Who had the brilliant idea to have him follow a youth choir with all those young girls??

At least they got all the kids out of there before Moore showed up.

(But first...let's pass the plates around and collect a little cash!)

I know these people; I suspect they're Pentecostal or some similar sect. I have relatives who are very much like that. I don't get it but hey, it's their way.

If there actually was a God I think Moore would be going up in flames about now.

They had a guy come out and preach, then another guy came out and gave accolades, then they played a video of Moore's life, and how great a guy he was. The format, layout, and overall presentation was very similar to this:

Every word makes me more assured that even if he hadn't molested those girls he'd have been dangerous.

He wants a theocracy with him as the savior.

They hold events like this on their property but not at a official capacity. It's the same reason like 60-70% of polling locations are at churches. They are just everywhere so using them for political events is overlooked.

republican kristofascism is gearing up, and losing a pedophile or diaper-sex freak here and there will be no brake whatsoever on their plot against American democracy. They really are the TaliBornAgain moral equivalent of the darkside, fanatical, rampaging Taliban.
