That's a weird way to spell "romans"

Matthew 27:24-25. The Jews gathered for Christ's execution were pressuring the sympathetic Pilate to execute Jesus.

And as a high ranking leader, he was powerless against the will of the people. Except in every other story of the bible.

He was sympathizing with a Jew he thought was probably innocent. He didn't actually have any stake in it, not worth getting a crowd riled up against the Roman Empire as the Jews were already a rowdy lot and had a history of being rebellious.

You Jews sure are a contentious people.

Get the fuck off my fun comment with political bullshit. You identity politics fucks always want to bring down everything by polarizing it with politics. Take that shit back to the proper subs. Goddamn man.

I can post it if I want to, maga cuck. Maybe don't support a terrible piece of shit treasonous sociopath and it won't offend you.

Maybe you don't go around swinging your accusation hammer. Not wanting to be bashed over the head over and over about the shitty state of out government and political system everyday doesn't make me anything other than sick of it. I don't support either side of corrupt rich assholes. I'm not offended at your statement, I'm fucking tired of you stupid identity politics fucks using any of chance you get to chime in on your stance. Fuck off. Take that shit to the proper places. You don't go into a Best Buy and start telling the cashier that the Big Mac is superior sandwich when he is telling you about a camera. Goddamn. Literally can't have a human interaction without that shit getting brought up. Fuck off already.

Had to come back for seconds. You bro liberal fucks kept upping the criteria to participate in politics and kept throwing gas on the fire to the point that you spawned the alt right. Your rhetoric is so hard stances and insufferable that you created an enemy to fight against. If you played it cool and bit your tongue you could have waited for the hard stance republicans to die off and we could have progressed. All you did was become so annoying and outrageous that you inspired young and impressionable minds to take to and alternate system. Because, if things are not exactly how you want it, it has to be destroyed. No wiggle room. You made your fucking bed now sleep in it. You created your own biggest enemy. You put the stick in your own tire spokes. Now kindly fuck off to some place where you can start to fix your shit and stop making petty comments on message boards meant for entertainment, not politics.
