Sidewalk Chalk Messages Force Stephen Miller to Flee Arlington, Put Home Up for Sale (dailyboulder.com)

Miller and his wife, podcaster Katie Miller, appear to have quietly fled the neighborhood in recent weeks. Neighbors say they were spotted moving out, and the house officially hit the market on October 7, according to ARLnow. The exit comes after several rounds of peaceful chalk protests on the sidewalk outside their home, with messages like “Stephen Miller is destroying democracy,” “stop the kidnapping,” and “no white nationalism” scrawled in bold letters.

While the chalk eventually washed away, the tension apparently didn’t. Katie Miller lashed out on social media: “To the ‘Tolerant Left’ who spent their day trying to intimidate us in the house where we have three young children: We will not back down. We will not cower in fear. We will double down. Always, For Charlie.”

So, they're going to "double down" on the kidnappings, destroying democracy, and white nationalism...for Charlie?

Charlie, the "Christian" and "Martyr" who advocated against feeding the poor, healing the sick and welcoming the immigrant? That Charlie?

Yes, I think it's completely on brand for them to do exactly that. Anyone who can read quotes of Jesus from the Bible and twist them into this kind of agenda has long since abandoned evidence, objectivity, empiricism and rationalism.

They're just shouting nonsense in Elizabethan English at this point because it sounds Bibley to them. I'm not joking. I have heard people say things that way that are definitely not in the Bible. Not that the Bible should be dictating law.

I'm just pointing out that they're not applying a coherent, good-faith doctrine. They're just doing what they want and trying to stretch the flag and the Bible to cover their wrongdoing.

Matthew 25:35-40

English Standard Version

35 For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36 I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ 37 Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? 38 And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? 39 And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ 40 And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers,[a] you did it to me.’

They are fully anti-Christian, and so are the people who follow them. Again, this isn't about Christianity or even religion. I'm pointing out that we have passed the point of hypernormalization, and people are violating their own dogmas to deal with the cognitive dissonance.

Ezekiel 16:49 This was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had pride, excess of food, and prosperous ease but did not aid the poor and needy.

Ooooo. Old Testament burn. Those are especially good for when hypocrites go after marginalized demographics that are more explicitly protected in the New Testament.
