Make him pay for the time wasted by police, store personnel, and force him to hear the stories of girls whose lives have been forever hurt by actions such as this selfish creep’s. Hurt him back— severely.


At least Christians can gain solace in knowing that Richard Dering Jr. Will NEVER attain our glorious heaven because of his ungodly act!


“Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality,idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions,  envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.” (Galatians 5:19-21)


I am always amazed that my godly Christian posts receive more thumbs down than up, because of the simple fact that the thumbs down are from non-christians and Atheists that can’t accept our bible truth. This crowd will pay upon Judgment Day!


That’s what all the action was about. What a creep.
