I fucking knew that girl who got lit on fire from highschool. I even went to her house once for a party. She isn't from Chicago either, she's from Indiana.She had the BLM profile picture thing on her Facebook too which, while ironic, doesn't mean she was a full blown leftist and deserved it. It's a very rural area; and we didn't have many leftist teachers. And it was in the same town as a private Christian college. Her friends were mostly conservative Christians too. Only other thing I remember about her is that she was into overwatch and pc gaming.
Regardless of how she voted, we need to protect our own. It's a fucking tragedy what happened to her and it's a weird feeling seeing this happen to someone I know.
Not a single one of us is without blemish, mistake, or sin. If we are to be mocked by our own brethren after being tortured by the cruelty of our corrupted world, under the guise of the callous pointing toward our mistakes, then we don't truly love our people, we've already lost, and we deserve to lose our nations. Hardship should bring us closer together, not fracture us further. Fortunately, this lesson will become increasingly clear, and the callous will become the ones mocked and ostracized, for the poisonous fruits they give freely.
It's a microcosm for these women, as well. They think they're fine because the government provides them with everything so they don't need help. Right up until they need something that the government *can't* provide, like personal safety.
It's tragic, to be sure, but you can't help someone who doesn't understand that they need help, be it a woman or an addict.
We will continue to get more homeless people until we figure out some sort of final solution to the actual problem which is Faggotry itself.
Thank you.
But it's not when times are easy that words such as yours must be held closest. It's when times are difficult (sometimes beyond measure) that it becomes imperative to remember. Thank you for the reminder, my brother in Christ.
> I must confess this year has been a particularly difficult one for me (mostly due to a multitude of events out of my control that harmed my family, myself, and a few friends who are near kin) and I know my heart has hardened as a result.
I pray to the Lord that He will lay His hands upon you and your family, and heal and bless you all.

It's one of the most difficult things for me, too. I try to be a good person, but in this kind of world, where so many people are insular, destructively selfish, and easily take advantage of the kindness of others, it can be rough some days. I retreated inward to protect myself many years ago, because I was taken advantage of so often. But, the Lord has been urging me to protect myself less in that regard, to serve Him and His people who notice such things.

Love you brother. It's always good to hear from you, even in difficult times. Especially in difficult times.
