    You are comparing British colony of 1692 vs Indonesia 2021.
    I agree with you - British colony in 1692 was much more barbaric than Indonesia in 2021.

    I didn't say being Paul being Gay was wrong.. just don't like his positions on women - second class citizens and all - not good for anything other than baby-making ..

    You are welcome to your position .. doesn't mean I have to like it.

    Paul never said women were "not good for anything other than baby-making".

    But you've got to admit from a simple cultural/societal standpoint "baby making" is a pretty big deal.

    I am not going to debate that water is not wet - indeed this - or something similar - is what is implied by Paul's place for women - in a nutshell .. but if you wish to nit pick .. count me out.

    Yes - it certainly is - which answers your previous question as to why Celibacy is "Unnatural"

    +190 million people VOTED in that country. It flat out outvotes the amount of people who vote in US.
    And this is what the want, without any storming of the capitol,
    without black people being handcuffed and chocked to death faced down in public by cops.

    Indeed. When black people get shot for just ignoring a cop, all the time. Multiple bullets are shot even. Also is done when they flee.
    While white people can simply attack and kill cops, and no shots get fired at that point. (Just 1 bullet was shot when some woman tried to enter some room.)
    The contrast of how the predominantly white police reacts to a black person who flees or ignores them compared to white people attack police could not be any bigger.

    Not to mention that cops also kill black people while in cuffs laying faced down, in a public display for about 9 minutes.
    That's the state sponsored murder. It's just blatantly there if you'd care for a black person's life.

    Anal sex is a big no-no in Indonesia.

    It carried a death penalty in US until Jefferson said that castration was sufficient.

    Yes, of course. That, and all the other things we were supposed to have in 2009: Muslim take-over, food riots, hyper inflation, city people raiding farms for food, FEMA concentration camps, guns taken away, voting rights taken away, brown shirt armies, DOW=500, massive unemployment, WW-3, nuclear attack on US, etc, etc.....

    I notice that there isn't a video of the "caning" in the link in the OP . Was this "caning" like the one in Saudi Arabia few years ago when there was an uproar in the west about the brutality until a video was published on the internet which showed that each whip was just a patting on the rear with the cane and the "caning" punishment was just to humiliate the ones convicted of the "crime" and not to cause physical pain.

    Here is that video of caning for insulting Islam:


    Meanwhile police in US pepper spray a handcuffed nine year old girl

    Americans would also be horrified at that if it were true. But you know it isn't.

    So which republicans again? Any actual political leaders? Or are you simply making assumptions? I haven't seen anyone in the party defend this guy. Why not take a breath here. Ask why the democrats in the police union wrote this into the tactical ops manual for the force (which they did) and then ask why the cops shouldn't follow the ROEs that their union agreed to. Then, tell us why democratic city officials approved these ROEs, and why suddenly this offends you.

    Totally making assumptions. And of course, ignoring that this is an ROE that has been written into use by the police union there and supported by the democratic leadership of the city. What is wrong with democrats these days????

    Not by me. But built into the rules of engagement that the police unions (democrats) and their city officials (democrats) approved. You seem unwilling to apply the accountability to those folks. why is that?
