America - The True State of the Union!

"In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes."

Judges 21:25

"Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame them! And the harp, and the viol, the tabret, and pipe, and wine, are in their feasts: but they regard not the work of the Lord, neither consider the operation of his hands. Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst. Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it."

Isaiah 5:11-14

"And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power: when he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day."

II Thessalonians 1:7-10

In this issue of the Last Trumpet Newsletter, we will once again use the Scripture to bring forth the reality of conditions as Almighty God sees them. We know that Barack Hussein Obama is planning to give his required State of the Union address soon. By the time you receive this newsletter, it may have already been given. Obama will have a lot to say about what he is doing, but I am a firm believer that there is a remnant of people living in this country that want to know the truth. What is the present truth and current reality regarding the condition of the United States of America? That truth and reality is only hidden from those who refuse to see it! The purpose of this issue of the Last Trumpet is to present the facts regarding what is now happening to us. These facts speak much louder than the words of Barack Obama. The Word of God also makes the present truth exceedingly clear. We are a nation and world that has already entered great tribulation, and that tribulation is intensifying every day. It will continue until all Scripture is fulfilled.

It is a sad fact that most people don't comprehend or believe what they are seeing because they are always looking for something else. Reality never strikes them until the situation is beyond remedy. We are now at the point where the satanic antichrist conspiracy to reduce America to a state of interdependence has nearly achieved that objective. Dark spiritual clouds are on the horizon, and it is time for all of us to cast aside every distraction so we can watch and pray. The Almighty is coming to bring all things into judgment. We must all stand before Him. If you are reading this, there is still time for you to repent and seek the Lord Jesus Christ. He will receive you and all will be well for you both now and in eternity.

America - How Art Thou Fallen?

With the passing of the year 2009 and the entry to the year 2010, it seems some kind of portal was opened. Was that passage an end of an era and a beginning of a new one? Numerous powerful and influential people died in the year 2009, far too many to mention in this newsletter. Is this a sign that the new age, the new world order or Age of Aquarius, has now begun? In the year 2009, death came to former Senator Claiborne Pell of Rhode Island. Pell was an Illuminist who continually consulted with astrologers and had a paid psychic on his staff. He was the driving force behind the college Pell grants. The titular head of the Illuminati, Edmund de Rothschild, also died in 2009 at age 93. Another Illuminati hierarch died at age 93. He was Dr. Robert Strange McNamara, sometimes known as "Dr. Strangebob," and the Pentagon chief that orchestrated the war in Vietnam. Senator Edward M. Kennedy, the illuministic leader of liberalism; and Walter Cronkite, American propaganda icon, both died in 2009. (1)

Many are the signs that we have passed into a new era, but most people are paying little attention to them. On December 20th, 2009, the London Daily Telegraph published a shocking story with an even more startling headline, which said, "There'll be nowhere to run from the new world government." The story tells of the emerging European unity into one nation, which will draw all nations into a global alliance. (2)

In America, the "big brother" Federal Government is gearing up for the 2010 census, which has been taken from the Commerce Department and placed solely in the hands of Rahm Emmanuel in the White House. The White House powers have stated that they believe 45 percent of the people of the United States will not return their census forms. This has prompted our government to spend $340 million on advertising alone in order to prompt people to turn in their census forms. This advertising program includes thirteen large vehicles with banners that will drive across the United States promoting the census. It also includes two ads, at a cost of 2.5 million dollars to be aired during the Super Bowl. (3) Nothing like this concerning the census has ever been done before. This census is more than just head counting; it is about building a data base of personal information.

America is changing rapidly. On December 31st, 2009, the Seattle Times featured a story about Obama's plans for a major overhaul of our nation's immigration policies. Here let it be noted that there are at least twelve million undocumented illegal aliens living in America, and Obama plans to grant all of them "instant citizenship." (4) Apparently, laws mean nothing to a lawless leader.

The Scripture tells us that the spirit of antichrist and its human stooges will bring destruction in the name of peace. In Daniel 8:25 we read of this as follows: "And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand." We must remember that Barack Obama was recently awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, having done nothing to even remotely deserve it. Even more outrageous and shocking was the "war speech" he gave when receiving the peace prize. Obama boasted that the United States is "the world's sole military superpower." Obama also boasted that he was the first head of state to receive the peace prize while presiding over two wars. America contains only 4 percent of the world's population but it accounts for 41 percent of all military spending in the 192 nations of the entire world. In addition to the 1,445,000 active duty service members, there are also 1.2 million National Guard and reserve forces. The U.S. Defense Department also has 800,000 civilian employees. (5) How strange it is that Obama's peace prize speech has been described as "an impassioned rationale for war." (6)

One thing is certain: oppressive forces are rising up. It is also interesting to note that in order to indoctrinate children and young people the U.S. Army has spent $32.8 million developing an online video game as a recruitment tool. Strangely enough, those who play the game are deceived through a software gimmick, which causes American soldiers to fight and kill other American soldiers. (7)

We are living in a volatile time when almost anything can happen. According to the European Union Times, Russian military analysts have been reporting to Prime Minister Putin that U.S. President Barack Obama has ordered U.S. Air Force General Gene Renuart, leader of the Northern Command or USNORTHCOM, to "begin immediately" to increase his military forces to one million troops by January 30th, 2010. This is being done in anticipation of civil war within the United States of America. Intelligence reports are revealing that massive numbers of Americans are growing more and more restive and are fed up! (8)

We also know that incidents are being provided as an excuse to tighten security everywhere. The attempted bombing of the plane that landed in Detroit in December 2009 was one such manufactured incident. The director of Homeland Security, Janet Napolitano, issued a report that she is going to "fix the problem and tighten security." (9) It is interesting that the mainstream news media is now referring to Janet Napolitano as "Big Sister." Now the push is on for widespread use of the backscatter full-body x-ray devices. (10) If we are trying to tighten security, why did Napolitano appoint what she called "two devout Muslims" to high positions in the Department of Homeland Security? The new Assistant Secretary for Policy Development is Arif Alikhan, and the new National Executive Director of the ADC, or American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, under Homeland Security is Kareem Shora. (11) Janet Napolitano touted these two men as "devout Muslims." Isn't it strange that she couldn't find two devout Christians?

