Well, I can join about several thousand like me to fight back with brute force, take back the country piece by piece and throw ourselves on God’s mercy when we’re done. But that’s just me.
I know Jesus said turn the other cheek, but that’s not just me. Never has been. Cant change.
Rather go down swinging than let these communists, muslims, deviants and punks take my country. Sorry. I know you are goo person, i can tell.

I'm not advocating backing down and it's against my nature too.

Jesus turned the other cheek indeed but he did a lot more than that and He gathered followers, not stunt-doubles. He lived in His circumstances, we live in ours.

There are some things that must be fought for. Liberty is one of them. There is an obligation to protect those who cannot protect themselves. That demands strength and strategy and resources.

If ever any nation on earth must be fought for, it's the United States of America.

Turn the other cheek, yes. He did NOT say stand there and let yourself be slapped silly. At some point, you must fight back.
