On July 4, 2014, I was a guest speaker at the Racial Reconciliation and Healing event hosted by Rev. James David Manning of ATLAH Ministries held at Gettysburg Battlefield, in Gettysburg, PA. In the course of my speech, which I gave from the same place President Abraham Lincoln gave his Gettysburg Address, I quoted Booker T. Washington saying: “We went into slavery a piece of property; we came out American citizens. We went into slavery pagans; we came out Christians. We went into slavery without a language; we came out speaking the proud Anglo-Saxon tongue. We went into slavery with...

The following was written for July 5, 2015, “Our Daily Bread” by Anne Cetas. ********************** When Jesus lived on this earth, He invited people to come to Him, and He still does today (John 6:35). But what do He and His Father in heaven have that we need? Salvation. Jesus is the only way to have forgiveness of sin and the promise of heaven. “Whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:15). Purpose. We are to give all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength to following Jesus. “Whoever desires to come after Me, let...

My Fellow Americans, Tomorrow is July 4th, commonly known as Independence Day here in America. Unfortunately, to those on the left, it has become nothing more than a reflection of our nation's version of Original Sin. For the Left, Two Hundred and Thirty Nine years ago tomorrow we White Christian Heterosexual Males launched an oppressive campaign on minorities, every minority; Black, Hispanic, Asian, Jew, Muslim, Gay, Lesbian, Transgender, Atheist, Brown Eyed, Lisp Speaking, Extra Toed freak to come out of a womb. "WE" have done nothing to create a better life for these people. 600,000 of "US" didn't die for...

I was raised to believe that you always told the truth, even when it wasn’t popular. In fact I was taught to tell the truth especially when it wasn’t popular. But the rats at NBC would rather kiss the rings of Obama and Sharpton who are both pernicious liars, and banish Trump. NBC should sanction itself for lying about George Zimmerman and repeatedly falsifying the news.

Waco is leaking lies again. Detective Manuel Chavez has admitted to a defense attorney that he perjured himself when he presented a fill in the name criminal complaint to Justice of the Peace Walter H. “Pete” Peterson on May 18. Chavez presented the complaint which began, “Before me, the undersigned authority, personally appeared the affiant herein, a peace officer under the laws of Texas, who being duly sworn, on path made the following statements and accusations: “My name is Manuel Chavez and I am commissioned as a peace officer with the City of Waco by The Stale of Texas. I...

I awoke with a start at the loud noise. I thought it might be early revilers when I realized it was just my tenants stomping their displeasure at the lack of hot water. I had hoped to be able to sleep later on my day off from my rotating shift at the Rite-Aid medical clinic. As my mind began to clear I realized today was the Fourth of July. In my youth it was known as Independence Day. Since it was removed from the list of federal holidays for its racist past not many people find reasons to celebrate. Even...

Conservative Russians Give Moral Lesson to Facebook’s Homosexual Propaganda By Julio Severo In celebration of the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling favoring homosexual “marriage” last week, Facebook launched an app called “Let’s Celebrate Pride,” which allowed users to overlay an image of the homosexual rainbow over their profile picture. Facebook expected many millions of its users to celebrate, but from its 1.44 billion users, just 26 million did — less than 2 per cent. The fact is, the absolute majority of Facebook users did not want to get involved in the Facebook’s homosexual propaganda. Compounding the failure, there was an...

Houston – Lawyers who represent the manager of a neighboring restaurant next door to Twin Peaks say an attorney for a defendant in a shootout on May 17 is threatening contempt and arrest if their clinet does not comply with a request for surveillance video. Labeling a subpoena for the surveillance video from the cameras of Don Carlos Mexican Restaurant a “fishing expedition,” lawyers for the restaurant’s management termed “threatening…with orders of contempt and arrest” a request by a Dallas attorney in advance of an examining trial set for August 10 in Precinct 1 Justice Court by Judge Pete Peterson....

I once again call upon the collective genius of all the FReeper minds, this time to help me solve a computer issue. I recently had no choice but to upgrade from the PC I've been using since -- wait for it -- 2000 (or thereabouts). Why did I wait so long? Well, because I've tweaked and customized it over the years to do exactly what I want it to do. But I had to face the reality that it's too slow to do things properly anymore, and more and more online stuff just doesn't work on the old XP machine....

January 22, 2013, I wrote the following Daily Rant. It was titled “Weapons of Choice.” I repost it today and ask you — what has changed? Doctors and government continue to poison our young people and children and when they react to the side effects of their psychotropic drugs they go to gun-free zones and commit amongst other things mass murder. For those who missed this piece the first time here it is again and for those who have read it here’s a refresher read. It has been updated. I remember my friends and I playing army and cowboys and...

Dallas Attorney Clint Broden is still throwing rocks at what he has started to call Waco’s “Publicity Machine.” In a 30 page emergency petition filed this morning with the Court of Appeals for the Tenth District of Texas, Broden wrote: “Whether real or perceived, there is a noxious odor surrounding the investigation by the Waco Police and the McLennan County District Attorney’s Office with regard to the “Twin Peaks Shooting” and the wholesale arrest of 177 motorcyclists based on identical, “fill-in-the-name” criminal complaints. “Nevertheless, as Justice Brandeis said: ‘Publicity is justly commended as a remedy for social and industrial diseases....

I often wear a suit or sport coat, which means that I have a lapel on which to wear a lapel pin. As an American, I often wear an American flag pin, but I do frequently wear others… sometimes a “Celebrate Freedom” pin from a veterans group, sometimes a “little feet” pin from a pro-life group, sometimes a campaign button for whoever I’m supporting that election season. In addition, I sometimes wear a pin celebrating my ethnicity. I’m Italian, Irish, Scotch-Irish, Austrian, and German. I happen to identify mostly with the Italian and Irish aspects of my heritage, so it’s...
