(I'd say well short, not wide 😄) and pretty sure I'll still be ok. Now i still feel getting upset is justifiable .... and we can still argue 'appropriate response'.... but it doesn't take any rocket scientist to figure out that the statue rager's are only gonna hurt themselves (and their own 'cause'). 🤷♂️ Point taken. Or an argument could be made, if you’re gonna get the response you need why not stretch it past the point so that it lands close to to where you wanted to be in the 1st place? Provoking critical thought and deductive reasoning doesn’t have to be comfortable and a lie. bgw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But 'negotiations' are the problem... ...not the solution. You are never going to bring both sides together, when sitting on 'opposite' sides of the negotiating table... PS: In this case, where the "stretch" is NOW removing statues from museums, you know, where everyone was just told they all belong (which 'was' a certainly reasonable approach) .... ......isn't helping any. 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My intent was never to bring the sides together. Exercise in futility, the default reflex and defensive posturing is too entrenched. My intent is pointless, just like everything on this side of the forum... the dogs are barking but the dogs are not listening. bgw 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My intent was to not let good points go to waste ... when actions become retaliatory instead of reconcilary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddyr2 Posted June 24, 2020 Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Being a Catholic Latino who was born and raised in SoCal... this was incredibly sad...the first city in my state (San Deigo) and the first city in this nation (St. Augustine, FL) we founded by the Spanish. Although many of the Spanish were cruel to the natives, Fr Serra never was. He fought for them against the Spanish. He was a hero and is a Saint. I am sure he is asking our Lord to forgive those who did this. It really is a shame...what is next rename every city with Santa or St in its name because the Catholic is against same sex marriage? Los Angeles is named after the Virgin Mary, “Our Lady, Queen of THE ANGELS” the do really like the bishops statement on the matter: https://www.cacatholic.org/california-catholic-conference-issues-statement-removal-st-serra-statues-state 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like all those statues, their name conjures up images of past offenses towards the black community... BLM is now obligated to tear down the Democratic party. Cancel culture at it's best. 👌 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
