Listing the motives for the Palestinian militant group's Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, he accused Jews of "bringing red cows" to the Holy Land.

September 24, 2017, 10:45:16 pm Psalm 51:17 says: The specific rule pertaining to the national anthem is found on pages A62-63 of the league rulebook. It states: “The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem. “During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses.”

Aluminum is a known neurotoxin that destroys cellular metabolism and function. Hundreds of studies link to the ravaging effects of aluminum. The other proteins and formaldehyde serve to activate the immune system and open up the blood-brain barrier. This is NOT a good thing."

Pastor Issued Police Citation for Speech Offending Texas University Students

A pastor was reportedly issued a police citation for speaking out against STDs in Texas. According to Christian Today, the pastor, who was an intern for Campus Ministry USA, received the citation because his speech offended students at the University of Texas at Austin.
 
A video of the incident surfaced online. A police officer told the pastor, who has been identified only by the first name Joshua, “We had somebody that was offended by the gestures you were making."
 
He continued, "And that's our job – to make sure that doesn't happen, because these are students just walking in this mall right here. So the job here is to write you up as a citation, disorderly conduct, for offending someone.”
 
"It doesn't matter, freedom of speech. Someone was offended – that's against the law. I don't want to argue with you. That's against the law," he finished.
 
Brother Jed Smock, head of Campus Ministry USA, reported the citation was dropped after a lawyer called police on behalf of the preacher.
 
Ari Cohn of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education said, "If offending someone on campus is now grounds for criminal citations, students wishing to express themselves will much more likely censor themselves, or simply refrain from speaking at all.”
