The right to protect you

Cedar Falls is planning a lock box system where keys to all commercial property would be kept. This would allow access to businesses and large rental buildings to governmental agencies.

Some clown on the city council said he believed the city had the right to protect you.



What could possibly go wrong?

Obligatory MLK post

With a reason, though.

Sofa posted an idea on how to honor our civil rights icon - Honor MLK: Disobey Unjust Laws

Can you think of any unjust laws in the USA, your state, your county? How about your city? Don't forget your homeowners associations or historical districts.

Instead of a day of service, how about a day of civil disobedience?

I can't think of a better way to honor him.

State29 on anti-immigration legislation protestation

State29 gives us a look into The Des Moines register love-fest with illegal slave labor in Iowa. As well as a look into history of Iowa politicians and their tendencies to favor the illegals coming over the boarder.

The far left has a very tiny playbook. Whether it's the anti-tax, anti-big government, anti-bailout, anti-$2 trillion deficit TEA Party crowd or whether it's amnesty and government bennies for criminal illegal aliens, if you oppose them they will brand you as XENOPHOBIC or RACIST or BIGOTED. Does The Des Moines Register Know What Article IV Section 4 Of The Constitution Says?

Which states:

The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.

Here is a group of people being exploited because they are poor in a foreign land and willing to work hard on the cheap. (There is a criminal element here but we have criminal citizens, too). He refers to them as "political slaves.

I can't begrudge anyone wanting to come here for a job or for freedom. I'd like all freedom loving people to come and stay here.

We should be a doing a better job of exporting that freedom to other countries so that citizens can start their own "shining city on a hill" in wherever they live. Not because "they need to go back where they came from" but because every person on this earth is born with certain unalienable rights.

Just because a government denies those rights, doesn't mean they don't have those rights.

Leftist hypocrisy posted by Bawb

Bawb once again makes the case against the leftist hypocrites in America and gives us some prime examples of their "free speech only for those who agree with us". A sample:

"I believe in ecoterrorism." -- James Cameron

"F*** God D*mned Joe the God D*mned Motherf*cking plumber! I want Motherf*cking Joe the plumber dead." -- Charles Karel Bouley, liberal talk show host on the air.

"I know how the 'tea party' people feel, the anger, venom and bile that many of them showed during the recent House vote on health-care reform. I know because I want to spit on them, take one of their 'Obama Plan White Slavery' signs and knock every racist and homophobic tooth out of their Cro-Magnon heads." -- Courtland Milloy, Washington Post

And they call Tea Party members racist. Find more quotes at HATE, VIOLENCE, EXTREMISM, RACISM...SORRY, THAT'S A ONE-WAY STREET

And Clinton labels us "hatriot(s)"

Bawb also brings to light an Anti Defamation League report calling for law-enforcement action against anyone who might protest or disagree with the current regime in DC. His reply:

That's right, boys and girls. If you dare to mention that the emperor has no clothes, get ready for some jackboots and jail cells. Tea Partiers are not, apparently, protected by the First Amendment.

Following up Bawb's report with a post from Mike Vanderboegh at Bill Clinton, the OKC Boogyman and the other boogymen who really haunt his sleep giving us a history lesson on the Oklahoma City bombing and who was responsible and who was responsible for covering their collective arses. In that post Mike believes that freedom groups like the OathKeepers and Three Percenters are getting into the political powers' heads.

I would add that countless unknown people who have not publicly identified themselves as part of these groups, at the very least identify and agree with the underlying issues that are driving the more public leaders. Some of whom the SPLC lumped into a report labeling them as "terrorists".

Maybe that should scare them more.
