TOP FIVE MOST DISGUSTING FACTS ABOUT PROPHET MUHAMMAD~WARNING NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART OR MINORS
REVEALED BY DAVID WOOD
DIRECTLY OUT OF THE KORAN & HADITH
Prophet Muhammad is revered by 1.6 billion Muslims (and many non-Muslims) as a beautiful pattern of conduct for people to follow. Nevertheless, when we examine Muhammad’s teachings and example in the Quran and Hadith, we find a number of disturbing facts that are difficult to reconcile with the Islamic claim that Muhammad was a wonderful person. In this video, David Wood (Acts 17 Apologetics) discusses the five most disgusting facts about Prophet Muhammad. (Hint: Aisha, finger-licking, tongue-sucking, not bathing, and semen stains.)

Protester Owen Shroyer was arrested on Capitol Hill earlier after he interrupted the impeachment hearings, accusing Democrats of treason for trying to remove Trump.
“Jerry Nadler and the Democrat Party are committing treason against this country! You can kick me out, but he’s the one committing crimes. You are Jerry Nadler,” Shroyer shouted.
“You’re the one committing treason. America’s done with this! America’s sick of the treason committed by the Democrat Party. We’re not going to sit here and watch you run an impeachment scam and remove our vote,” he continued while live streaming the protest.
“We voted for Donald Trump, and they’re simply removing him because they don’t like him,” added Shroyer. “Americans are sick of your impeachment scam. They’re sick of the Democrat treason. We know who committed the crimes, and it wasn’t Trump. Trump is innocent.”
Shroyer was arrested and taken to jail, despite left-wing Code Pink protesters repeatedly pulling the same kind of stunt and not being arrested.
Numerous leftist activists have confronted members of Congress to their faces and faced no retribution, while Shroyer was immediately removed and arrested for protesting from a distance.
The War Room host has now been released from prison.
Update:Owen Shroyer has been released from jail. Tune in for an interview with Shroyer and for more details around Noon Central.
Reporter and radio host Owen Shroyer was arrested after he confronted Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) and called the ongoing impeachment hearings a scam.
Shroyer, who hosts The War Room on weekdays, was arrested on Monday morning during a House Judiciary Committee hearing headed by Nadler, who said the House could vote on articles of impeachment against President Trump this week.
“Jerry Nadler and the Democrat Party are committing treason against this country, and you can kick me out, but he’s the one committing crimes! You are, Jerry Nadler!” Shroyer yelled. “…We’re not going to sit here and watch you run an impeachment scam and remove our vote!”
The arrest highlights a double standard in Washington, D.C., in which establishment-approved activists are allowed to confront congressmen in their faces, but a reporter like Shroyer is arrested for protesting a House representative from a distance.
So don’t expect Time Magazine to write a glowing piece of Shroyer anytime soon.
Interestingly, Nadler is battling for media attention on the same day the long-awaited Inspector General report is expected to be released, which examined the FBI’s actions in the early stages of Operation Crossfire Hurricane.
This story is developing.

The New York Times called for Infowars host Owen Shroyer to be banned off Twitter after he live-streamed himself disrupting House impeachment proceedings Monday morning.
On Monday, The Times asked why the social media site hasn’t taken action against Shroyer, despite other Big Tech conglomerates banning Infowars and its proprietor Alex Jones in recent years.
“Infowars, the website founded by Alex Jones that traffics in conspiracy theories, has been largely banned by Apple, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube,” The Times wrote.
“But one of the site’s personalities still managed to disrupt the House impeachment hearing on Monday, using his verified Twitter account to carry out a publicity stunt.”
“Yet Mr. Shroyer remains active on Twitter, where he has more than 120,000 followers, and effectively used the site and its streaming video service, Periscope, to promote his interruption as Mr. Nadler began his opening statement,” The Times writes, echoing efforts by CNN commentator Oliver Darcy to ban Infowars on Facebook.
Of course instead of just reporting on Owen Shroyer’s protest at the #ImpeachmentHearing the NT Times is calling for him to be banned from social media! https://t.co/GvXnRJvMzc
The so-called “stunt” included Shroyer disrupting Democrat House impeachment proceedings, where he accused House Judiciary Committee Chairman Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) of committing treason against the United States.
“Jerry Nadler and the Democrat party are committing treason against this country, and you can kick me out but he’s the one committing crimes,” Shroyer shouted during the televised hearings. “You are, Jerry Nadler – you’re the one committing treason, America is done with this. America is sick of the treason committed by the Democrat party.”
“We know who committed the crimes and it wasn’t Trump – Trump is innocent!” Shroyer yelled as he was escorted out of the committee chamber.
The Times was also perplexed at how Infowars has managed to remain influential, despite Big Tech bans on conservative content.
“Mr. Shroyer’s stunt during the widely televised hearing came despite efforts by major technology companies to wipe Infowars and most of its content from their platforms, as they struggle to contain the spread of misinformation online.”
Treading familiar ground, The Times also attempts to tie Shroyer to Sandy Hook, and does not fail to mention “Donald Trump” to Infowars based on his historic 2015 interview.
Of course, the real reason The NYT would like Infowars taken down is to be able to control and steer the narrative going into the 2020 election.

