Dickinson, Texas requires those seeking Hurricane relief to be Pro-Israel

Great news!

Assuming that you're serious, how can you possibly justify people being denied aid after a natural disaster for the mere crime of their views on foreign policy?

There are enough decent people in need of aid. Let's help them first. I do not have compassion with those who want my fellow Jews in Israel to die.

If you are imposing a political test in exchange for aid, you are horrible on human rights. Most of the people seeking aid probably don't even have much of an opinion on Israel.

which means they won't be targeted...

But why should anyone be targeted at all? Aid should be given without political questions.

I think everybody should be eligible for aid, but BDS supporters should be at the back of the line: decent people first. Why should I care about people who effectively demand the destruction of the Jewish people?

It's not about what YOU think, it's about what is fair and government aid cannot have a litmus test for political reasons. If you don't want to donate to certain people, that is your right, but you can't demand a government litmus test for aid. That is unconstitutional, not to mention unethical.

This thread kinda is about what we think? Or are you going to police others for giving their opinion too?

Didn't know my opinions had to be in line with the U.S. constitution...

No need to get hysterical. The basis of any law has to line up with the constitution and the thread is about the ordinance passed.
