My husband is a Marine btw.

@914Ann Same with the Jolly Roger. That flag signals bad intentions for all. Also, legitimate states understand there’s only one cure for those who fly the Jolly Roger.

@MoscowIdahoUSA Yes!

@914Ann The term can also be used more broadly to convey a steadfast or unyielding stance in various situations. This is good.

@ChristVictorous It's a war crime for a reason and when a Pastor uses the term he knows full well the broad meaning. Take no Prisoners is what he means. That literally means allow no one to surrender.

@914Ann And? Go listen to Slayer if this offends you.

@bruteforms I'm more of a Megadeth girl.

@914Ann What does it mean? I assume it has something to do with being drawn and quartered?

@laurel_prolife No. No Quarter is when you allow the enemy no rest. No retreat. It means "take no prisoners". It is considered a war crime because it literally means to kill everyone, including those that surrender or are innocent non combatives such as women and children.

@914Ann Somebody get me some pearls to clutch!

@PhilosophyBeard You can borrow mine anytime. I have several necklaces. Several.

@914Ann War Crime? Nah...'No Quarter' is a BATTLE CRY. What happens after may be a war crime or war crimes.

@Warwick7th It is in fact a war crime

@914Ann As if our enemies are trying to surrender and we're not allowing them to.. haha okay. Most Christians not only grant quarter, but fight against their own side (hint hint).

@MikeBowden3655 I'm not fighting against my own side.

@914Ann @canonpress If Canon Press were fighting a real war in which people were dying, you could be justifiably outraged. But cannon press is fighting a war against ideas. One such idea, abortion, has killed millions, and I would agree, philosophies that promotes abortion deserves no quarter.

@greenfox212 @canonpress So the thing with abortion is that real people are involved. To call no quarter on abortion itself makes no sense without people that are involved.

@914Ann Have you read any of Doug Wilson's other blog posts outside of No Quarter November posts? Context matters..

@914Ann From the horses mouth.. It might be shocking... 😃

@914Ann @canonpress It literally means “no mercy” or “no holding back” lol
