Pope Francis delivered a message in a Saturday meeting with Bishops in Mexico City, one only slightly veiled in papal innuendo. It involved one of his favorite topics, the ongoing invasion and pillaging of America, what he calls migration or immigration or as he did in this address, diaspora. Disapora is defined as “a scattered population whose origin lies within a smaller geographic locale. Diaspora can also refer to the movement of the population from its original homeland.” His comments incorporate both definitions, the squatters in the north and the ongoing population relocation. It’s an invasion, but Francis understands the use of that word might cause problems.
He told the Bishops, “Never cease to remind your people of how powerful their ancient roots are, roots which have allowed a vibrant Christian synthesis of human, cultural and spiritual unity which was forged here. Remember that the wings of your people have spread on various occasions to rise above changing situations. Protect the memory of the long journey undertaken so far – be deuteronomical – and know how to inspire the hope of attaining new heights because the future will bear a land ‘rich in fruit’ even if it involves considerable challenges.”
Whether he’s talking about roots in Mexico or roots in the Aztlan many Mexicans like to pretend the Americans stole from them, it remains unclear. The “wings of your people” sounds like a reference to flying north, particularly as his next sentence references a long journey yet to be completed. There is a lot of fruit in America; many of their countrymen use it as a ticket to permanent illegal residence.
Francis barely stopped short of saying “Go invade America,” and he’s still got that big border event planned for his last day. It’s the grand finale, the reason he came back so quickly having just been in the neighborhood agitating in America in September. He’s going to stir the pot a little, stimulate the invasion prior to the election to try to shift those numbers more in favor of the open borders crowd.
Francis said, “Allow me a final word to convey the appreciation of the Pope for everything you are doing to confront the challenge of our age: migration. There are millions of sons and daughters of the Church who today live in the diaspora or who are in transit, journeying to the north in search of new opportunities. Many of them have left behind their roots in order to brave the future, even in clandestine conditions which involve so many risks; they do this to seek the ‘green light’ which they regard as hope. So many families are separated; and integration into a supposedly ‘promised land’ is not always as easy as some believe.”
He continued, “Brothers, may your hearts be capable of following these men and women and reaching them beyond the borders. Strengthen the communion with your brothers of the North American episcopate,” adding, “I ask you to witness together that the Church is the custodian of a unifying vision of humanity and that she cannot consent to being reduced to a mere human ‘resource.‘”
That’s particularly true when they’ve got the resources of the United States to plunder. Why would the Pope sell his art collection when he can just send over a few million Mexicans?
He referenced that point in his closing, saying, “Your efforts will not be in vain when your dioceses show care by pouring balm on the injured feet of those who walk through your territories, sharing with them the resources collected through the sacrifices of many.”
It does seem more than just a bit hypocritical that the Pope is urging his followers to break the laws of a sovereign nation, but his is not a religious mission. It’s a mission to acquire wealth and power, and attacking the United States is a critical component, as is our ultimate demise.

There are a couple of Facebook flaws most social media users probably haven’t noticed, and the underlying stipulations have proven to be a grave disadvantage for Christians. In a nutshell, the problem centers around freedom of speech, or better yet the lack thereof, and the “fine print” that prohibits opinions where certain religious groups are concerned.
According to a report published by QPolitical, a Texas church recently became the center of controversy after being targeted on Facebook by what appears to be a hate group. Based on the meticulous social networking strategy used to troll the church’s Facebook page, it’s probably safe to say those involved definitely did their homework and are well aware of how the glaring flaw would work to their advantage.
So, here’s how it works:
With a Facebook “Like” page, you don’t have the ability to ban a person from the page unless they’ve actually liked the page. And unfortunately, clicking “like” on a single post still doesn’t give the page owner the ability to block the user. The only option available would be to change the page settings, but in most cases, like pages are public in an effort to reach the masses. So, this particular flaw is kind of like a “Catch 22.”
This small flaw has allowed the hate group to troll the church’s page. It has been reported that members of the hate group have strategically liked comments made by church goers and reviews about the church so the church would appear on their feed.
The photo below shows how the trolling began:
With time, the hate group began popping up more frequently, and the trolling escalated to the point where the church’s webmaster contacted Facebook for assistance with reporting the group. However, that didn’t exactly work in the church’s favor.
Here’s how Facebook responded:
You should definitely try to continue reporting it until hopefully the other team is able to see it and realize that is should be shut down. However, as I mentioned on the phone, I did verify that there is no contact that I have and nothing else I’m able to offer on my end. If the Facebook policy team believes that it is a personal opinion, they may not take it down. I do believe that due to the language though, there is a chance they would still take it down and I hope that is the case.
Needless to say, the complaint didn’t lead to any type of resolution. The unsettling harassment reportedly influenced the webmaster’s own social media investigation, and what he uncovered raises many more questions. It appears as if the owner of the hate group page may actually be a Facebook employee, which would explain the extensive knowledge of Facebook protocol. The group normally posts messages relative to Facebook.
The Christian-bashing post raises questions about those who support the posts, and the webmaster also decided to bring this to the social network’s attention. “I have tried to block the page from our page. Facebook does not give pages the ability block other pages. Facebook needs to implement this feature ASAP. At this point, I am beginning to wonder if the reason Facebook does not do something about this is because it is Facebook employees engaged in this horrible activities.”
But, unfortunately, the concerns were belittled yet again. “Again, I wish there was more I was able to do for you and don’t want to see you leave Facebook advertising due to one page, that is possibly attempting to do that anyway. You should definitely try to continue reporting it until hopefully the other team is able to see it and realize that is should be shut down.”
The debacle only confirms speculation regarding the blatant disrespect towards Christians. When offensive posts target Christians, the network considers it “free speech.” But, there’s another group you aren’t allowed to offend on Facebook or your posts will be removed almost immediately — ISIS. Paul Golding posted a mocking meme with an image of toilet paper with the ISIS symbol. Since the network found the post highly offensive, Golding, who operates the British First page, was kicked out of his Facebook account and forced to review the details of the post because it was a Community Standards’ violation.

Free speech practices with double standards leave Christians between a rock and a hard place on the social network. According to Facebook’s “Hate Speech” policy, organizations that promote hatred will not be tolerated on the social network. However, since there are loopholes regarding how the hatred is presented, there are ways to get away with  it.