Attorney General William Barr blasted the FBI over their abuse of the FISA process outlined in the Inspector General’s long-awaited assessment of the bureau’s counterintelligence operation against Donald Trump’s presidential campaign.
“The Inspector General’s report now makes clear that the FBI launched an intrusive investigation of a U.S. presidential campaign on the thinnest of suspicions that, in my view, were insufficient to justify the steps taken,” Barr said in a statement Monday. “It is also clear that, from its inception, the evidence produced by the investigation was consistently exculpatory.”
“Nevertheless, the investigation and surveillance was pushed forward for the duration of the campaign and deep into President Trump’s administration. In the rush to obtain and maintain FISA surveillance of Trump campaign associates, FBI officials misled the FISA court, omitted critical exculpatory facts from their filings, and suppressed or ignored information negating the reliability of their principal source.”
“The Inspector General found the explanations given for these actions unsatisfactory. While most of the misconduct identified by the Inspector General was committed in 2016 and 2017 by a small group of now-former FBI officials, the malfeasance and misfeasance detailed in the Inspector General’s report reflects a clear abuse of the FISA process,” Barr added.
Additionally, U.S. attorney John Durham, who is conducting his own investigation into the origins of the Russia collusion hoax, sided with Barr’s opinion in a statement, saying he also did “not agree with some of the report’s conclusions as to predication and how the FBI case was opened.”
“I have the utmost respect for the mission of the Office of Inspector General and the comprehensive work that went into the report prepared by Mr. Horowitz and his staff,” Durham stated in the press release.
“However, our investigation is not limited to developing information from within component parts of the Justice Department. Our investigation has included developing information from other persons and entities, both in the U.S. and outside of the U.S.”
“Based on the evidence collected to date, and while our investigation is ongoing, last month we advised the Inspector General that we do not agree with some of the report’s conclusions as to predication and how the FBI case was opened,” Durham added.
Despite the mainstream media and IG Horowitz’s attempts to downplay the damning findings, the actual Justice Department leadership recognizes the FBI’s surveillance malfeasances under former Director James Comey for what they were — a politically motivated attempt to subvert the will of the American people.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s recent hospitalization has liberals panicked about 2020, as they should be; Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is already signaling that he’s prepared to confirm whoever Trump nominates, which means that liberals may become completely unhinged in a way we’ve never seen before. It’s going to be hilarious for sure!

