IS JUSTICE CLARENCE THOMAS A BAD BOY?

 IS JUSTICE CLARENCE THOMAS A BAD BOY?

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas has been getting a free ride on luxury jets from a White billionaire named Harlan Crow (no relation to Jim). Liberals in the Senate want to put the hammer to Thomas, as if he has committed the unpardonable sin.
FACT CHECK:
There is NO rule or regulation that Thomas has to report all of his free rides or toys that the White people of America give him. If he is smart enough to earn a free ride in my Buick, and if I decide to give him that ride, it is NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.
Now, I admit, I have not yet been in a position to actually give the Justice a ride in my Buick. But, if he were to ride in my Buick, I would not report it to anyone, and neither should he have to.
On another note which leads to the same social discussion, Elon Musk has just been handed $46 billion in stock, by Tesla stock holders, as a reward for inventing a car and a rocket that happen to be very successful. All sorts of people, and the Liberal media, are whining that Musk is being paid too much. Never mind that it is the stock holders who believe in Musk and Tesla who voted to give him the wind fall.
Why all the hate lately for those who prosper? Elon Musk took the risk, he promoted his toys, and he ends up in the lineup of famous Amoses who did well for themselves like, Henry Ford, John D Rockefeller, Bill Gates, and me.
"Ha, ha," you say, "You are not in that league."
Correct by dollar measures. But, I opened a business on the Internet in 1995 in which I was one of only two people worldwide selling piano parts and tools to do-it-yourselfers. Elizabeth and I were the only employees, and when we sold the business thirteen years later, we got enough to get us out of debt and buy a home in Texas.
Make no mistake, God is the one who gave me the sense and help to make this venture work. I am sorry if he did not get your permission to bless me. Maybe you need to just deal with it.
So, if you want to reward me further by giving me a ride in your luxury jet, that is nobody's business but yours and mine. If you want to sponsor Justice Clarence Thomas to fly to Tongo Island and back, that is also nobody's business but yours and his. And, if you want to hand Elon Musk a couple of dollars for doing well to himself, do it, and slap the fool who whines about it.
America is abandoning the cultural norm on which we were founded which was taken from the Bible. These texts below answer the question of whether Clarence Thomas or Elon Musk are bad boys:
2 Thessalonians 3:10 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
1 Timothy 5:17 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.
Justice Thomas, Elon Musk, Bill Gates, and I are not evil because God has blessed us for working and taking risks. If we got more reward than you did for our effort, that is God's choice, not yours. God does not have to explain to you why he blesses one person more than another. He has a reason, and he is not required to put you on the committee in heaven which assigns blessings.
AND, if someone wants to hand us "double honor" in the form of favors and gifts, that is what the Apostle Paul said is the new normal of the Church Age. So far, this economy of life has not ended, and the rules still apply.
Thus, when you are tempted to accuse a successful man of doing evil because he is handed a gift by an admirer, mind your own business please.
Now, if you feel you have earned a ride in my Buick, you need to fill out an application in triplicate and submit it to the Committee On Free Rides for consideration. If they approve and declare you worthy of double honor, I will loan you my Buick for a trip to Lake Travis. All I ask is that you fill the tank before you return it. Justice Clarence Thomas has my Buick booked after you are done with it.
FULL DISCLOSURE:
In the interest of integrity and transparency, I need to tell you that nearly every Sunday I get a free ride in my son-in-law's and daughter's luxury truck to the Baptist church in Austin, Texas. I can assure you that if there is ever a conflict between my truck rides and my giving a verdict on any matter pertaining to you, I shall recuse myself and defer to Jorge Rodriguez my neighbor.
SO THERE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GREENWASHING AND ORGANIC COFFEE

