Hyperbole and metaphor would be refreshing, at least they're related to the truth somehow.

He's saying that if the Democratic party is going to literally outlaw teaching his values to children then he is left with no choice but to take up arms against that government because he's already a criminal in their eyes.

Teaching kids the value of self-defense, an important aspect of bodily autonomy, is literally terrorism.

Well in this case it's wanting to avoid teaching his kid that LGBT people are ok and that it's fine to be homosexual because he's religious.... but still. He's got a right to do that.

He’s a douche for it but I wouldn’t stop the man from teaching his kids his religious beliefs.
I still don’t know how Ben Shapiro is relevant to the thread.

Because Vassenor decided that since Ben threatened to take up arms SF 'Had a point' about the NRA being a terrorist group. But that's the thing, the situation in which Shapiro said he would take up arms and violently oppose the government is far fetched nonsense that's spewing out of Beto O'Rourke's mouth. He's reacting to things said by Beto and pointing out that if Beto had his way, Shapiro and millions of other republicans would have no choice but to violently oppose the government.
It's not that he would WANT to. It's that Beto's stances are literally so far past the pale there would be no other option.

because Vassenor brought him up as some sort of weird tactic to try and own the NRA. because i guess Ben Shapiro is the voice of the NRA now?

Well shit, Shapiro and I have something in common. Armed revolt would sure as hell be better than anything Beto would enact if given the chance.Meligoland wrote:because Vassenor brought him up as some sort of weird tactic to try and own the NRA. because i guess Ben Shapiro is the voice of the NRA now?
A move I have no doubt that she’d react positively to if used towards, say, Planned Parenthood.

What Beto's wants in this case is not referring to his gun polices but all Schools teaching LGBT Stuff. Or just projecting enforced teaching upon his "Remove tax exemptions" for anti-LGBT churches idea. (I can't find anyone specifically talking about what beto wants in terms of schooling)
Sure you might have issues with but is it really armed revolt worthy especially if just removal of special treatment?

The government selectively taxing churches isn't just the "removal of special treatment" it is a clear violation of their constitutional rights.

The way the law is set up means the qualifications are based on beliefs. Hence why i said it's both removal of special treatment and a 1A breach.
To actually play devil's advocate he said There can be no reward, no benefit, no tax break for anyone ... that denies the full human rights and the full civil rights of every single one of us" not that any opposition counts as that per se.
Maybe he's fine with say...churches not doing gay marriage themselves and being against but not preventing it's members from doing it from other sources.

Ah. On that front, not really. I disagree on removing tax exemptions simply for being “anti-LGBT” and don’t think private schools should be forced into teaching LGBT stuff but it ain’t worth potentially killing anybody over.

Define “prevention” cause a church that’s against something but doesn’t denounce its members when they do it isn’t really against that thing.

Shapiro made no mention of kids when said he'd pick up his gun. Quality apologism from you there. Might have a shot at working on FOXNews.
