Question: Comment: The Church does not, and should not, condone sinful behavior as something good. This stance in no way can be equated with what Mateen did to these people at Pulse. That action was driven by hate, and hate alone.

This goes to a larger piece which addressed this ideological hate with rallies across the country this past weekend. The Left reflexively came to the defense of shariah adherent ideologues who have no problem killing homosexuals. In fact, they take it as a duty. WHY?

Answer: Threat


Question: Comment: Nope

Answer: Non-threat


Question: Comment: When Congress chooses to not fund "explicitly pro-gun control research" that is a bad thing.  That would be like Congress choosing to not fund any research that could discredit the evidence that man is causing climate change.  That would be extremely stupid and I personally believe the evidence that man is causing climate change.  However, I still want the government to fund the research that may debunk it it because it is important for the government's policies in the future.  Same is true here, if a decision is made to not fund any research which is "pro-gun control" - which isn't what is happening - than Congress is choosing to blind itself from research which could guide policies in the future.  That may be more gun control, but it could also be to find that current gun restrictions are not having the desired effect and should be lifted.  Who will know if the research is not done?

Answer:
Non-threat
