No. You told lies about Shariah Law and you were called out, No one twisted anything.

Being proven wrong is not bullying. Facts matter.

For the second time, my Sharia law comment was in response to a particular post. That is all. Nothing more. So quit trying to twist and take my comment out of context.

15

She is publicising it, not organising it. The NRA's response to the protest was to post a pic on twitter of an AR15.

I'll take the AR 15 over Sharia law any day.

That's the order... First post, response...


ETA sorry to bump but clearly needs refreshed

Honesty, the NRA response to child protesters by posting a pic of a AR15 seemed like a threat to me. Can you get your head around that?

You made several posts and some with links regarding sharia law. It wasnt a comment, it was multiple.

Nothing out of context, just ignorant statements about sharia law void of any facts.

So much! A very callous, threatening response to something they needn't discuss at all! They didn't have to tweet anything!

But left that one out. I can't imagine why. Can you?

In that case i wouldn't say that SL is a lie, but some perceive it as a threat and that has also happened in Australia. And i really think it's way O/T in regard to the debate, IMO.

 

[EuTuCroquet?]

Its 100% a lie, and a disservice to this country to spread it.

Correct. It's been disproven various and sundry ways at this point, imho.

Yes. Thank you.

A few more kids dead does not seem to matter much.

"Columbine" author Dave Cullen inspired by student rallies for gun reform

Cullen added: "The word empowering is maybe a little overused ... but it really has been empowering ... I'm talking to 11 and 12-year-old kids and I think they've gotten the message that you don't have to wait for your parents to tell you what to do or your teacher tells you what to do ... when you know it's the right thing and something ought to be happening ... just do it. They're just taking control of their lives and just doing it. It's kind of amazing to see."

They will budge on gun control over our dead children's bodies

Women’s March under fire over links to Nation of Islam’s Louis Farrakhan, anti-Semitism

Progressives who have never quite cut the cord with Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan despite his anti-Semitic rants are suddenly paying the price, starting with the Women’s March leaders.

Calls for Women’s March president Tamika D. Mallory to resign erupted after she attended a Feb. 25 speech in Chicago at which Mr. Farrakhan railed against “the Satanic Jew,” saying “powerful Jews are my enemy” while singling her out for recognition.

“The Women’s March statement is too little, too late. Three of its leaders have a history of associating with and supporting Farrakhan,” said Mr. Jacobson. “These connections have been public, yet the Women’s March remained silent.”

The flap has left the group reeling as it attempts to keep the focus on its next big event, the March 14 National School Walkout, a protest for tougher gun-control laws sparked by last month’s Parkland shooting.

Bump.

"A lot of adults here think that kids are here to take the day off and skip school, but it's really not about that," said Viqueria, "it's about kids wanting to go to school and learn without getting shot."

 

[Jennifer17]

Yes. Thank you.

Thank you? You left out the first response of yours and you are thanking people for drawing to your attention?

'Enough is Enough': Bay Area Students Speak Up Against Gun Violence During Walkouts

https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/Bay-Area-Students-Schools-Walkouts-Gun-Violence-476801093.html

"We are unified and we want gun control now," Daly said.

Across the hill in Pleasanton, hundreds of students at Foothill High School walked out of class at 9:55 a.m. and assembled minutes later for a peaceful and calm rally, chanting "Never Again!" at times.

"People need to focus on the safety of their kids, not really the Second Amendment," student Darina Wolfe said. "We shouldn't be afraid to go to school."

Anyone can go back and follow the timeline of comments to see what was said and when, so I'll just leave it there. I'm trying to follow the rules and not make it a nightmare for Tricia.
