I chose this handle on TOS (the You People lingo for Lucianne.com) when I joined during the shocking abuse of Elián González by the clinton administration. I felt, and still believe they were trying to render ths Constitution "null and void".

The name is a protest against the sacrifice of inocents.

About me:

I described myself best in a post to a site pest:

to: [the site pest]

Who me? I'm a hard core card carrying member of the Libertarian Party. I love the constitution, this country (not fond of the government, though), and it's hard working citizens. I hate leaches, cheats, and most politicians. I have a special black place in my heart for elitist hypocrites, and an even darker place for those who abuse authority. I believe in a strong defense, free interprise, and friendly relations with neighbors. I believe stupidity should hurt. Those who won't (as opposed to can't) work should starve. I don't do drugs, but I believe they should all be legal, in a few generations the genetic weakness associated with drug abuse will be greatly reduced. I'm not gay or bi, but I believe such behavior is a private matter between concenting ADULTS. People who molest children should be neutered as a minimum punishment. Every child should be a wanted child, I would not want to inflict a mother who would abort a child on that child. If a woman wants an abortion she should be able to get one, as part of the sterilization procedure. I favor a tax free society, but could live with an absolutely flat low tax. I don't give a d^mn about the color of someones hair, their religion, where their ancestors come from (far enough back, we're all from Africa). I do care about their honesty, their character, and their integrity.

I could go on, but enough about me...

I'm no longer a Card Carrying Libertarian.

How to handle 'Critical Mass' bicyclers, My experience at Bio 2004:

To: liberallyconservative

Oh, OK...

After moving less than half a block in 20 minutes (one block away from from Moscone), a bunch of bicyclists started riding between the cars, leader with a bull horn, shouting something about taking over the streets.

He had the horn pointed back wards so I didn't hear him coming. Durn! he got away!

However, I popped my door open in front of the third or so cyclist in the string. (I did look first to make sure he had room to stop).

He screams "You effin' clymer!!!" (OK, I cleaned it up a little, so sue me...)

I looked up smiled sweetly and said "That makes two of us..."

Totally messed them up. They had to stop and regroup. His buds split leaving him with two young "ladies" to protect him from the mean man in the car. Boo fricking hoo

I closed the door and he started to pass by and continued to berate me. When he was adjacent to the door I popped it open at him, not to hit him, but to persuade him to move along.

He darn near fell off his bike trying to dodge me.

"We're going to call 911!!!"

"Don't bother, I'll call for you" which I did. (The line was busy)

He and the two chicks decided that it was past their collective bedtimes or something and split.

Felt GOOD...

To: wagglebee

Here's the deal:

The government already has utterly unbelievable capabilities that it is not talking about. One of those capabilities is mind-reading. The public is being gradually acclimated to ultimately accept a society where (for example) you can be watched continually wherever you go, and your very thoughts read. There is an army of imposters on FreeRepublic with completely phony profiles whose job it is to post articles and start discussions that will serve to acclimate people to ultmately accept these monstrous new technologies. One of the things these people do is post article after article about gruesome sex crimes. If you read Wagglebee's remarks in this thread, it asserts that everyone eventually acts on their thoughts. Is that true? Have you ever thought about beating the crap out of someone? Did you act on it? Have you ever had inappropriate sexual thoughts? Did you act on them? (and no, I'm not talking about pedophilia.) The group wagglebee is working for needs to acclimate society to the idea of people's thoughts being read.

Remember GW's words:

"Our enemies never stop thinking of ways to harm the American People, and neither do we."

The Beast is here.

The desecration of the temple in Biblical prophecy is talking about mind-reading, and other monstrous technologies in which those in power have direct access to peoples minds, remotely.

This is NOT science fiction. It is REALITY.

On Rebuilding New Orleans:

Well, if you've been reading many of the New Orleans threads you might have seen some ideas.

For example, the one I advocate is turning New Orleans into a giant garbage tip.

Because of it's location at the mouth of the mighty Mississippi, it is ideally located to accept garbage from the entire Mississippi basin and Gulf Coast.

Fill in the entire Crescent City area with enough garbage, mine tailings, slag, and fly ash to build it up to 30 feet above sea level.

Cover it with 10 feet of dirt, incorporating underground utility grids, a few feet of topsoil, and rebuild on top of that.

Tel New Orleans would become the South's new 'Shining City on a Hill'.

Fund the entire project with fair market rate disposal fees.

Has the Biblical Goliath Been Found? ^

On News/Activism ^ 11/10/2005 7:07:40 AM PST · 54 of 114 ^

Which brings me to one of my hobby horses:

We already agree that our calendar is wrong, off by anywhere from 2 to 16 years, depending on who's doing the reckoning, and further in error because of the absence of a year zero.

