Re: Antifa ties to MSM and "progressive" political parties.

I will not be surprised when and if everything in this story happens to be true. Well, what exactly? There are no specific allegations of anything at all. Very general claims, with disclaimers that nothing has been verified, and a lot of loud shouting. If and when someone makes some specific allega...

Re: Hindus, Muslims, and Christians

Or more generally, do you want to farm out or delegate to the state the religious instruction of your children? So ... are you saying that the school system needs to actively respect the religion of the parents? And the way they choose to raise their children? Public schools should not be doing any...
