Can anyone tell me how she was tagged as the person, if she was using a pseudonym when she posted it?

The reason that the pro-gay movement is getting away with this stuff is the following imo. As a consequence of parents not making sure that their children are being taught how the Constitution works, neither pro-gay activists, but also evidently many patriots, do not understand that the states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect so-called gay rights.

In fact, as mentioned in related threads, the Supreme Court had decided against Virginia Minor's argument in Minor v. Happersett that her citizenship automatically gave her the right to vote because she thought that the Equal Protections Clause of Section 1 of the 14th Amendment meant that her state could not prohibit her right to sufferage because she was a woman.

The reason that the Court decided against Minor is because it clarified that the Equal Protections Clause did not add any new protections to the Constitution, that it just strengthened existing protections.

“3. The right of suffrage was not necessarily one of the privileges or immunities of citizenship before the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment, and that amendment does not add to these privileges and immunities. It simply furnishes additional guaranty for the protection of such as the citizen already had (emphasis added).” —Minor v. Happersett, 1874.

What the Equal Protection Clause does, imo, is to prohibit the states from making excuses to discriminate against groups within a group, such as prohibiting Irish Catholic men from voting for example.

Otherwise the states are free to make laws which discriminate on the basis of anything not expressly protected by the Constitution, as long as such laws don't unreasonably discriminate against anything which is expressly protected.

Also note that Minor's fight was eventually rewarded when the states later ratified the 19th Amendment to the Constitution which effectivelly gave women the right to vote.

So which is the greater crime, abusing government power to discriminate against rights which are expressly protected by the Constitution, or not bothering to read what Constitution says in the first place?

Eugene, Springfield and the Portland area are filled with the vilest of leftist scum.

The rural areas are entirely different. SW OR has become more liberal due to leftist scum from CA moving here and some hippies who already lived here; but even some of the hippies are conservative.

It’s like black and white. The rural parts of OR are getting extremely fed up being ruled by a few cities. There is a seccession movement make some noise, Southern OR and some northern counties of CA - the State of Jefferson. I’m all for it.

Central west — liberal around Eugene

Central east — conservative all over.

The only blue areas basically are Portland, Eugene and Corvallis. The rest is all red.

Well, didn’t the Organizer in Chief proclaim, “If they bring a knife, We bring a gun?” Lots of community organizing going on right now. Expect it to get worse as they start having small victories.

Undoubtedly her online footprints are not properly placed as to confuse the enemy. Always field dress your online cigarettes, and never overlook an opportunity to keep your big mouth shut.

Chin up Chauncy!

Queers: "We are the 3.5%."

A very. very small majority. Pay no attention to them. Let them rant, let them rave. Remember, there are many suppliers.

Of course 1.9% (NOT 3.5%) of a population can't wield this much power. Homo's are wielded by the entire liberal Left because they know that it's the most disgusting bludgeon against conservatives and normal people.

They're like the horse's head put under the bed covers.

Yikes! I’m glad you said those colors were reversed.

Yes, Portland and the college towns are liberal. I didn’t realize so much of the coast was too. Probably people moving up here from CA.

Get a list of suppliers and threaten to boycott their products in the event they fail to supply the store. Then e-mail bomb them with similar. Let the suppliers realize there are a lot more of us than the homonazis.

The fags trying to ruin Chick-fil-A had it backfire big time, the chain has now passed KFC as the nation’s top fast food chicken chain.