As previously mentioned, Barack Obama is soon to give his State of the Union Address. At the time of this writing, no certain date has been selected. Traditionally, this address is given on the 20th day of January, which is a day honored by the occult world as the day when the sun enters the eleventh sign of the Zodiac, the sign of Aquarius. Barack Obama, however, wanted to give that speech on February 2nd, 2010, which just happens to be the witches' high cross-quarter sabat of Imbolc. The word Imbolc is a Gaelic word meaning "in the belly," and witches celebrate it as the first stirrings of the new spring in the womb of "Mother Earth." When Obama selected this date, there was a great outcry because his speech would pre-empt the season premiere episode of a television program entitled "Lost." It is interesting that Obama's speech was going to override a program called LOST, a true picture of the state of the union. Obama decided he would choose another time for his address. (12)

While searching to find the date of the State of the Union address, I came across something I was not looking for. It was an official announcement from a government agency that I did not know existed. The Office of Force Readiness and Deployment on their official website is calling for medical workers specializing in cardiac problems. The heading says: "2010 State of the Union Address." The complete announcement reads as follows: "Dear Commissioned Corps Officers of Tier III Roster D: The U.S. Capitol Police and the Office of the attending Physician, through the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR), Office of Preparedness and Emergency Response, has asked the Office of Force Readiness and Deployment (OFRD) to roster five medical strike teams of physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and registered nurses to provide care for Basic Life Support and Advanced Cardiac Life support incidents during the 2010 State of the Union Address in Washington, D.C. Capitol Area Provider Team #4 will be working this event but we will need to augment their team with additional clinical assets from Tier III Roster D. A date for the 2010 State of the Union Address has not been set yet, but the proposed dates are 19, 25 and 26 January 2010." The announcement goes on to say that all of these heart specialists will be "in field uniform-Woodland Pattern, USPHS Ball Cap & T Shirt." (13)

When I read this announcement, I immediately began to wonder what Obama will say that would cause so many potential heart attacks. I also thought of Luke 21:26, which reads as follows: "Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken."

What is next on the agenda of the Illuminati conspirators? The Copenhagen Climate Summit was a complete flop and fiasco as the majority of nations walked out in protest! (14) Even though church bells rang worldwide in support of the Copenhagen meetings, there were not nearly as many bells ringing as hoped. (15)

We know that if the elitest conspirators are going to control people worldwide, it must be through electronics. On November 11th, 2009, Jim Edwards, formerly a Knight-Bagehot fellow at the Columbia University's business and journalism schools, released a shocking report. The implantable microchip company, known as VeriChip, has acquired Steel Vault, (SVUL), a credit monitoring and anti-identity theft company. The new company will operate under a new name: PositiveID. PositiveID CEO Scott Silverman said, "PositiveID will be the first company of its kind to combine a successful identity security business with one of the world's first personal health records through our Health Link business. PositiveID will address some of the most important issues affecting our society today with our identification tools and technologies for consumers and businesses." In short, all of this means that when people are implanted with microchips, their health records, credit scores, and other personal information will be all linked together in one massive data base. (16) The mark of the Beast is just ahead!

An Economy in Tribulation!

The heartaches of our dying economy is no secret; all of us are feeling the devastating effects of it with the exception of the elitists who control it. On December 21st, 2009, the Associated Press featured a story entitled "Economy's Tribulations Voted Top Story." (17) When the mainstream press begins to use words like tribulation regarding the economy, we know we are now in the days of the final fulfillment of Bible prophecy. On January 10th, 2010, the London Daily Telegraph published a story with the following headline: "America Slides Deeper into Depression as Wall Street Revels." The story went on to say that the U6 category of unemployment in America rose to 17.3 percent. This is because the American labor force decreased by 661,000 because so many Americans dropped out of the system. (18) Here let it be noted that all of the foreign news media are using the word depression when describing the American economy. Here in America, they still call it a recession as they whistle in the graveyard.

In the state of California, small business bankruptcies have risen by 81 percent because people just do not have money or purchasing ability. (19) In the state of Connecticut, there were so many unemployment claims filed in December 2009 that the main server was completely overwhelmed with a flood of jobless people seeking help. (20) While all of this is going on, the United States is spending countless billions of dollars on foreign wars. The amount that the Pentagon spends for war now exceeds that of all state governments combined. (21)

What happened to the vast wealth of the erstwhile great nation of the United States of America? Where did it go and who has it? The sad fact is that the Red Chinese have risen to a state of vast power, and they are expanding and increasing continually. We have now learned that PetroChina has won approval to acquire vast oil fields in Alberta, Canada, for 1.8 billion dollars. (22) We have also learned that the top five most powerful banks in the world do not include any U.S. banks. Four of these super banks are in Red China, and one is in Brazil. (23) Red China also replaced the United States as the world's number one automobile market as sales in that country jumped by 46 percent. This ended more than a century of American dominance dating back to the time of the Model T Ford. (24) Red China is now also the largest exporter in the world with exports of goods worth 1.2 trillion dollars for 2009. (25) Sadly, the United States has become totally dependant on Red Chinese products.

The U.S. dollar is marked for death. On December 29th, 2009, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel published an article accompanied by a large image of a one hundred dollar bill. Instead of the usual image of Benjamin Franklin, there was an image of a large owl on the bill. (26) The inference was to use wisdom when spending money. There is, however, an occult side to this. The U.S. one dollar bill has always had an image of an owl on it. A tiny owl appears on the obverse side of the dollar in the upper right corner of the note. It is located just to the upper left of the numeral "1." The owl has always been the symbol of moon worship as people in ancient times would gather under the groves of oak trees, and owls would join them. Witches still do this in our time. We also know that the highest Illuminists gather at a place called the Bohemian Grove and stand in front of a large image of an owl while dressed in long robes. The owl is known in the occult as "Lucifer's messenger." The word Wicca means "wise ones," and Wiccans use the owl as a symbol of their craft. We also know that in the Harry Potter books and movies, the owl was the messenger. To this day, a gathering of owls is called a parliament. I have watched for years, and I know that the power of witchcraft and occultism rises with the powers of Antichrist to prepare the people to accept the son of perdition as the false son of God. The rising use of the owl image is a sign of this!

Oppressive Health Care

The Senate version of the health care bill was passed by a vote of 60-39. I predicted this on a worldwide radio program. I stated that it would come to a vote during the time of the witches' sabat of Yule between December 21st and December 24th, 2009. On the morning of December 24th, the day before "Christmas," the Senators gathered in their chamber, suitcases in hand, anxious to head to the airport to go home for the holiday. The vote on this massive bill was rushed and railroaded through quickly. As the votes were being called for, Senator Harry Reid, the primary proponent and driving force behind the bill, stood to his feet and voted "nay!" When the chamber was filled with laughter, he quickly changed his vote to "aye." (27) In truth, the bill did not pass, but Senator Reid was allowed to change his vote. The Senator said he was tired and didn't realize what he was doing, but it tells me that God is in charge and this thing is not over yet!

