Yet Democrat voters favor more Muslim migration to the USA, while Republicans oppose it. Is there any particular reason why you like increasing the amount of your political foes?

Just to emphasize that there are more threats againt womens rights than conservative muslims, even if conservative muslims are worse if we see the globe as a whole. It is a real change that womens right to abortion may be changed under Trump rule, and this will probably deteriorate women's right more than muslim immigration.

So you two would say the exact same thing if pro-Trump kids get bullied for being pro-Trump, right?

Why exactly do you think that would make a difference to me?

Kids are always gonna find a reason to bully each other, the reason so many now have used Trump to do so is because supporting him was seen as something of a taboo

50% of the country is Republican, correct? If 50% of the country was Muslim, women would have no rights. Forget abortion, that would be a pipe dream.

The article mentioned a lot of supposed name calling. There are videos of kids being beaten with fists and feet for liking Trump.

Everyone gets called names in school. When kids are beaten, that's not ok.

Because we have several people here either starting threads or posting and complaining about pro-Trump kids being bullied. Perhaps you could go in there and say the same thing.

But, if there are pro-Trump kids who are being bullied and called names, similar to what is posted in this OP, you feel the same way about that as you posted in this thread, correct?

I guess I havent seen those. I have seen where a kid was "bullied" by his parents for supporting trump and one where someone was beaten up for supporting trump. Not exactly the same thing.

Of course as to my first post most of the article isnt about bullying and it pretty halarious and the description of the bullying isnt exactly clear, "One girl said her little sister was taunted on the school bus for supporting women’s rights. "

If muslim immigration was so extreme that 50% of the population was to consist of (conservative) Muslims, that would be very much more dangerous for women's rights than Republican resistance against abortion - I agree to that. But such a number of Muslims are not realistic. And besides, USA is pretty good in integrating Muslims and other immigrants - better than France, Belgium, Sweden etc. Today, only 1% of the US population are Muslims. The prediction is 2.1% Muslims of the total population in 2050, and we have to assume that many of them are positively influenced by American values; i.e. that they become secular Muslims or de facto non-religious.

Due to the fact that America has the 3rd largest population in the world, its not necessary for Muslims to comprise 50% before the **** hits the fan.
This 1% of the population was responsible for the 2016 Orlando Massacre, the 2016 Burlington WA Massacre, the 2015 San Bernardino Massacre, plus many others.

They may not be changing policy on abortion yet, but this tiny 1% of the population is causing some spectacular atrocities.

This just in, Davey Henderson has spent the last 5 days in a safe place with cuddle blankets and a 42 member team of psychologists helping him to overcome the trauma of this event. Jimmy Wilson will be a RTTO (Registered Tater Tot Offender) for the rest of his life.

I got called names in school for liking rock music and not rap. I even knew kids that got beat up for that fact. Now I happened to go to school in a city where white kids were outnumbered 10 to 1, so I know most people can't relate.

Ideally, no one should be bullied in school. We all agree on that. We probably also agree that very few things in life work according to the ideal. Should national news outlets report everytime that someone gets called a bad name in Junior High? I don't think so.

So being opposed to aggressive violence is a bad thing to you?

Being opposed to aggressive violence positively correlates, to you, with bullies who employ aggressive violence?

What an amazingly absurd position.