GREENWASHING

This term describes the propaganda factor in the marketing of organic food in the USA. Organic food is popping up everywhere. The reason is that farmers far away are cheating, and government is looking the other way. Chemical companies are clearly bribing government inspectors in other nations. We have to wonder if the USDA is also playing dirty tricks and certifying fake organic farms.
There is also the cheating factor. Some organic farmers spray their crops, even doing so at night, and they are allegedly organic. I know farmers cheat because I know people who caught them. I also know that Kenya AA is never organic, regardless of what they claim. This is because inspectors are all taking bribes and approving pesticide sprayed crops. Kenya is my home country from long ago, but I believe all coffee production around the world is not truly organic.
The fake food we try to avoid is the product of intentional fraud.
As to coffee, if it is the same price or near that of non-organic coffee, it is NOT organic. Growing organic crops of any kind results in a much higher price. The problem with this test for quality is that some food producers intentionally buy non-organic, label it as organic, and then price it higher. The FDA is supposed to catch them and prosecute them. But, only a small percent of imported food is inspected.
I will not give up on organic food at the store, but I also take detox supplements because I assume a lot of organics are not real, and I am being regularly poisoned by food chemicals. I also have to assume that many of our modern health disorders are caused by the chemicals we consume.
The video shows some of the things happening in the coffee trade. It is very sad.

HE WAS A TRAMP
It was the height of the Great Depression. Men left home by the hundreds of thousands to travel to far places to get work and send money home. Seldom did it work out very well, and they had to keep traveling to survive. They were not vagrants. Like homeless people today, they were out of work, "down on my luck," and they would work at any job for a little money.
The tramp came to the door of my Grandmother's home and knocked. My Dad, a young boy, was nearby and watched his mother do what she had done for many tramps. The man said, "Mame, I wonder if you could spare a cup of tea for a traveling man?"
My grandmother told him to have a seat on the porch steps, and she went inside and made him a cup of tea and a sandwich. After she gave it to the man, he turned to my Dad, smiled, and told him, "Ask for a little, and you might get more."
My Dad told his brothers and sisters what happened, and that line got to be a well used line in my Dad's family. Dad brought it to our family also.
Modern advertising has hammered the message home that what you have is not enough. You deserve more. The whole culture is flaming with discontent as two or three generations of Americans now demand to have more. What we have is never enough. And, if we don't get it now, we take out a loan at the bank and go up to our nostrils in debt in order to have more stuff.
It was not always so:
Philippians 4:11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Not all your WANT, but all you NEED. We who follow the carpenter of Nazareth must soon learn to be content with our needs being provided for by God. In the end, he often give us more than we need, but it is rude to demand more than we need from God.
Let us be content with enough.

Ask for a little, and you might get more.

 HOW TO RECOGNIZE A REAL BIBLE SCHOLAR

First, the faux Bible scholar:
He is full of himself. He listens as well as a door knob listens to you. When he speaks you can tell he was not paying attention to the person he was talking to because he goes right off topic and dives into his favorite hobby horse fixation. When in a group, he is the final authority on any topic brought up, even if he has virtually no experience in the area of discussion.
The faux intellectual will use big theological terms that you don't know, and when you ask what such a word means, he will show you deep pity only because you are a dumb hick burp unable to rise to the heavenlies with him. He will also invent a few buzz words himself because he is just that wise. The English language is simply not developed well enough to satisfy his level of intellect.
Some of these faux scholars will not demand to be addressed as "Doctor," but many Fundamental Baptist scholars will boldly demand to be given any titles they imagine they have earned. I say "earned" with tongue in cheek. Most of these Fundamentalist Doctors got their doctorate from Pioneer Seminary which operates out of the basement of another "Doctor" in Colorado. Pay the $25 fees and tuition, and get a doctoral diploma next week. Full credit is given for "life experience," which may be that you know how to change the oil in your car, and you caught a record bass in a fishing contest in Bimidji, Minnesota.
Now, the real Bible scholar:
This man is pushing no agenda. He only speaks with authority on topics which he has seriously studied and researched. When you talk to him he keeps eye contact and listens intently. When he speaks, he answers your question, even if it is not his favorite topic. If you ask a question he has not studied, he will tell you so and ask to be allowed to not answer. He will then tell you of a real scholar who can answer your question.
The real Bible scholar wants to serve, and when you leave him, you feel you were indeed served. He never makes a large statement without backing it up with Bible references, and he is much more comfortable quoting the Apostle Paul than some guru from a Baptist Seminary.
If your five year old asks, "Daddy, what does the hypostatic union mean?" you can send Johnny to the real scholar, and he will explain this complicated doctrine to him at the level your five year old can understand. Real scholars do not ask to be delivered from dealing with children..... they love them.
The real Bible scholar has not jumped on anyone's band wagon, he does not beat drums on behalf of any denomination or Bible College, and he rejects any effort to make a cult leader of him. He is content to teach, and he rejects any efforts to make him the leader of any movement.
Finally, when you leave a session with a real Bible scholar, you will feel like God sent you a friend who left you thinking clearer thoughts about the Word of God. He will not cause you to long to be as wise and erudite as he is. He will leave you wanting to be more like Jesus.
When you introduce a real Bible scholar before he speaks, do not make the mistake of flattering him. He may get up and totally reject everything you said about him. You will end up with egg on your face. I have seen this, and the poor diddle head who did it looked like a fool.
The Bible scholar's life verses are:
Psalms 119:15 I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways.
16 I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.