What this action says is that it’s okay to offend Christians, but posts that offend hate groups and terrorists will not be tolerated. The blatant disregard in itself is offensive. According to Breitbart, Facebook apologized to Golding and British First for removing the mocking photo, but insisted that he should “tone down the sarcasm” if he opted to post photos in similar kind in the future. However, the fact still stands. Preventive measures were taken in an effort not to offend a hate group. Asking Golding to monitor his level of sarcasm is a subliminal request for him to cease from offending ISIS — a group widely known for beheading Christians.
Everyone should be treated equally and no person or group should be allowed to slip between the cracks just because the presentation of their offensive posts appears permissible. Also, Facebook’s harassment policy may need to be updated because this one flaw definitely gives trolls the ability to lurk without being held accountable for their actions.

A gut wrenching and nauseating video has been released showing what the last minutes of a cow’s life was like while in the hands of Muslims. Proving that “halal” killings are actually torture and Muslims are the barbaric murderers that carry it out, the clip is not for the faint of heart.
Although it can’t be said for certain, a few comments suggest that the incident took place in Egypt, but as previously noted, this cannot be verified. However, the torturous thugs start their so-called “holy” process by tying the front leg of the cow to make sure it can’t run away.
**WARNING: This video is EXTREMELY graphic in nature.**
Too bad for the idiots, they start to bind the bovine creature while its front legs are still atop the truck bed that it was driven into town in. When they try to pull the cow’s front legs down, things don’t exactly go as plan when it becomes frightened.
Eventually, the cow breaks free from its restraint and hops down, but understandably, it tries to flee from the men whose intent had become rather clear at this point. This is when things take a turn, and the Muslims expose themselves as the heartless people they are.
As the cow tried to escape certain death, one Muslim runs up behind it and “hamstrings” it. For those who don’t exactly knows what this is, hamstringing something consists of severing the tendons along the back of the leg thereby rendering it unable to walk. As can be seen in the video, the cow is brutally hamstrung without any form of pain medication and hops around while suffering in a desperate attempt to escape at any cost.
From there, the pack of Islamists continue to chase down the visibly distressed cow that is in agonizing pain at this point before attempting to slit it’s throat. However, as their barbarism continues, death does not come quick to the unfortunate creature.
In fact, the knife is slid across the animal’s throat a handful of times, all the while the cow can literally be heard screaming in agony. Once enough blood is drained from the cow, Muslims can be seen clapping, cheering, and laughing as their torture victim lays – still alive – on the ground, struggling to take its last few breaths.
Words cannot describe the amount of anger seeing this video made me feel. I am not naïve to say that animals weren’t put on this planet in order to serve man and that they have never suffered while being killed so that we may nourish our bodies, but this is beyond that.

Proving that the Muslims have no respect for living creatures of any kind — unless of course you’re a male Muslim, and even that’s not set in stone — this creature was killed in a way that constitutes nothing less than torture and barbarism. The fact that these animals cheered at the end, as if they just completed some great feat, is enough to make my blood boil.
You know, killing things in a “halal” manner is actually supposed to be humane, in that the animal is not supposed to know they’re about to be killed and death comes quickly – as in one clean swipe across the throat with an extremely sharp blade. Seeing how they more than likely ate the meat that was not prepared as outlined by their so-called “god,” looks like they’ll get to spend an eternity in hell – and that’s even by their standards.
Welcome to the religion of Islam, ladies and gentlemen – may the world see it for what it truly is.

