Take for example yesterday an ICE agent ran up to an innocent man walking his dogs, shoved him into to some bushes and stuck a gun into his face while screaming at him. Do you think Ceeboob can even remotely feel personally responsible for setting that in motion? Not a damned chance.
I don't think that ceeboo does nor should feel personally responsible for that incident, but if he is the fair-minded, loving Christian gentleman he purports to be, I would hope he at least realizes the inherent unfairness and immorality of that ICE agent's action and sympathizes with that dog walker rather than with the ICE agent.
What really gets his hackles up though is to mock a propagandist’s death, a propagandist that was keenly effective at convincing young minds that the system that is evil is actually good and that the occasional spasm of violence isn’t evil, but the price we all pay to keep the evil in place, which is actually just us tacitly enjoying the benefits of evildoers. Which makes us complicit. He just happens to enjoy it while some of us feel guilty about it.
Yes, it's just another example of the heartlessly immoral "the end justifies the means" defense.
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Ceeboo, knowing what everyone now knows about this latest Trump administration, if you had your time over again would you still vote for Trump, yes or no?
I would like to know his answer to that question myself.
Yup. Ceeboo - knowing what you now know about Trump's actions over the past two years, would you tell Ceeboo (2024) to vote for Trump?

Apparently, your damaged mind has been warped enough to find humor in this.

Surely someone should be willing to publicly take a stand against something as highly distasteful as this...........so I did.
I saw this probably not long after it was written just before logging in to check messages. Here's my comment.

You make a huge mistake by not reading this board and examining the time stamps. Had you done that, you might have noticed that hardly anyone was posting here (including myself) and the likelihood was great that no one had viewed the post you took offense to or had Everybody Wang Chung on ignore before you apparently chose to elevate yourself above others.

I'm sorry to see this, Ceebs.
