Persecution of Christians OK; Dealing with Muslim Extremists is Not

I'm so old I remember when "persecution" meant more than someone disagreed with something you said.

And yet again, once he became a full general his statements were seen by the media and he was summarily persecuted by them.

Now we're back to "persecution" consisting of people disagreeing with things that a person says.

That's from October 2003. Boykin was promoted in 2004. He retired in 2007.

Round and round and round and round and round . . .

What we are looking for, my dim-witted friend, is some support for the assertion that he was fired in 2007 for the things that he said in 2003, notwithstanding that he was promoted in 2004.

The victimized white and the victimized Christian....

These two are funny in the USA.... If you are victimized and a member of a vast majority... its your own fault.

 

[Phantasmal]

you're a moron....christians are in fact persecuted, not in every nation, but they are persecuted in some nations....but i know you hate white people, especially white christians

I thought we were talking about the USA and Christians are not persecuted here, by any stretch of the imagination.
