Definitely not the norm, nor ethical, for that matter. Unfortunately, in todays unrighteous world, it doesn't seem to be viewed as a problem by many liberals, and RINO's.
That is already the law. Both the father and the mother have a say. Not too many fathers try to fight though. Any "law" passed by any legislature infringing on the fathers rights is null and void by virtue of being unconstitutional.
Do you really think that they can't find doctors willing to sterilize them when they can easily find doctors to kill unborn children, and perform gender mutilation operations on minors?
Milk is real milk, or raw milk, or pure milk, up until they pasteurize it. Then it is chemically altered, and is no longer milk.
Actually, they cannot "destroy" the Constitution. It is merely the framework creating government. It is also not possible due to Derativa potestas non potest esse major primitiva.
If government goes rogue, we have a God-given inalienable right to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Without the Constitution, our government is a power without a right.
FLOW OF POLITICAL POWER:
Derativa potestas non potest esse major primitiva
The power which is derived cannot be greater than that from which it is derived
The creator always has more power than the created
In other words:
FLOW OF POLITICAL POWER:
The People -> Constituion -> Federal Government Creator Framework Created
He argued with me on X in regards to the lack of legitimate authority for our government to be aiding abetting the Ukraine government in its war with Russia. He is definitely a RINO and war-monger.
I apologize, I didn't mean you were brainwashed. That is what government wants everyone to believe so people get mad at each other for not paying "fair shares", rather than asking why government needs so much of our money.
I am actually considering running to primary Markwayne Mullin for 2026.
There is no such thing as your share, or their share. That is just brainwashed talk. The fact is that none of us should be paying tax. Tariffs were the way our founders went, not direct taxation on the people. Only those working for the federal government had a tax liability.
Since strongarming taxes upon us, government has raised taxes to find ways to use it, not to meet increased costs. They have created unconstitutional departments, programs, and causes to spend money on, and then want more like the greedy bastards they are.
“The government taxes you when you bring home a paycheck. It taxes you when you make a phone call. It taxes you when you turn on a light. It taxes you when you sell a stock. It taxes you when you fill your car with gas. It taxes you when you ride a plane. It taxes you when you get married. Then it taxes you when you die. This is taxual insanity and it must end.” ~ J. C. Watts, Jr. (1957- ) US Congressman from Oklahoma (R), former quarterback in the Canadian Football League
“To lay taxes to provide for the general welfare of the United States, that is to say, 'to lay taxes for the purpose of providing for the general welfare.' For the laying of taxes is the power, and the general welfare the purpose for which the power is to be exercised. They are not to lay taxes ad libitum for any purpose they please; but only to pay the debts or provide for the welfare of the Union.” ~ Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), US Founding Father, drafted the Declaration of Independence, 3rd US President
“But how is this legal plunder to be identified? Quite simply. See if the law takes from some persons what belongs to them, and gives it to other persons to whom it does not belong. See if the law benefits one citizen at the expense of another by doing what the citizen himself cannot do without committing a crime.” ~ Frederic Bastiat (1801-1850) [Claude Frederic Bastiat] French economist, statesman, and author. He did most of his writing during the years just before -- and immediately following -- the French Revolution of February 1848 "The Law" by Frederic Bastiat (1848)
“The collection of taxes which are not absolutely required, which do not beyond reasonable doubt contribute to the public welfare, is only a species of legalized larceny. The wise and correct course to follow in taxation is not to destroy those who have already secured success, but to create conditions under which everyone will have a better chance to be successful.” ~ Calvin Coolidge (1872-1933) 30th US President
“It would be thought a hard government that should tax its people one tenth part.” ~ Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) US Founding Father
“To compel a man to furnish contributions of money for the propagation of opinions which he disbelieves and abhors, is sinful and tyrannical.” ~ Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), US Founding Father, drafted the Declaration of Independence, 3rd US President Virginia Statutes of Religious Freedom, 1779.
“I cannot undertake to lay my finger on that article of the Constitution which granted a right to Congress of expending, on the objects of benevolence, the money of their constituents.” ~ James Madison (1751-1836), Father of the Constitution for the USA, 4th US President 1792, in disapproval of Congress appropriating $15,000 to assist some French refugees
“Beware the greedy hand of government, thrusting itself into every corner and crevice of industry.” ~ Thomas Paine (1737-1809) US Founding father, pamphleteer, author
“The theory of the IRS is rather repugnant to me because the assumption is made that I, the government, owns 100% of your income and I permit you to keep 5%, 10% or 20%. You're vulnerable, you've sold out. The government can take 80% if they want, which they did at one time.” ~ Dr. Ron Paul (1935-) American physician, US Congressman (R-TX), US Presidential candidate Candidates@Google interview, July 13, 2007
There is no such thing as Constitutional Rights. They do not exist, nor have they ever existed.
