When mainstream media shows foreigners protesting obama, burning US flag its not against the american on the street but against huge conglomerates exploting the rest of the world. And they do this to their very own people ie Dakota pipeline project set to destroy environment of indigenous population. Correct me if iam wrong but all religion speak up against tyranny and oppression, this being financial. Fracking has dessimated populations in north western US but you wont see much of this on cnn as these companies own them.

We will see if trump sticks to his words, i certainly hopes so for the sake of the rest of the world, ie less war. I think his a better choice than hillary solong as he caters to the need of his own people instead of special interest groups and the lobbyist.

And God knows best.
Thanks.
I agree, and I am excited about my country for the first time in a long time. My heart beats true for the red, white and blue!

Quote North Dakota Fracking company slapped with a $2.1Million fine over pollution on Native America reservation


As I said, this is about the least polluting style of resource extraction going.

$2.1M is a tiny fine for these sort of things. BP paid out $53.8 Billion after the Gulf of Mexico spill. That's 25,000 times the size of this.

The idea that any human acyivity can ever have no impact on the rest of the world is bogus. We will always change the world around us all the time.

Fracking has not decemated any populations any where.Fracking has to be about the least environmentally damaging extractive industry ever. It has been done for at least 60 years and is only in the news because the green movement has it in its' sights.


17 million people in America who live within 1 mile of a new gas or oil rig. The knowledge of the harmful impact of fracking has been established for some time however new sites still being developed. Renderin 1000s with undrinkable water. These sites being in ppl backyard with no financial benefit for community with members relocate due to dire consequences on health
Can you find any link to anything that backs up this assertion that fracking has caused damage to drinking water in any reputable news source in numbers greater than 300 people's well being contaminated?



Sure, and please be fair in your assessment of the facts. Yes source is rt so called 'russian tv' however the facts have not been disproving by US authorities and lawsuit successful

Even with their 'advanced democracy' they are not implement God's will and law. Across all religion God's law is against abortion, homosexual marraiges now they even legalising recreational drugs. Not too mention financial system anti-poor. And once again this is common as so called Islamic govts also do not properly abide by our laws. So its religious vs evil, the God fearing vs multi corporations raping the earth.

I admire the US constitution and Lincoln, JFK who tried to implement against special interest groups. As we know from our scriptures evil does not flourish and those who oppress their very own people are bound for destruction. I too hope that Trump will cater more to the average american instead of spending on wars that have no impact on the common american citizen.
I didn't say they implement God's will and laws, but at one time they did try; now, they have gotten away from God; as a result, all the corruption came in that you speak of.

But God has kept America around for a reason. I believe in spite of its sins it still has a remnant of true believers that are following the God better than any other nation in world. Why do you think so many people want to live in America?

You are free to disagree, but that doesn't change the facts. People want to be here in America and risk their lives to come here. Those that are here and don't love this country should get out and go back to the hell they came out of. I simply say love it or leave it. No one is forcing anyone to stay here. JFK was no saint either.

All the presidents had issues some more than others, but I believe Trump is the best thing that happened to America in a long time, and he is God's choice for this country; otherwise, it wouldn't have happened that he made it to be the president elect. God is always in control.


The reason, according to generally acepted economics, that America is a popular destination for economic migrants is that it is rich and that it has a high tollerance for differences. These things go together. The freedom to make new stuff which enriches the economy is the same freedom to live a lifestyle that others dissaprove of.

Nations which have tried to be religiously pure have always been serriously poorer than they would otherwise have been.
