"It looked like something out of a 2015 news report -- a picture from ISIS, maybe, torching its way through Mosul. But the charred pews and collapsed roof were not the work of Islamic terrorists, but America's own. Over the weekend, the rioters, the same ones who wanted us to believe their cause is justice, came for our churches -- using gasoline, lighters, gallons of paint, and vans to drive their message of destruction and chaos through the heart of America's faithful..."

It is usually unwise to post a link without first reading it. The article about the charred pews and collapsed roof that "were not the work of Islamic terrorists, but America's own" included this sentence: "There was no obvious evidence that the blaze had been set."

Navy vet beaten by federal agents
“It isn’t about me getting beat up. It’s about focusing back on the original intention of all of these protests, which is Black Lives Matter...What they were doing was unconstitutional.

They really don’t feel in their heart the weight of those words.”
