Washington lawmaker Matt Shea distributed a document telling Christians to “kill all males” if gay people and abortion advocates don't yield to fundamentalist religious law after the government collapses. Now, Shea may be losing his grip in his district.
More recently, this Inland Northwest region has become known among survivalists as the American Redoubt, where patriots and “preppers” — those who stockpile food and ammunition for the end days — can migrate to establish a homeland. The syndrome is outlined in a public radio podcast called “,” which describes Shea’s activities and traces his ties to Marble Community Fellowship, a religious community north of Spokane.
“We’ve managed to get the word out about Matt Shea’s extreme agenda,” she said, “so you see a shift to more reasonable, less divisive elected officials.” Higgins said he was surprised the officers didn’t shoot King, because “it would have been justified,” given that he was “higher than a kite.” The two defectors, Jay Pounder and Tanner Rowe, leaked a four-page manifesto last year titled “Biblical Basis for War,” in which Shea described God as a “warrior,” outlined strategies of a “Holy Army,” and advocated killing all males who did not accept biblical law and bans on abortion and same-sex marriage. The tract created an uproar, but Shea said it merely summarized a scholarly sermon on Old Testament warfare — an interpretation disputed by theologians who reviewed it.
