Wow.
@GovMikeHuckabee, please find some kindness and perspective today. Maybe the scripture reading for today will help http://www.edgeofenclosure.org/proper7b.html -
He's a Bible college graduate & an ordained Southern Baptist minister. If anything, Scripture is part of the problem.
-
Maybe he needs to go back and read the parts in red? (For non-Christians, those are the words directly attributed to Jesus)
#WWJD -
Unforunately he's part of the branch that reads the Bible not for "what is God trying to tell me" but for "how can I twist this to fit what I personally want".
-
That's every branch. Except for the Unitarians, probably.

My church and my pastor push me to listen, learn and be uncomfortable. We try hard to walk the walk, not just talk the talk...and with humility (because we’re human and therefore we’re sure to get lots of things wrong)
@smumc -
That's clear just from what you've said here. I suspect you bring as much grace & compassion to Scripture as you get out, if not more; so leave some space in that humility to give yourself some credit. Reminds me of a quote. I don't think it's from the Bible, though...pic.twitter.com/Tswqay9d0c

It's true about the red-letter parts, though, nice_marmot. Christ said, "I give you a new commandment: Love one another as I have loved you." These days it can be hard to follow that 100%, I confess.

I reported his tweet as hate targeted against a specific group. I hope others do as well.

Same. I come from an area where MS13 was a frequent thing and still is. It's very rarely the immigrants that make up their ranks. But ain't no one tryin to hear that.

from wikipedia: Most members are of Central American origin, principally El Salvador.

"Central American origin" also covers people whose parents and grandparents came from Central America. I would be considered "of Dutch/Irish origin." My ancestors arrived right after the revolution.

Oh good lord. The matching shirts. For god's sake. Is that the dog he killed?
-
The dog he killed was when he was a Boy Scout counselor, he was fired from the job and his daddy pulled strings to keep him from getting in trouble for animal torture.https://www.bustle.com/articles/81306-mike-huckabees-son-david-has-a-troubling-history-with-law-enforcement-thats-really-disturbing-to-read …