What he should have said is the Constitution doesn't protect anyone that commits treason with a foreign country.
Except, that would be wrong, as well. Government cannot take anyone's rights, treason, or not. They come from our Creator, period. They can put them on trial for the crimes they are accused of committing, and, if found guilty, sentence them. In cases of treason, it should always be a capital crime.
“The Framers of the Bill of Rights did not purport to “create” rights. Rather they designed the Bill of Rights to prohibit our Government from infringing rights and liberties presumed to be preexisting.” ~ Justice William J. Brennan (1906-1997) U. S. Supreme Court Justice 1982
“[You have Rights] antecedent to all earthly governments: Rights, that cannot be repealed or restrained by human laws; Rights, derived from the Great Legislator of the universe.” ~ John Adams (1735-1826) Founding Father, 2nd US President A Dissertation on the Canon and Feudal Law, 1765
“It is sufficiently obvious, that persons and property are the two great subjects on which Governments are to act; and that the rights of persons, and the rights of property, are the objects, for the protection of which Government was instituted. These rights cannot well be separated.” ~ James Madison (1751-1836), Father of the Constitution for the USA, 4th US President Speech at the Virginia Convention, December 2, 1829
“Now all acts of legislature apparently contrary to natural right and justice, are, in our laws, and must be in the nature of things, considered as void. The laws of nature are the laws of God: A legislature must not obstruct our obedience to him from whose punishments they cannot protect us. All human constitutions which contradict His laws, we are in conscience bound to disobey. Such have been the adjudications of our courts of justice.” ~ George Mason (1725-1792), drafted the Virgina Declaration of Rights, ally of James Madison and George Washington
“Among the natural Rights of the Colonists are these: First, a Right to Life; secondly, to Liberty; thirdly, to Property; together with the Right to support and defend them in the best Manner they can. Those are evident Branches of, rather than Deductions from, the Duty of Self-Preservation, commonly called the first Law of Nature.” ~ Samuel Adams (1722-1803), was known as the "Father of the American Revolution." The Votes and Proceedings of the Freeholders and Other Inhabitants of the Town of Boston in Town Meeting Assembled, According to Law. Published by Order of the Town. Oct 1772
My wife and I voted Trump on the first day of early voting in Washington County, OK.
Birthright citizenship was never legal. Our founders defined that your parents had to be citizens. It further follows that if you are here illegally, any children you bare as an invader do not qualify for citizenship, either.
Our founding fathers did not feel it had to be spelled out in crayon since it was basic common sense back then.
I voted for him in 2016, 2020, and now, 2024.
We have the right to convene our own courts, our own Grand Juries, our own Juries, etc.
All authority of government comes from us. We are the source, and we have the right to cut out the middle-man if they are corrupt and no longer serving their charter.
That is what was meant when our Founders stated we had an unalienable right to change our government representatives without replacing our form of government. We do not need permission, or elections, to remove corrupt politicians from office. Government must follow the rules laid out, but we laid them out, and they do not apply to us when we are betrayed.
There was a reason he was targeted by the communist democrats and RINO's trying to take him out. Because they knew he would not stand by and let them steal Texas.
I disagree. We have had just as great before, and will again. God always raises someone up at the times he appoints to meet the unique challenges of that time. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and our other Founders, Andrew Jackson, JFK, Ronald Reagan, and now Donald J. Trump.
Government actually has no legitimate authority to keep anything secret from us. We are the source of the government limited authority, and we did not give it authority to keep anything from us.
“The liberties of a people never were, nor ever will be, secure, when the transactions of their rulers may be concealed from them.” ~ Patrick Henry (1736-1799) US Founding Father
“Truth never envelops itself in mystery, and the mystery in which it is at any time enveloped is the work of its antagonist, and never of itself.” ~ Thomas Paine (1737-1809) US Founding father, pamphleteer, author
“Secrecy is the beginning of tyranny.” ~ Robert A. Heinlein (1907-1988) American writer
“One of the things that bothers me most is the growing belief in the country that security is more important than freedom. It ain't.” ~ Lyn Nofziger [Franklyn C. Nofziger] (1924-2006) American journalist, political consultant, author, Press Secretary for President Reagan
“The major function of secrecy in Washington is to keep the U.S. people ... from knowing what the nation’s leaders are doing.” ~ John Stockwell (1937-) U.S. Marine Corps Major, and Chief of Station and National Security Council coordinator for the CIA
Yes, Ron Paul is a true American and constitutionalist, but he was not alone. There were others just as correct, and just as ridiculed. Unfortunately, their names are all but forgotten. Very much like the names of those that founded our Constitutional Republic.