The more fundamental point is that God did not intend us to mark His years by the birth of Jesus.

If He had intended this we would have a Biblical fixing of the date.

Further, the day of Jesus' birth is unremarkable as all men are born.

However, very few return from the dead, that event is remarkable, and it is the defining moment of Christianity, the very moment of proof that his sacrifice was not in vain. And the Bible gives a precise reference for when this happened!

Clearly this was the date the calender was supposed to start!

For extra points, this makes our calender off by anywhere from 17 to 30 years. That makes this something like Holy Year 1988 to Holy Year 1975, giving us anywhere from 12 to 25 years to get our affairs in order before the real end of the millennium...

On Islam:

Real Prophets climb mountains to be closer to God.
They don't crawl into caves to listen to the hissings of The Serpent.

On Abortion:

Middle ground? Half aborted, half alive?

To: Jim Robinson

Pretty much. Most of us are somewhere in the squishy middle.

We're all pretty certain that a baby is a human person, pretty sure that a swimming sperm cell and an unfertilized egg are not a human person.

What we don't know is when the product of Mr. Sperm and Ms. Egg's first date becomes a person. Is a single fertilized egg floating in the uterus a human person? Does it become a person when it survives it's first cell division? Does it become a person when it sticks to the uterine wall? (add a zillion small steps here) When it takes it's first breath?

I know the dividing line is in there somewhere!

I'm of the opinion that a body becomes a person when it picks up (is picked up by?) a soul.

That is a religious distinction, and is therefore beyond the purview of the Federal Government.

If I were in charge, what would I do? I suppose a "good" (whatever that means!) compromise would be to recognize that a woman who is willing to murder a potential baby probably isn't going to be all that great a mother. You can have an abortion at any time during a pregnancy, BUT you must be permanently sterilized as part of the procedure.

It puts the decision in a clearer perspective...

On the Spanish Inquisition:

After 700 years of islamic domination, the only ruling model the Spaniards had any real experience with was sharia law, with massive day to day brutality against any minor transgression being regarded as normal, proper and in obedience to their pig god’s law.

The Spanish Inquisition was built on the ashes and rubble of islam. It couldn’t help but absorb some of the preceding practices.

The tortures that islam enthusiastically embraced as wholesome family fun, and indeed, still embrace at places like Chop-Chop Plaza in Rhyadh, that the Inquisition briefly held have since been viewed as a horrible anomaly in Christian history.

We are ashamed of what Christians did after 700 years of oppression.

møøslimbs are not only proud of sharia law, but think it would be simply wonderful, if they could impose it on the whole world.

Welcome to FR. Hope you’ll stick around beyond this story. The best thing about this forum is the huge web of on-the-ground reporters like you, providing information that hasn’t been sanitized by the mainstream media outlets. Debates can get a little rough-and-tumble around here, but don’t let it scare you off.

More on islam:

To: Mad_Tom_Rackham

Islam’s greatest triumph against the West wasn’t the destruction of the World Trade Center.

It was learning how to harness our vulnerability to accusations of racism and prejudice in such a way that we turn a blind eye to even the most profound and egregious of human contagion...The unchecked spread of a “faith” that spreads like a virus: It penetrates a healthy population and turns it upon itself. A doctrine of absolutes, tolerating no rivals or peers, there is no lie too great, no act so vile, no victim too innocent to stand in its way.

These zealots will be our undoing. Not because they are armed with Allah’s might, or because they are imbued with any virtue, but rather because all they require to prevail is that good men stand by and do nothing to stop them.

On the difference between Obama and Hillary!™:

To: Domandred; F15Eagle

Obama is preferable because his opponent is coming to the end of a thirty-year plan to seize power and rule with an iron fist. There are literally thousands of regulators-in-waiting and judges-in-waiting, hand picked by Her Thighness, ready to overturn 220 years of Constitutional government and rule like Stalinists.

I have no illusions about Senator Obama - his ideas are every bit as bad as hers.

But he is not at the head of a revolutionary long-term project with international connections and thousands of ready-to-go commissars. She is.

If Obama is elected, powerful countervailing forces will oppose him and his own inexperience and probable incompetence will limit the damage. The President, alone, is not a dictator.

Hillary’s administration-in-waiting is a clear and present danger to the republic. Young Senator Obama, IMO, is not.

On Modern Science and technology:

This scientist has failed to recognize that liberals
only want symbolic solutions to metaphorical problems,
not real solutions to real problems.

The liberals appreciate the advance notice, however,
so that they can outlaw his technology.

Now, if his tech had exacerbated real problems,
while failing to be a symbolic solution to
metaphorical problems, that would be OK, as
long as there were non-liberal scapegoats to blame.
