Angry people with guns are killing innocent people every day, but Texas doesn't care they just allowed no gun restrictions!

Does Jesus tell us to shoot people or love them? He says
[b][c=BF0000]"Love your enemies and pray for those who despitefully use you"

@littlepuppywantanewlife Back in late 1800s early 1900s in little pacifist Mennonite communities across south west Russia/Ukraine entire families of Mennonites began to be killed or the women raped or the babies stolen. The Mennonites who had lived there for almost 100 years lived in terror clinging to their faith in God and their belief that God did not want them to have guns. In one small community the entire village was eventually wiped out except for one family. That family had guns and the Russians knew it. That family never used their guns to kill anyone or even threaten anyone but when the Mennonites in the area decided to move to Canada that family was still there to move with them. I am so glad that family had guns because had they not I would never have learned what I did from one of my Christian mentors. It was his grandparents that had the guns in Russia.
@hippyjoe1955 That sounds good. But do we need guns in this current situation. People misuse guns alot. .

@littlepuppywantanewlife The Mennonites had lived in peace for almost 100 years when the marauding gangs of Russian with guns began to exterminate them. The more things change the more they are the same. History repeats itself over and over and over again. What was one of the first things Stalin did when he came to power? He took away all the guns. What was one of the first things Hitler did when he came to power? He took away all the guns. Do you see a pattern here? Tyrants and those who would do harm want disarmed citizens.

@littlepuppywantanewlife We do not need guns you are right! God is punishing us for our violent movies, and worship of freedom I believe!

@Carazaa If we could legislate morality Christ died for no reason.

@hippyjoe1955 Christian countries restrict freedom for safety and have prospered for 1000 years in Europe.

@hippyjoe1955 I am for a strong loving Christian Government! That worked well in Scandinavia and they have been the happy, safe, and prosperous. That is changing ofcourse since they have forgotten God many of them, but many Syrians are coming to Christ because of the loving nature and strong loving government there, not tolerating any racism.
@Carazaa war doesn't brings freedom. It only harms humanity and livelihoods.

@littlepuppywantanewlife Exactly we need to put our guns away in my opinion.
