I took my weekly stroll amongst the nutjobs on Facebook and was shocked to see Being Conservative, the biggest and most popular conservative page on Facebook, selling a t-shirt that appears to incite violence.
This little gem is called “The Prayer of Freedom.”
A prior version featured a skull on the front, but apparently their “religious” audience didn’t like the skull, so they did a reprint of the shirt without the skull.
Their fans are predictably rabid, of course. Surnames and images redacted to protect the profoundly stupid.
Oh hey, even though it’s a limited time collectible, you can buy two and save on shipping. With cold weather coming up, you can also get the same design on a hoodie. Oh the irony.
What does this “prayer” have to do with God and Christianity? Are they even practicing the Christian religion? This is insanity.?Are they seriously encouraging their followers to take up a stance of not only being willing to die for the cause, but being willing to kill to protect their cause?
I’ve embedded the post below. Y’all go give them a nice Liberal America hug.
