by and one got a little gleam in his eye when he looked at me. He proceeded to grab my friend by the shoulders and shoved her out the locking door to the outside and then went at me. He was grabbing everything he could and then tried to tear at my clothes. My friend Shannon was frantically banging on the window and trying to get back in the door. Fortunately the guy's buddy got alarmed enough that he ran over and opened the door (he didn't want to break the Bro Code but he did let my friend in so I guess he deserves a little credit here). All 95 pounds of her she came running at him swinging and got him to back off me and he walked away. This was in the 9th grade at my junior high where I should've been safe, I was 13.

-Then another time, I was either 15 or 16, my parents and I took a vacation to Glacier National Park and decided to go to the hot springs pool. You're sitting there along the perimeter on benches that are submerged. The adult man sitting next to me starts running his hand up my leg to my crotch. I keep trying to move farther away (it was crowded so there wasn't a lot of room) and he keeps moving over as well and doing it again. Finally I just went to a completely different area of the pool. About 10 minutes later my mom came over to where I was and asked if he was touching me because after I moved he just scooted closer to my mother and started doing it to her. This scumbag's wife was sitting right on the other side of him and his kids where playing in the water about 5 feet away.

Trust me I could go on, and I can assure you these experiences are "normal" for most women, but that doesn't make it okay. These are vivid traumatic memories for me and thank God I've never been raped. But someone else decided to touch me sexually when I didn't want it and I couldn't control it. Like most women I didn't report anything to anybody. I was too afraid I'd be seen as hysterical or I was making it up or that the man would try and hurt me worse.

So, you're wrong - I see the human value in the women who were victimized by him and they deserve justice. The benefit to society is the next creep that thinks he can violate another person like that might think twice. You don't get a pass because your dozens of victims are afraid to come forward for years because of the perps' power and money and physical dominance or because he's too old. No one has the right to physically violate another person and get away with it. You're post is bull shit.
How could anyone with any empathy for their fellow human beings not know this innately? Huh? How?
 
How would people who are not from Canada or Mexico seek asylum at our border?
I imagine they could walk, take the train, take a boat, drive a car, swim, who knows?
 
I think it's fucked that some of y'all in here see a man that needs life in prison but don't SAY SHIT about the white house pussy grabber. Trump needs to be next. He has 26+ accusers one of which was a 13 year old girl.I

Same shit different gold plated toilet.
 
So where do they go while you review the application?

And what's to stop them from disappearing while we review it?
They put an ankle bracelet on them. They show up for their hearing at a 9

I think you are correct. Trump ought to get life in prison for all his wrong doings. I think some acts of treason even draw the death penalty. I'm pretty sure he's committed those acts of treason. Mueller will know the answer to that.
 
He's getting 3 to 10 years, actually. After 3 years he's eligible for parole.

It is totally fucked and hopefully Weinstein and Spacey will follow and pave the way for the Orange Offender in Chief.
 
Sorry you feel it is bull shit. You might note that I did not say jail time should not be given for these dudes.
What I did say or mean to say is that it might not be enough. I am not at all sure a character that willing pull this crap
you describe will be corrected or Rehabilitated with jail time. Although I am not against it at all. I would like the correction process
include removing the ability of the perpetrate to repeat the crime, because I really am not convinced rehabilitation is possible for all crimes, especially this crime.
But handing out jail time that exceeds the time the guy probably has, is hardly a step forward.

I think I can speak for most women (who the system fails us on the daily) that prosecution and conviction of a powerful wealthy man is a start and sure ain't a step backward. Unfortunately it looks like Weinstein, Spacey, Lauer, et al. are just going to lose their jobs but at least Cosby is off the streets.

The animosity seems to be running quite strong here Spud! Yeah for the Conviction!! I don't think anyone suggested that was a negative, for sure not a step backward. So from where is this vinegar coming?
 
Why wouldn't Norway let me in? Because they have extremely strict immigration laws.

What does that have to do with whether we treat immigrants from Mexico different than immigrants from other places?

barfo

Your president will likely pardon him as he seems to like sexual assaulters and you would probably be okay with that. He has 3 fucking years with good behaviour. Anything less would be a crime.

Because it pisses me off that all these women had to live with being horrifically violated for years and no one believed them... so he was allow to continue to victimize more women for decades(like Weinstein, Lauer, Spacey, etc.). And the response is, well it costs the taxpayers too much and he's not offending anymore because he's old. Like the attacks on all these women and the long lasting psychological damage the trauma caused don't matter. It's offensive.

...I'd like to apologize for some of the testosterone driven cavemen in this forum.
 
It's all good @yankeesince59, there has actually been some surprisingly "evolved" responses from some of the men in here and I'm holding on to that!
I'm sorry to read that evolved responses from men are surprising.