Thanks to the left, there are dangerous myths and propaganda that help to disguise Islam as a religion of peace. With the islamization of Western nations, there are claims about Islam that must be squashed, and it’s time for the infidels and kafirs to rise up and put to rest those Islamic lies once and for all.
1. Islam is not a race.
As ridiculous as it is to even have to address this, there are still ignorant apologists who can’t decipher ethnicity from ideology. Islam is a religion, but just because it is a religion does not mean it isn’t inherently violent. Although liberals claim that all religions are equal, Islam is not merely an individual faith. Rooted in conquest, Islam has its own set of laws, by which it must subjugate what it believes to be “lesser faiths.” However, unlike other religions, Muslims are commanded to live by and establish an Islamic government in every nation on earth. It is the religious duty of every Muslim to physically and politically fight to overthrow democracy in order to implement biased Sharia law. Not only must Muslims live under this medieval governance, it must rule over all minorities as well.
2. “Islam means peace,” doesn’t mean what you think it means.
The word Islam actually means “submission,” but when Muslims claim that Islam is all about peace, they wholly believe what they’re saying is true — but not in the way most of us think of peace. There are 109 verses that command violence against unbelievers in order to spread Islam, but the peace Muslims are talking about is believed to happen only after Islam conquers the world. Muslim believe that as long as there are unbelievers who refuse to submit to Islam, there cannot be peace. This is called Dar al-Harb, or “house of war.” Through war, subjugation, and implementing world Sharia law, Muslims are promised that they will accomplish Dar al-Salam, or “house of peace.” So, when Muslims claim that Islam means peace, what they really mean is that if the world’s unbelievers would simply convert, die, or submit to living under Sharia, there would be world peace.
3. “Those violent scriptures only apply during times of war.” So, when is Islam at war?
As is stated in number 2, until a single Caliphate establishes Sharia law over the entire world, it is Dar al-Harb. This means that Muslims are and always have been at war with unbelievers, simply because the Quran states that those who refuse to submit are at war with Allah. This means that all those nasty scriptures that call for Muslims to “smite at their necks” and “slay the unbelievers” are in effect as we speak.
4. Muslims are allowed to lie in order to spread Islam, even denying their own faith.
Prophet Muhammad said that “war is deceit,” and Muslims have used deception ever since then to conquer and enslave. There are several instances throughout the Quran and Hadith in which Muhammad lied in order to slaughter his enemies, and even those with whom he held treaties. Muhammad taught his men to gain the trust of unbelievers in order to infiltrate their communities and overpower them. Through taqiyya, Muslims are allowed to use any type of deception at their discretion, even going as far as pretending to be an unbeliever in order to save their skin or further Islam. Perhaps this is the reason that Muslims are widely the victims of Islamic violence. It’s hard to tell who is the enemy when you’re allowed to emulate them.
5. Sorry atheists, Christians and Jews are the only minorities allowed to live under Sharia law.
As hellish of an existence it is to live under Sharia law, the “people of the book” are still allowed to live under Sharia law as long as they pay jizya and “feel themselves subdued.” This Quranic rule was implemented because Muhammad found that conquest could only bring in so much wealth. Understanding that Muslim invaders needed the innovations and labor of others, Allah made it so that his people could profit from Christians and Jews under their rule. However, atheists, Buddhists, Hindus, and any other religious minority are not given the choice of paying burdensome jizya under Islamic law. Instead, they are to be slain or forcibly converted. There’s no other option.
6. Muslims are forbidden from being your friend.
Although apologists claim it’s “islamophobic” to say that you can’t trust Muslims, the Quran is clear on how Muslims are to treat non-Muslims. Quran 5:80 states clearly that Muslims who truly befriend non-Muslims are considered infidels, and they will reside in hell with them. In short, if you want to be friends with unbelievers, you lost your salvation. So, why do Muslim sometimes cavort with non-Muslims? This all points back to taqiyya. In countries that went from democratic nations to Islamic states, non-Muslim civilians are shocked when their kind Muslim neighbors betray their friendship when the jihadists take over, selling them out as soon as they became the majority. Of course, there are certainly westernized Muslims who have non-Muslim friends, but like Allah says, you shouldn’t even consider them Islamic, for they have forfeited their souls to hell.
7. The vast majority of Muslims are, in fact, terrorists or supporters of terrorism.
Just because the majority isn’t sawing the heads off of Christians doesn’t meant they don’t support it. Sharia law is an implementation of the terrorist laws enforced by the warlord Muhammad, and as such, over 50 Muslim countries are governed by terror. In Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, and Saudi Arabia, people are legally executed for blasphemy. In Egypt, Indonesia, Palestine, Sudan, Brunei, Qatar, and Morocco, Christian churches are torched, and members are martyred for their beliefs. In Iran, Yemen, Iraq, Mauritania, Somalia, and the UAE, homosexuality is punishable by death. Even in “moderate” Muslim nations, the same sentences issued by ISIS are part of the same legal system — Sharia law. Even as a growing minority, Muslims quickly become violent and demanding in their host nation, until they are powerful enough to overtake and implement the same Sharia law in the countries they fled. Still, any Muslim who reveres the Quran supports the terror it commands. If the majority of Muslims are against terrorism, why do they demand and implement a terrorist state in every nation they populate?
8. Islamic violence has nothing to do with culture.
Although many Muslims have been “westernized” and are adopting certain un-Islamic habits, the claim that Muslims in the Middle East are victims of a backwards culture is unfounded. If this was the case, Assyrian Christians, Messianic Jews, Yezidis, Hindus, and atheist apostates would be beheading, enslaving, raping, and conquering exactly like their Muslim neighbors. But they’re not. Instead, these minorities are being led like lambs to their slaughter because of Islamic legislation consistant in every Muslim country. In the birthplace of Islam, Muslims haven’t changed much since the time of their prophet 1,400 years ago.
9. Muslim don’t have to conquer by the sword.
As successful as Muhammad was at butchering peaceful tribes and stealing their wealth and women, he proved that there are other ways to force nations to submit to Islam. Muhammad called his people to overtake through hijrah, or Islamic immigration. Either by migrating legally, illegally, or as refugees, Muslims can easily overwhelm an accepting, tolerant Western nation. Not only that, but out-populating, forcing conversion, and encouraging conversion play a major role in creating a Sharia state. Muslims are called to marry Western women and spread Islam through the fruit of their wombs. With growing generations of Muslims, a nation is much more easily swayed to adopt Sharia law. Of course, if this doesn’t work, there is always Islamic violence.
10. There is still hope for Muslims.
Muslims are leaving Islam in droves, all thanks to the brutal propaganda of groups like ISIS. Many apostates claim the moment they left Islam was when they found out what is in their Quran and Hadith. Many Muslims in Islamic countries are illiterate or uneducated. They do not own Qurans and rely on their imams to spoon-feed them information about their god and prophet. However, with the brutality committed by ISIS matched up with justifying scriptures, Muslims are finding that their religion is deeply flawed. Freedom and love are powerful ideals, so powerful that it is empowering Islamists to risk life and limb to leave their ideology behind. The more we spread this information, the more likely Muslims are to open their eyes to the warring, pedophile prophet they are called to model.

Flavia Carvalho, tattoo artist
A woman with a secret walked into a tattoo shop to ask the ink artist for a special favor. This single request soon turned into a much larger operation, which the shop owner didn’t realize she was getting in to at first — until word got out about what she did.
The customer had been at a nightclub when a man flirtatiously approached her. The woman turned down his creepy advances, which in turn caused him to violently react. He rammed a knife into the victim’s abdomen, but she miraculously survived the assault and was extensively scarred, which always served as a reminder of that terrifying ordeal. That’s when she came up with the idea to turn brutality into something beautiful.
The Brazilian woman turned to 31-year-old Flavia Carvalho, a tattoo artist in Curitiba, to make something amazing out of the mess she was left with on her body. The tattoo artist did just that, bringing the assault victim to tears that she wouldn’t have to remember the hell she endured at that nightclub each time she got dressed for the day. The woman’s reaction left a lasting impression on Carvalho, who came up with an incredible plan in that moment, which she would ultimately call A Pele de Flor (The Skin Of The Flower).
“I was suddenly struck by the idea of providing free tattoos to women who were left with scars following domestic violence or mastectomies,” the tattooist told Huffington Post. “Each tattoo would act as an instrument for empowerment and a self-esteem booster,” she explained of her deeper meaning behind offering her services to any woman who wanted it.
Scar the result of being stabbed with broken glass
Woman who was shot by a person she was in a relationship with
Victim was stabbed by a former lover
Since the start of this incredible program, Carvalho has helped cover many abused women’s scars, erasing devastating memories of their domestic abuse and replacing it with a moving reminder of the beautiful person they are. She’s covered stab wounds, where one woman was attacked with shards of glass by a man she once trusted, and a gunshot wound in another victim, whose lover wanted her dead, BuzzFeed reported.
The abuser or the cancer, in some cases, tried to beat every ounce of self-worth out of these women, but this caring tattoo artist has given it back in her own incredibly creative way.

Absurdly Driven looks at the world of business with a skeptical eye and a firmly rooted tongue in cheek.