Ron was persistent and unwavering in standing up for the truth in the face of persecution and ridicule by almost everyone, regardless of political party affiliation.
Michael Badnarik is another we shouldn't forget. He had one of the best Constitution education class I have ever seen. https://archive.org/details/Michael_Badnarik
Banning them is not the right course. If morons want to take them, it is their right to do so, just as much as it is ours no to take them.
What can be done by government, legitimately, is to require legitimate science be followed in creating medicines with openly published and transparent peer reviewed testing proving they work as intended, with no side effects. This can be done at the federal level by virtue of interstate commerce.
The other part of the solution is enforcing the prohibition on government infringement on our individual rights. They cannot mandate anything to us, period.
“Today, when a concerted effort is made to obliterate this point, it cannot be repeated too often that the Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals -- that it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government -- that it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government.” ~ Ayn Rand [Alisa Zinov'yevna Rosenbaum] (1905-1982) Russian-American novelist, philosopher, playwright, and screenwriter
“Any group or “collective,” large or small, is only a number of individuals. A group can have no rights other than the rights of its individual members. In a free society, the “rights” of any group are derived from the rights of its members through their voluntary individual choice and contractual agreement, and are merely the application of these individual rights to a specific undertaking... A group, as such, has no rights.” ~ Ayn Rand [Alisa Zinov'yevna Rosenbaum] (1905-1982) Russian-American novelist, philosopher, playwright, and screenwriter Collectivized Rights
“The difference between [socialism and fascism] is superficial and purely formal, but it is significant psychologically: it brings the authoritarian nature of a planned economy crudely into the open. The main characteristic of socialism (and of communism) is public ownership of the means of production, and, therefore, the abolition of private property. The right to property is the right of use and disposal. Under fascism, men retain the semblance or pretense of private property, but the government holds total power over its use and disposal.” ~ Ayn Rand [Alisa Zinov'yevna Rosenbaum] (1905-1982) Russian-American novelist, philosopher, playwright, and screenwriter “The Fascist New Frontier,” The Ayn Rand Column, p.98
“We are fast approaching the stage of the ultimate inversion: the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens may act only by permission; which is the stage of the darkest periods of human history, the stage of rule by brute force.” ~ Ayn Rand [Alisa Zinov'yevna Rosenbaum] (1905-1982) Russian-American novelist, philosopher, playwright, and screenwriter
“There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws.” ~ Ayn Rand [Alisa Zinov'yevna Rosenbaum] (1905-1982) Russian-American novelist, philosopher, playwright, and screenwriter
“Whenever destroyers appear among men, they start by destroying money, for money is men’s protection and the base of a moral existence. Destroyers seize gold and leave to its owners a counterfeit pile of paper. This kills all objective standards and delivers men into the arbitrary power of an arbitrary setter of values. Gold was an objective value, an equivalent of wealth produced. Paper is a mortgage on wealth that does not exist, backed by a gun aimed at those who are expected to produce it. Paper is a check drawn by legal looters upon an account which is not theirs: upon the virtue of the victims. Watch for the day when it bounces, marked: "Account Overdrawn.” ~ Ayn Rand [Alisa Zinov'yevna Rosenbaum] (1905-1982) Russian-American novelist, philosopher, playwright, and screenwriter Atlas Shrugged, p. 385-386, (1957).
Rights do not originate with Men. Not from the Constitution, nor from the Amendments to the Constitution.
The Bill of Rights is not directed at us, it is a written reminder of the prohibition of government infringement of not only those rights enumerated, but of all our other unalienable rights.
So, by removing an Amendment, you are just removing a written admonishment to government. It has no bearing on us, nor on our rights since those rights originate from our Creator, and pre-exist any government on Earth.
