To the Supreme Court: ‘Mother, May I’?
Canada Free Press ^ | 06/26/15 | David Hunter

The government and the Court should stay out of our bedrooms, our churches and especially our bakeries

Equal protection under the law does not equate to equal results in American society. Liberal progressives have co-opted and perverted the intentions of the Founding Fathers in order to promote their divisive anti-American agenda: pitting one group against another; in the case of the marriage issue, the gay community against conservative Christians.

The concept of marriage between one woman and one man has informed societies throughout history for thousands of years. Despite its religious connotations and inherently stabilizing influence on society, its primary purpose has been to legitimize and protect the economic interests of otherwise vulnerable children, something gay unions do not biologically produce. As America is a Judeo-Christian country, it falls easily in line with this sensible tradition. Furthermore, as the vast majority of people are heterosexual, it follows that the traditional definition of marriage remain the prevailing one—up and until there is a groundswell of local support by the majority from the state level that this standard be changed. This is still America—power to shape society and freedom to “pursue Happiness”—are supposed to reside with “we the people” to determine her course, not a centralized, overstepping, facelessly bureaucratic, progressive federal government. Indeed, a belligerently vocal minority that uses the law and the levers of big government as a weapon to impose its specialized agenda upon the larger group is as repressive as any overbearing majority. That, unfortunately, is what is happening here.

SCOTUScare and AnythingMarriage prove that the following are irrelevant:

The People
The Legislative Branch
The States
The Constitution
Democracy
A Republican form of government

No foolin’. I’m quite done. There is not even a façade left. The rulers are in charge, and we are slaves.

I’ll pick my time and method.

We need to organize (sort of like a union) working people (business owners, etc.) that are sick of funding this BS. We need to bail out. Let the system do it without the backbone. I am tired of helping to fund this garbage.

We need to boycott. We need to take days away from pulling the rope while others sit on their behinds all day and receive freebies. We need to make it clear that we’re not going to take it anymore.

The media has tainted the “tea party” brand. The next group could be called “tax break” or something else. I don’t know.

Where do we start? I don’t have that answer. All I know is that I am sick of this BS.

Go Galt.

There are so few people who are actually productive anymore.

If we just stopped, the system would crash.

Be a sponge. Make it happen FASTER.

I am with you ...

Mr. President,

Where do I sign up for all this free stuff? I am tired of having to pay for my cell phone, health insurance, food, housing, education, utilities, child care, clothing, etc.

I am tired of being stressed out paying my bills and paying taxes so that others, including illegals, can get free stuff while they sit on their asses all day. Please, Mr. President, where do I sign up?

Thank you,

boycott