A monstrous human rights abuse, but the international media would only care if the roles were reversed.
“No Christians Allowed: Muslim UN Officials Block Syrian Christian Refugees from Getting Help,” by Dale Hurd, CBN News, December 4, 2019:
LONDON – Christian Syrian refugees have told CBN News that they have been blocked from getting help from the United Nations Refugee Agency, the UNHCR, by Muslim UN officials in Jordan.
One of the refugees, Hasan, a Syrian convert to Christianity, told us in a phone call that Muslim UN camp officials “knew that we were Muslims and became Christians and they dealt with us with persecution and mockery. They didn’t let us into the office. They ignored our request.”
Hasan and his family are now in hiding, afraid that they will be arrested by Jordanian police, or even killed. Converting to Christianity is a serious crime in Jordan.
A clear pattern of discrimination by the United Nations refugee agency in Jordan against Christians. And it appears to be one reason that while tens of thousands of Syrian Muslim war refugees have been settled in the United States and Britain, only a small number have been Christian.
And the two governments that could stop this persecution of Christian refugees – the US and Britain – have done little to nothing about it.
A Former Archbishop of Canterbury Says “Enough”
Lord George Carey is suing Britain’s home office alleging that “politically correct” officials have been “institutionally biased” against Christian refugees. He also wants to find out why out of 60-thousand Syrian war refugees accepted into the United States and Britain in 2014, almost none were Christians.
Lord Carey’s attorney, Paul Diamond, explains the case:
“You have this absurd situation where the scheme is set up to help Syrian refugees and the people most in need, Christians who have been “genocided,” they can’t even get into the U.N. camps to get the food. If you enter and say I am a Christian or convert, the Muslim U.N. guards will block you [from] getting in and laugh at you and mock you and even threaten you.
Christian Refugee Viewed as the Enemy by Muslim UN Officials
Another Syrian refugee, Timothy, who told us he became a Christian after seeing Jesus in a dream, said he was also blocked from entering a refugee camp by Muslim UN officials.
“All of the United Nations officials, most of them, 99 percent, they are Muslims,” Timothy explained from Jordan, “and they were treating us as enemies.”
Diamond says, “Sunni Muslim officials have blocked the way. They’ve laughed at them, threatened them, said ‘You shouldn’t have converted. You’re an idiot for converting. You get what you get,’ words to that effect.”
Carey says by doing nothing, western governments are complicit in what calls “the steady crucifixion of Middle East Christians.”
“And no simple measures are taken by both the British and the American government,’ Diamond says, “It would be simple just to open up a refugee camp for religious minorities, for Christians, Yazidis, whatever they are, and they’d be safe. But no one does that.”…
Swedish attorney Gabriel Donner who represents Christian asylum seekers, says Sweden is now deporting up to one-third of Christian refugees back to Muslim nations where they are likely to be imprisoned or killed….
President Trump told CBN News in 2017 that Christian refugees would be given priority. But Muslim governments officially classify Christians as security threats, causing their asylum applications to western countries to be rejected….

Editors Note: Lunenburg County VA will vote on a 2nd Amendment Sanctuary resolution on Dec 12th, 2019.
Open Letter Supporting Lunenburg Virginia's Second Amendment Sanctuary Resolution
Lunenburg, Virginia – -(AmmoLand.com)- To whom it may concern,
I, Andrew Havens, a citizen of these United States for America and of the Commonwealth of Virginia, resident of Lunenburg County, Virginia, do hereby declare my full support for a resolution declaring Lunenburg Virginia a Second Amendment Sanctuary County.
While such action should not be necessary, I contend it is absolutely necessary for the following reasons:
A majority of politicians either currently in public office or slated to be sworn into public office on 8 January 2020 have made it known they fully intend to propose and pass unlawful legislation further restricting the rights of citizens of the commonwealth.
Said rights are God-given, guaranteed by both the Constitution for the United States of America and the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Virginia. These rights belong to the citizens by birth.
At no time has anyone elected, appointed or otherwise employed by the citizens of this commonwealth or this nation been granted authority to restrict or amend any of our God-given rights.
Such actions constitute a usurpation of authority and are therefore treasonous. Treasonous actions such as these are subject to immediate disqualification and removal from any public office and criminal charges filed.
Our constitutions – federal and state – were meant as limiting documents. The intent then and now is to limit what those selected are empowered to do in service to us citizens. In no way shape or manner were they ever intended to grant unlimited power and authority to any group or individual.
The resolution before the Lunenburg Board of Supervisors merely acknowledges our rights as citizens to stand up and claim what is rightfully ours – our birthrights.
I commend the Lunenburg Board of Supervisors for their brave stand against tyrannical politicians determined to run roughshod over our rights as citizens.
We citizens must also stand with the Board and other citizens in Virginia as well as our nation and demand not only such actions stop but the restoration of our birthright in the liberties intended by Almighty God and guaranteed by the founding documents of our nation and states.
In this informative video, Patriot Nurse discusses the gun sanctuary county movement in the news, highlighting the game of chicken being played by the Virginia Governor and Attorney General versus the people of Virginia. In times past, our forefathers recognized that their rights were not safeguarded by words on paper alone, but by their own ability to defend those rights against tyrants in every generation. From Bacon's Rebellion, to the American Revolution and the War for Southern Independence, Virginia has been the battleground and the bellwether for the people's tolerance of tyrannical oversteps.