“The fundamental source of all your errors, sophisms, and false reasonings, is a total ignorance of the natural rights of mankind. Were you once to become acquainted with these, you could never entertain a thought, that all men are not, by nature, entitled to a parity of privileges. You would be convinced, that natural liberty is a gift of the beneficent Creator, to the whole human race; and that civil liberty is founded in that; and cannot be wrested from any people, without the most manifest violation of justice. Civil liberty is only natural liberty, modified and secured by the sanctions of civil society. It is not a thing, in its own nature, precarious and dependent on human will and caprice; but it is conformable to the constitution of man, as well as necessary to the well-being of society.” ~ Alexander Hamilton (1757-1804) American statesman, Secretary of the Treasury The Farmer Refuted, February 23, 1775
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.” ~ Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), US Founding Father, drafted the Declaration of Independence, 3rd US President The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America , July 4, 1776
“God who gave us life gave us liberty. And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure if we have removed their only firm basis: a conviction in the minds of men that these liberties are the gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath? Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever.” ~ Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), US Founding Father, drafted the Declaration of Independence, 3rd US President
“The Framers of the Bill of Rights did not purport to “create” rights. Rather they designed the Bill of Rights to prohibit our Government from infringing rights and liberties presumed to be preexisting.” ~ Justice William J. Brennan (1906-1997) U. S. Supreme Court Justice 1982
No, we do not need to alter the Tetons.
He fought and conquered his demons and made a huge success out of his life by speaking out from the heart against the evils around us all. So I support him, and his music, 100%.
It isn't him, or his army of lawyers, that are the problem. it is the compromised judges and corrupt courts that choose to hear cases with no merit in fact or law.
There was just cause to question the 2020 election results. There is just cause to question the 2024 election outcome, based upon plenty of events and evidence that has already come to light. However, there is no cause to question the results of Trump winning, based upon the very same events and evidence already brought to light.
Regardless, if they force a forensic investigation into the election all that will be found is that Trump won, despite the vast election fraud arrayed against him by the democrats.
No matter how you slice it, Trump wins. If, after that, they still refuse to heed the will of the People, it is then the right of the People to throw off those traitors, and install the legitimate government that they chose.
“Government is instituted for the common good; for the protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness of the people; and not for profit, honor, or private interest of any one man, family, or class of men; therefore, the people alone have an incontestable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness require it.” ~ John Adams (1735-1826) Founding Father, 2nd US President Thoughts on Government, 1776
“Let us disappoint the Men who are raising themselves upon the ruin of this Country.” ~ Samuel Adams (1722-1803), was known as the "Father of the American Revolution." November 20th, 1772, the Votes and Proceedings of the Town of Boston were printed in the 'Boston Pamphlet' and sent to each Town stating the Rights of the Colonists.
“The right to revolt has sources deep in our history.” ~ William O. Douglas (1898-1980), U. S. Supreme Court Justice An Almanac of Liberty, 1954
“Here in America we are descended in blood and in spirit from revolutionists and rebels -- men and women who dare to dissent from accepted doctrine. As their heirs, we may never confuse honest dissent with disloyal subversion.” ~ Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890-1969), 34th US President, WWII General Speech, Columbia University, 1954
“They [the founders] proclaimed to all the world the revolutionary doctrine of the divine rights of the common man. That doctrine has ever since been the heart of the American faith.” ~ Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890-1969), 34th US President, WWII General
“The people are Sovereign. ... at the Revolution, the sovereignty devolved on the people; and they are truly the sovereigns of the country, but they are sovereigns without subjects... with none to govern but themselves; the citizens of America are equal as fellow citizens, and as joint tenants in the sovereignty.” ~ John Jay (1745-1829) first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, First President of the United States - preceding George Washington, one of three men most responsible for the US Constitution Chisholm v. Georgia, (US) 2 Dall 419, 454, 1 L Ed 440, 455 @Dall 1793 pp471-472
“Why then sir, why do we longer delay? Why still deliberate? Let this happy day give birth to an American Republic. Let her arise not to devastate and to conquer but to reestablish the reign of peace and law. The eyes of Europe are fixed upon us. She demands of us a living example of freedom that may exhibit a contrast in the felicity of the citizen to the ever-increasing tyranny which desolates her polluted shores. She invites us to prepare an asylum where the unhappy may find solace, and the persecuted repose. If we are not this day wanting in our duty, the names of the American legislators of 1776 will be placed by posterity at the side of all of those whose memory has been and ever will be dear to virtuous men and good citizens.” ~ Richard Henry Lee (1732-1794) Founding Father introduced the resolution to adopt the Declaration of Independence in June of 1776.
I am sorry you have to deal with that, Fren. One can only pray for them, and hope they get some sense along the way.
