LUKE 22 (RSV)
35 And he said to them, "When I sent you out with no purse or bag or sandals, did you lack anything?" They said, "Nothing." 36 He said to them, "But now, let him who has a purse take it, and likewise a bag. And let him who has no sword sell his mantle and buy one. 37 For I tell you that this scripture must be fulfilled in me,
Granted I am taking that verse a little out of context but not out of its meaning. If someone takes my cloak I am suppose to give him my shoes too but RAPE AND MURDER ARE DIFFERENT.
I knew someone would say something about the whole "own a gun thing" Don't forget I am in Alabama we get one issued at birth. (Just Kidding, I don't want to make any southern anti NRA libs getting mad at me for that JOKE)

Hey, isn't that whole "turning the other cheek" thing in the Bible too? I mean, I could be wrong since I'm a non-Christian "lib" but I really thought it was.
