On Saturday, the anti-Semitic and racist Rev. Louis Farrakhan tweeted a snippet of his speech from the Saviour’s Day speech he gave in mid-February, and the snippet showed his willingness to attack Jews and the history of Jesus Christ’s death in one fell swoop.
Speaking at the event, Farrakhan stated his version of the death of Jesus, starting by quoting the New Testament: “God so loved his people that he gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believed in Him would not perish but have everlasting life.”

And when they put their hands on him they started arguing because there was a price on his head $1,500 if you bring him in alive $2,500 if you bring him in dead. …
