You're not a true Christian if you believe it's OK to sexually abuse 1000's of kids, including an 18 month old baby (still in diapers) and then cover it up and call it "horse play".
What was it, 2500 women in Europe? "Multiculturalism" is apparently supporting women by introducing the most patriarchal and oppressive cultures to women to the western world and excusing their behavior for fear of being called a racist publicly. P.C. is a cultural cancer.
My other half had a 'hunting partner' named Barry who was a Jesuit priest. Barry wouldn't play in Sacramento so they'd ride their bikes to the San Francisco baths in their heydey. Barry's superiors tolerated his behavior because he could squeeze more $$$ from the poor congregations that he worked than other priests working wealthier neighborhoods. I can't remember if Barry died of AIDS but Mike was asked to leave his funeral which was held at his church.
Today, in a case of "liberal tolerance," an "empathetic and compassionate" "liberal" threatened to dox and swat me via ICE due to caring about my rights.
Talk to a lawyer about that. Doubt there's anything you can do, but having some kind of documentation on file might be useful.
Since I don't really do social media, I don't get that kind of thing, and a personal threat of extortion, to my face? Either not going to happen because progressives are Mob creatures and individually cowardly, or it's a serious situation that the police will be involved with when I call them to come and take my statement. And possibly escort the ambulance. ( I am an old and crippled man, and fear I may be harmed in a physical confrontation )
Blackmail doesn't work when you are willing to be public. I can't imagine any sins I've committed that I would fear being made public, more than caving in to an extortionist. Heck, Some would get me praise in some quarters, or let me claim crazy victim status. ( Voted for Carter! Unclean! )
That doesn't mean I suggest getting hostile or confrontational with your threatening Scum. Quiet, calm, conceal don't feel. Walk away.
It's why I don't worry about Gay politicians, but fear Closeted ones, since they are easily blackmailed. ( And I'm sure Joan River's death was a coincidence )
I'm serious about the Lawyer. He will know more than I do, and may refer you to a specialist. It's almost certainly a bad idea to confront such a scum. But having a lawyer ready to serve papers?
I literally have nothing to fear. He says he was a state employee and could have my phone number and address in minutes. Good for him. He can implicate himself if he chooses to. If he decides to erase his statements I have screen shots.
He's among those "progressive" devotees that has a profound belief that ideologically, socially, and economically indenturing ethnic minorities and immigrants is in our best interest...or else.
He's the typical "liberal," believing he's the reason I'm free (literally) and that being a social authoritarian and economic fascist is his gift to the world.
He vehemently spouts his belief that Republicans hate me and want to deport me, while hating me and threatening to deport me. What madness.
He says he was a state employee and could have my phone number and address in minutes.
Ties in with the thread about blocking license plates in pictures you post. A lot of people can read what you put on line. I've been threatened here on BW. When crazy, anger and opportunity meet, bad things can happen. Sure the odds are low, but when you multiply low odds by millions of people who are online, you simply don't know.
When I took a CCW course thru the local PD, the first thing was to stand up and introduce ourselves and our reason to be there that day. Everybody had an esoteric, PC response like "I want to get more comfortable with my Weapon".
My turn came and I said "I'm too old to fight, to old to run, I want a gun". Now, I always have a gun and a 3.499" switchblade, among other knives.
It's nice to feel secure. Always be "situation aware".
If this weirdo wants to confront or harass me over disagreeing with his political beliefs over the internet, so be it. He's just some dude. I fear no man.
You realize that person told you they would commit a felony? And engage in conspiracy to commit felony?
Dude. Lawyer. Quickly. You need advice on how to contact law enforcement to protect your family and maybe put him in prison.
Maybe there's nothing to do. Probably. You still want a CYA paper trail that you did the right thing.
It's possible that not reporting threats of extortion are criminal. Not reporting a felony may be conspiracy?
Most likely there is a form to be filed by you that will do no good at all until he's arrested later after some other offense, like pedo porn, or murder. I seriously doubt you are going to get him in trouble.
But he threatened you with promises he would commit a felony, publishing data from a State database.
I had a political disagreement with someone online about 15 years or more ago. He ended up moving in right behind me (squatting in an empty house). Over the next 2 years he harassed my family, shot at my animals, unloaded a clip into my house, filed multiple fraudulent police reports against us, called CPS on us (we have no kids), tried to organize my neighbors against us, attempted to burn the neighborhood down, accused me of shooting and chasing him with a gun and many other fun things.
