Why do Far Right "Christians" Love War and Guns

I say, if you hate my country so much, please get out of it.
I haven't read the responses but here's mine:
Abortion - One fully innocent life being snuffed out for convenience
War - Many guilty lives and sometimes innocent life taken for the good of many. The fact that God Himself ordained war tells me that there is something good in it. If someone came in to threaten or hurt my family, you're darned tootin' that I'd get them first. Same with if I saw someone going to kill someone else. I'd stop it however I possibly could. The genocide that is going on in countries is so despicable that for any human being to stand by and let it happen is unconscionable. Completely.
Guns - Can be good and can be bad. We do not own guns and I'm all for good restrictions put into place to protect the gun user and those around them. But it is our inherent right to protect ourselves, our family and our property. I don't have a gun but I'd just the same beat someone to death who was going to hurt my children with the baseball bat I have under my bed.
There is no excuse, whatsoever, to kill a child.
There IS an excuse to kill to protect lives.

You come to my house to do harm to me, my family, or property....I will defend all by all the means I have. In fact, I think it is un-christian and a failure of Christian duty to one's family NOT to protect them, with deadly force if needed. And that would include having (and being trained) in the means to do so.
LOL - Have you READ the Old Testament recently??

No..really if you want to leave I am sure a one way ticket can be rounded up for you.

I hate to ask, what does the O.T. have to do with Christians murdering others?
1 Peter 2:17-19
17Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
18Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.
19For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.
Now on what grounds did the satanic founding fathers have to murder the British?
On what grounds did David invade Moab ?

The O.T. was an allegory; we also are not to stone people, that may be a surprise to many people here.
Maybe you should study American history for yourself rather than rely on your indoctrination.
Um, are you saying the O/T didn't happen ? The O/T being an allegory would definitely be a surprise, if that were the case.
Even atheist historians know David did invade Moab, and can name the countries he traversed to do it. Can you ? And can you give a Christian reason for his bloody rampage thru the country ?
Seems like you may be the reincarnation of a guy that called himself "Prophecynut", that they banned a few years ago. Anyhoo, I've seen enough to know you are just going to throw stones around here, and are not interested in honest debate. Kind of like yer buddy Just Christian. I'm glad the two of you have found each other.

It all happened, but it was still an allegory.
Galatians 4:23-25
23But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise.
24Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.
25For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.

So you just won't answer the question ? Good enough.
Just curious... if you were provided with transportation, moving costs, housing accomodations and the employment of your choice... what country would be the haven of your desire?
Because I prefer to post on a shorter thread without reading the thread first - then I go back and read it.
I'm sorry if I offended your senses but I have bits and pieces of time as I work on our church website and educate my children so I don't have time to always read every response.
