Rapper Cardi B tweeted: “They looting in Minnesota and as much as I don’t like this type of violence it is what it is. Too much peaceful marches, too much trending hashtags and NO SOLUTIONS! The people are left with NO CHOICE.”

Yo, Rapper Cardi B (if that's your REAL name), it's not that they have no choice, it's that they have chosen poorly.

Haven't you noticed that all these police brutality cases have taken place in cities run by demonicRATS? In states run by demonicRATS. And the cops involved are protected by the Police Unions that endorse those demonicRATS.

Also, use some of your wealth to get an education. It should be "They are looting", not "They looting".

What a pantload of gobbledegook, and just what a Phd would come up with.

Do I get to defend myself? In doing so, I can ensure my family’s well-being. I cannot ensure their well-being if I am dead or injured. So this dope would have me eschew defending myself?

No thanks.

Jesus: “If you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.” (Luke 22:36)

The fact is nobody actually gives a sh*t about “George.” He has become a convenient symbol and latest excuse for rioting, looting and claiming you’re being oppressed by The White Man.

Notice how quickly they dropped The Jogger narrative? That’s because it became clear pretty quickly he was in fact casing out houses to burglarize and was not just an innocent jogger.

Those who somehow equate Christ’s cleansing of the Temple with rioting, violence or whatever are basterdizing Holy Writ. Remember where Christ was when he “cleansed” the Temple. He wasn’t running through the streets destroying property of others...he wasn’t looting shops in the market...and he wasn’t burning down houses or shops. What was he doing? He was defending his own house. That’s a big difference. A huge difference. What did Jesus do and say? Well for one...he did not use the whip on people. He used the whip on the sheep and cattle. In John 2 it says....starting in verse 14... And he found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting: and he made a scourge of cords, and cast all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; (not people) and he poured out the changers’ money, and overthrew their tables;...So he used the whip on animals, not people. He did overturn the money changers’ tables and poured out their coins...but he did not attack people. And as to his right to do so... it was his house. Verse 16 says...and to them that sold the doves he said, Take these things hence; make not my Father’s house a house of merchandise. Since Christ was both Father and Son...it was his house. So when you encounter those who try to use this as justification for the rioting, looting and destruction...remind them that Christ was just defending his house...his father’s house. These two are not the same. There is no comparison.

And as to the argument that Jesus told his disciples to sell a cloak and buy a sword...taken in context...Jesus was telling them to arm themselves for self defense. They were going out on the road with a money. They were doing ministry work and the sword(s) were for protection. Not aggression.

Anyway...