He was protected by the free legal foundation who got him off any and all charges.
The SO (who he hated with a passion because she is a strong outspoken female who wouldn't cower to his BS), leaped over a 6' fence in a single bound to pound the living shit out of him for shooting a pellet gun at our dogs. The police refused to charge her and he lost it and almost got shot by the local cops.
I became good friends with the Santa Cruz DA and helped build a case against this guy (we were not the first or last people he stalked), and got him locked up in mental institute for a short time.
I got the last laugh, when he died a horribly painful death due to an unknown illness.
When I spoke out against the guy his deadbeat family threatened to sue me for slander and I dared them publicly to "bring it on". The DA sent them a letter informing them of the facts and that they were in violation of certain harassment laws. They faded into the background and we never heard from them again.
All of this because I stood up for my political beliefs online.

I suspect it's likely because you rejected his "compassion" and "empathy" via government sanctioned oppression, authoritarianism, and mandatory involuntary programs.
I prod these people to be honest...and when they're forced to elaborate on their views...they get angry. How dare one question their motives and objectives...or ask them to confront the implications of their ideology. It's for your own good!!!
Most of those types have grown silent as of late...they tend to be family or friends of friends. They simply want to be free push their views and expect to not be challenged. To challenge them is to oppose their entire world view which is also tied to their emotional state and ego.
I continually describe these ideologies as Religious. The worst cliche religious. Give bad name to faithful people religious.
Intolerant, violent jihadists. I'm not talking fundamentalists in Islam, that's a different thread. Mob action cowards and mentally ill stalkers.
I am openly for marriage, as a conservative ideal, to bring stability and reduce promiscuity. Love is love. Who doesn't matter as long as it's adults. Think of the children.
I don't think it a good thing to force a anyone to bake cakes or make sandwiches that offend their faith. There is a legal issue in refusing to serve people because they are a member of a group but no one is going to use a Muslim owner deli for refusing to sell ham sandwiches.
Thus it is obvious that the current use of civil rights to shut up Christians and conservatives is a biased lie.
The famous "liberal" tolerance, AKA blatant political and ideological double standards.
The basis of leftist orthodoxy is in attacking the very foundations of free western society. Very old tricks used to rehash failed ideas using unclever twists.
Chicago has been the poster child for the futility of "gun control" for years and the butt of many a joke. I suppose at some point someone has to confront reality under that level of scrutiny and public pressure.

I think it's time that Atheism be called what it is, a religious faith. What??? 1) Because atheism pertains to God, i.e. it is "religious" (in this context). 2) It is a "faith" because the belief that God does not exist requires as much (or more) faith than the belief that God does exist. See philosophy of science for explanation of this.
So, why do atheists think their religious faith should take precedence over other religious faiths? Probably because they're zealots, but that's not really a legitimate reason. They mistakenly think their atheism is the absence of religious faith, and thus they pretend to be oppressed by others' faith. Sorry, not true. It's really just that they want to use the power of the state to enforce practice of their faith over others' faiths. That is NOT what the first amendment was written to accomplish. If they want that, they should go found a theocracy somewhere based on their own religious faith. (That may have already been tried, comrade.)
I dabble in atheism and it is entirely practical to characterize it as a religion. Atheists definitely think their own religious ideas should govern their own lives, just as Christians think their lives should be governed by Christian ideals. There is no requirement to practice atheism in public life, just as there is no requirement to practice Christianity or Islam in public.
My post stemmed from the American Thinker article which Aesquire linked, about atheists' demand that a Christian general be removed from his command because he had openly expressed Christian beliefs on his private website (not at work).
I think this is just another manifestation of the notion that many atheists seem to have that first amendment protections against discrimination against atheists by believers means that the government MUST discriminate against believers. Or, at the very least, believers must never be allowed to admit that they have any belief. You know, they should be required to stay in the closet and do their dirty praying behind closed doors,if they must.
My former boss was of that opinion. He was absolutely confident that it was not only proper, but constitutionally necessary to discriminate against Christians as supreme court nominees, because they might be influenced by their faith.
The constitution does not prohibit God in a public space, it forbids the establishment of an official state religion. See England circa 1776 for context. We’ve had two hundred years of bad rulings that have utterly altered the plain text meaning of the first amendment. Here’s hoping for an originalist supreme court.
