Here's what teabagfuckheads have posted in return any time I've posted that in an open forum: "Well, we're supposed to do that voluntarily! Jesus didn't want government to do it!"

It's written down right there in their scared Scripture. Could not be clearer. Nothing about gays, guns or abortion, but right there in black and white about the hungry, the sick, the foreigner and the prisoner.

And they probably have a bumper sticker that says "Jesus said it. I believe it. That settle it."

But if it conflicts with their message of xenophobia, greed and hate - then all bets are off.