You know how it begins.
You wander into your office one day, your staff seem to be wafting around as if someone’s slipped Diazepam into the water-cooler and you think you must do something about it.
You don’t have a clue what to do. You’re too busy thinking about the value of your stock or the strange evening you just spent with a couple of salespeople from Wichita, Kansas.
So you go to the one person who always knows — your HR director. She says: “We need a morale-boosting exercise.”
The descent is now complete.
Soon, the staff will get a memo entitled: “Morale-Boosting Day Out.” Before they know it, before they can get out of it, they’re transported to some national park, rugged wilderness or former drug rehabilitation clinic for a day of soul-baring and soul-sharing.
Please beware the limits of these things. Just this week, the United States Military Academy at West Point held its annual spirit-raising morale booster: a pillow fight.
There’s nothing that says more clearly that you are a little more grown up, a little readier to face the troubled world and its issues than to grab a pillow and bash someone else over the head with it. Especially if you happen to be a soldier.
As the New York Times reports, the September 2015 West Point Pillow Fight got out of hand.
30 cadets ended up needing medical treatment. 24 of them had concussions. There were broken limbs and ribs. There was at least one dislocated shoulder. Yes, this was even worse than any given Sunday in the NFL.
Cadets had shoved weapons and other firm objects inside the pillow cases, because presumably this is an effective fighting tactic when your boots are on foreign ground.
You’ll immediately mutter that your own morale-boosting days never involve injuries — unless they’re caused by excesses of tequila. Please reconsider.
The biggest problem with morale-boosting events is that everyone knows they’re supposed to be having their morale boosted. Immediately, then, their psyches are primed for a peculiar sort of battle.
You want to be ra-ra because you’re supposed to be. However, this might also be your one chance to show those in high-up places that you’re a very fine battler yourself.
Metaphorically, you put (psychological) weapons inside the pillow case of your soft, lovely personality. You play team-bonding games (you have to adore the psyche of those who invented these things) while at the same time showing your mettle consists of metal.
This is all especially dangerous when your morale-boosting day involves Paintball.
Rarely has there been a creation that more openly exposes the essential dark ruthlessness that’s buried within humans.
Those who might seem meek, mild and even pot-addled suddenly display a fervor for the kill that would frighten an untamed Rottweiler.
Worse, the machinatory instincts that can unfold might be disturbing in the extreme.
This raw expression of human innards isn’t just confined to aggressive activities such as Paintball.
You can even see them if your morale-boosting day is a company picnic. Once the ouzo-in-a-box begins to flow, the inhibitions that are essential for a smooth-running office are cast aside like underwear at an orgy.
You’ll see camps forming, alliances being broken and new alliance being created.
Someone will come out bloodied. Someone will emerge with their preconceptions disabused and their corporate status suddenly at risk.
These psychological concussions can take weeks to heal.
So if you want to avoid dislocated egos, broken hopes, fractured expectations and a whole heap of new injuries for you (or, rather, your brilliant HR director) to deal with, then think carefully about how to boost morale.
Stick to parties and concert tickets. Stick to simple events that allow people to be whoever they feel like being without knowing that they’re there because their morale level has been deemed low.
And the best way to boost morale? Just manage people well, so that they never lose their morale in the first place.

The marriage debate has heated up again due to the actions of Kim Davis, the clerk of court in Kentucky who has refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples. Davis has cited God’s authority and that she could not sign these licenses since it goes against her religious beliefs. Now that this simple act of civil disobedience has seemed to snowball, it seems others are taking a stand against this government overreach.
In a shocking twist that I am sure the liberals could not have predicted, a judge in Tennessee has turned the marriage debate upside down with his recent divorce ruling. Thomas Bumgardner, 65, and his wife, Pamela Bumgardner, 61, were married in November 2002 and have no children together, and now they are seeking to dissolve their union. The Bumgardner’s cite irreconcilable differences, and after four days of testimony, Hamilton County Chancellor Jeffrey Atherton decided that their marriage was not “irretrievably broken” and could be salvaged.
Atherton cited a few different reasons why he would not grant this divorce, but the one that stood out was when he cited the Supreme Court ruling on gay marriage.
Judge Atherton speaking in the Hamilton County Courthouse
Atherton wrote in his 16-page opinion:
“The conclusion reached by this Court is that Tennesseans have been deemed by the U.S. Supreme Court to be incompetent to define and address such keystone/central institutions such as marriage, and, thereby, at minimum, contested divorces.”
Atherton also added that the Supreme Court must now clarify “when a marriage is no longer a marriage.” Otherwise, he contends the state courts are impaired from addressing marriage and divorce litigation altogether.
In response to the unusual opinion, Regina Lambert, who represented one of the plaintiffs in the Supreme Court case, called Atherton’s ruling irrelevant. Lambert states that the Supreme Court’s decision is about marriage equality and not divorce, saying, “He is just making a statement, I just think change is hard for people.” Regardless of how Lambert feels about this particular opinion, this judge has shown the complications that must be addressed from this particular ruling.
Now that the Supreme Court judges have magically found marriage in the constitution and also redefined it, they will have to redefine when a marriage is over. It seems that liberals cannot comprehend how legalizing gay marriage has other unintended consequences, and now the rest of us must suffer from their judicial activism.

Friday, on FOX News, a group of what — at first glance — seem to be intelligent individuals were invited to discuss the #BlackLivesMatter movement and its affect on race relations in America. However, it wasn’t long after some of them began to speak that it became obvious that they were merely progressive parrots dressed up in nice clothes. When an expert on the panel took his turn to speak, he decimated the others’ justifications for supporting BLM and made them look like complete fools.
The discussion was held during a special edition of The Kelly File on Friday. Megyn Kelly has lost her favorable status with much of the conservative Republican audience, but the only relevant bearing she has on this debate is the fact that she happens to be standing in front of the panel during their lively interaction.
The real star of the show, so to speak, is Ron Martinelli, who is a Forensic Criminologist/Police Practices Expert and Certified Medical Investigator from Los Angeles, California. His stated duties include directing teams who investigate police involved death cases, and he has a huge problem with the support that some of the other panel members proclaim for the #BlackLivesMatter movement.
Martinelli started his comments with a pointed question for the panel. “Does it trouble anybody here that the people that are the most vocal — the President of the United States, the former Attorney General Eric Holder, Al Sharpton — couldn’t even pass a basic police officer background exam? Doesn’t that bother anybody?” he asked. “Doesn’t it bother you that these false narratives that this group is based upon, forensically are incorrect and have been proven to be inaccurate?”
Watch as he rips apart some of the other panel members’ supportive opinions of #BlackLivesMatter during the final 60 seconds of the clip.