QUACK DOCTOR ATTACKS COVID VACCINE AND PROMOTES HIS VACCINE


BELGIUM DOCTOR'S QUACK VIDEO ATTACKING VACCINATIONS NEEDS TO BE REFUTED


This is a very compelling video because the doctor gets some things right. Dr. G Vanden Bossche is claiming that all vaccinations must stop and let Covid run wild in order to build up immunity. Never mind that millions of people would die. He also claims to have developed a vaccine that will stop all diseases. The vaccine does not exist, he has not published anywhere, and he is a veterinarian by trade.

I posted this because it is claims like this which people seem to prefer to believe more than the facts that are proving that vaccinations are working.

Here is the Bossche video on Facebook that is going viral worldwide.

SNOPES on Vanden Bossche

MEDIKA on Vanden Bossche

ESTADAO on the doctor. Right click and hit "translate" for English

Here is proof graphically that the Covid vaccines are working

Here is a video discussion of G Vanden Bossche and his bogus claims.

HE WON'T GO AWAY

Salon has an article on Trump in which they show that he is trying to take absolute control of the Republican Party by his antics. So, how does his claim that he will be reinstated in office in August help him take power over the Republicans?

If does not. Making bold impossible claims is Trumps MO, and has been for many years. No business man, and later, President, has been more expansive is exalting himself. This is the tactic of dictators like Adolph Hitler and Benito Mussolini and Fidel Castro. 

The plan is to demonize any Republican who does not lock step and Sig Heil the dictator. Michael Flynn, Sidney Powell, and Giuliano are Trump's brown shirts who will hunt down and threaten Republican leaders. What we have in Maro Lago is a government in exile, and what we have in the Republican Party is a bunch of wimps who are not willing to bell the cat.

So, Salon tells us that, because of the dynamics of the Trump juggernaut, he will NOT be going away soon. Here is the last paragraph in the Salon article:

So no, I don't think Trump believes he'll be reinstated in August. I don't think Trump really believes anything, not in the way that most people hold beliefs at least. He has a purely instrumentalized view of the world: "Beliefs" aren't sincerely held, but just another tool to manipulate others. He never asks himself "is this true?" so much as "what will it get me to say this?" And when it comes to this particular conspiracy theory (the stolen election), the answer may sadly be "quite a lot." Salon

If you are Bible believer, and if you want to live in peace again some day soon, you need to pray to God to remove Trump from his present power as a potential fascist dictator.

If this irritates any of my readers, please remember the time during Jesus' ministry when King Herod stood before a rally of his supporters and massively praised himself. If you had been in the crowd would you have joined the mob screaming, "It is the voice of a god"? Think about that as you keep cheering on this man who is trying to burn the US Constitution and make himself supreme ruler of the USA.

