#16  When asking yourself "What would Jesus do?", it is important to remember that overturning tables and chasing people with whips is not out of the question.

#13  Honestly, using a blow horn in that method is assault.

#12  Jesus confronted sinners at the Temple but He didn’t do a lot of that. Probably best to come dressed in Tivek if you plan to protest around that mayor. He seems either possessed or unusually horney.

#11  Another rule: "Force the bastards to follow their own rules."
The book was written to help overthrow our government and set up a communist dictatorship, but good advice is good advice.

#10  I think more Christians should show up at these events. Surrounded by cameras. when the filthy rats strike out, they get viral videos published like this.
It was first publicized in Rules for Radicals: "their reaction is your action."
You goad the enemy into attacking and then play the victim.
I'm glad someone out there had learned from the last several decades of ass-kicking administered by the Left.

#9  Some alternative context:

The Mayor
Jim Ross, who has been mayor of the Texas city since 2021, was seen in the footage from Vice in 2018 berating a demonstrator at the Southern Decadence festival in New Orleans, an LGBT event held annually over Labor Day weekend.

The Preacher
Israel, who died in 2023, was known for showing up to pride events with his supporters and holding anti-gay signs.

#7  You no longer have to wonder how he treats his constituents.

#6  This is one reason I'm not a practicing Christian. That whole "Turn the other cheek" thing has some serious flaws.

They sort of skip over whipping the money changers on the Temple steps.

#5  Preacher needs to introduce Ross to his god.

#3  That should make for a nice campaign ad for whoever runs against Hizzoner in the next election.

From the city of Arlington web page:
As Mayor, he serves on the boards of the Arlington Tomorrow Foundation, Gene and Jerry Jones Family Arlington Youth Foundation, National Medal of Honor Museum Foundation, Texas Municipal League, North Texas Commission, Tarrant County Workforce Governing Board, Downtown Arlington Management Corporation and as a member of the North Central Texas Council of Governments' Regional Transportation Council and the Tarrant Regional Transportation Council.

Serving on boards is a nice way to pick up a little extra cash. Being on 9 different boards, it is a wonder he has any time left to do mayor stuff.

#2  Mr.Mayor seems to be in serious need of an attitude adjustment. Does the tough guy shtick work amongst the sword swallower/butt pirate electorate?

A Christian preacher at an LGBTQ festival????
Was the preacher speaking out against, or was he there supporting Homosexuals, which is in conflict with the Bible?
