Mock on, mock on, Voltaire, Rousseau;

Mock on, mock on; 'tis all in vain!

You throw the sand against the wind,

And the wind blows it back again.

And every sand becomes a gem

Reflected in the beams divine;

Blown back they blind the mocking eye,

But still in Israel's paths they shine.

The Atoms of Democritus

And Newton's Particles of Light

Are sands upon the Red Sea shore,

Where Israel's tents do shine so bright. - William Blake

Liberals will do well to remember that though hand join in hand the wicked will not go unpunished (Proverbs 16:25).

Leave the country? Ha! I’m too much looking forward to the day I get the satisfaction of feeling beneath my fingernails the warm blood of the scumbags who turned my country into such a deviant sewer!

No, we’re just going to join all of the Libs who bugged out for Canada after George W. Bush was re-elected. /s

Nice poem. I think, though, that I’m sticking around. If I set myself on fire, it’ll probably be on the Fourth of July, with illegal fireworks because what the hell, everything else I’m about is being made illegal anyway.

We might start by seceding from Huffington. If conservatives can’t even manage that simple thing. then...

No, but there will be a cultural backlash that is far bigger than Roe V Wade.
Especially when you see things like;
* churches shut down the way bakeries were, for not serving homosexuals
* Christian counseling services barred from helping kids with same sex attraction after molestation and religious people who want to remain faithful to partners despite homosexual attraction
* religious schools losing non-profit status because they teach traditional marriage, from pre-school to college
* religious freedom protection acts in states challenged, so that even states that let you decline to make a cake or banner contrary to your personal views or faith, that right of association is lost
* infiltration of social groups to look for any hint of dissent, and shutting them down in some jurisdictions

After months of hearing from conservatives and fundamentalists about how they were going to secede, leave the country, or burn themselves in effigy over same-sex marriage

Oh? Hadn't heard any of that.

Huffington Post isn't making things up, is it?

"Things are about to get weird."

About to get weird? This is just a stair step into the pit of the morally decadent lunacy that is the leftist agenda of decline and destruction. "Weird" has been with us since the 60's, and has greased the slide into the morass of madness, as we obviously can see now. Is there time to somehow put on the brakes before we hit bottom? I wonder.

Not a Republican and NOT going anywhere. The coming implosion will be too entertaining to miss.

I fear for my Republic! I fear that we are going the way of ALL the other great Civilizations of the past, the Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Incas, Maya, just to name a few. They too came apart from the inside out & were taken over by a greater outside force/s. When do our so called leaders start declaring themselves above the law, their protection security staff will start wearing purple so we will know who their are, & we cal tell them apart from the rest of the so called internal security forces. We already have to pay tribute at least once a year to them who live apart from us peasants. And let us NOT forget what is taken from us when we purchase anything that we need for our daily lives.

Then we grew up learning that our causes would be heard in the fair & UNbiased courts, & that the so called judges would listen to both sides & also a jury of our peers our listen in and make their decisions heard before all. But the “Will of the People” was the most important & the last word on any subject. But now all it takes is 1 black robed priest [term from the days of old when they were the judges for the elite] to tell us on how the king/s & emperors want us to live.

The Country that I swore an oath to protect from all enemies both forgin & domestic NO longer stands! And it is every person for themselves [or with their family] It is ok to rape, rob, burn, or destroy anything you want all in the name of something, anything you want. As long as you can say that you were oppressed in some way.

So now I am calling for the implementation of Paragraph 2 of the Declaration of Independence;

“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.—That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, —That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People 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. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. 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.—Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States”

And that we hang every person who has helped cause these problems! Because tempers are short & memories are long. There will be NO appeal or reprieve, or pardon or parole, the judgment will be final! The ship of state is about to be righted & probably be the Veterans who will be the ones who right it, because we can NO longer trust those who make the laws or enforce them!

Will I be branded a traitor to the current regime? I know I will be. Will I be ridiculed, tormented, laughed at, mocked, more than likely. But to those of you who held make this mess of our country, I damn you ALL to the lowest reaches of the ancient Greek hells!

There will be a day of reckoning & you are not gonna like what you are going to get, whether in this life or the next! This I swear, before All Mighty GOD in Heaven.

Who said this?

"I love the Union and the Constitution, but I would rather leave the Union with the Constitution than remain in the Union without it."

IIRC, Louisiana recently considered dropping formal recognition/licensing/sanctioning of “marriage” entirely. Might more states consider & follow thru, considering the dilution of the purpose for incentivizing marriage for the purpose of facilitating procreation by providing legal benefits for those committed to supporting their offspring? The institution existed for a reason; if just anyone can enter therein even without any chance whatsoever of the state benefiting from the union (in the form of new taxpayers), then why would states continue to recognize & promote it?

I feel all dirty when leftists project their insanity upon me. Do they really wish to start something that they are ill prepared to face?

Roberts said that the SC had no power to make law one day after he did that very thing with Obamacare.

Not going anywhere. However, I am not contributing one more cent to my enslavement. They can go find some other productive sucker to fund their insanity.
