Columbus Day is when the ppl who claim "immigrants are thieves rapists & murderers" celebrate an immigrant who thieved, raped & murdered.

And US Christians raised on White Supremacy don't mind that Columbus violated all commandments of Christ, bc their only true religion is domination.

Nobody’s taking anything away from you by telling the truth about Columbus. Your argument is with history, facts and morality, not me.

This country is named after an Italian and nobody has any problem with a holiday honoring Italian Americans.

Do you defend Columbus’s killings & rapes?

“Love Your Neighbor as Yourself” Means Everyone—Including Immigrants, Migrants, and Refugees

From the Roman centurion to the woman at the well, Jesus frequently interacted with and helped outsiders from differing tribes. His teachings regularly command love and hospitality toward immigrant…

The point is that he did fulfill them, and now there's a New Covenant, so people can drop the homophobia and enjoy bacon.

For anyone who might need reminding

**Alt text:**
A tweet by John Fugelsang lists 14 pointed questions related to Donald Trump’s history and alleged racist actions, such as:

1. Where was Barack Obama born?
2. Why was Trump fired from The Apprentice?
3. Who are the Central Park 5?
4. What statues were the “very fine people” in Charlottesville marching to protect?
5. How many Haitian migrants were actually found to be “illegals” who were eating pets?
… continuing through questions about Colin Kaepernick, Confederate monuments, “go back where you came from” comments, Judge Curiel, and calling countries “shithole countries.”

He ends with:
“Racism that doesn't bother people who don't mind racism is still racism. Donald Trump is so racist his crosses burned themselves.”

A reply below says:

> “You are blind! I will pray for you! Name one racist thing trump has done! Get over the race bs.”

In Matt 25 Jesus says that individuals & nations will be judged by how they care for the poor & sick.

Govt is shutdown bc GOP wants to throw 12-20 million low-income/disabled Americans off Medicaid.

Bc the GOP uses Jesus as a prop, while despising His actual commandments.

“In the 21st century, we’ve ushered in a new age of slut shaming, a time where the culture, media, and men demand women sexualize themselves to prove their societal value, and then punish the ones who dare to enjoy it.”
