I see JB is wisely avoiding the subject that’s surely on everybody’s mind. These people should not be receiving all this press attention. I understand the entire congregation could fit into a single bus with room to spare.
One can look at it in one of two ways: (1) Someone is finally taking a stand against those pointing guns to our heads. Make no mistake, these are terrorists. They want their will imposed on us. “You do this,” they say, “and we will do whatever …kill your wives and children.” They’re now getting away with making terrorist threats. The next step will be, “If you refuse to build our mosque near ‘Ground Zero‘, we will view it as an attack against Islam and do whatever …kill your wives and children.” Oh wait, it’s already been said.
And so it’ll go on. We’ve already demonstrated our willingness to capitulate - to throw in the towel. When one of our allies was attacked on the high seas by North Korea, we did nothing about it. When Israel is threatened we do not counter that threat. In fact, we join in and pile on.
Or, (2) we can continue to ignore the issue of our seemingly limitless cowardice. We can ignore what’s happening along our southern border; we can ignore clearly stated existential threats; we can ignore our own laws to accommodate certain privileged classes; we can ignore gross fiscal mismanagement; we can ignore corruption; we can ignore or even outlaw opposing views. We can simply pretend that all is well; that everything could be far worse.
What is the media’s obsession with this preacher? Is it to deliberately stir up trouble - to incite? Is it to prove to the world that America has fallen to its knees and can‘t get up? Is it to crucify the last man who will stand up publicly and defend his nation?
They say uncertainty is our enemy. It is because of uncertainty that our economy is failing. I have a solution: Let’s pass a law against Koran burning; let’s pass a law against smoking and drinking; let’s tear down our churches and banks and build mosques in their places; let’s legalize the stoning of women for any reason any man might come up with; let’s make women wear burkahs; let’s lash them if they dare show an ankle; let’s ban girls from schools; let’s approve of throwing acid in faces that are judged too pretty; let’s ban music, radio, and TV; instead, let’s hold public hangings, lashings, stonings on the Village Green on Sunday afternoons and let’s make attendance to such events mandatory.
In this way we can wipe out uncertainty. And we won’t have to worry about the markets because we will have banned money as well.
