In a normal debate Trump would have been cut off and kicked out. He violated all the rules he agreed to.

Did Biden violate any rules?

I have a solution that would make the debates enjoyable. Douse them with slime each time one violates a rule or interrupts the other.

I watch a few internet debates regarding all kinds of nonsense and I have never seen anyone being kicked out.

Generally the person behaving like an ass just lose the debate because they don't have any valid arguments. Strange that Trump still won in this case.

 

[Tokolotshe]

Yeah how people want to downplay the dangers of right wing terrorism when it constitutes 53% of terrorist attacks in the USA, versus claiming that the 7% of violent protests represents the characteristics of all protests.

Since you want to quantify that, I'd like the source of those numbers. Ensure the current peaceful antifa shyte show we see in the USA is included, not some ancient stats.

Also no straw-manning please.

He did and was the first to do so.

We know you are comfortable with the partisanship. That's why no one gives a **** about how you feel about Trump's behaviour.

I’m very comfortable with treating Trump the way he treats others. No problem whatsoever. If y’all want to whine about it and blame Wallace for Trump’s awful performance be my guest, I won’t lose a minute of sleep over it.

 

[greg0205]

And we got a very partisan moderator who debated on behalf of Biden and even openly commiserated on his hatred of Trump with Biden.

What is your point?

Didn't realise you were such a sports-ball fan, Em.

I mean just look at you complaining about the ref 'cos your side lost.

You should definitely post more in the football and rugby threads. You'll fit right in.

Yet, handfuls of people have been killed recently and you have not peeped a word about it. The fact that you seem to really be focused on only one side of the extremism it just so blatant at this point, it's hard to take anything you say seriously.

Except the times I have condemned, but yeah ok.

Unlike people on the right who make up stuff to disassociate obvious right wing terrorists from the terrorist attacks they perpetrate, I have acknowledged the violence committed and condemned the responsible parties.

 

[buka001]

Hey, @buka001 .

While you wring your wrists over one side, check what happened.

Exclusive: $1 billion-plus riot damage is most expensive in insurance history

The violence after George Floyd's death is the costliest since the 1992 L.A. riots.

Yip and I condemned all violence way back when.

Trump is lucky that Animal Control didn't show up to dart and tranquilise him on Tuesday night.

This is the best summary of the debate I've seen.

Sorry. I don't play with balls. I leave that to the boys.

My sports involve a bike, water and feet pounding the road.

Edit:

Oh, and it's funny you said "my side" lost. No one won actually. But, I have to point out that "my side" is not the one calling for the cancellation of the debates.

 

[buka001]

And eventhough the FBI has stated that there is no evidence that "Antifa" are responsible for the violence, I am willing to go with the high possibility that much of the violence was perpetrated by people who identify with Antifa.

All violence begets more violence. It is not the solution.

Yeah, If you could just post where Joe said let's call the debates off, that would be great.

Yeah. Except what you saying here has become more than a trend with politics in the US, and with you. The ends don't always justify the means. All this does is empower the other side to carry on doing such behaviour. Trump is not forever. This behvaiour is going to carry forward.

But, your hypocrisy reigns. I am going to laugh at you when the day comes when the table turns.

Yeah, If you could just post where Joe said let's call the debates off, that would be great.

If you want to project onto my words, I am sure as hell going to project this into "your side".

That is not correct. By now you surely know our values and positions which is 100% consistently against violence and murder. Yet you persist to strawman and misrepresent. Just stop already. Your points are valid without resorting to this.