With his petition to the AG, Jones seems afraid that Second Amendment supporters are going to come down to Norfolk and “disproportionately harm” his constituents. At least that’s the excuse he’s using instead of coming flat out and admitting he doesn’t want you armed. (Jay Jones/Facebook)
U.S.A. – -(Ammoland.com)-“A Democratic state delegate has asked Attorney General Mark Herring (D) for a formal opinion on the Second Amendment sanctuary declarations being passed in a growing number of conservative counties across the state,” the Virginia Mercury reported Dec. 2. “Del. Jay Jones, D-Norfolk, said a legal opinion could help clear up confusion on an issue that has ‘become a flashpoint across our state.’”
“The bills passed by the General Assembly and signed into law by the governor are binding for our entire Commonwealth and its citizens,” Jones complained in his letter to Herring. “The legal precedent we would set by allowing communities to selectively ignore those laws at will is alarming and indicative of the same mindset that nearly one hundred and fifty years ago led this country to dissolve into a civil war.”
See where he’s going with this? The people who want the Second Amendment upheld are the same people being painted as rightwing extremists, potential domestic terrorists and, the most damning smear of all, racists. And yes, of course, Jones played that card.
“Given the recurring incidents of gun violence in Norfolk and its surrounding areas, violence that has repeatedly been shown to disproportionately harm communities of color, it is my firm belief that it is incumbent on me as their elected representative to request action from your office on this matter,” Jones proselytized.
Just to be clear—rather than face up to the truth of who is doing the killings in his district, Jones is blaming the “disproportionate harm” committed by his Norfolk constituents on residents of counties like Tazewell, where the Board of Supervisors not only overwhelmingly passed a sanctuary resolution, but went a step further and passed a Militia resolution, both to overwhelming citizen approval. Who is kidding who?
But targeting them goes in hand with other proposed Intolerable Acts the Democrat majority is imposing. The prefiled anti-“paramilitary” edict is aimed squarely at that part of the population that believes in the Second Amendment as the ultimate check and balance retained by the people. So is the credit card gun purchase flagging bill, which postures to be about “homegrown violent extremists and other perpetrators of domestic terrorism.”
It’s curious that Jones, a politician virtually guaranteed his seat based on district demographics is complaining about Virginians in peaceable places like Tazewell County, rated “among the safest counties in the USA with 1.00 per 1,000 residents crime rate compared to national 4.69 per 1,000 average.” By comparison, Norfolk’s crime rate “was higher than in 85.2% of U.S. cities.”
It’s doubly curious that the man he’s complaining to, Mark Herring, who admitted to wearing “blackface” in college. While it’s tempting to excuse that as mere cognitive dissonance, what’s really going on is cynical manipulation of emotions by professional political con artists intent on swindling citizens out of their birthright. If there's one thing they are sincere about, it's getting more power.
They're doing that here by tarring those adhering to “the supreme Law of the Land” as “lawless,” and smearing those who advocate for the right of all people to keep and bear arms as haters.
For his part, Herring says “These laws, when they get passed, they’re going to be followed.”
We shall see.

