Trump

[Deleted Cyber]

Clinton will beat him. I don't like her and what she stands for (which changes on the direction the wind blows) but she'll beat Trump. If not, and Trump actually tries to implement his policies of mass deportations and summery executions I don't think he'll last long, alive.

It's Clinton vs Cruz Americans should fear, a bonafide christian-Talibanesque God botherer with an air of legitimacy someone like Trump could never have.

I cannot recall a more shocking set of candidates for the most powerful office in the world. I think trump will get the nomination and then start dishing the dirt on Clinton. It will become a mud slinging free for all where no-one wins and that will only be good for Trump whose supporters already are blind to any xenophobia or racism. If Trump wins his close protection team will be the busiest of any president.

There is no absolute guarantee that Trump will get the republican nomination. I can see an "anyone but Trump" candidate and campaign eventually. Plus I wouldn't rule out a third runner in November independent from the two parties.

Eventually? It's already happened.

Not within the party has it? I thought Rubio and Cruz were still arguing about which of them it should be, but I am probably 24 hours behind on this.

Rubio has dropped out.

If you're a day or two behind you'll love this latest zinger from Trump. He wont be leading them of course but he reckons there will be riots if there's a brokered convention. "Problems like you've never seen before. I think bad things will happen". Remind you of anyone? Maybe that guy from Germany who had a plurality but used violence and intimidation to gain power?

Rubio, Kasich, and Cruz have (had) taken to campaigning for whichever one of them had the best chance of beating Trump in a given state. Rubio and Cruz both endorsed Kasich in Ohio, for example.

Free ride for Trump against Hillary...really can go either way..seems like usa going rasist like the rest of the world so i expect Trump to win if you go by other countries...what a bad world i live in, and thinking about my son..maybe we book a mars planet ride and get away from this bollocks world

Jesus, Fred, you don't half wet your pants about this sort of thing. The US has always been racist. This isn't new or even worse than in the past.

I know, but im just sick of which way the world is coming around if you know what i mean..just murders and terrorists all over the news..north korea threatening to nuke..russia is flying very close and threating sweden in the airspace(violations, showing their bombs on the SU:s). Please forgive me for being depressed about the future Alan..

 

[BillyDee]

Russia threatening airspace is also nothing new. RAF jets are scrambled every couple of months to intercept, and have been doing so for years.
Trump is far from being the most extreme GOP candidate for a while, even if he is a massive belmer.

 

[Freddeno]

russia has threatened our airspace more this year than in the last five years i believe, our military has raised worries about this

 

[Alan]

Fred, I know your heart is in the right place on this but I firmly disagree with the notion that the world is becoming more dangerous. This is the safest era in human history, full stop.

 

[Freddeno]

i suppose you are joking, right? Be kind to explain, i guess you mean world wars and such?

Doesnt matter what you guys post, im afraid travelling because of terror acts from isis and other groups..i wouldnt go to turkey right now because of the recent bombs..i guess it is more aimed at tourism nowadays that makes me worry..and russia, north korea and the growing racism, which will get counter reactions

You are more likely to suffer harm in your own house.

There were more gun related murders in Seattle last year than the whole of the UK. I do however understand why you don't want to travel. Isis do want to end Western way of life. America has always had racist issues. Migrants are causing worries across Europe. Don't worry about Russia. Putin is the most canny leader in the world. North Korea bluster but underneath that's all it is. Isis and their acts of terror are the news at the moment. I don't go abroad any more much either. Prefer home

To suggest that the world is getting more racist is fantastically misguided. We are leagues less racist than we have ever been, however we have become much more aware of racism and so can spot it more easily. Likewise, we have much greater access to information and so we can encounter incidences of racism much more easily, despite there being less of them.

The same can be said about crime. Ask an American if they think crime is worse now that in the past; they'll more often than not say that it is. Look at the numbers, however, and you find that crime is at it's lowest in recorded history, but reporting on crime has increased exponentially.

You're more likely to be attacked by a shark whilst being struck by lightning whilst in a car accident than ever having to deal with any of the violence that you are so worried about, Fred.

Fear stands for False Evidence Appearing Real. Because of technology, the ability for the man in the street to film an incident as it happens , the way the internet can make things go viral you are right we are far far more aware of racism, oppression and intolerance than we ever were. That however does not make people less racist or intolerant. They are more aware of when to spout their views and where to spout them.For instance we have sex discrimination and equal pay laws over here plus equal opportunity lrgislation but at times its paid lip service too and difficult to prove otherwise. Britain is generally a safe country with low crime and very low Gun crime, but that doesnt mean it does not have underlying issues with regard to racism, homophobia, intolerance and sex discrimination even though awareness of all these things has greatly improved. I am lucky. I consider myself enlightened ever since I realised I just dont like people. Misanthropes rule!

Do people on this forum think that Asians or Black people in the UK are less racist than white people. I am aware that they could have experienced more racism, but do people feel white people are more racist.
Would for an example, an Asian father be classed as racist for only allowing his daughter to marry a Muslim from his country. Would a Zionest Jew be classed as racist for believing he is part of God's chosen race? but none Jews aren't God's chosen race.
I believe Britain is a very tolerant country, not perfect of course, but better than many.