The corruption surrounding this foul health care bill rivals anything found in the Chicago underworld. That should not surprise us as the Chicago underworld is largely the spiritual habitat of Barack Obama. The health care bill was headed for failure at one point in time because Senator Ben Nelson of Nebraska wanted restrictions on abortion in the bill. (28) Suddenly, Senator Nelson changed his mind after being given various "benefits" and countless millions of dollars for the state of Nebraska. (29) Ben Nelson received his "thirty pieces of silver," and betrayed his home state and his country. The element of secrecy prevailed as underhanded deception surrounded the passage of this health care bill. On December 23rd, 2009, the Wall Street Journal predicted that in the final reconciliation of the House and Senate versions of the bill, there would be a complete lack of transparency. (30) It would be done behind closed doors in direct violation to normal procedure and in direct conflict with Obama's many promises of transparency and no secrets. But what are promises to such a charlatan? This prediction is coming to pass. An ABC News report on January 13th, 2009, revealed that Barack Obama was calling together thirteen Democratic leaders on the 13th of January to meet at the White House regarding the health care bill. This panel of thirteen are to do the job of finalizing the bill for Obama's signature. (31) This thing has witchcraft and occultism written all over it. To add insult to injury, Obama has also given the OK to tax other health insurances that are not government run! (32) Obama has also given the job of insurance enforcement to the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS. The legislation would require most Americans to have health insurance and to prove it on their federal tax returns. Those who don't will pay a penalty to the IRS. (33) Is this still America?

Spirits of Perversion and Blasphemy!

The year of 2009 came to an end, and the New Year of 2010 began under a blue moon. A blue moon is a second full moon within one calendar month. It is incredibly rare, however, for it to occur on a New Year's Eve. In the realm of witchcraft, it is believed that this blue moon would triple the occult power of spells cast under it. It would also intensify horoscope readings and the power of the zodiac for the entire year, according to witchcraft doctrine. Already, it seems like all hell is breaking loose. At the end of December, a Danish newspaper declared the following: "Obama is, of course, greater than Jesus… He comes from humble beginnings and defends the weak and vulnerable, because he can identify himself with their conditions….And no we are not thinking of Jesus Christ, whose birthday has just been celebrated - but rather the President of the United States Barack Hussein Obama." The editorial also noted the following: "The idea was naturally that the comparison between Jesus and Obama would be made. If such a comparison were to be made, it would, of course, inevitably be to Obama's advantage." This article appeared in the Danish newspaper Politiken. (34) We are indeed living in that strange time of the end when spirits of blasphemy have risen up to insult the Most High God. He will not put up with it much longer! Soon He will come with swift judgment against the ungodly.

The spirits of Sodom are rising up with the spirits of blasphemy to curse our country. God does not change, and He is not going to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah. The same wrath will fall upon the spiritually blind people of our nation, who are burning with lust as they weary themselves to find the door. On December 31st, Barack Obama appointed a woman to be Senior Technical Advisor to the Department of Commerce. The problem is that this "woman" was a man who now calls himself Amanda Simpson. This was the first transgender person appointed to a high-level office in America. With it came the statement that there is hope that hundreds more transgender people will be hired! (35)

In Texas, an openly homosexual was elected as mayor of Houston. The new mayor, Annise Parker, is a flaming lesbian, and she was preferred by the people as she won the election by 11,000 votes. (36) Houston is an exceedingly wicked city in many ways, and soon it will be the home of a new six-story facility known as an abortion super center. The organization Planned Parenthood is renovating a former bank, shaped like a giant cash register, into a 78,000 square foot slaughter house of human sacrifice. There will also be a special surgical wing designated as specializing in late-term abortion. (37) We know there was a great slaughter of babies at the time of our Saviour's first coming when Herod ordered it done. Now there is a great slaughter of the innocents again, and it is a sure sign of our Saviour's second coming.

It stands without question that we live in a warped and perverted society. According to NBC Bay Area News, the California legislature is moving forward to legalize marijuana (pot), for all uses, not just medical. (38) The new movie "Avatar" has also taken our country into a hellish state of mind. It was recently reported on CNN that this blockbuster hit movie has been altering the state of consciousness in many people. Fans have stated that they have been suffering from depression and suicidal thoughts after watching the movie, because they long to enjoy the beauty of the alien world Pandora. (39) I have no doubt that every major event and project happening at this time is designed to brainwash and condition, as well as re-educate the masses of people to accept an antichrist one-world, new age of Aquarius dictator.

The Creation in Distress!

The Almighty does speak through His creation, and it is He, not "Mother Nature," that is in charge. Conspiratorial men tried to convince us that global warming would soon destroy us. God responded by sending extreme cold, snow, ice, and a wintry blast of weather that shook the entire globe. On January 5th, 2010, the London Times featured the following headline: "Arctic Freeze and Snow Wreak Havoc Across the Planet." The report stated that all around the world, record cold and snow were causing worldwide trouble in China, over Russia to Western Europe, and across the U.S. plains. (40) Even in Nice, southeastern France, there was snow on the beaches of the French Riviera. (41) In America, single storms that covered the entire North American continent from north to south brought a thick and deep shroud of severest winter upon the land. (42)

Other disasters began to strike around the world. In the Philippines, the Mount Mayon volcano has been threatening the many thousands of people that live near the 8,070 foot mountain and forcing evacuation. Lava fountains have been reaching heights of 1,500 feet, and 20 columns of ash over 1 ½ mile high have been observed. The volcano is also shooting 6,000 tons of sulfur dioxide into the air daily. Scientists are waiting for a massive explosion that could happen at any time. (43)

In San Francisco, California, something very peculiar happened on December 30th, 2009. In the wharf area at Pier 39, almost all the 1,500 sea lions disappeared. I personally remember seeing them when I visited that city. They had been there for countless years and suddenly left. (44) I remember reading that before the San Francisco earthquake of 1906, which devastated the city, all of the animals left shortly before it happened. I read about the sea lions on January 9th, and immediately heard a voice inside me saying, "There is going to be an earthquake." Only minutes later it happened. A powerful 6.5 magnitude quake struck off the coast of California, causing a lot of minor damage and cutting power to thousands of people, particularly to those in northern California. The effects were felt as far south as central California and as far north as central Oregon. (45) And surely, there is a much larger one coming! Then on January 12th, 2010, a massive and devastating quake hit the little nation of Haiti. The National Palace, UN Headquarters, hospitals, and thousands of other buildings collapsed, and countless thousands of people are known to be crushed in the rubble. The quake was a magnitude 7.0 and struck within miles of the capital city, Port-Au-Prince. (46) Haiti is a land filled with black magic in the form of voodoo and Santeria, including blood sacrifices, which are very common. God is speaking from heaven and soon His voice will become even louder.

