Attention, patriotic Americans!

Big event coming in 2020!
No, not that one, this one:

Notorious lefties like "Corporate executives, lobbyists and representatives from major industry groups like the Chamber of Commerce, the National Retail Federation and the International Council of Shopping Centers" have been trying to undermine the efforts of Your Government to use "data from the question [to] help the Department of Justice enforce provisions of the Voting Rights Act.". That last is straight from Your Secretary of Commerce! Do you want rapists and murderers voting for Your Next President?

Please note that patriotic entities like Walmart Inc, Alphabet Inc’s Google, Amazon.com Inc and many others did the right thing. They screwed their courage to the sticking place and ...
"either declined to offer a statement for this story or did not respond to requests for comment."

The article does note that "corporate America finds itself in an unlikely alliance with immigrant advocacy groups that have sued to block the question on the basis it could scare immigrants out of participating, and therefore cost their communities funds and political representation."
Well, OK, but if we were supposed to care about them, they wouldn't be immigrants, right?

My government was once faced with an immigration problem. Solomon prayed to have it dealt with at 2Chr 6:32,33. Any non-Jewish Christians out there? You've benefited from the prayer. Invitation still open; extended again this Friday evening.

Link works.

If major businesses don't open such in migrant community areas, it will give the immigrants the chance to open their own "mom & pop" stores there instead, serving the community better than having large corporations pulling money out of community instead. Consider the 'Walmart Effect'.

Theocracy vs Democracy

"when they come and pray toward this temple, then hear from heaven, your dwelling place. Do whatever the foreigner asks of you, so that all the peoples of the earth may know your name and fear you,"

And what happened there when the "foreigner" failed to "assimilate" according to the temple and it's laws? The Theocracy became even more corrupted.

Considering "theocracy" means 'government
Apr 17, 2019 1:50PM PDT

by God', considering you and I are supposed to worship the God of the Bible, considering my leader (and one of your god(s)) said we should pray for theocracy to come on earth as it is in heaven ...
Sure you don't want a mulligan on that?

BTW my research shows that's another topic on which I've already showed you the Bible's view. Done. Happy