Sadly, I don’t think any of the valid facts Martinelli mentioned do “bother” them. The supporters of #BlackLivesMatter would first have to admit to themselves that those facts exist before they could ever consider them, and that’s not going to happen. Progressive liberals aren’t well-known for logical thought. They will protect their narrative at all costs, even if it means lying to themselves and everyone around them — no matter the harm that comes from those lies.
Liberals typically build their arguments around “feelings” and whatever emotional response is trending at the moment. Not to say that having strong “feelings” is a negative trait, but when logical thought is completely abandoned in favor of a focus on raw emotion — minus the ideal of personal accountability — that’s when things turn ugly.
Martinelli is correct in everything he said. If the facts had been king on the mainstream news networks, if wealthy Socialists hadn’t bankrolled (ie: George Soros) the movement, if Democrats and so-called civil rights activists hadn’t seized upon the opportunity to further divide our citizenry for their own political gain — I have no doubt that we would have fewer dead cops and fewer broken lives today.
The #BlackLivesMatter movement is a dangerous monster, and it was created by the left. It was encouraged to devour any progress we had made in race relations in this country over the last several decades. The monster was born of deceit, hatred, and political ambition, and now it’s out of control.
Lives have been and will continue to be destroyed, all because of one original lie, “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot,” which was seized upon by the left for their own personal political gain. The chaos and tragedy we have witnessed over the last year will continue to grow until the Democrat masters admit their “mistake” and put their monster on a leash. Until then, the blood — all of it — will be on their hands.

Aisha, Muhammad’s favorite wife, once said that there is no more miserable a creature than a Muslim woman, while speaking about the beatings and name-calling she endured as a wife of Islam’s “perfect man.” Although this is debatable, with several scriptures in the Quran condoning brutality towards wives and children, she may have been right.
According to Sharia law, if a Muslim man is displeased with his wife, he only needs to say “I divorce you” three times in a row. Likewise, if a Muslim woman wishes to leave her husband, she must enter Sharia court, provide proof of marital misconduct, and receive the rare approval of a Muslim cleric.
When a woman named Trina became unhappy in her marriage, she passed all the necessary requirements to be granted a legal divorce from her husband. However, after the court ruled that she must stay in a room with her husband for a few days to work out their differences, they stumbled upon a nightmarish scene.
Rawa News reports that Trina’s husband took the opportunity to deliver sinister revenge upon the wife who had shamed him — by sawing off her head in a manner so brutal it shocked local authority.
Trina married her husband nearly a year ago, but when the relationship went sour, she sought a divorce from the Sharia court in Afghanistan.
“Trina got married nearly a year back and she was not happy with her marriage and she wanted to break up,” her sister told Rawa News. “She went to the court to divorce but she returned home after a month.”
Trina was initially handed over to her brother by the court, since a woman of any age must be “kept” by a male relative. The Women’s Affairs Department was responsible for helping Trina escape her husband’s custody.
However, her divorce was never granted. After a month of deliberating, tribal Sharia elders took over the case from Women’s Affairs and ordered the couple to work out their problems.
“Recently the tribal elders held a meeting and to solve the issues between Trina and her husband,” the sister explained. “They built a room in a house for them which they had to spend a few days.”
Trina’s husband saw his opportunity to commit one of the most brutal honor killings that has plagued the region.
“…after a few days my brother received a phone call. [The husband] told him that we should go there as he had killed our sister. When we got there we saw that she was beheaded,” said the sister.
Trina’s family has called on authorities to carry out justice.
“Trina’s husband killed her very brutally — no one even kills an animal like this,” one of Trina’s male relatives said.
Police have vowed to open an investigation and bring the murderer to justice, but no arrests have been made.
Because Trina was a Muslim woman and her family is Muslim, there is a better chance of a fair investigation and sentencing against her husband. However, if the victim had been a non-Muslim, it’s very likely that the Muslim murderer would get away with little reprimand.
Under Sharia law, Muslim men are allowed to testify in court. Muslim women must have at least 3 male witnesses or 6 female witnesses to testify in court. Non-Muslims must have a Muslim testify in their place, since they are considered subhuman.
Muslims attempt to convince ignorant Westerners that Sharia law is the perfect legal system for all mankind, but the truth is that it is a deviant governance that is inhumane to all mankind.
Fortunately, many states have already introduced or passed legislation that upholds our Constitution over all foreign governance, especially Sharia law. However, there are still leftist Islamo-sympathizers and jihadists who wish to implement this perversion of law. We must use our freedoms in order to defend them, before they are taken away completely.

There is a lot of debate regarding freedom of religion in our nation right now. However, there’s also a glaring double standard, which many are being silent about. They are either unaware of it, or they are choosing to ignore it.
Everyone has likely heard the name Kim Davis by now. She is the Kentucky country clerk recently jailed for refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples because it violates her religious beliefs. There’s a firestorm ensuing with both sides adamantly stating their opinion about what Kim should or shouldn’t have done. Meanwhile, she is behind bars, placed there by President Obama’s federal government, on charges of contempt.
Yet, there’s another person who also failed in her job duties due to religious principles. In contrast, few have heard her name. She isn’t being demonized by the media. No one is screaming “bigot” or telling her to hush up and do her job or get another one. Her name is Charee Stanley, and she’s a Muslim-American. These two cases provide a blatant example of a disturbing double standard within our country. Unfortunately, they aren’t the only evidence of it.
“I don’t think that I should have to choose between practicing my religion properly or earning a living. I shouldn’t have to choose between one or the other because they’re both important.”
That quote is not from Kim Davis. That quote is from Charee Stanley, a flight attendant who converted to Islam a month before taking the job where she was aware duties included serving alcohol. She refused to do her duties and serve the alcohol to passengers. She’s now suing the airline. Where’s the public lynch mob telling her she should not have accepted that position to begin with, if the duties violated her beliefs? Why isn’t she being told to just find another job? She’s not being thrown in jail. Actually, she will likely get a nice fat pay-day from all this.
So, on one side, we have a Christian county clerk opposed to same-sex unions refusing to issue marriage licences, and on the other, there’s a Muslim flight attendant opposed to serving alcohol. Both cite religious beliefs, which prevent them from doing their job, yet both are treated very differently. Kim Davis was arrested, held in contempt, and jailed. Charee Stanley is now suing the small airline, which was her employer.
Kim Davis’s mugshot
While the liberal ACLU filed the motion against Kim Davis, leading to her arrest and imprisonment after U.S. District Court Judge David Bunning decided fines were not enough, stating her “good-faith belief is simply not a viable defense,” The Michigan chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) filed a discrimination complaint against ExpressJet Airlines for allegedly failing to accommodate the Muslim flight attendant — a complaint which is being taken very seriously.
“We have informed ExpressJet of its obligation under the law to reasonably accommodate Ms. Stanley’s religious accommodation request regarding service of alcohol,” Lena Masri, staff attorney for CAIR-Michigan said in a statement. This is a much different sentiment than what’s been said about accommodating Kim Davis’s religious beliefs at her place of employment. In addition, Stanley’s job duties were known when she took her position, unlike Kim Davis, who had her responsibilities change after the Supreme Court ruling.

