Tasered Student
OK, I know that I have been absent here for a long time and trust me, I have like a thousand things to update everyone on, but I just had to post this clip from a story I heard about this morning. A student was arrested and tasered by police at a speech that John Kerry was giving simply for asking good questions. If this is what is allowed to happed to people who are asking good political questions can you imagine what might happen if the church actually started taking stands against rampant national injustice, violence, and evil?? On so many levels, this should make us all very, very nervous (not to mention outraged).
Where the Heck Did This Guy Come From?
I had no idea there was a presidential candidate out there talking like this. I really didn’t like my options last time around. In fact, I was actually inspired to write a paper on why, in a Presidential election, a Christian might choose to abstain from voting. Thanks for sharing these Sam. I know nothing of this guy other that what I have seen in these videos, but these give me some hope.
