Fixed meme | Unless, of course, you happen to be ordained as God's personal representative to drive out people who are personally responsible for cheating the poor, inside God's own house, for their own gain. Then you can destroy those specific people's property. | image tagged in jesus jerusalem temple riots | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

Over turning tables does not equate breaking.Also Jesus is God's(Father's) Son, not merely a 'Representative'. Also, also, the money changers were 'trespassing'. It was never about 'cheating the poor', it was about 'doing worldly business with the bounds of God's House.'

Yeah, but I was trying to simplify things a bit. (As you can see, the text block is already a bit ludicrous as it is) He did turn loose a lot of the livestock (John 2:15), which does basically equate to destruction of property imo. Also, he did say "den of thieves" and I think there's historical records that show temple merchants did charge very high surcharges. (Don't quote me on that, though)
Basically, the original meme just had " 'Destruction of property is not a valid form of protest' " and then "Jesus:" and the picture, so I added a bit of context to the meme to debunk the ludicrous justification of the violent BLM riots.