Many will state the difference is that one position is a public office and the other is not. This too is flawed. According to Davis’s opposition, the fact she is an elected official changes what’s expected of her, and they therefore believe she should have resigned if she could no longer comply with her duties. However, if we want to talk about the proper way to handle an elected position, let’s discuss what Kim Davis should have faced. There should have been an immediate recall election. Why didn’t her opposition do this? Because they knew she’d likely be reelected. Therefore, does this not infringe on the rights of voters to choose their county officials? The appropriate procedure was circumvented in an attempt for the liberal left to demand their way.
Kim Davis has also been chastised due to her oath of office. Yet, politicians who also take an oath, including the Commander-in-Chief, are getting away with lawlessness at every turn. This is where we see hypocrisy at its finest. The most blatant display came from The White House, which said Davis was arrested because “nobody is above the law.” This leads me to a quote from presidential hopeful Ted Cruz: “Where is the call for President Obama to resign for defying our immigration laws, our welfare reform laws, and even his own Obamacare?”
In a statement on his website, Cruz further pointed out the hypocrisy of our governing body, which has allowed for sanctuary cities, “resulting in the murder of American citizens by criminal illegal aliens welcomed by his lawlessness.” These lawless mayors are not in prison.
Why do politicians and members of other faiths receive different treatment than Kim Davis? What is the one factor on which this double standard seems to hinge? There’s one obvious variable that makes the Kim Davis case different from the others. She’s a Christian. Now, tell me again how there’s not a war raging against Christianity.

Remember when Obama tried to convince Americans and the world that the United States is not a Christian nation? A remarkable viral video is making the rounds on the Internet again, which destroys the president’s rhetoric of implying that America was not founded on Christianity and is not a Christian nation.
Stuart Shepard is the host of  Stoplight — a series of short videos — in which he addresses current issues in America from a Christian perspective. In this video titled A Walk For The President, Shepard highlights comments that Obama has made regarding the president’s personal opinion about whether the U.S. was founded on Christian ideals and whether it is a Christian nation. Shepard then presents undeniable rebuttals with examples of physical proof of how wrong Obama has been in trying to persuade Americans that we are not a Christian nation.

Shepard makes an excellent point in his assertion that no one has ever said that America has ever consisted only of Christians. The reality, however, is that our country was founded on Christian ideals and established by Christian leaders. In denying that truth, politicians and special interest groups are being dishonest about our nation’s history, and they are complicit in furthering our society’s moral decay. But, why would they promote a lie when the facts are so obvious?
It’s simple really, the politicians are pandering for the votes of citizens who don’t want to ever be held accountable for their personal choices or their less-than-moral behaviors. Typically, Christianity is the most maligned religion in America, and I believe the reason for that fact is because there are a large number of people who are afraid that Christians are right.
I believe that their “souls” know that someday they will indeed have to answer for their unrepentant actions. I believe that their subconscious understands that truth on a level that their conscious minds refuse to accept. Is there another explanation as to why atheists and other special interest groups almost exclusively attack Christians over the followers of any other religion in the United States or around the world? If there is, I can’t think of one.
My personal faith does have a lot of bearing on my analysis concerning the combative demeanor of the deniers of Christ. However, there is ample physical proof that this country was indeed founded by people who had strong Christian beliefs. Trying to obscure or negate the facts will not make them any less true.
We’ve witnessed over generations how immoral and violent our society has become in conjunction with the successful effort of those people who strive to remove God from every aspect of our public lives. Is it a coincidence? Some will argue that it is. However, those people should weigh the benefits versus the consequences for their chosen stance. If Christians are wrong, there’s no harm in it. If Atheists are wrong, they may have hell to pay, literally.

When two Michigan boys went to a playground to pass the afternoon as kids do, one wouldn’t leave alive. The victim became the perfect target for another child’s twisted desires, after the sick lessons he learned at home that led him to commit a heinous crime.
Jamarion Lawhorn, 13, had allegedly buried a knife in the sand at a park in Kentwood, waiting for a white boy to come to play. When 9-year-old Connor Verkerke arrived, he didn’t realize this teen terror’s rage-filled eyes would be the last thing he saw. Jamarion unearthed his weapon and stabbed the younger boy to death, releasing years of abuse from his parents with every drive of the knife into this young boy’s body.
Now, just over a year after the August 4, 2014 stabbing, many people are outraged over the judge’s decision on the case. Sordid details about how the murder even came to be have also been released, which should bring more charges, but won’t.
Kentwood, Michigan park where killing happened
Jamarion didn’t know his victim. He just knew he wanted to kill someone so he could get out of the house of horrors he lived in. He had endured daily severe beating by his mom and stepdad, including being whipped with an extension chord, among other dangerous devices. Jamarion claimed he was treated “like a slave,” and his home was filthy and borderline condemned, according to WOODTV.
After killing Connor, who tried to run for help after being bludgeoned but collapsed on the step of his home, Jamarion calmly called police. He immediately admitted to what he did and said he wanted to be removed from his awful life at home. His claims of the condition and heinous abuse were confirmed with extensive evidence, and his parents were each charged with abuse and neglect.

It’s now been decided this week that Jamarion will be charged as an adult, and he will receive his sentence at a later date. The child killer doesn’t seem to care, as he has already lived the life of a death sentence in his own home before now. Prison is an improvement.
his mother is not happy about him getting the adult treatment, nor is she taking responsibility for creating this monster. “It’s my son. He’s a baby. He’s charged as an adult, but ya know at the end of the day he was still born March 14th, 2002. He’s still a kid,” Anita Lawhorn, Jamarion’s mother, told Fox 17.  “I understand the severity of the case, but he’s not an adult and I know he has to be punished for his actions and I do not believe he should get an adult sentence.”
Jamarion isn’t the only killer in this case, his mother and stepfather did their part in killing the spirit this kid could have had, replacing it with hate and rage as a result of their abuse. They deserved to be charged with homicide as well. Had it not been for their deplorable parenting, Connor would be alive today, and Jamarion wouldn’t have become the young thug they created.

Remember the defiant county clerk Kim Davis who refused to issue marriage licenses to gay couples? Well she went to jail yesterday, Thursday, for her refusal, but five of her deputies agreed to issue the licenses themselves, potentially ending the church-state standoff in Rowan County, Kentucky.