In conclusion, I urge everyone to pray every day and yield your life completely to the Lord Jesus Christ. I also want to thank all of you who support this end time prophetic ministry. I pray you are blessed now and in eternity. Please remember that your prayer requests are always welcomed here, and our teams of intercessors will give each one personal attention. Grace and peace be unto you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Soon we will rejoice at His appearing.

Americans are idiots.

This is what the National Debt looks like in 100 Federal Fiat notes. See the image of the man to the left? If this was in 1 dollar Federal Fiat Notes laid end to end, it would go around the earth and moon 400 times.

You are expected to pay this back to the Federal Reserve Banks from which your "government" has borrowed this from. (The Federal Reserve Banks of course print this stuff up out of thin air and loans it to the government ... poof ... instant money!)

By the way, this does not include the money that will be borrowed to cover unfunded mandates.

Americans, you are idiots! You do and will deserve everything you get in the future.

Go ahead and click on the image.

News. You are a slave and pavlov's dogs.

Their Privilege to Kill, Our Duty to Die

Posted by William Grigg on January 24, 2010 11:13 PM

Last July 20, two men engaged in a brief altercation in Kasota, Minnesota. One of them was unarmed and wearing nothing but swim trunks. The other, dressed in regular clothes, was carrying a gun, which he used to pump several rounds into the first man’s chest at point-blank range.

This killing of an unarmed man was witnessed by more than a dozen people, all of whom — except, apparently, one — described it as undisguised murder. Yet a grand jury has refused to indict the killer, who — as should be obvious to any reasonably observant person — was a police officer.

The victim, 24-year-old stay-at-home father Tyler Heilman, had just ended a brief swim in a nearby lake and was clad only in swim trunks when he was stopped by Deputy Todd Waldron of the LeSeur County Sheriff’s Office for an alleged traffic violation.

The encounter in the parking lot of an apartment complex quickly became testy and degenerated into a physical altercation, one that some witnesses say Waldron — who was “working undercover” — was losing.

Kris Hoehn, a childhood friend of Heilman who witnessed the incident, recalls that his friend confronted the unidentified man who had been tailgating him in a Dodge Durango. To Hoehn it seemed apparent that his friend was unsure of the identity of the individual in street clothes who presumptuously demanded identification, and he understandably fought back when that unidentified stalker grabbed him by the shoulders.

Waldron was reportedly investigating an “unrelated matter” when he turned his lethal attention to Heilman. The young father might have suspected that he was being followed by a common criminal. If that had been the case, he most likely would still be alive.

According to witnesses, after his “good enough for government `work’” unarmed combat skills proved inadequate to subdue Heilman, Waldron pulled his gun and shot Heilman at least three, and perhaps four, times in the chest. He didn’t identify himself as a police officer or issue a warning of any kind.

At the time, Heilman was backing away with his hands raised as if in surrender.

One of the rounds fired by Waldron damaged a local apartment, most likely putting the life of yet another innocent person at risk.

Among the eyewitnesses to the killing were Jolene Manderfield and her children, who reside in the apartment building and were in the parking lot when Waldron shot Heilman. Jolene’s husband Scott heard the gunshots and raced to the scene to administer CPR in a futile attempt to save the life of the young father.

“When I ran outside, [Waldron] had his gun out,” recalled Scott Manderfield. “I asked who he was and he said he was a cop. He told me to help him flip Tyler over, then he said, `What have I done?’ He was running around frantic.”

Scott and Jolene Manderfield, along with their children Brooke and Eric, testified before a grand jury considering an indictment against Waldron. Eric, 13, was a passenger in Heilman’s vehicle and witnessed the execution-style murder at close range.

After hearing testimony from more than twenty witnesses, the grand jury decided — and wasn’t the suspense just unbearable? — that no charges would be filed against the killer. This permitted Andrew Johnson, assistant attorney for Anoka County, to claim — apparently in all seriousness — that the deputy acted in self-defense when he gunned down an unarmed, barely clothed man who was backing away with his hands raised.

Johnson claims that the grand jury was persuaded by a conveniently anonymous witness who “happened to be driving by and … saw it,” and whose account “is very similar to what the officer said and it contradicts what the witnesses at the scene said.” Johnson refused to provide details of both Waldron’s account and that of the mystery witness, promising that his office “will have more on that very soon,” albeit not “next week.”

Chances are pretty good that this conveniently anonymous and corroborative witness was a fellow member of Waldron’s local fraternity of officially sanctioned bully-boys: Waldron has acknowledged that he called for “backup” as he stalked Heilman to the parking lot. This would explain how such a helpful witness just happened to be “driving by” at the time of the killing, and why grand jurors would defer to his account rather than those of witnesses much closer to the action.

“He went from playing down at the river, living the life, to being shot down in what is practically his own backyard,” Kirs Hoehn said of his murdered friend. “He was a 24-year-old guy with a young son,” a 3-year-old named Haydin.

Immediately after the grand jury’s decision, Waldron’s paid vacation (aka “administrative leave”) was brought to an end and he was returned to the force with his license to murder fully restored.

Sheriff Dave Glisinski told reporters that “it’s great to have him back. He’s a professional investigator and a key to the force.” That comment reveals much about the nature of Sheriff Glisinski’s “force” and its standards of “professionalism.”

Whatever else can be said about Waldron, he is a living argument on behalf of the proposition that government police are consistently a greater menace to life, liberty, and property than private criminals could ever be.

And it will ... get worse ... for them.

"Sad to say isn't it, when one's supposedly own employees aren't worth pissing on if they are burning up in a fire - and that is how I've come to view gov't."




A perfectly infuriating illustration of the former -- an innocent person being assaulted by state-employed agents of violence as punishment for doing nothing --
took place at the Jets-Chargers game yesterday (January 17).




