Allen West and his Christian persecution complex. [View all]


More ominous signs of Christian persecution

...There was a young man doing the checkout and another Walmart employee came over and put up a sign, “No alcohol products in this lane.” So being the inquisitive fella I am, I used my additional set of eyes — glasses — to see the young checkout man’s name. Let me just say it was NOT “Steve.”

I pointed the sign out to Aubrey and her response was a simple question, how is it that this Muslim employee could refuse service to customers based on his religious beliefs, but Christians are being forced to participate in specific events contrary to their religious beliefs?

Boy howdy, that is one astute young lady.

Imagine that, this employee at Walmart refused to just scan a bottle or container of an alcoholic beverage — and that is acceptable. A Christian business owner declines to participate or provide service to a specific event — a gay wedding — which contradicts their faith, and the State crushes them.

EDITOR’S UPDATE: We spoke to the Walmart store, and apparently employees under 21 years old are prohibited from selling cigarettes and alcohol. ...



So, Allen got his undies in a wad thinking the kid was a Muslim. But it turns out the kid was just too young to ring up booze.


Why should he let a little error like that stifle his Christian indignation? And when he finds out it's just store policy, he not only leaves to post for all to see, he doubles down on his stupidity.

They get freaked out by Muslims not wanting to touch bacon or gin at their jobs because Allah said so. But it's great for a pharmacist to deny a woman Plan B because their God said so.


I wonder if these people see that they are cut from the same crazy cloth?