TREASON


FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP, SEVERAL OF HIS POWER PEOPLE FROM HIS ERA IN THE PRESIDENCY, AND QANON ARE PLANNING A COUP IN AUGUST AND OPENLY PROPHESYING THAT THEY WILL PUT TRUMP BACK IN POWER.

Never in American history has such a thing happened in plain sight and out in the public square. These people are bold in their rebellion, and they seem to think they can do as they please and trash the US Constitution. Sadly, Joe Biden may not be man enough to stand them down and bring them to justice. If he does, the result could be revolution.

There is only one name for this sort of folly..... TREASON.

I sense, from what I read on Facebook, that some people who claim to be Bible believers actually crave a contest in which law and order are totally destroyed by the Lunatic Right. It is entirely possible to see the evil in this plan while being a Conservative and a Christian.

We all need to be more thoughtful about who we befriend in these times of anarchy and national chaos. If your pastor is promoting this rebellion, he is a devil, and you need to get out of that church before you are added to the list at Homeland Security. History, and living in the Third World, tell me that a person can end up in prison for making the wrong friends during anarchy.

Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.
2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves DAMNATION.
3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:
4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.


The power is President Joe Biden. He bears the sword. DEAL WITH IT, or receive "damnation." The Greek word for "damnation" is used for a court ruling. Thus, you could find yourself one day in prison for taking up the cause of the Trump junta.

Do you really want to live in a third rate banana republic? You need to read the article below, and ask yourself if this is really what Jesus Christ would do?

HOW TO SHUT DOWN AMERICA

The gas pipeline is down, and the East Coast of the USA is in a panic. 

This tells me that a total attack on the whole nation's pipelines could shut the country down. The problem is, Leftist Democrats do not like to pick on the enemy. They believe that if they feed America to the crocodile, the crocodile will eat them last. And, he will.

So, we may be on our own as to survival. Plan accordingly.

HAPPY MUSIC BY THE MOST BORED BAND IN MEXICO

This band is a riot. They play well, and the music is a happy little tune. But, how can a band be so bored with life? Perhaps this was played in an empty studio with no audience due to Covid. Thus, another casualty of the plague.

THINKING DOWN THE ROAD AND VACCINE PASSPORTS

Florida's Governor has signed an order prohibiting vaccination passports being used in Florida. In principle, that would seem like a good thing. We do not need an ID system of any kind in America beyond the various ones we now have. The evil in this is that people are free to refuse the vaccine, but with the passport, those same people will soon find they cannot buy food or do business, go to work, or go to school. So, the Governor is doing the right thing.

But, down the road.....?

The Florida Governor is a powerful force in the Republican Party, and he is being suggested to run for President in 2024. Democrat states and officials will make a politically motivated knee jerk response by requiring the passport. The Covid political chaos will mushroom as people from one state cannot function in the next Democrat state. This will divide America in an extreme way which will result in anarchy, either physically or socially and politically.

America is headed for massive rebellion. When centrist Democrats have had enough, they will be ready for escape from the radical left and Joe Biden. A man like the Florida Governor could design a movement that crossed party lines and produce a base for a Fascist nationalist movement. Nationalism would be the theme. Ever heard of that before? I believe this is where America is going. I have a friend who is a history major and teacher of American history, and he feels this is a real possibility if things do not return to the old balanced ways soon.

If you are a Bible believer, rather than joining the mob that evolves in the coming days, how about standing for Bible based Christian zeal? The Lutherans and Catholics in Germany let Adolph Hitler sucker them into nationalism, and you know what happened.

Pray that a Supreme Court ruling is soon given against forced vaccine passports. That would stop this juggernaut. 

But, we must expect Biden and the far left to keep trying to force America into a Marxist type socialist state. Bible believers must decide now if they will join either extreme or stay the course as the Church of Jesus Christ.

John 7:24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
21 Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!


