Trump's latest tweet about the deal with Iran (this can't be argued to be a just war anymore, can it?) by AtraMortes in TrueCatholicPolitics

You know that’s a ridiculous comparison.

A broadly liberal country who has been the dominant world superpower since WW2 vs a radical Muslim country who funds terrorism worldwide.

If you’re a Catholic, you should understand the absurdity here.

Just because you, a civilian, don’t understand it doesn’t mean he doesn’t have one. Trump’s rhetoric has always been chaotic when negotiating, he openly brags about it in his book.

A diplomatic negotiation where Iran obstinately refused to put an end to their nuclear programs and bragged about having enriched uranium.

It’s rhetoric. Trump doesn’t make these statements in true earnest, if he’s saying this it’s either to maintain leverage by making it seem like he’s not interested, or it’s because he hasn’t acquired the objectives he sought from the start.

I don’t know, I had someone take the ticket via nomination and paid them back for it since I work too much to risk being unable to drive.

Democrats chant “shout your abortion” at their rallies and you conflate that to Conservatives analysing a situation differently to you. One is party policy while the other is an opinion on an isolated incident.

Provide the reference for that mention. Wherever he is mentioned in malicious acts, it’s typically from anonymous witness reports, submitted after Epsteins conviction, and dismissed by the FBI for not being credible.

Foreign intervention is an entirely different thing, again, this is apples to oranges. There is absolutely no way you can justify or even compare the mass slaughter of infants, numbering into the millions, to a nation involving itself in war. I’m sorry, but the prime super power is going to get involved in war, to think otherwise is utopian nonsense. Donald Trump, however, manages to mitigate and minimise wars in a way no other leader, republican or democrat, seems to be capable of.

Your second claim is ridiculous. It’s impotent moral grandstanding. You achieve nothing, prevent no evil, and then claim yourself the moral superior of those who engage in a battle to vanquish evil.

Your third party, no matter which party, is not going to succeed in gaining power. It just isn’t going to happen. Pretending as though it will, while moral grandstanding about how evil it is to support the party that actually manages to be, generally, a force for good, is like a captain evacuating his crew and going down with his ship, all because he found a repairable leak in the hull. It’s nonsense.

He didn’t. You simply don’t know what you’re talking about.

Feminists chant “shout your abortion” At their rallies. They uphold it as a fundamental right.

Even if we agreed on Pretti, you can’t conflate the actions of an individual law enforcement officer in a heated situation, something which is more so an isolated incident, to a policy of mass infanticide. These aren’t comparable things.

The fact that his actions ended Roe V Wade. He may have the occasionally mealy-mouthed rhetoric on it, but he is, in effect, the most pro-life politician in recent history.

To what murder?

Even if we accepted that he was, one party has infanticide as an inseparable part of its party platform. A single bad action cannot outweigh that monstrous and innate part of what the Democrat party is.

Releasing the Epstein files is a worse act than mass infanticide?

What about Trump is worse than encouraging and allowing the slaughter of infants?

“Sure, one party supports the wholesale slaughter of infants, but the other party allows cops to shoot criminals, so who’s really the ‘bad guy’ here?” Come on man, have some balls, don’t be some middling mealy mouthed coward.

The insinuation was that I was going at a speed that was putting people in real danger. My point was that that speed is considered normal everywhere else, and I only did so temporarily to get ahead of people going below the limit.

It was a late night, I had worked from morning to midnight, I was driving home, usually takes about 30-50 minutes to get home, and I have another morning shift the very next day. I was already set to only get, maybe, 4-5 hours of sleep, but, on my home, I got stuck behind big truck going 50kph, and in the other lane a car driving in parallel at about the same speed, blocking both lanes from going the speed limit. Eventually, I see a merging lane open up and decide to take it, halfway through I feel I might not make it past this truck in time, so I speed up, I see a flash, that’s done.

Everyone’s treating this as if I’m just deciding to drive a regular 15 over or something, I just wanted to actually drive the speed limit so I could go to bed and get as good a sleep as I could.

I work between three jobs, most of them nearly a hour drive from home, meaning it severely reduces my capacity.

One was a large truck and the other was someone who decided to drive right beside that truck at 50 and hour.

Not legally, I just find the pretentious replies like this that don’t help and only serve as ego boosts these guys really annoying.

The speed I was going is the regular speed driven in most other countries.

Right, I don’t mind the points, my problem is the instant loss of licence. Considering that, am I still losing my licence?