Many who have seen this clip pointed out that the partisan Chargers fans defended the admittedly obnoxious Jets fan after he was seized by a squad of tax-feeders.

What is most noteworthy about this brief clip was the harassment, intimidation and apparent arrest of the most outspoken critic of the police assault. This was done because the individual in question had the presence of mind and apparent strength of character to object when an annoying but harmless man needlessly became the victim of officially sanctioned violence.

When an armed police officer says "Let's go outside" while placing hands on someone and shoving him in the direction of the exit, this constitutes what people in official costumes call an "arrest," and refusing to cooperate constitutes what such people call the supposed crime of "resisting arrest."

No, the specific phrase "you're under arrest" wasn't spoken, but it doesn't have to be: Any time someone wearing the habiliments of the coercive caste detains, restrains, or redirects the progress of a member of the productive class, an "arrest" has taken place. Police were given permission to do this to you at their own discretion -- whether or not you've actually inflicted an injury upon anyone else -- by people whom you've most likely never met and wouldn't care to know.

What if the gentleman in San Diego who was escorted from his seat to "talk" with a police officer had offered the following reply to the officer's invitation: "No, thanks -- if you want to `talk' we can do it right here, in the seat I've paid for, on my terms rather than yours"?

What if he had reacted to the officer's presumptuous (and illegal) gesture of placing hands on him to escort him from the area by knocking the hands away and saying, "You don't have permission to touch me -- keep your hands off!"

There's little reason to doubt that either of those reactions would have resulted in an immediate escalation of aggressive violence by the police officer and his comrades, who would then file a "cover charge" against the victim (most likely "resisting arrest" or "disorderly conduct").

Amid the ugliness of that incident could be seen evidence of a small but welcome change in public attitudes toward state "authority": The Chargers fans, doubtless aggravated by the taunting they endured by a Jets fan as their home team went down to defeat, criticized the police for their needless display of authoritarian violence.

Granted, their reaction (with the exception of the insistent protests of the fan who was "invited" outside) was far too subdued. But even this somewhat timid and torpid resistance is a miraculous improvement over the bovine docility most Americans have displayed as the garrison state has taken shape around us.



Read the rest here.

Be sure to read the comments. Ya just gotta love it. There is still some hope left in America.

The Creepy Mindset Behind Cass Sunstein's Creepy Proposal by Glenn Greenwald

Friday, January 15, 2010

Fellow citizens, you are pathetic little creatures.

A friend of mine, flying home for the holidays, forgot to put his permitted three ounces of shaving cream, toothpaste and mouthwash in a one-quart plastic bag. When he finally made it to the front of the line going through security he was told he could throw the items away or return to the airport concourse, purchase the proper see-through container and re-enter security.

“Why do I need to put them in a plastic bag?” he had the temerity to ask.

“So we can examine them,” was the reply. “It’s for your protection.”

“Well, here,” my friend said, as he tried to hand the offending items to the guard. “You can examine them even better outside a baggie, can’t you?”

“No, sir, they must be placed in a plastic bag. It’s for your protection.”

“But couldn’t you protect me even better by actually examining them? Shouldn’t you squirt a little shaving cream, or take a sip of mouthwash, to make certain the bottle actually contains what it says it does?”

“No, sir, they must be placed in a plastic bag. It’s for your protection. I really must insist that you return to the terminal and get the appropriate container. Or dispose of them here (pointing to a nearly full trash barrel).”

By now the line behind my friend was getting noticeably restive. Mutterings of “C’mon, for God’s sake, we’ve got a plane to catch,” could be heard. But my friend tried once more to apply some common sense to the situation.

“If a plastic bag is so essential, why don’t you have them here at the checkpoint? Why should I have to return to the terminal to buy one and risk missing my plane?”

The security guard had clearly been taught the one magic phrase that she was to use whenever she was questioned: “Sir, it’s for your own protection.”

My friend finally acquiesced to the inevitable. He deposited the offending items in the barrel provided for that purpose and—to the relief of everyone in line behind him—was finally allowed to clear security.


Read the rest.

BARACK OBAMA
THE WHITE HOUSE, January 11, 2010.



America carved into 10 FEMA Regions.




These are also the NORTHCOM regions each with their own Military Regional Commander.



10 Governors?


Figure it out folks for yourself.


Totalitarian “Synchronization” — Germany 1933 and USA 2010

By William Grigg

The German National Socialists used the term Gleichschaltung to describe the “coordination” or “synchronization” of all government functions by centralizing power in the Chief Executive. This process was carried out through a series of executive decrees supposedly authorized by the 1933 Enabling Act, formally known as the “Law for Removing the Distress of People and Reich.”

The September 14, 2001 “Authorization for Use of Military Force” has served a similar function for both George W. Bush and Barack Obama. That measure has been invoked to justify the war in Iraq, the institutionalization of torture, the presidential designation of individuals as “unlawful enemy combatants,” the summary execution of suspected terrorists by means of unmanned Predator drones, and other tyrannical exercises of presidential “authority” in the context of the “war on terror.”

Yesterday (January 11), Barack Obama added another critical element to the architecture of wartime presidential dictatorship by signing an executive order establishing a “Council of Governors” for the supposed purpose of strengthening federal-state “partnership” in military and homeland security affairs.

The body would consist of a bipartisan panel of ten state governors who will “meet at the call” of various executive functionaries, including the Secretaries of Defense and Homeland Security to assist the Supreme Leader in carrying out the “synchronization” — again, what the Nazis called Gleichschaltung — “and integration of State and Federal military activities in the United States.”

According to an official White House press release, this new body will be invaluable in the effort to “relieve the distress of the people and Reich.” No, not really; the statement actually said that the Council “will provide an invaluable Senior Administration forum for exchanging views with State and local officials on strengthening our National resilience and the homeland defense and civil support challenges facing our Nation today and in the future.” Which, come to think of it, is pretty much the same thing.

Taken by itself, this executive order does little more than add another layer of bureaucracy dealing with the use of the National Guard. It should be remembered, however, that in 2006 Congress turned the National Guard into something akin to a Praetorian Guard to be used — whether at home or abroad — as the president desires. This helps explain an obvious and ominous change in the Guard’s definition of its mission and responsibilities, which include hands-on involvement in domestic law enforcement.

It’s also worth pointing out that this new Council represents yet another avenue through which the president can circumvent congressional resistance to military adventurism, in the highly unlikely event that such resistance were to coalesce.

