Then your side needs to grow up and be more accepting of behavior that you find offensive. It's funny how your side accepts every kind of freak's abbhorent behaviors, but you can't tolerate someone who speaks his mind because it hurts your feelings.

There has always been that dichotomy; the one thing the tolerant have a hard time tolerating is the intolerant.

Predictions on what comes next in this story?

Red Hen restaurant given some awards by people on the left
Red Hen restaurant boycotted by people on the right.

The irony of this statement is you believing no one could possibly hold Obama, or in my case, Hillary, in as much disdain as you hold Trump. It's my belief the lesser of two evils won. I guarantee you I have at least as much contempt for Hillary Clinton as you have for Donald Trump.

Assuming that's true, you should understand perfectly the reactions people continue to have toward Trump and their desire to see him leave office ASAP.

I'm like Weezer. I absolutely despise Obama, Hillary and a couple of others, but I'll be damned if I would order either them one of their employees out of my place of business. I would be as polite to them as to anyone. There is another election always on the horizon. That is where you get your chance to be heard. Friggin' hate filled losers.

That's why I say the hate is not comparable. Think of what would have to be true of the person you would refuse to serve. (That's the feelings toward Trump)

Let me reiterate, not all Muslims are terrorists, but most terrorist are Muslim. Do you agree or disagree with the accuracy of that statement?

Second, did the statement you provided suggest a permanent ban, or did it just call for a delay until we could get our **** together?


Put aside your politics and tell me what's really there, not what it is you're hoping to see.

That statement checks out fine but it needs to be emphasized that there are currently 1.6 billion Muslims in the world today. That's 23% of the global population. Islam is currently the second largest religion, but it is the fastest growing. Although many countries in the Middle East, North Africa region, where the religion originated in the 7th century, are heavily Muslim, the region is home to only about 20% of the world's Muslims. A majority of the Muslims globally (62%) live in the Asia-Pacific region, including large populations in Indonesia, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Turkey. These are countries mostly friendly to the United States. You would have a hard time finding immigrants from any country outside the western hemisphere, more well-prepared to assimilate into life in the United States than Indians.

Basically, only a tiny fraction of 1% of Muslims are radicalized. Your statement that not all Muslims are terrorists is an understatement to say the least. Banning Muslims only because of their religious faith is not only bigotry, it doesn't even make any sense. The population is too large and involves too many countries friendly to the United States where there is no threat of terrorism

We've been down this road. It's probably a good thing Hilary lost because the winner of the 2016 election was going to greatly damage their party. We were headed for rock bottom either way and in the long term, it's probably better that a republican took us there.

Rock bottom is a matter of perspective. You see Trump as rock bottom. I see Trump as saving us from rock bottom by beating Hillary. I've told you before, I have no political affiliation. I've supported Democrats in the past. My disdain for Hillary has nothing to do with her political affiliation. She is a horrible person who has done horrible things. As bad as Trump is, and I've told you before he's an arrogant prick, Hillary is worse, imo. Like I said in a previous post, I guarantee my disdain for her is at least equal to your disdain for Trump.

This restaurant incident is just one of many demonstrative examples of the extreme political division this country is facing right now.

This kind of left-wing behavior has got to stop.

So you do understand that it's the person, not politics. Good.

Nope. The point you’re trying to make is BS. For POTUS the person is the current politics for that party at least.

And of course my reaction to Hills as POTUS instead of Trump would be different. I’d probably lose my damn mind daily just like you guys do. Especially after the 8 years of BS we just came out of

There would be people you would refuse to serve. If someone who you know had mugged your wife came into your restaurant, would you just politely serve him?

It's a mental exercise. If you want to understand the level of hate required to refuse someone service, come up with your own answer as to what would be required for you to refuse someone service.

That's why so many people can't tolerate the cake baker.

Only it wasn't really a ban. I'm going by the statement you provided me. When all of this was going down, I was in a hospital, so keeping up with the news was not a priority. Going by the statement you provided, it wasn't really a ban, it was a delay. So why do you have a problem with a delay to give the government a chance to organize themselves to create a better way to process and vet those wanting to come to our country? A better question, would you be this offended by it if it were enacted by the Obama administration?

Protecting the existing citizenry should be a greater priority for the government than letting new people immigrate to the U.S., so if they delay the process to take extra care to vet those wanting to enter our country, I don't see a problem. Is there a bit of profiling going on by singling out Muslims? Yes, but as you admitted, most terrorists are Muslim. So while you see it as bigotry(most likely due to your politics), I see it as common sense.

So you're equating religion with hate?