Romans 8:6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

HOW THE MODERNA VACCINE WORKS

The terror of a serious reaction from the second shot is real. This doctor explains why that is what we can expect for many people and why it is actually a good thing.

He makes it clear that a reaction is not the same as getting Covid, so the deadly effects of Covid will not be part of the reaction. But, a very uncomfortable reaction can be expected to the second shot.

The problem with Dr. Fauci and the talking heads on high is that they refuse to talk straight to America. They want to sell vaccines at Moderna and Pfizer, so the truth is withheld. This caused people to suspect that something evil is being perpetrated. Again, Kings and Presidents are liars, and they have been for thousands of years. So, doctors like this guy pick up the slack and help. What he says makes sense as best I can understand it.

CAUTION: Some rough language.

THE FAR SIDE MOCKS AT EVOLUTION

See if you can figure it out. You need to start with the String Theory, go on to Schrödinger's Cat, the Chicken or the Egg Theory, and so forth.

And, these boys have the nerve to mock at Creationism.

The only thing missing here is the Landscape Theory, which is admitted to be based purely on assumption, the way we assume Santa Clause is real by bringing him back from October to January and posting him in a chair at the mall in his fantasy red suit.

The Landscape Theory ASSUMES that our universe is just a pea sized bit of junk in the midst of millions of universes beyond our acre. There is no evidence of such a place, and there is no hope of going there for a visit. But, the thing about the Landscape Theory that charms the Christ haters, like Sam Harris and Richard Dawkins, is this..... Once you assume a fantasy world is real, you can assign it has physical laws that are in total violation of our own local physical laws. That is then reversed to claim that somewhere in the vast forever is a place where the First Law of Thermodynamics is violated. This then implies that our universe could have come into existence from nothing. Why can this be done? Well, once you start building on assumption, any insane logic can be added to the edifice. Like, once you believe that the early Church celebrated Easter, the feast of the goddess Esther, you can add anything..... rabbits that lay eggs, peeps, and green eggs and ham. You KNOW peeps are real..... you can find them at Wal Mart.]

The way to measure the ongoing "reality" of any fantasy is to see how many papers are published on one of these cosmic fantasy theories, and how many are published on the Sun or Jupiter. The Landscape Theory, according to David Berlinsky, has thousands of papers published on it. The sun is old hat and is very seldom published these days. This is because the only reality to a fantasy is based on everyone talking about it. Stop publishing on it, and it will simply go away, like Santa does to a twelve year old skeptic. It also helps if the gurus of our universities keep chattering about the Landscape Theory and Schrödinger's Cat.

Quick, Easter is coming. Have you colored your eggs yet? The kiddies need the artifacts of the fantasy to keep the illusion going. There is nothing harder on religious zeal than to have Saint Christopher demoted to the role of a generic Italian peasant. But, please leave him there, hanging from the mirror, and maybe he will still exist. Pray to him regularly, and maybe he will pop back into existence.

Please, give us a sincere Auuuuuum for the guru. Either that, or enroll in his university to learn the mystic secret.

If you think I am mean on Monday, just wait until we get to Friday.

NO BITE, NO HANGOVER

The latest novelty for bar hoppers is the Sans Bar. It offers only drinks and cocktails made with no alcohol. What a revolutionary idea...... being able to drive home without getting a DUI, and waking up without a hangover.

It is always a hoot to Bible believers to see the ungodly world try to apply Bible based truths to their perverted moral world.

Proverbs 20:1 Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.

So, now we have a new "Baptist Standard" issue. Will Pharisee pastors make a law forbidding their witless lambs from patronizing the local Sans Bar? Will they have to order only coffee and Dr. Pepper, or can they order a kosher screw driver? Just when you have the little red rule book from Bob Jones University properly revised for the "present stress," here comes an alternative to the law.

I just hope the proprietors have come up with alternatives that have some character. Potato water in the place of vodka would be a bit bland.

Ironically, the two groups that stand to benefit the most from this innovation are Baptists and Muslims.

