Milhouse,
My point is that the republican party’s callous attitude towards people dying shows that their attitude towards abortion has nothing to do with their aversion to Murder.
All your answers reflect the republican attitude.
Me: How many people have died in ICE custody the past 3 years?
You: No more than would be expected. No more than die anywhere else.
Me: Can we try to ensure that there are ZERO deaths ?
You: Most importantly NOBODY HAS EVEN SUGGESTED that ICE was in any way responsible for any death that occurred in its custody.
Me :That is untrue. They are responsible for every death that occurs in their custody unless they did their utmost to prevent it.
If they died because of the callous attitude that they are illegals anyway – then they are 100% responsible.
Me: How many mass murders have there been in America the past 3 years?
You: No more than is normal, given the US’s demographics. What has this got to do with politics?
ME : Everything. Again – Can we try to prevent these mass murders ? The NRA, which owns the republican party,prevents anything from being done.The same party that is anti-abortion is pro-gun. Go figure.
Me: How many refugees have we sent back to die in their own countries?
You: Genuine refugees? Almost none. But tell me why we have any obligation to take in every person who wants to come here.
Me. “Almost none” – That is completely untrue. Thousands of genuine refugees fearing for their lives have not been let in or have been sent back. The republican attitude that we have no obligation to refugees or even immigrants is disappointing , anti-Torah and was the LAW OF S’DOM. r”l.
Me: How many people would have suffered if they had lost their insurance due to removing obamacare?
You: None.
Me: LOL. ROFL.
I am not a socialist and I try to be the best Jew that I can. My allegiance is to the Torah and not to an american political party.
Neither the republicans nor the democrats follow the Torah. A Torah jew does not identify with either of them.
Hashem and his Torah care for every human being on this earth.
If you can’t vote for a democrat because of abortion, you cannot vote for a republican either.
(Also, the death penalty has proven to have killed innocent people. The american justice system is very fallible.)
SCOTUS has determined that, based on the constitution, abortion (i.e, Murder) is 100% legal in America. The constitution also allows in America the Cardinal sin of avoda zara.
We should think about those 2 things during Thanksgiving. It might lead us to act like Rav Miller Zatsal and completely repudiate Thanksgiving.
Please do not engage in Ad Hominem attacks.