U.S. District Judge David Bunning said he had no choice but to jail Kim Davis for contempt after she insisted that her "conscience will not allow" her to follow federal court rulings on gay marriage.
"God's moral law conflicts with my job duties," Davis told the judge before she was taken away by a U.S. marshal. "You can't be separated from something that's in your heart and in your soul."
Bunning offered to release Davis if she would promise not to interfere with her employees issuing marriage licenses on Friday morning. But Davis, through her attorneys, rejected that offer and chose to stay in jail.
Kim Davis is led away from federal court on Thursday in handcuffs, with shackles around her feet and waist
Gay and lesbian couples vowed to appear at the Rowan County clerk's office for the fifth time on Friday to see if the deputy clerks would keep their promises.
"We're going to the courthouse tomorrow to get our marriage license and we're very excited about that," said April Miller, who has been engaged to Karen Roberts for 11 years.
As word of Davis' jailing spread outside the federal courthouse, hundreds of people chanted and screamed, "Love wins! Love wins!" while Davis' supporters booed.

Davis' lawyer, Roger Gannam, said it was the first time in history an American citizen has been jailed for believing that marriage is a union between one man and one woman. He compared her willingness to accept imprisonment to what Martin Luther King Jr. did to advance civil rights.
"Kim Davis represents the best of us and everyone should lament and mourn the fact that her freedom has been taken away for what she believes," Gannam said.
Laura Landenwich, an attorney for the plaintiffs, rejected the comparison.
"Ms. Davis is in an unfortunate situation of her own creation. She is not a martyr. No one created a martyr today," Landenwich said, adding "she holds the keys to her jail cell."
Speaking earlier from the bench, Bunning said it would set up a "slippery slope" to allow an individual's ideas to supersede the courts' authority.
"Her good faith belief is simply not a viable defense," Bunning said. "I myself have genuinely held religious beliefs ... but I took an oath."
"Mrs. Davis took an oath," he added. "Oaths mean things."

Davis is represented by the Liberty Counsel, which advocates in court for religious freedom. Before she was led away, Davis said the U.S. Supreme Court ruling legalizing gay marriage nationwide conflicts with the vows she made when she became a born-again Christian.

Many supporters and even some Republican presidential candidates have rallied behind her.
"People are calling the office all the time asking to send money," she testified. "I myself have not solicited any money."
Davis said she hopes the Legislature will change Kentucky laws to find some way for her to keep her job while following her conscience. But unless the governor convenes a costly special session, they won't meet until January. "Hopefully our legislature will get something taken care of," she told the judge.
Until then, the judge said, he has no alternative but to keep her behind bars. Davis stood and thanked Bunning, pausing briefly to search the crowded courtroom for familiar faces before she was led away.

Later photos showed Davis being escorted from the courthouse in what appeared to be handcuffs with a towel draped over her hands. She was taken to the Carter County Detention Center in a white, windowless van.

It's unclear exactly how long she'll remain in jail. Davis' attorneys said the judge's order would keep her in jail indefinitely. But Bunning indicated he would revisit his decision in a week, giving the deputy clerks time to comply with his order.

"The legislative and executive branches do have the ability to make changes," Bunning said earlier in the hearing. "It's not this court's job to make changes. I don't write law."
Davis served as her mother's deputy in the clerk's office for 27 years before she was elected as a Democrat to succeed her mother in November. As an elected official, she can be removed only if the Legislature impeaches her, which is unlikely in a deeply conservative state.

By Jared Keever,
A judge in Pennsylvania gave the green light Wednesday for a 48-year-old to undergo gender-reassignment surgery after the transgender woman’s parents stepped in to try to stop it. 
Judge C. Theodore Fritsch Jr. dismissed Klaus and Ingrid Kitzler’s request for the court to appoint a legal guardian and submit Christine Kitzler to an independent medical exam, The Associated Press reports. 
Christine, who was born Christopher but identifies as female, lives in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and has been working with a Philadelphia-area surgeon in preparation for her surgery.
She was expected to go through with the procedure Tuesday until her parents drove from their home in Ohio to try and stop it.
They won a temporary injunction, but the surgeon was expected to perform the procedure Wednesday night after the judge ruled against the parents. 
“The procedure is barbaric and they want to do it tonight,” Christine’s father, Klaus, said after the ruling, according to the AP. “Why the rush? They should be ashamed of themselves.”
The parents argued that Christine was not mentally competent to consent to the surgery. 
Court papers they filed in the case said Christine suffers from mild retardation, suicidal thoughts and other medical conditions that would make the surgery too risky, KYW News reports. 
The parents’ attorney, Julia Morrow, told the judge that Christine was likely too easily swayed by the surgeon’s wishes and pointed out that she had a history of making bad decisions like allowing marijuana to be grown in her home during college.
Christine acknowledged a history of depression as well as a period of drug and alcohol abuse, but, she said, she was making the decision about the surgery with a clear mind. 
“It's barbaric to keep me this way, not to take this risk,” Christine told the AP. “Then I suffer and I go back to drinking and that's barbaric. I can't maintain being a sober man, being happy, because it hasn't happened. It can't happen. I don't have a choice.”
Testifying in court, Klaus said he was primarily concerned about his child’s health and would drop his opposition to the surgery if an independent psychiatrist deemed her fit to decide on her own. 
“I accept it, but I want to stop it,” Klaus told the judge. “I would love to have a son back who goes to church with us on Sunday mornings.”
The father reportedly used male-gender pronouns and referred to Christine as “his son” while talking on the stand. The judge asked him at one point to switch to female or gender-neutral pronouns and Klaus then reportedly switched to referring to Christine as “that person.”
Angela Giampolo, a Philadelphia gay and transgender rights advocate and attorney, represented Christine in court. She said she understood how important the surgery was to Christine. 
“Transgender individuals who are denied medical care commit suicide at a rate of 60 percent if they are denied their surgery,” Giampolo told KYW.
The judge said that while recognizing a history of depression, Christine had testified to being sober for three years and demonstrated an ability to understand her own decisions. 
Christine had earned a liberal arts degree from Ohio University, and she noted that she had identified as female as early as her teenage years. She even dressed as a woman in college and called herself "Chrissy" on her college diploma.
Christine said after the ruling that she was pleased with the judge’s decision and ready to go ahead with the Wednesday night surgery. 
“I might for die,” she told KYW. “But it’s worth dying. I would rather die than live the way I was.”
Her parents, she said, have had a daughter for a long time, they just haven’t recognized it. 
“They don’t have a son, they have a daughter and now I’ll have the parts too,” she said.

