Instead of Mein Kampf It will just be called “Hood Crib”

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

“Resistance is futile.”

[VideoPaul]

I believe this falls under the definition of “indentured servitude”. Exactly where is the civil rights crowd, massah???

Malik Zulu Shabazz, chairman of the New Black Panther Party for Self-Defense (NBPP):
"We are happy today to be standing side by side with the Nation of Islam. We believe, like the Nation of Islam and the Honorable Elijah Muhammad believe, in a nation of our own. We believe in a Black first philosophy and a Black Liberation Theology. We don’t worry about the criticism. We love all of those who labored in the Panther Party from the ’60s. Many are with us today."

Re: Millions More Movement rally, Oct 15, 2005:

Unity generates power to change reality
By the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan

"The time has never been more ripe for a strategic relationship between the Black, Brown, Native American and the poor of this nation and the world."

"We need a Ministry of Defense. Our young men are born soldiers, but they are in the wrong war. They are fighting a war in the streets of America against each other, or they are fighting an unjust war overseas in Afghanistan and Iraq. We need to bring our boys home and put them into the Ministry of Defense, so we can defend our communities, rather than destroy our communities.

We need a Ministry of Art and Culture. We applaud the hip hop community, the leaders of young people all over the world, but I want the young generation of artists to know there is a bigger purpose for art and culture than popping our fingers and shaking our backsides. Mao Tse Tung, throughout his long march to conquer China, had a billion people whose lives he had to transform. Many of them were victims of opium, drugs and prostitution, like we are. But Mao Tse Tung went to the cultural community and they accepted his idea. Then, through song, dance, poetry, drama, documentaries, movies and books, the idea of Mao Tse Tung became the idea of a billion people. China became a world power on the base of culture and the artistic community. If we had a Ministry of Art and Culture in every city, [we'd] create this movement [in the U.S.], we could say to our young people, “What is the idea of the Time and are you reflecting that idea in your songs, dance and music?

We need a Ministry of Trade and Commerce. Do you think that a Millions More Movement should not be involved in the development of Africa, the Caribbean and Central America? ... we need a Ministry of Trade and Commerce that can link the struggle here with Africa and the Caribbean, Central and South America.

"forced volunteering"

Are you nuts?

[little jeremiah]

I clicked and you have to search, is that what you meant to post?

And since I am dumm and cannot understand legalese or the high falutin’ language laws are written in, if you want to post what you are getting at, I’d appreciate it!

[BuckeyeTexan]

No. I will not be forced to volunteer for Obama.

I WILL DEFEND MYSELF AND MY FAMILY if it becomes necessary.

[piytar]

Mandatory work for no pay is slavery. If passed, it could be our Archduke Moment.

DISSENT IS PATRIOTISM

[StonyMan451]

Where in the bill does it require individuals to give 3 years of service? I couldn’t find it.

[tomkat]

Maybe, but if all of us take a couple of the bastards out on the way down we can make a sizable dent in the infestation . . .

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

Try here: HR 1388

[little jeremiah]

Even if the people who get free money for all that crap have to “volunteer” for gov programs, said programs will all be leftist crap, and will cost MORE taxpayer money, and the programs will continue to undermine all that is (was) good about our country.

Rip the entire thing out by the root, or it will continue to produce the bitter fruit we are seeing right now. More leftist crap, more blind, deaf and dumb leftist sheep who are utterly dependent on Big Brother for every crumb.

[An Old Man]

I was thinking more along the lines of "The sayings of Chairman Mao President Barack"

The program talks about earning "educational awards" via this service. What I suspect is the plan:

(1) Establish this "national service" as a way to get federal student aid for college;

(2) Soon to be followed by a reduction/elimination of other forms of federal student aid;

(3) Thus mandating a successful term of service as a condition for the non-wealthy getting through college. This term of service will take place under conditions where political orientation will be closely examined, indoctrination will be thorough, and the work will be for the benefit of Leftist organization.

I predict that this will be seen as a way to ensure that only the politically-correct will have access to professional careers.

[little jeremiah]

Problem is it would take me all today, tomorrow and the next day (at least) to read it, and I still would not understand one word.

I one high school dropout and legal technical language causes instant brainfreeze. Sad but true and I’m too old to learn.
