Take Action: VA orders Bible removed from MIA/POW table
American Family Association ^ | 3/31/2016 | AFA staff

Posted on 03/31/2016 7:21:18 PM PDT by stars & stripes forever

A Bible and Bible verse have been removed from a POW/MIA display inside an Akron, Ohio Veteran's Administration clinic after a complaint from atheist Mikey Weinstein.

For decades, these items have long been a part of a "Missing Man Table" commonly displayed at military functions and installations all across the nation.

Weinstein said he intervened at the request of nearly a dozen, mostly Christian, military veterans who said they were offended by the Bible display. As usual, Weinstein failed to provide proof that these people actually exist...

Who the hell is he? This is not the first time I’ve heard of the military bending over backwards to please this guy. He is but one man, one bigoted man.

Why so many people fear the Bible is perplexing.

They don’t want to hear the Truth.

Only those that are driven by Satan despise the Bible. Mikey must be one of the first to go when President Trump takes office.

Hopefully, Trump will reverse all these attacks on Christianity.

They probably don’t want to “offend” any ****ing Muzzies who put the veterans in there in the first place. This Obamanation really sucks. I am so ashamed of this country and most of the freeloading humanoids that inhabit it these days.

[What about a koran?]

I am disappointed no Presidential candidate has made a promise to restore the right of military chaplains to pray in the name of JESUS CHRIST.

He’s an atheist. That means he believes he won’t be punished if he lies. That’s one thing they have in common with muslims.

That’s the plan. Funny thing is.....leftist radicals will not like the ultimate outcome. Hope they’re ready and hope they think it was ‘worth it’.

This is what has happened to our once great country...
Tiny (and I mean tiny) minorities can dictate what they want and it doesn’t matter about the majorities...

Atheists
GLBT (whatever alphabet mix they are)
Illegal aliens
Racial minorities

We have basically given them our country...
Hopefully, Trump can get us started back to greatness again

Good news.

Cruz has done this and will continue to do so.

Trump can do nothing for a bunch of passive people who have lost the ability to be outraged. Doesn’t the shelach Shaul say “Be angry and sin not”. Why aren’t we angry?!! When we feel righteous outrage, it is a sin to let the sun go down without doing something. Find out where Weinstein hides and give him a good dose of his own medicine. Occupy had no problem taking government facilities. Go, and sin no more!

I am a professional videographer and was offered a job to record a speech he gave to a private group of donors during the 2008 campaign. Over the phone I hid my revulsion when told the speaker but took the job as a chance to be a mole.

I found that little pint sized pissant to be one of the most overbearing little pricks I have ever come across.
