I think a charge of improper backing is the least of this huckster’s problems.

I know that was the shock of his life,getting hand cuffed.He sounds like the creature from back in the day who the famous Coasters brought to life,named Charlie Brown.

" Charlie Brown, Charlie Brown
He’s a clown, that Charlie Brown
He’s gonna get caught; just you wait and see
(Why’s everybody always pickin’ on me?)

That’s him on his knees, I know that’s him"

“What would you do to a man like that?” Me? I’d kick him in the balls. But, according to the Bible:
Matthew 5:38-40
38 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’ 39 But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. 40 And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well.”

These folks used to be a tiny minority of crazies like the Westboro Baptist Church. Now they are mainstream. Damn I want my country back from the Talk Radio loons.

This angry pastor would run over Jesus. I don’t think Jesus can drive a bus.

Black Christian woman boards bus in Montgomery Alabama. And she sits in front, to protest racist treatment on city buses.

White “Christian” PASTOR uses bus to threaten and harm people who don’t agree with him.

Yep, sounds about right.

This huckster must need to keep shaking down his elderly parishioners (marks) to afford his mansion, private jet, and mansion. Alternatively he’s nuts.

These Christians are curious folk.
Far as I can see, I don’t think they really know a whole lot about what Jesus was trying to get people to do.

They are “Christians” in name only. Many stop reading the Bible after the Old Testament; last I checked, not much mention of Jesus Christ in that part of the book.

Behold the power of a perverted religion.

Muslim jihadists aren’t the only ones who can pervert their so-called faith.
