Iacobus Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 Curtins, I someday hope you figure it all out and can someday look around you and understand. You are, as shown by your last post, a person without any knowledge of his nation, and because you "love" America so much I am going to give you a short history lesson. [quote]But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.[/quote] Can you tell me what document I took that from? The Declaration of Independence. Do you know what T. Jefferson is saying there? When he says "it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Goverment?" He is saying that it is you job to complain, watch, hold your goverment accountable to you. If it fails to serve you and your fellow citizens, than it is your God given right and duty to do something about it. If you don't like America, which I highly doubt is the case with Good Friday or any of the other "Anti-American" Americans, than the last thing you should do is leave. It is your duty to stand up and scream from every mountain that "America is suffering, and here is why!" [quote]Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.[/quote] Now, can you tell me where I dug up this little gem? I know, it is hard to find now that we have no need for these "civil liberties" because they protect terrorists, but it is still in effect. Now, riddle me this, what does U.S. Const. art. VI, Paragraph 2 say? Okay, times up. It says, [quote]This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the contrary notwithstanding.[/quote] In short, it means "This is the Bible of U.S. Law, nothing can supcede these words and it runs all the land." Because the 1st Admendment is part of the US Con, than, according to the Supremacy Clause, GF doesn't have to like America to live here, but more to the point, he doesn't have to censor his speech only to praise of the US to be protected by law. The whole history of why the US was founded was from a disagreement from England and than a disagreement between the states, and a disagreement between the parties (the Feds and the Anti-Feds). Next time you tell someone to leave America because they don't love her, rember that all the Founding Father's disliked parts of America, America was founded on desent, and even Abe Lincoln opposed the Mexican War.
popestpiusx Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 (edited) Now isn’t this an interesting thread. Just a few non-theological, slightly reactionary thoughts on this subject: 1)Suicide is a tragedy. Pray for his soul. 2)Suicide is selfish as hell. Nothing is worth killing yourself over. 3)There is no excuse for suicide. 4)I am a traditionalist and a monarchist. I’m not crazy about this war. I didn’t vote for Bush. 5)I served four years (under bezaubernde Frau, Frau des Hauses Clinton) in the Marines. 6)When I signed the papers, not a month after starting my senior year of high school, I knew beaver dam good and well that I may be called on to serve in war, and that I may not like the conditions of that war. 7)Not surprisingly, I had to take part in the preliminary actions of Clinton’s wag the dog operation in Kosavo. I’ll say nothing more about that, as there is nothing more to say. 8)When you sign the papers, you belong to them. Unless an action is manifestly unjust, you are bound to your oath (sorry, I had to break into theology a little). 9)Stop kissing phatmass [color=red]Edited by Kilroy the Ninja[/color] Edited January 14, 2005 by Kilroy the Ninja

Guest Aluigi Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 (edited) i'm a distributist and republican only in the Irish sense, though I did support Bush because I kinda like his policies and stuff especially compared to the other options Edited January 14, 2005 by Aluigi
dUSt Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 [quote name='Good Friday' date='Jan 13 2005, 10:27 PM'] Bumped for dUSt and the moderators, who are evidently sleeping on the job. [/quote] Thanks. I will not respond to your criticisms of me except to say that your information regarding who has/hasn't been suspended is wrong. God bless.
