There's worse places for people like Iran. But for one of the States of the United States of America to fall this badly inexcusable.
The idea of States was clearly inspired by the Tribes of Israel that comprise Israel. I can't imagine the head of one of the tribes getting away with what Gavin is doing while David and/or Solomon was in charge. Even during the era of Judges, the Tribe of Benjamin nearly went the way of Sodom and Gomorrah because of what they did. . .or rather didn't do . . .and that was bring justice down onto the heads of a rape gang. Keep that mind, it was just one woman who got raped to death and the Tribe of Benjamin just let the gang go. It was enough to anger everyone including God. The other Tribes were permitted by God to rip the Tribe of Benjamin a new one. And what was God's personal backlash? Everyone but the virgins(male and females) got wiped out.
In the present how many rapists, pedophiles, murderers, etc. are let go on a daily basis and without the justification of something like Constitutional Rights being violated.. Very thankful we are in an Era of Grace because hoo-boy. . .
