Leftist Western nations never take a positive stand against these loony leftists. This includes to deluded, obamaized USA!

Water cannon their asses, chain them up and throw them in the slammer for a year or so. Use force against them and show them that the people are the boss.

The Archbishop did what the Lord would have done, he turned the other cheek. I’m sure he will receive blessing for it. The trash that did this will answer to a Higher Power someday.

Makes me think of the Acts of the Apostles where they were admonished and whipped by the Sanhedrin and went forth praising God that they were considered worthy to suffer in the name of Jesus.

I disagree. This is precisely the context that Jesus talked about when he said turn the other cheek. Persecution due to faith was that context and these protesters were persecuting the Bishop due to his faith. He turned the other cheek and that was the Christ-like response.

I admire this preist endlessly. But in my fleshy mind the time for gracious acquiesence and accomodation is near an end. A Revelation 14:20 event is required soon.

Mark 15:
16 And the soldiers led him away inside the palace (that is, the praetorium); and they called together the whole battalion. 17 And they clothed him in a purple cloak, and plaiting a crown of thorns they put it on him. 18 And they began to salute him, “Hail, King of the Jews!” 19 And they struck his head with a reed, and spat upon him, and they knelt down in homage to him. 20 And when they had mocked him, they stripped him of the purple cloak, and put his own clothes on him. And they led him out to crucify him.

John 15:
18 “If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you.[c] 19 If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. 20 Remember the word that I said to you, ‘A servant[d] is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also. 21 But all this they will do to you on my account, because they do not know him who sent me. 22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. 23 He who hates me hates my Father also. 24 If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would not have sin; but now they have seen and hated both me and my Father. 25 It is to fulfil the word that is written in their law, ‘They hated me without a cause.’ 26 But when the Counselor comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness to me; 27 and you also are witnesses, because you have been with me from the beginning.

Fools trample where angels fear to tread. These women will some day be appalled and ashamed by their behavior. They’ve been deceived and are playing the part of a fool. Adding Archbishop Andre Joseph Leonard to my prayers.

I’m going to go out on a limb and say, they’re not displaying the fruits of the Spirit in Galatians 5:22. That’s just me!!

I will add him to mine also. He is a good man. These women will truly be ashamed someday. I hope for their sake they wake-up soon.

For some of them, I think that moment came when they realized the archbishop would not engage them, leaving them looking like the violent half naked savages they were. You can see from the look on some of their faces that they realized halfway in it looked really bad for their cause.

The Archbishop did the correct thing by turning the other cheek, but the civil authorities could have taken action. Either locking them up or "fire hosing" their arses.
