Theodore Shoebat Wants 'An American Inquisition,' Hails The Trail Of Tears

Anti-LGBT activist Theodore Shoebat posted a new video yesterday praising Donald Trump's plan to ban all Muslims from entering the country, approvingly comparing him to Andrew Jackson, whom he hailed as "the greatest president in American history" for oppressing, dislocating and killing thousands of Native Americans because "the heathen needed to be punished."

Trump's plan to ban all Muslims is the epitome of "American values," Shoebat explained, just as was Jackson's treatment of the Native Americans.

"Any Indian that expressed any sort of anti-American sentiment, he killed them," Shoebat rejoiced. "He had no tolerance for evil and wicked people. He got rid of them and he purged the society of these pagan heathens and he did an American Inquisition and that's what we need now ... Homosexuality? Death penalty. Blasphemy? Should be punished. Pagans coming in to your land? Kill the pagans, defeat them, convert the to Christianity."

"I'm more American than you," Shoebat declared. "Back in the day, just 100 years ago or so, 200 years ago, the American people 100 percent would have agreed with me. The Founding Fathers would have agreed with me."
