For perspective on where you’re coming from with your post, I looked up some of your old posts and gathered the following:
*You weren’t ‘really expecting Trump to win’ - he did
*You didn’t like PC and you called it out - now you expect Trump to be PC when he calls out evil
*You didn’t want a pious president - such as Ted Cruz - who was ‘off-putting’ to you because he thought he did “the REAL Christian thing” - now you seem disappointed that we don’t have President Evangelist
So today you’re complaining about the things you previously said you wanted. You say you changed because you’re now a parent. Most of us are parents (and grandparents) as well, and our children are our priority.
Yet, we believe President Trump is doing an amazing job. And I’ve never seen anyone post concerns that we now have to explain porn to our babies. Ridiculous!
At any rate, one of your gripes is that President Trump said MS-13 members are animals, and this is somehow dehumanizing language in your mind?
If you’re going to raise your children in this world, you’d best get reengaged and snap out of it - whether you support President Trump now, or you never did...
MS-13 members are evil savages.
Look up some reports of what they’ve done, then pray your children never encounter anyone like them.
The first time I ever heard the name MS-13 was when gang members poured flammable liquid down a teenaged girl’s throat and set her on fire.
That is an act of the demon possessed. They are unrepentant reprobates - laughing about their evil acts.
I noticed one FReeper’s comment to you and have to wonder if he was on to something:
“You again. Always the first to throw fuel on the fire in every thread. I think youre a troll.”
Well, there’s also a difference between Christian and Christianized. The former might be praying how to evangelize the savages. The latter, arguing what the veneer looks like and about whether to use Lemon Pledge or Old English on it.
This MS-13 is what you’d expect out of “sitters in the seat of scoffers.” It becomes a contest for how mean one can get. And it’s a crying irony for a group of people (twisted however they be) that identify with a country whose name is “The Saviour” in Spanish.
Calling them animals is perhaps in the vein of the “wild beasts” that Paul reported fighting at Ephesus. The question for a devoted Christian is how, if at all possible, to pluck some out of the fire. It won’t be spiritually easy. It will get the missionary effort a faceful of Satan.
