He was probably thinking of the bit where Jesus fashions an improvised weapon and attacks a heavily guarded economic centre because he didn't agree with their politics.

Or the bit where he said he's going to beat the fuck out of anyone that doesn't follow him in exactly the right way, and keep torturing them while they beg to be allowed to die because the plagues and fire hurt too much.

He was using the same book that people have been interpreting to mean violence is a moral imperative for almost two thousand years, I know it's fun to say he doesn't follow Jesus but biblical Jesus was nuts if you go by the whole book and Christianity is a bloody and oppressive religion
