Extreme Court is more like it, or Supremacy (sodomite supremacy) Court.

“God night people. Those of you ready to overthrow, be careful. They have very big weapons. Let me know when the revolution begins.”

“God night people.” Hmm - Freudian slip there, Mr. agnostic?

Typical libertine / libertarian coward, both morally and socially. You won’t ever be the first to pick up a weapon and use it - and I’ll wager not even to defend your own - when the unjust “employers” finally come for you!

I have the perfect response to your libertarian inspired INDIFFERENCE ...

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. — Martin Niemöller (1892–1984)

BTW, sir ... Hate is not the opposite of love, but rather it is indifference. You epitomize that indifference, even while you attempt to hide its putrid rot behind legal sophistry.

I strongly encourage you to file your returns and balance your tax obligations. You’re fighting an indifferent machine that will eat you alive.

The real battle front is unfortunately limited to the voting booth. So get the tax monkey off your back and instead work the votes.

He is not blind - but rather he is indifferent. He is a moral relativist ... That is what lies at the core of libertarian thinking. They are, in reality, liberals, but without the intellectual honesty to admit such fact.

Libertarians admit no supremacy of the Natural Law, even though all just positive law derives from the moral truths revealed in the Natural Law.

“Morphing libertarian” (interesting phraseology) is no different than those five tyrannical black-robbed oligarchs of the SCOTUS ... Nor does he differ much from the other four, whose pathetically weak dissents did not even consider the Natural Law, as once espoused by Justice Blackstone (albeit, Justice Thomas did use a reference to the arguments of Locke and Rutherford).

Libertarians are fond to throw out the “I’ll follow after you” meme, whenever challenged by those who are ready to engage ... and I will wager they will have a convenient reason to excuse themselves when the moment of truth finally does arrive (”I’m sick and old”) - It always comes down to the “Three Percent” ... Because it requires the FORCE OF MORAL CONVICTION to motivate a force of arms.

Those w/o moral convictions (You must follow “the law”) will always have an excuse not to wage battle against evil. So, they become the silent partners of evil ... Complacency in the face of evil is no virtue, as much as unjust immoral law is no law!

Oh, now the Extreme Court is the legislative branch of government? The court ruled a majority *opinion* (a worthless opinion, at that). It didn’t pass legislation. Why should anyone be compelled to obey an opinion? It must depend upon whose agenda is being served. Justice? In the New America(America In Name Only)? Think again.

“”Yeah that one sure sucks, but the 16th Amendment is the mother of all mistakes. It is the intravenous food supply for the FedGov beast and the only way it can sustain itself.””

Your wording is spot on. Genius.

Because THOSE employers are “self employed” - i.e.: they are their “employees” - and they are being told what to do by a non-employer - the government.

The rights of the business owner - the employer in your argument - on how to conduct their business, is being stripped by a national (central) NOT FEDERAL government ...

A government that is supposed to work FOR THE PEOPLE AND THE STATES WHO CREATED IT ... not for a minority of reprobate miscreants who have infiltrated and corrupted its original intent, but rather for the expressed will of the majority ...

A majority of CITIZENS, in a majority of INDEPENDENT SOVEREIGN STATES, who VOTED - by legitimate referendum - and whose STATE LEGISLATURES past amendments to their STATE CONSTITUTIONS, so to define marriage as being what it always has been in human societies - the union of man and woman.

My answer is perfectly logical to your “gross” indifference to what is being done to our republic. You hide behind a pretense that does not apply.

The legislatures of the several sovereign STATES voted - on behalf of their citizens - to amend the several State Constitutions, so to affect the will of the majority of citizens whom they represent. In other divers cases there were legal and binding referendums petitioned by the citizens and placed on legitimate ballots for a vote by the same.

You forget that the federal government is a CREATURE OF THE STATES - not the other way around. WE employ them, they do not employ us! In that light, the USSC VIOLATED the rights of its employer - the people of the United States of America, and, by judicial fiat, usurped the express will of the people on an issue of how their culture and society shall be MORALLY constructed.

The USSC willfully, arrogantly and unjustly abrogated the expressed will (laws) of the majority of the several States, and the citizens thereof, on an issue over which they have NO LEGAL JURISDICTION.

This action WILL result in civil war.

Good phrase! I'll be borrowing that. Thank You.

Gee, I’m shaking in my boots ...

1.) Not likely my admission on a public forum will bring much of anything, since I am using a pseudonym and not my actual name.

2.) If they come for me, I shall give them more compelling a reason than my supposed “tax evasion.”

Unfortunately, I no longer trust in nor believe the ballot box a solution - we are far beyond that now ...

Ballot Box - USSC just blew that out of the water.

Soap Box - Preaching to the choir - but the USSC is blind deaf and dumb.

So, what remains is the “cartridge box.”

We have an immoral and unjust central government - not by any measure can it still be called “federal” - whose actions are, almost without exception, bent on advancing the cause of evil.

It is a moral duty to resit such a government - by any and all means - up to and including by force of arms.

It is not about subversion - it is rather about the preservation of this Constitutional Representative Republic.

We’re not beyond the ballot box.

Don’t mistake your frustrations with lawlessness.

If you’re serious about the Constitution, work the 1st Amendment hard.

The Marxist approach was to stamp out religion and even there Stalin had to back off a bit to unify his nation to fight the Nazis in WW2.

Communists still allowed ‘show’ churches in their societies under government supervision.

In “Mein Kampf” Hitler expressed his disdain for religion, but admitted it couldn’t be stamped out. The Nazis developed a “Reichs Church” to make religion subservient to the state.

The elitists of today want individuals who won’t change their beliefs suppressed but I also think they want to allow churches that conform to their standards of liberality about sexuality (gay marriage etc.) and other beliefs.

Former British PM Tony Blair, who launched the move to legalize gay marriage in his country, professed to be a Catholic and devoted his life to matters of ‘faith’ when he left office getting religion to conform to ‘climate change’ ideology and so on.

In this period, Pope Benedict resigned and we got Pope Francis as a replacement. I have no final answers on that, just a questioning mind.

The Nazis had a saying, "First the Saturday People, then the Sunday People."
