It’s almost too shocking — even for politics.
According to the Associated Press, two years ago Augustus Sol Invictus walked from central Florida to the Mojave Desert. He spent a week fasting and praying, at times thinking he wouldn’t survive.
In a pagan ritual to give thanks when he returned home, he killed a goat and drank its blood.
Now he wants your vote as a candidate for U.S. Senate from Florida.
Adrian Wyllie, who was the Libertarian candidate for governor last year, broke the story that Invictus had brutally and sadistically dismembered a goat.
It’s an awkward situation for the small party that’s trying to gain clout.
“He is the absolute exact opposite of a Libertarian,” Wyllie said. “It’s absolute insanity. We must explain to people this is the opposite of Libertarians. This guy has no place in the Libertarian Party.”
Invictus, a 32-year-old lawyer who changed his given name — which he declines to reveal — to a Latin phrase that means “majestic unconquered sun,” says Wyllie is just running a smear campaign and is twisting his words into lies.
“I did sacrifice a goat. I know that’s probably a quibble in the mind of most Americans,” he said. “I sacrificed an animal to the god of the wilderness … Yes, I drank the goat’s blood.”
He also admits he’s been investigated by the FBI, the U.S. Marshals and other law enforcement. He is confident they’re still watching him, in part for a series of YouTube videos and other writings in which he discusses government.

best solution for him? a baseball bat to the back of the head. He isn’t mentally ill, he’s just plain evil and as such needs to be dealt with swiftly. He’s as bad as a muslim! He will NOT uphold the constitution, he like a muslim does not honor it at all!

Bud Webster says
What have we become when 10 commandments are being taken out of the public square, Bernie sanders is a sitting socialist senator, and you have a satanist running for office, and a militant progessive Marxist as president. We are in deep, deep trouble unless changes are made right now
Judy says
Bud, you are so right. How far we have fallen…down…down. If we don’t get morally strong people in charge of this country, we are doomed. And if anyone doesn’t know where our time-honored morals come from, read the Bible.
Daughter says
AMERICA IS ALREADY DOOMED, THERE IS NO SAVING HER FROM GOD’S JUDGEMENT, EVERYONE SHOULD PREPARE THEIR SOULS AND PRAY FOR MERCY FOR OUR SILENCE IN THE FACE OF EVIL!

Daughter:
Who made you Prophet? America has always tried to do right above all else! There is no one that can say different and be telling the truth! We have done more good for this world than any other country.
God has seen all that has and is occurring in our world! He will send you and those who terrorize in his name will suffer!
J.P. Travis says
When he said he sacrificed a goat, he was just kidding.
Victoria says
Really? read it again.
Mike says
It is very sad that animals such as the above are allowed to run for public service and also the removal of the ten commandments. How far down the degrading scale has our world fallen. It is our fault for not opposing degradation of our society, for not speaking out, for not taking responsibility, looking the other way, excusing it, being lazy, but more than anything buying into the rhetoric of those who want to change our society! A society where wrong is good and good is bad. Where criminals win and law abiding citizens lose!! If the huge moral backbone of the country does not begin to immediately demand a reversal our politicians will continue to destroy us. Their lust for power breeds all this negativity that has currently taken hold and we are at the
point of no return Look around you, in your cities, in your country and in the world, chaos is the norm!
