pectoral cross on display.

Doesn't hurt that he sort of looks like Rock Hudson in that photo.

doing in the bedroom, someone might be having fun. Or getting a bj and they're not

Pedophile.

Maybe some of the religious really believe that stuff from Jesus's sermon on mound.....

I belong to one.

"Progressive" churches in the area on human rights issue and other "left wing" concerns.
It's the right wing evangelicals and holy rollers who are giving Christianity a bad name.
As as person of Jewish faith, I know how this feels to be vilified unjustly.

Of course the churches that we work with aren't necessarily progressive - just Christian.

The one that says "Blessed are the women who don't have abortions."

Hippocrates, verses 4 through 9.

We were sitting eating lunch one day when a few evangelical girls who were in a religious class he was taking, came over and started trying to debate him.

I remember him saying to them, "do you ever notice all you ever quote is the old testament? You might want to consider reading the New Testament. You know, the one that deals with what Jesus Christ taught us. The person whom Christianity was founded on." They huffed and stalked off. I high fived him. He said he considered the New Testament like a codicil to a will, in this case, the will being the Old Testament. It changed a lot of things.

but when have these NEW RepubliCONs cared about anything they care to do.....

Everyday I warn others........you ain't seen nothing yet in their un-impeded march forwards, folks........

Those aren't Federal police? They're identified in the Reuters article as Illinois State Police.

...in one photograph.

That this image, and this occurrence,
will be seen by history as an inflection point

that there’s at least one ‘Clarence’ that recognizes ‘injustice’ without looking for a way to fill his wallet.

They seek bonus from Noem for this.

The man in this Reuters photo is Rev. Michael Woolf.

All I will say is the Iceman needs to be careful. Ice melts quickly in extreme heat.

Indeed.

goons are so unprofessionally abusive. Watched a video the other day that showed officers yanking a young woman from the driver's seat of her SUV. Two big apes were each holding one of her legs and her tail end slammed from the car seat right down to the pavement. It had to be painful and possibly injured her.

Similarly, what right do they have to wreck your car or home -- just slashing out the windows -- without knowing whether the occupants are even guilty of anything?

Where are the lawyers who can file suits against the government, whether its local, state or feds?

purposely hateful. She isn't the first I've seen get picked up and thrown to the ground. When did it get heroic to pick up women and slam them around? There should be a mental test before some men are permitted to wear a uniform or badge of any sort. Once they're "official" they become idiots.

I don’t care which cloth it is..all religions believe in The Beatitudes as interrupted in their holy books. Seems those who preach it are doing the necessary work

I've been asking months on end: Where are the legitimate faith leaders, those who still follow a code of morality, love and forgiveness?

Well, now they've arrived. Each photograph like the one above is both infuriating but a powerful reminder of how out of control ICE has become and how antithetical to the Christian message these assaults truly are.

Hattip to this clergyman and all the others of different denominations and faiths who are willing to put their bodies on the line for the sake of others. This is what faith looks like as opposed to the false piety and/or lack of empathy Trumpers embrace.

but even I find it repulsive to throw a person of faith on the ground and manhandle them because they are protesting your actions. DISGUSTING!!!!

Got it!
