New First Coast Catholic bishop known to champion social justice issues | jacksonville.com

Editor: Social Justice = Wealth Redistribution. He's frequently harassed legislators on behalf of creeping socialism. And of course, he's a brown skinned Spanish speaker, and the paper is proud to cite other Latinos saying, "it's great to have one of our own in there". If the tables were turned, you'd probably be reading about it in Stormfront.

Evangelization for Estevez will also mean continuing to champion the church's social justice issues in Tallahassee, a role he excelled at as auxiliary bishop of Miami, said Mike McCarron, executive director of the Florida Catholic Conference.
The bishop has routinely met with legislators, written policy papers and delivered speeches opposing the death penalty and abortion, McCarron said. He has also advocated for the rights of the disabled and immigrants.
"I will be doing even more of that than before," Estevez said. "My agenda will include seeking the good for all, especially those who are most vulnerable."
That's where Estevez's ethnicity inspires his ministry.