While it’s true that Obama’s executive order will not immediately result in troops flooding our cities and detention camps springing from the soil, it represents a critical milestone on the road to undisguised dictatorship. - LINK

You would think, after 200 years of legislatures legislating laws ... they would at some point run out of things to legislate.

Look people. It has it's tentacles all over you.

Get along now. It's goodness of it all over you is just the thing for you ... isn't it?

Market Street, San Francisco, 1905.



Where are the cops when you need them?

NO WAIT! There is one cop doing his duty 36 seconds into the video!

No DUI, drivers license/insurance, safety, where are you coming from, where are you going, what is in that Pepsi can, can we search your car ... are you wearing your seat belt ... road blocks?

Hey! Wasn't that cop jaywalking?

Must have been after a criminal. That explains it.

Reminds me of ... the animated contest of freedom.

What were they thinking?

Yea.

Freedom is like that.

The Right of Revolution

What others called the right of resistance or the right of revolution is at bottom the natural right of preservation. The supporting case was developed with bold thought and cautious speech by John Locke, whose Second Treatise (no. 2) rightly was regarded by many of the Founders as a fit and necessary text for a self-governing people. An executive's use of force without right left a suffering people with no choice: "cry up their Gouvernours, as much as you will for Sons of Jupiter . . .; give them out for whom or what you please, the same will happen. The People generally ill treated, and contrary to right, will be ready upon any occasion to ease themselves of a burden that sits heavy upon them." Far from instigating "Civil Wars, or Intestine Broils," his doctrine (Locke insisted) would have an opposite effect. The mischiefs concocted by "a busie head, or turbulent spirit" would not succeed in the absence of a general sense of being wronged. In fact the people were, if anything, too slow to resent transgressions. Moreover, a people well instructed in their rights would reduce the likelihood of civil commotions by disabusing would-be tyrants of their wicked fancies.

The Horror!

Obama. The horror. The horror.

Folks, Obama didn't just appear out of some primordial goo and suddenly evolve America into what you see today. The destruction of the republic has many faces and names. Were you free before the rise of Obama? Were you free during the reign of Bush Jr.? Were you free during the reign of Clinton? Were you free during the reign of Bush Sr.? Reagan? Carter?

Ah, I see. You were a little bit freer before Obama, and little bit freer before Bush Jr., and a little bit freer before Clinton, and a little bit freer before each other proceeding president.

I keep pounding this, but many of you are not listening...

We have voted for the dumbocrats all these years ... and here we are.

We have voted for the repukocrats all these years ... and here we are.

Get it yet?

No?

Obama is the continuation of Bush Jr. Bush Jr. is the continuation of Clinton. Clinton is the continuation of Bush Sr. Bush Sr. is the continuation of Reagan. And so forth and so on.

With each election, you have lost freedoms that you took for granted prior to the election of each proceeding president, congressman, senate, and party.

Get it yet?

Sigh.

Okay. The see spot run method.

See, with that president, you had 100 freedoms. With the next president, you lost one freedom and are left with 99 freedoms. With the president after him, you lost one freedom and now are left with 98 freedoms. With each proceeding election, you lose freedoms that you took for granted. And what did you do? You voted in the person in the next election who ... what? That is right class ... took away more of your freedoms.

Now do you get it?

Good.

So my question to you "Oh my gawd! Obama is taking our freedoms away and I am a patriot" is ... where were you before Obama? Where were you before Bush Jr.? Where were you before Clinton? Where were you before Bush Sr.? Reagan? Carter? Nixon?

The problem, as I see it, is that if Obama was suddenly removed from the presidency and Bush Jr. was thrown back on the Cherry Blossom Throne ... most of you would just ... poof ... disappear. Of course that is not going to happen ... but the truth still remains. When most of you get your repukocrat elected in the next presidential election ... most of you will still just disappear.

Why do you think that is?

The obvious truth is that you are repukocrat patriots. Just like the dumbocrats have their patriots.

You are not patriots for your country. You are not patriots for your freedom. You are not patriots for your liberty. You are not patriots for your natural and inalienable rights.

You are party patriots. You are party communitarians.

Why ... if only our party was in power ... we'd all be free!

What am I getting at?

You are in bondage to which ever party ... enslaves you.

While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.

And unless you stay vigilant, the next person you vote into office will no doubt tighten the chain around your neck that was placed there by previous dumbocrats and repukocrats ... that YOU voted for.

And the cycle will continue until you boot every single servant of corruption out of office and replace them with men and woman who fully understand and accept the limitations placed upon them by the constitution.

But that won't happen until you decide to stop feeding at the trough of which ever party of which you are overcome by.

Obama is NOT the cause ... he is a creature of the same system, whether it is called the republicans or democrats, that have over the years progressively brought us to where we are today.

Our fight is not over which party should be in power. Our fight is against the system that has overtaken and destroyed our republican form of government. Our fight is to restore the republic and to FORCE those elected to adhere to the delegated powers and restrictions of our long dead constitution.


What we had: “A Republic, madam, if you can keep it.” Benjamin Franklin

How to keep it: “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.” - Thomas Jefferson

When peaceful means fail: “Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!” - Patrick Henry


Get it?


"Is it that insidious smile with which our petition has been lately received? Trust it not, sir; it will prove a snare to your feet. Suffer not yourselves to be betrayed with a kiss."


***

This needs to be repeated, lest none of you read the comments section. Contemplate on these words spoken by a man who would be appalled at our lack of liberty and freedoms, when he fought in his time when his liberties and freedom far outweighed ours...

Contemplate the mangled bodies of your countrymen, and then say, ‘What should be the reward of such sacrifices?’ Bid us and our posterity bow the knee, supplicate the friendship, and plough, and sow, and reap, to glut the avarice of the men who have let loose on us the dogs of war to riot in our blood and hunt us from the face of the earth? If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.
Samuel Adams, speech at the Philadelphia State House, August 1, 1776

Thanks brother for posting this in the comments section.

There is a man I know who has a red leg. He says:

I am a Constitutional Patriot and warrior for individual freedom who loves confronting statists, collectivists, authority worshipers, controlers, police state apologists, and gun grabbers. It is my belief that "The Right to Keep and Bear Arms" is the most important and fundamental of ALL of the freedoms which our founders codified in the Bill of Rights. For without it, all of the other freedoms enumerated there will most assuredly dissappear!

