Try setting your clothes on fire and see what happens.


You confuse federal laws regarding sleep ware, thinking it applies to all clothing.

Down trivially from up 40+%. Especially if you reclassify crimes as lesser ones and don’t charge people.

The subways are getting worse. Just last week a guy almost cleared out the rush-hour car by standing on the seat and yelling. He was quite large and had on screwy sunglasses.

I was amazed that so many people didn’t leave the car.

Apparently so did Duke Ellington at least as far as taking the F train in this instance.

It was OT Law and Jesus did teach somewhat different.

That said, capital punishment was established by God and should be carried out by authorities for crimes that deserve it.

So while giving him what he gave her is perhaps not an option, he still needs to pay severely for the crime.

One can forgive others and still have justice done.

It really bothers me how in westerns, and very much in the 1940s and 50s westerns, it is so convincingly used as almost the basis of Christian law, it is used so much and so righteously that I wonder if it was used the way it was on purpose, by Hollywood writers hostile to Christianity, sort of the way those old westerns always had saintly Priests, but usually a Protestant minister was portrayed as deeply flawed and usually phony, with a bottle in his pocket, not always, but probably the majority of the times they appear.

Yeah, whatever comes out of Hollywood cannot be trusted to be fair to true Christianity.

...we must continue to live in a horribly uncivilized country...

Just to be clear, you are watching the collapse of Western Civilization while seated on the front row.

Probably a homeless with rags for clothes and full of dried sweat. She was a asleep, made her an easy target.

she was out of her mind. Drugs or booze.. are there any freepers that think sleeping on the subway is a good idea?

And of course it is a “migrant”.

And at the same time Hochul is celebrating how safe the subway is for New Yorkers. She is delusional to post such a comment today.

“Synthetic fabric.”

Yes, guess that could be it. Although it is winter here, and it’s been very cold so would think this person would be wearing a coat, but if that coat was made of synthetics, I suppose that could explain it.

I remember hearing that about Richard Pryor, when he set himself on fire smoking crack (or something like that). That his shirt way polyester and just was instantly inflamed. Had it been cotton, or wool, that would not have happened.

Scary, really.

Washing clothes with gasoline was a thing apparently.

When one of the criminals crucified with Jesus reviled Him, the Good Thief rebuked that criminal, saying “...we have been condemned justly, for the sentence we received corresponds to our crimes...” and Jesus didn’t say, “You shouldn’t be put to death either.”

Which is fine, I’m not aware of anyone at FR who is anti-punishment for crime, or anti-death penalty.

See post 87, the eye for an eye is not what Jesus taught, a justice system delivers sober, somber punishment which can include the death penalty, but not an eye for an eye punishment.

They found the murderer. One hopes they don’t just give him a date to appear and turn him lose. In NY that is probably too much to hope.

I think hochul specifically that she had made the subway system safer.

SAY HER NAME - Amelia Carter 29 years old. Burned alive on subway by illegal alien

(the instagram below states they are her parents). Media refuses to post her name/face and tried to smear her by saying she was drunk or homeless and was seated by empty alcohol bottles. The subway is always filthy.

“I’ve also seen reports that he was emptied from a Guatemalan prison and was then coddled by a United Nations’ migrant NGO, the Clinton Foundation and the Obama Foundation with three cellphones — unconfirmed, but if true, he certainly had the NGO migrant industrial complex behind him.”