Richmond, VA –-(Ammoland.com)- Democrats in the Commonwealth of Virginia are threatening communities that declare themselves Second Amendment sanctuaries.
On Wednesday, Virginia Governor Ralph Northam said that localities could face “consequences” if law enforcement officers don't enforce the new proposed gun laws.
“There's not going to be retaliation. That's not what I'm about. I'm about making Virginia safer,” Northam told reporters. “If we have constitutional laws on the books and law enforcement officers are not enforcing those laws on the books, then there are going to be consequences, but I'll cross that bridge if and when we get to it.”
Since the November election, Democrats have been proposing sweeping new gun control legislation. The Democrats, backed by Bloomberg money, took control of the Virginia legislature. Most of the state remains pro-gun.
Over 80 counties that have been feeling the threat of the proposed gun control bills have declared themselves Second Amendment sanctuaries. These counties have stated that they will not enforce laws that infringe on their citizen's right to bear arms.
The overwhelming Second Amendment Sanctuary movement has shocked and angered Democrats in the Virginia Commonwealth because of the supporters' belief in the sanctity of our Bill of Rights and the real nature and size of this organic grassroots movement by everyday citizens.
Congressman Gerry Connolly went even further than Gov. Northam. He pushed for prosecution of police officers that refuse to enforce the proposed unconstitutional laws.
“I would hope they either resign in good conscience, because they cannot uphold the law which they are sworn to uphold, or they're prosecuted for failure to fulfill their oath,” Connolly told the Washington Examiner. “The law is the law. If that becomes the law, you don't have a choice, not if you're a sworn officer of the law.”
Democratic Virginia Rep. Donald McEachin proposed cutting off state funds to counties that pass Second Amendment sanctuary ordinance. He wants to do what is tantamount to blackmail to force these localities to enforce gun laws that violate their citizen's rights.
“They certainly risk funding, because if the sheriff's department is not going to enforce the law, they're going to lose money. The counties' attorneys’ offices are not going to have the money to prosecute because their prosecutions are going to go down,” McEachin said.
McEachin said that the Governor could call in the National Guard to enforce the new gun laws. He would turn Virginia into a police state to satisfy the anti-gun lobby's thirst for gun-control.
“And ultimately, I'm not the governor, but the governor may have to nationalize the National Guard to enforce the law,” McEachin said. “That's his call, because I don't know how serious these counties are and how severe the violations of law will be. But that's obviously an option he has.”
Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring doubled down on enforcing the new gun-control measures. He played off counties passing Second Amendment sanctuary ordinances as a stunt by gun-rights groups. He implied that what these counties do is inconsequential and will have no bearing on the enforcement of new state gun laws.
“So, when Virginia passes these gun safety laws that they will be followed, they will be enforced,” Herring said.
Groups like Gun Owners of America think that these Democrats are hypocrites. They point to the Governor's support of immigration sanctuaries. GOA Executive Vice President Erich Pratt thinks Northam is acting more like a dictator than a governor.
“Gun-grabbing Democrats like Gov. ‘Blackface' Northam crow about how gun owners need to follow the law. But it is Northam and his minions who violate the ‘Rule of Law' every day,” Pratt told AmmoLand. “Consider Northam’s support for bogus laws that would imprison Virginians for simply possessing common firearms that are still legal to own and possess in all 50 states. He is running roughshod over the rights protected in the Constitution.”
“And he despises the fact that county supervisors and sheriffs would be so impertinent as to declare their counties as Second Amendment sanctuaries. Meanwhile, he has vetoed legislation to dismantle immigration sanctuaries, thus protecting people who have broken the law to enter the country.”
“Northam can’t have it both ways. He’s either for sanctuary counties or he’s against them.”
“Is the Governor going to follow Rep. Gerry Connolly’s suggestion to arrest local sheriffs who don’t want to assist Northam in stealing private firearms without compensation and in violation of the Fifth Amendment? Or is he going to pursue Rep. Donald McEachin’s proposal to activate the National Guard to assist his ‘legal' theft of firearms from local citizens?”
“Governor Northam’s declaration of war against gun owners is really an attack upon the God-given rights of law-abiding Virginians and upon the state and federal Constitution that he swore to uphold.”
“Gun Owners of America has been mobilizing its activists to urge their supervisors and sheriffs to resist the Governor’s dictatorial actions. And we do not relent until the despotic threat from Richmond has abated.”
A showdown is brewing in Virginia. It could shape not only the future of gun rights in the commonwealth but the future of gun rights nationwide. The citizens of Virginia are standing up to what they see as tyrannical moves by the Democrat controlled state government.
These citizens encourage law enforcement officials to uphold their oath to defend the constitution of the United States and of Virginia.

Please plan to be there by 6 p.m. – there is another local issue on the agenda that might draw crowd (related to school funding). There is plenty of parking all around the Administrative building. It is NOT a court or a school – legal carry is allowed.
VCDL EM Leyla Myers has a large roll of stickers and she will be there early.
The resolution will be voted as part of the Consensus Agenda – it is 7 p.m. when they vote – and there is not going to be a public hearing for this resolution. But during the work session, which starts at 6 p.m., there is a time for public hearing – you can just show up and sign up when you get there – give the sign up sheet to the clerk. If you don’t sign up, but wish to speak, you can wait until they ask if anyone else wishes to speak. If you show up at 7 p.m. – they will not be taking any comments.

28. Waynesboro City Council meeting on their resolution changed to January 13 and new location
I'm getting conflicting information on the Waynesboro meeting on their resolution. It was Monday, January 9. I'm told that it is now January 13, 2020 at the Kate Collins Middle School. At this point, I suggest everyone going to the meeting call and verify the location: (540) 942-6669.
Or, better, just go on Monday and urge the City Council to pass the resolution!