Damn right brother!


I am going prove to you that the right to bear arms is an individual right ... AND a collective right:

It was asked of me if I ever write. I do, on occasion. I just never kept track of it throughout computer land. But here is one example:

Federalist Paper No. 84, by Alexander Hamilton, states:

I go further, and affirm that bills of rights, in the sense and to the extent in which they are contended for, are not only unnecessary in the proposed Constitution, but would even be dangerous.

They would contain various exceptions to powers not granted; and, on this very account, would afford a colorable pretext to claim more than were granted.

For why declare that things shall not be done which there is no power to do?

Why, for instance, should it be said that the liberty of the press shall not be restrained, when no power is given by which restrictions may be imposed?

I will not contend that such a provision would confer a regulating power; but it is evident that it would furnish, to men disposed to usurp, a plausible pretense for claiming that power.

They might urge with a semblance of reason, that the Constitution ought not to be charged with the absurdity of providing against the abuse of an authority which was not given, and that the provision against restraining the liberty of the press afforded a clear implication, that a power to prescribe proper regulations concerning it was intended to be vested in the national government. This may serve as a specimen of the numerous handles which would be given to the doctrine of constructive powers, by the indulgence of an injudicious zeal for bills of rights.

Now, note that Hamilton says: "Why, for instance, should it be said that the liberty of the press shall not be restrained, when no power is given by which restrictions may be imposed?"

Hamilton could have very well said: "Why, for instance, should it be said that the liberty to keep and bear arms shall not be restrained, when no power is given by which restrictions may be imposed?"

The same can be said for religion.

Where do you find delegated authority and restrictions? In the Constitution. Where in the Constitution does anyone read where power is given by which restrictions may be imposed on the right of individuals to keep and bear arms?

Hamilton was not really "anti-Bill of Rights." His argument was that, if the Bill of Rights were added to the Constitution, it would: "... furnish, to men disposed to usurp, a plausible pretense for claiming that power. That they ... "might urge with a semblance of reason, that the Constitution ought not to be charged with the absurdity of providing against the abuse of an authority which was not given, and that the provision against restraining the liberty of the press afforded a clear implication, that a power to prescribe proper regulations concerning it was intended to be vested in the national government."

If it is not restricted by the Constitution ... nor delegated by the same ... there is absolutely no power.

Now, I ask all of you in good faith, can you find anywhere in the Constitution where power is given by which restrictions may be imposed on the right of individuals to keep and bear arms?

Unfortunately, Hamilton's worst fears concerning a Bill of Rights have come to light.

We do nothing ... so now you know why.

This was e-mailed to me by a friend. I believe it came from the Sipsey Street Irregulars Blog. Read on:

As we discussed, I was invited to address a group in the El Paso/Las Cruces area. This invitation was the result of one of the members of this group hearing me address the gathering in Mountainair back in September. The member who invited me told me he wanted my talk to his group to be as hard hitting as the one he had heard up north.

The Group I addressed appeared to be of higher economic strata than typically attends.

I started with a quote from, von Clausewitz, about he necessity of knowing what kind of war one was actually fighting. How one must not try to make the war fit your theories, but rather base strategy on what the war really is. I told them it would be helpful to first look at where we had come from before we started plotting a course forward. I started off with my history, it seemed to get their attention when I pointed out that I was one of a handful of men who had actually led hundreds of armed men on real missions in defiance of a President. That gave me an insight into many aspects of this movement that others don’t have. I walked the group through the evolution of the movement from the ‘70’s survivalists to the early neo militias of the ‘70’s and 80’, thru the height of the Militia movement of the ‘90’s.

I talked about the rise of the Minutemen in defiance of George W. Moved on over to the angry and strident advocacy of the tea party rallies and town hall confrontations of the summer. I pointed out that the Minutemen were successful in achieving their goal of bringing illegal immigration to the forefront of American Politics BECAUSE of their defiance. Same with the Tea Party/ Town Hall effectively stopping the Obama administration and forcing this ridiculous farce we see now. The point I hammered home was it is only when we start trying to go mainstream or get to thinking we need to be polite that we become impotent.

I then moved into Just standing up and being insistent was not enough. We had to find others to stand up with us. We needed to be able to put 500 People on the State house steps with 48hrs notice. We need to unite. I then observed that our movement historically has been unable to unite. Told them how at the last “Patriot Summit” I had attended, no one came to Unite, rather had come to have everyone unite behind their particular cause.

I then began the argument that a return to Constitutional Governance could Unite the “Patriots” of this country. The Constitution is the only thing that covers all the reasons for anger.

“We can spend the rest of our lives fighting these one hundred different fronts. Or we can realize that no matter what your issue is, be it 2nd Amendment, Land Rights, Health Care, Cap and Trade, Children’s Protective Issues, Taxes, the Federal Reserve, or whatever. Each of these issues had the same root cause. That cause is a Federal Government who has ignored the limits placed on them by the Constitution. The Government we suffer under is a usurper Government. An illegitimate body operating outside all legal boundaries established at this government’s founding.

We can continue to stand apart in sullen indifference to those fellow patriots who are focused on a different usurpation than we, or we can UNITE behind that Constitution. All patriots recognize that document as the essential foundation of what it means to be American. (At this time, someone made a smart assed comment about the birth certificate controversy and I diverted some what and said, ”Look, I agree something is fishy about the document, however never fall into the trap that being American is solely a matter of geography. One could be born in Independence Hall on the fourth of July. But, if he doesn’t have certain key beliefs, he is not really an American. Those key beliefs are enshrined in those two essential documents: The Declaration of Independence and The Constitution of the United States.) I then used that to segue back into the talk about uniting with other Patriots behind the Constitution.

I then said, “People like to throw around that word revolution…. Sounds so…dangerous maybe a little sexy. But the truth is the American People are the Government. Clearly those people we picked to be our representatives to the National Government have stopped listening to their employers. The clear message on Amnesty sent by the American people…by YOU, the clear message sent on this Healthcare debacle… by YOU. Same, same Cap and Trade, Gun Control, Gay Marriage and a plethora of other issues made clear, by the American people, what their will was, and completely ignored by our representatives.