In a stunning outcome, a U.S. District Court Judge has sent a Kentucky county clerk, Kim Davis, to jail for refusing to issue marriage licenses due to her personal religious objections to gay marriage. The outrageous penalty was levied against her on Thursday, in spite of her attorney’s suggestions for compromise.
According to USA Today, the decision to send the Rowan county clerk to jail — in lieu of fines — was made by Judge David Bunning. The judge determined that Davis wouldn’t be sufficiently pressured to comply by mere monetary penalties.
Bunning agreed and said fines for Davis, who makes $80,000 a year, would not be enough to ensure that she would follow his orders. He also raised concerns that supporters, whom she said are raising money for her, would pay any fine he levied against her, hampering its force.
This nightmare for Kim Davis started back in June when the Supreme Court ruled to assert their authority over all individual states by mandating that same-sex marriage would be legal throughout the entire country. Her religious beliefs prevented her from actively condoning gay marriage by issuing licenses, so she made the decision to not issue any marriage licenses at all.

Since then, she has been sued by four couples — two gay and two straight — in an effort to force her to abandon her religious convictions instead of those couples merely traveling to the next county over to obtain their marriage licenses. Judge Bunning initially ordered that Davis or her deputies must issue the licenses, but he granted a stay on his ruling so Davis could file an appeal. Bunning’s stay expired this past Monday, and the U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals declined to renew it. When Davis reached out to the Supreme Court on Monday, the justices in Washington also refused to intervene.
Kentucky Senator Rand Paul weighed in:

Kim Davis and her attorneys have suggested several compromises to the situation — all of which were rejected. According to CNN, some of those suggested options were allowing other officials to issue marriage licenses in the county, distributing marriage licenses at the state level, or changing marriage license forms to remove Davis’ name.
However, it seems that with pressure from special interest and anti-Christian groups, the court decided Davis would either fully comply or face prison indefinitely. The Christian Post reports that Judge Bunning has indicated that Kim Davis will remain behind bars until she agrees to begin issuing marriage licenses again with no personal stipulations.
It seems clear that an example is being made of Kim Davis out of fear that more individuals in her position may decide to stand up for their own religious objections as well. She was emotional during her testimony while pleading her case in court. Her personal religious justifications weren’t enough to convince the judge, although he also claims to have deep religious beliefs.
“Her good-faith belief is simply not a viable defense,” said Bunning. “Oaths mean things.”
I’m not sure God would completely agree with him when it comes to choosing between an “oath” to man and an “oath” to God. Although Ms. Davis is saddened by the outcome in Judge Bunning’s court today, she is standing firm and has so far refused to give consent to five of her deputies to issue marriage licenses with her name attached, despite those deputies telling the court they would comply in her stead. The legality of those licenses, if issued, may be called into question later.
“To issue a marriage license which conflicts with God’s definition of marriage, with my name affixed to the certificate, would violate my conscience,” said Davis earlier this week.
“It is not a light issue for me. It is a Heaven or Hell decision. For me it is a decision of obedience. I have no animosity toward anyone and harbor no ill will. To me this has never been a gay or lesbian issue. It is about marriage and God’s Word,” Davis asserted.

There’s no telling how long Kim Davis will remain incarcerated, but one of her attorneys, Mat Staver, maintains that she wears no shackles.
“Kim Davis is being treated as a criminal because she cannot violate her conscience. While she may be behind bars for now, Kim Davis is a free woman. Her conscience remains unshackled,” Staver said in a statement. “The tragedy is that there are simple ways to accommodate her convictions. Just remove her name from the marriage licenses. That’s all she has asked from the beginning. Today’s events will escalate this debate to a new level.”
I would certainly agree that this debate will gain momentum. Kim Davis is an elected official. Shouldn’t the people in her county decide whether or not her personal beliefs coincide with theirs? Instead, we have a tiny percentage of our population ruling over our masses and forcing other people to “respect” their choices while at the same time they are refusing to respect any one else’s. There were compromises available, but they were spat upon in favor of publicly persecuting this Christian woman and trying to force her to abandon her core beliefs.
Kim Davis has now become a martyr in the Christian community, and whether her opposition realizes it or not, she’s already won.

Christians are the largest religious group in the world. Incredibly, they are also the most persecuted faith. Equally, Islam is the second largest religion on earth, and it’s followers account for the mass slaughter of more people than any other aggressors in history.
In just 1,400 years, Muslims have massacred over 270 million unbelievers for refusing to bow to Allah. At least 60 million of the slain have been Christians, and with the rise of Islamic terrorist groups, the bloodletting has only progressed.
More than 1 million Christians have fled Iraq with the resurrection of the Caliphate, and hundreds of thousands more have been exiled from Syria. Some areas have been completely cleansed of all minorities, including regions where Christians have lived peacefully for thousands of years.
As the Islamic State sweeps through the Middle East towards Northern Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, the systematic slaughter of Chrisitans has come to a peak. Now that ISIS has claimed Homs, Syria as part of their Caliphate, the Christians who remain in their homes have been warned about what will happen to them in the next 48 hours if they don’t manage to find a way out of the massive city.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reports that ISIS has announced that Christian citizens of Homs have 48 hours to pay the hefty jizya, convert, or suffer a gruesome fate.
ISIS has confiscated the IDs of Christian citizens, making a record of each person and their respected faith. If they pay jizya, a religious tax on non-Muslims for the purpose of subduing and impoverishing infidels, they are allowed to live under Sharia law. If they cannot ante up the required amount, which most cannot, they are either forced to convert or must flee for their lives.
The SOHR report explains that most of the people are going to leave after having their IDs confiscated by the new Sharia enforcers.
Homs, Syria (before ISIS conquest and after)
Because of ISIS attacks, the once thriving city lies in ruins.
Homs, once home to 1.3 million people, is now a wasteland.
To effectively drive out unwanted Christians, ISIS reportedly demolished a monastery in southeast Homs that was dedicated to helping both Christians and Muslims in Syria. The monastery of Saint Elian was seized by ISIS militants on August 6. The Muslims bulldozed the holy site, saying that the monastery cannot stand because it worships a god other than Allah.
Islam has created a following of leeches, living off of the innovations, wealth, and land of others. Arab Muslims would have no income if it wasn’t for the oil under the land they’ve conquered and the jizya they force minorities to pay.
The Islamic Prophet Muhammad modeled a life of pillaging and conquest, beginning with independent caravans and leading up to tribes around Mecca and Medina. Soon, he was squeezing the riches from nations with which he promised treaties, ambushing his allies to slaughter them or take them as slaves.
As long as there are followers of Muhammad, they will continue to do as their warlord prophet did. The only way ISIS will succeed is if our leaders perpetuate that this has nothing to do with Islam, and the masses believe them.
