    It’s weird that he thinks that “passage” justifies a country in what it’s doing. In the Bible it was God who said that, not a person. It’s like he thinks the US is equivalent to God.

          Yea I’d rather him be equivalent to God since God doesn’t exist whereas Sammy Jackson is a pretty damn cool dude

      Islamic terrorists and republicans are much closer in their beliefs than either would like to admit.

      In reality Pete Keg-sith is just chickenshit with make-up in a finely tailored suit.

          To be fair the flag code isn’t even like “real” outside of the military.

      It’s not even in the bible. What Jackson says is a mashup of multiple verses, and also, Sonny Chiba.
