Nice suit he’s wearing there.
I believe according to his own rules you can stone him to death for mixing two different fibres.
I’ll bet he’s also eaten shellfish, and mixed meat with dairy.
The unholy cheeseburger

These people would be laughable if they weren’t so dangerous.
Pretty sure we learn evolution in the rest of the world, and um we don’t have school shootings, again this is a very American problem
“We’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas!”
Whoa! You can have any gun you want, but we draw the line at allowing logic.
He’s in a room full of people that were also taught evolution. How is he not cowering in fear under the desk one of his fellow congresspeople won’t shot him? Maybe, just maybe, evolution has nothing to do with it?
Just when I honestly can’t think conservatives could go any further out of their way to embarrass America than they already do….
They elect people like [INSERT GENERIC WEALTHY WHITE MAN].
Yeah he’s stupid, he’s a Republican, what do you expect? This is their whole party. The dumbest people from society all brought together by nonsense conspiracy theories, selfishness, and wilful ignorance.
Don’t forget greed! A number of them are smart, morally bankrupt people who are conning the dumbest segment of the population. That actually used to be the primary composition of the Republican party, then that dumbest segment of the population grew up and started running for office themselves.
They are the worst. In my state, the Republicans, in the name of freedom and free speech, are trying to push bills to require like three or five minutes of uninterrupted time for citizens who wish to speak at any public meeting .
Dumbass Republicans think oh that’s great, people should be able to speak at public meetings.
Business still has to get done though. That’s why limits on the timing and number of speakers and the conditions which require notice and public comment are well settled and this is a solution in search of a problem. What they are really intending to do is give extremist members of the public a statutory right to perpetually disrupt public meetings and prevent business from being done. This is part of their campaign too prevent well-meaning people from having the energy for public service.
Misleading headline: if you read the article and watch the video, he actually blames school shootings on the lack of moral education, with merely a reference to evolution teaching as an example of amoral atheism in the classroom.
So it’s not a cartoonish slogan, it’s actually a fairly standard fascist talking point.
And people say, ‘How can a young person go into their schoolhouse and open fire on their classmates?’ Because we’ve taught a whole generation, a couple generations now of Americans, that there’s no right or wrong, that it’s about survival of the fittest, and you evolve from the primordial slime. Why is that life of any sacred value? Because there’s nobody sacred to whom it’s owed. None of this should surprise us.
What’s the point of this post? You’ve tried to made a distinction without a difference. He literally blamed school shootings on the fact of teaching evolution.
It’s an apt editorialisation, but it’s not the whole story. The difference is the full quote will sound reasonable enough to a lot of people with a religious background. For instance, I can see my grandparents nodding a long to this, as they mentally insert their own specifics in place of “evolution did it.”
It’s not so easily dismissed as just saying the crazy thing outright, without padding.

I think Biden and Harris should not be in the same state at once, much less the same plane. Can’t afford to lose both at once.
It’s not like he was going to blame his supporters.
Exactly, or blame organizations with lobbyists who give money.
oh for fucks sake
How school shooting becomes symbol of America’s freedom is beyond comedy.
Don’t understand it, so it’s evil and the cause of all my problems
That thing with a super easy cause and solution actually is caused by this completely unrelated thing that I personally really dislike!
And since I have had very little education about anything at all, and the little education I did receive was mostly focused on nonsensical goat herders stories from 2000 years ago, you know I must be right!
wrong sub; not mild
I know. It’s Extremely Infuriating. But I found only one community for Extremely Infuriating that appears to be a ghost town.
Which is why I posted this here.