Now, the mega church can add a dry bar to their Starbucks counter.

Never let it be said that Steve Van Nattan is shy about rocking the boat occasionally.

SIG HEIL, MEIN KÕNING, HERR YOSEF BIDEN


"The Ministry for State Security (Stasi), was the official state security service of the German Democratic Republic (East Germany). It has been described as one of the most effective and repressive intelligence and secret police agencies ever to have existed." Wikipedia

Sorry if the quote is totally alien to your heritage. It is not my fault if you were asleep in World History class.

Joe Biden's new mask police are nothing short of a carbon copy of the East German state police (Stasi). This is NOT provided for in the US Constitution. What the Generals in the Pentagon refused to do for Donald Trump, Joe Biden has managed to do by Executive Order.

It is so terribly sad that the only way our President can think to deal with the Covid epidemic is to bash up the peasants. This is a very old story to any history majors watching. The kings of Europe did the exact same thing long ago during the Black Plague and other epidemics. The dictators of Africa and Asia do the same thing today.

The problem is, you people cannot be trusted to do the right thing. Sure, there are jerks out there who refuse to mask up when they go out and about, and they do not give a flip if they infect some senior citizen. But, since when does the nation dive into totalitarian Marxist madness because of a few brats?

And, if Biden blows this one past the Supreme Court, he may very well send his state police to social gatherings, church services, picnics, beaches, ball games, and restaurants, anywhere where people are gathered. They may even force entry into your home if they see more than two cars parked at the curb. And, your state governor will be iced by the Supreme Court so that he cannot stop this trick.

No one is talking about the cost of a national police force. This thing could become a monster, once the Dems see how much power they are gaining over the masses. AND, it could easily bust the national economy or result in bankruptcy of Medicare and Social Security as Biden hits them to fund his state cops.

President Biden may be doing this to bait the right wing crazies so that they attack and give him an excuse to declare Martial Law. I admit that is a bit conspiratorial, but it fits the model of lust for power in 90% of all Dems.

Tell me, wise reader.............

What happens when you tell people they will be prosecuted for not doing what the great Wizard wishes? Right, they take every opportunity to disobey the Wizard. They might have donned the mask yesterday out of social pressure, or just to pamper their fearful friends, but now they will refuse to comply in order to assert their rights. The whole thing gets worse, and a lot of people are criminalized to the glory of the Wizard. Historically, the next thing is detention centers for offenders. That HAS happened in America when Franklin D Roosevelt put Japanese Americans into a concentration camp simply because he suspected they would do evil during WW II.

The frightening thing is that the TSA are not trained in physical law enforcement, but their behavior in the past tells me they will get rough, and people will be hurt and battered by them. The article linked to below makes it very clear that Uncle Joe did not write up his order in enough detail, so the TSA agents will be a law unto themselves. This is a prefect storm for America. The subways of NYC could become Hell on earth. LAX could become an armed camp.

CAUTION: There may be attacks on these TSA people. Do not hang around to see what happens. You will end up on a list which will not be helpful for your destiny. If you work for the TSA, understand this from the dictator Napoleon himself, "When you are given an unlawful order, you are honor bound to disobey the order and take the consequences." The answer, "I am just doing my job" is NOT a moral alibi. So was the Stasi Communist policeman, doing his job, who killed his East German neighbors. So were Himmler and Goering.

So, I will wear my mask now. Indeed, I have worn it all the time before. But now, I have the comfort of knowing that Uncle Stasi Biden approves of me. What a warm fuzzy feeling.


Bible believers: Pray that God will restrain President Biden by any means possible. 

1 Timothy 2:1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

This editor in NO WAY condones not wearing the mask in public. It has been proven that you protect others if you wear the mask. The fact that masks are imperfect only proves what we already knew..... this is an imperfect world. Wear the mask, stupid. And, if you are a Bible believer, you have no business railing on the TSA agents. They are out of line big time, but you have no business letting them drive you to be a vulgar jerk. Give them a Gospel tract, and keep moving.
