“You have heard that it was said, ‘Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.’ And then there are some that will say, ‘Do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.’ “
But I tell you that you might not want to take an eye for an eye, but turning the other cheek is just not practical. You must stand up for yourself. Especially if the one that is asking you to go one mile is the government. In that case, it’s probably a conspiracy to take away your freedom. Above all, protect your freedom and your rights. That’s what makes America great. Forget about turning the other cheek. That’s bullshit.
