Non Footy Chat Thread II

[strider]

I'm surprised that the Council didn't act on the complaints.
They could have easily enforced him to cut back the numbers to the allowed limit, I would have thought.

Anyway, it's much more preferable talking about chicken shit than Trump, although the two go hand in hand tbh.

I was about to say, I dont know what all this chicken talk is doing in the Trump thread

Or a soggy saoist...

That's quite good. The Sao Circle fits well with the Taoist philosophy.

Correct, and therefore Trump has not issued a muslim ban as Gronk asserts.

Yep, nothing to see here. So far it's Trump's Team, Fox USA, Pauline Hanson and you that think there is no #muslimban.

Meanwhile, the rest of the world are not so confident and think that selectively omitting some countries is dodgy.

That's MJ's point FFS if it were a muslim ban, he'd have banned those other countries too

At the moment it's a #selectedcountriesthathavepredominantlymuslimpopulationban

 

[Gronk]

How is it a #muslimban when 49 Muslim majority countries, including Indonesia, the largest Muslim nation in the world, aren't facing restrictions of entry?

And I don't hear anyone whinging about the 14 Muslim nations that deny entry to anyone holding an Israeli passport...

Nor do I hear anyone complaining about how Obama is actually responsible for the law regarding these specific countries...

Nor how Obama put restrictions on Iraqi entries in 2011...

Weird...I must have just missed that part on the news...

Did somebody mention Indonesia ?

Except maybe Indonesia (see above).

India has a huge Muslim population too.

In India, Trump's Business Interests Raise Anticipation And Questions

It's not a ban. Oh wait.

it's a claytons ban he knows he can't just ban an entire religion so he starts with a small list and no doubt will add a few more countries later on

I have no doubt this is only the beginning and that he will look to include other muslim countries in his ban. I am having fun playing semantics with Gronk although he seems to have missed the point a few times now.

I don't really understand what he has against claytons.

Yes you are playing semantics (spin). I've not missed any point really. You say it's not a muslim ban and I agreed with you - it's been dressed up to deceive, but most people can see whats really underneath the makeup.

Freddie Mercury?

 

[Gronk]

Bad luck Melbourne Cup.

Equals Dubai World Cup as No.1 purse.

 

[Twizzle]

I don't agree with a lot of his policy positions but isn't he just doing what he told the American people he would do prior to getting elected? Why is there so much mock outrage?

I would think the outrage is coming from the idiots who didn't vote and are now wishing that they did.

And Gronk

 

[84 Baby]

Well then Gronk should have voted for Hillary

 

[Gronk]

Doh !

 

[Hollywood Jesus]

I wouldn't put it past Gronk to vote for Hillary. Even after #pizzagate exposes her and her ilk he'll still find ways to support her. He is, after all, the quintessential cliched braindead "useful idiot".

I mean he's calling a country-based ban a Muslim ban, without touching what Obama did, at all.
