2. What? How can anyone blame it on religion?

I mean, where's the evidence that religion had anything to do with it?

3. Umm...listen to her entire recitation: I think it's the "peaceable"

4. I said what I said because someone blamed this on religion.

Of course it is relevant that she emphasized "peaceable".

But that has nothing to do with religion. Those are two different parts of the same First Amendment.

6. We have no idea what his motives were... yet. But if you've seen his YouTube channel you'd see

he's fucking insane.
