Saw this on the TikTok machine…half thought that it was a “bit”, seeings as how OTT the haranguing was.2 of 3 men who disrupted Muslim prayer at USF identified, police file hate crime charges
Police said they filed hate crime charges against Christopher Svochak, 40, of Waco, Texas, and Richard Penskoski, 49, of Canyon, Oklahoma. Both have known local addresses in the Tampa Bay area, but no affiliation with USF, according to officials.
Police filed charges against Svochak and Penskosk under Florida State Statute 871.071 for disturbing schools and religious assemblies — which will be upgraded to a felony hate crime. They also filed charges for disorderly conduct and disrupting a school or lawful assembly.
The two men, and the unidentified third suspect, are associated with “the official street preachers.” In a statement, they said they were exercising their constitutional right to preach and speak against Islam.
Cell phone video captured the moment the three men confronted the group of students. The Muslim Students Association at USF said the men shouted slurs at them, waved bacon, and mocked their sacred rituals.
In one clip, a man could be heard saying, “You guys don’t have any bombs on you do you.” Another clip showed one of the men saying, “Spit on Muhammed’s name, he is a scum bag, just like all you Muslim terrorist.” It all lasted about 13 minutes.
Sexual immorality applies to gender norms as well as directly sexual activity. The T is covered because it is a perversion for men to masquerade as women or women to masquerade as men.How would the T be covered by "porneia", or did you only mean the others? I recognize that the A was not part of what you answered, but do you believe that would also be covered by "porneia", if so how? I'm not even sure the Q would be covered, I guess it would depend if the person using it means in a sexual way rather than a identity marker.
I will be honest. As a law and order guy, I am frustrated at ICE. Every single Ametican rhat is picked up for assaulting or impeding, obstructing should be charged. They should have to go to court.Op/Ed: ICE is grabbing U.S. citizens, defying its own rules and the Constitution
Dayanne Figueroa was on her way to work in Chicago last month when she drove onto a street where an immigration enforcement action was in progress. As she attempted to drive around the chaos, an unmarked vehicle collided with her car. Masked men jumped out of the vehicle, guns drawn and dragged Figueroa from her car by her legs. She was thrown into a minivan, taken away and held by Immigration and Customs Enforcement for hours. Dayanne Figueroa is an American citizen.
Figueroa’s case is not an isolated incident. The nonprofit newsroom ProPublica hasdocumented more than 170 cases of U.S. citizens, mostly Latinos, being detained at raids and protests since January.
The wrongful arrest of U.S. citizens by immigration agents is not new; it happened under Presidents Biden and Obama, and during President Trump’s first term. What is new is that Homeland Security and ICE are dramatically ramping up enforcement actions, while operating with less oversight than in the past. This has resulted in greater potential for mistakes — and for more traumatized or injured Americans.
The government denies that these episodes are happening. “There’s no American citizens that have been arrested or detained,” Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said in October. “[Her statement] also is contradicted by Homeland Security press releases explaining why some citizens have been arrested or detained.
When citizens are arrested by immigration agents, it is frequently on the grounds of assaulting or impeding officers. The ProPublica report, however, found that such charges often were dismissed later or dropped. [Figueroa was never charged.]
And Gal 6:15 says for in CHRIST JESUS Neither. CIRCMCISION. (. Meaning Jews. as all males had to be Circumcised )It is plain, what is the issue with this verse? What does it mean to become a new creation in Christ? Would one be clinging to their old life of sin and worshipping others gods, or stealing from their neighbor, or would one die of self and be baptized with Christ turning a new path keeping God's commandments through love and faith. John14:15 Rom3:31 Rom 6:1-4
Yup, and tomorrow (not literally) Trump will be blasting Mamdani for his socialist programs in NY.There in lies the problem. The GOP was ready to run every political race in every state through "what about Mamdani".
Now they are upset of Trump for these optics. It won't last. Nothing lasts with Trump.
And yet from where I live I can see Devon on a clear day which is about 60 miles.
What does "out of bounds" mean? That's a meaningless term without real actionability.I don't know what counsel is telling them. Yes, they receive training on responsibility and conduct. What happens when one is ordered to do something that is out of bounds? I think you already mentioned something to the effect, the White house lawyers will cover them. Apparently for some, that doesn't alleviate the concern. Specially in a White house where expressing your concern gets you fired or removed, and replaced with someone simply because they will comply
So you're suggesting "hearing and learning" may provide a condition to being drawn, which in turn enables one to come? How could someone who is unable to receive Christ in the first place "hear and learn"?Not from that text, but:
It is written in the prophets, ‘And they shall all be taught of God.’ Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father, comes to Me.
— John 6:45
So "heard and learned" may be the reason to be drawn.
A whole flock of general officers retired over the invasion of Iraq...and nobody outside the military noticed. The Army chief of staff got fired pushing back against the invasion of Iraq...and nobody outside the military noticed.Concerns? Over what? This was about illegal orders. There hasn't been any. You think there weren't any concerns ftom military members who invaded Iraq?
This was political theater meant to undermine the president and suggest he's giving illegal orders and they have an obligation to disobey them. When in fact he hasn't.
You wrote "payers" - i.e people who pay - instead of prayers.
I am not so sure about anyone trying to present a polished and virtuous image on the outside. I would like to see at least more of that.I am wondering if the culture is what is causing peoples heart to grow corrupt on the inside while trying to present a polished and virtious image on the outside.

Amen!He might have escaped human justice, but he would not have escaped God's judgement.
The same comment would apply to every other murderer throughout history who thought he got away with it.
Rubbish.This is another believer in the truth down the pan, all because of peoples attitudes.![]()
Even if we had infallible interpreters, we'd be stuck interpreting them as well. Unless you're advocating that each of us is infallible in our interpretations. So it doesn't seem to me that we can affirm either, at least unless we're simply going to be insisting on such matters dogmatically and don't deal in the practical realities involved.r
Well, I think both need to be affirmed. It wouldn't make a lot of sense to have inerrant interpretation of an errant text.
That offer has been on the table since day one. It was called "surrender".It's up to Ukraine, an offer is better than no offers.
If you didn't, you wouldn't have responded either way...