I submit to you tonight that REVOLUTION has come to Our Republic. That, it is the Government who now stands in OPEN ARROGANT REBELLION TO IT’S PEOPLE. They have made it CLEAR that they do not represent us anymore. Remember this, if you remember nothing else. The elitist conservative Republican Senator has far more in common with, and will identify far more with an elite Liberal Democrat Senator than he will ever identify with you!
If this Republic is to be saved, it will not be saved by the very bureaucrats who seek to destroy it. If the Republic is to be saved, it must be saved by YOU! You working in unison with other Patriots who are committed to seeing the Constitution returned to its place of Supremacy.

The next point is critical. How far should we go in order to restore Constitutional Government? We must make them understand, with no room for confusion that we are prepared to go to ANY length to restore the Republic. We are ready to undertake ANY hardship, complete ANY unpleasant task, endure any retribution, and turn our energies, our creativity, our devotion to all tasks, no matter how repugnant, that insure our children and grand children inherit the same birthright we inherited.”

One of the more popular quotes from our founders is the, “We Pledge Our Lives, Our Fortunes and Our Sacred Honors”. A dramatic statement oft repeated by Patriots everywhere, but what does that pledge really mean?

I pledge my Life…. most think what that means is they are willing to die for Liberty. However, that pledge means so much more. What that pledge really means is, you dedicate your life to that cause. It is not about dying folks, its about LIVING for the cause…. Living for liberty. Every day, is another day to battle those who seek to deny us, that which is ours by birthright, and we should REJOICE in that battle! We should not dread it or fear it or resent it. Whole generations go by in boredom and mediocrity, denied a chance to prove the greatness of their generation. We have been blessed to live in a time where greatness is what the time demands. Thank God that you are going to be part of that greatness. We know our cause is right, we know our cause is just and in accordance with both law and history. We know that we must not fail, for failure has consequences far beyond our temporal existence. Our failure will punish countless generations in every corner of the globe, not just our own beautiful republic.

I Pledge My Fortune… most of us think our “fortune” may be seized by a tyrannical government or “I’ll buy a really expensive weapon and a lot of MRE’s, and that will be my commitment on fortune. Yes, you can do that. No one will compel you to do any thing else. However, if we use our founders pledge as the standard this pledge means so much more than the example I just gave. What the pledge meant to our founders was their fortunes were now at the disposal of the “cause”. Most of us have read the e-mail that goes around about what happened to those who made that original pledge.

Read that and you get an idea what that pledge really means. The original pledges stripped their plantations of supplies and horses and gave to the cause. That would be comparable to you giving one of your cars to the cause, a spare computer, most of your savings, and because those plantations were the original pledges source of income, you would donate most of your paycheck to the cause, as well.

But no one will compel you to fulfill this pledge, or regulate to what level you have to fulfilled it. That is up to you and your conscience. But even now, in the back of your mind there is a hope that SOMEONE is building a resistance. Subconsciously, you pray that should our political efforts fail that there are hard men out there ready to do the hard things necessary to preserve our way of life. But… are you ready to support those hard men as they build the skills and logistical tail that will be necessary?? Are you ready to commit your fortune to putting beans in the belly and bullets in the bandoleers of those hard men we fantasize are out there... somewhere???


Our Sacred Honors: Honor is a word that has lost favor in the modern world. It’s meaning as it relates to the founders is lost on a land of relativism and public education. So, with your indulgence I will tell you what this means to me. If I willingly take this pledge, then how do I honorably fulfill that pledge? I believe that first I must remain focused on the cause I have pledged myself to. Next, every aspect of my life must be filtered through that pledge. Do I take vacation to Vail/Cabo, or do I spend my vacation at the rally in Santa Fe, or working a Minuteman line in Arizona, or training a Unit from Alabama or Texas?? Keeping the pledge in mind what is the “Honorable” thing to do?? When I do any self-assessment I must judge everything about myself as to how it relates to this great cause. Have I done all I can do? Did I handle the meeting with another group well? Did I keep the success of the cause foremost in my mind when dealing with a difficult patriot, or did I allow ego, or impatience to over ride? Because I have willingly made this pledge, I MUST judge myself by how well I serve that cause.

In addition, I expect to be judged by my peers, fellow patriots, family and friends by the same criteria. And most important I believe that this Nation and the Liberty we enjoy are gifts from a benevolent God. It follows then, that even as I face the judgment seat of the Majesty of Heaven, my dedication to that pledge will be factored.

I concluded shortly after, and the floor was opened for questions. During this period, someone in the crowd asked, “How it was that the Government thought they could get away with it”. Fixing the group with as stern a visage as I could manage, speaking softly and bringing my voice up in tenor and tempo as I spoke, I said: ”They spit in the face of our God and declared OUR GOD unfit to be in our schools, and WE DID NOTHING!!

They have turned our women away from our homes and our children and transformed them into some perverse version of some oversexed Junior High kid’s fantasies. And WE DID NOTHING!!

They take our tax money and hire perverts to come into our schools and tell our male children the most vile of sexual deviancy as an “alternative” they should explore. That’s right. YOU pay people to pervert your children, and WE DO NOTHING!!

Why shouldn’t they expect us to knuckle under? We always have! Let’s surprise the heck out of them this time. Let us unite into a grass roots conflagration of Constitutional fervor that NO Congressman dare stand in front of.

Let us be willing, and if necessary, anxious to utilize all of the founders protections. Let us not fear the most dreaded of courses, but rather let our souls sing with the songs of our fathers as we begin the restoration that will be our Legacy, our Legend, our Gift to all that come after us.

News

Here’s a news flash: Half the globe (and, currently, 95 percent of Afghanistan) is ruled by benighted thugs whose customs and behavior wouldn’t pass muster with the EEOC, the ADA, the EPA, the National Organization for Women, or PETA — though they might find a champion in the North American Man-Boy Love Association. We can’t afford to send troops to fix them all. Once the Democrats get done turning the U.S. dollar into rainbow confetti, we won’t be able to afford to send them a firm note.

What, precisely, would a strong, centralized welfare/police state offer the average Afghan?

Right now, the average 14-year-old Afghan male is trusted with a rifle and care of his family’s fields or flocks. What he does NOT face is an arbitrary and artificial extension of his “childhood” to keep him unmarried and out of the “labor force” till he’s at least 18, if not 22.

In America, the average 14-year-old male will return next week to his ongoing 12-year incarceration in the local mandatory government youth propaganda camp, subject to punishment by his union schoolmarms should he show any dangerous signs of testosterone poisoning. This is actually a pretty good training ground for the adult life he can anticipate, forking over half his earnings in permanent enslavement to a massively intrusive welfare/police state that would have appalled any American of 1909, let alone 1776.
