GIVE Act outlaws citizens' right to protest
Salt Lake City Non-Partisan Examiner ^

Posted on 03/26/2009 9:27:39 AM PDT by wk4bush2004

It is another sound good piece of legislation. H.R. 1388 has a creative title; The Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education (GIVE) Act. 321 representatives of the people voted approval for this legislation which, among many other things, strikes a blow to the rights of people to mount any protests against legislation. Listen closely, it outlaws the right to mount protests against proposed legislation.

We are heading toward a confrontation.

Whether it is violent or not depends on if you submit to becoming a slave to them or not. No tyrant in the recorded history of the world has stopped on their oun accord. They have all had to be stopped at a price. That price has always been paid in blood.

I actually found the actual text, no thanks to the original article, and it doesn’t appear to be as odious as he makes it sound. I’m not kidding myself about the potential for fascism from Obama, but we’d better be careful about crying wolf over misreading stuff like this or when the real thing comes along, we’ll have no credibility.

That is the way I see it. I can’t stop it. At the point it effects me personally, I will do what I can. I know what he [obama ] wants to do.whether he can do it or not is another story. I know what I will not live as a government slave.

Oh...I see. Well I guess we’ll be getting our notice any day now. Do you think the “I gave at the office” will work? I was in the Army. But just in case... where’s did I put that DB Cooper Handbook?

>yeah, you gotta be frustrated. You guys see what’s going on and can prevent, it but are “restricted”

You hit the nail on the head.
And who wants to bet that if I went to DC and called the Congress, the President, and even the USSC on this hideously contra-constitutional retroactive, punitive, onerous taxation (EIGHT infractions, by my count) for proposing, passing, and allowing ANYONE to be put in such unjust straights respectively, that I would not be defamed, imprisoned/fined, and/or court-martialed?

It’s a bunch of f——ing BS that I took an oath to defend the Constitution and am yet so powerless to do anything. At least that’s my current sentiment.

in this case, mandatory = servitude.  Is it even legal for them to force people to do work?  Didn't Lincoln abolish something like this?

I imagine there will be groups of citizens wearing ski masks that will confront these Stormtroopers and will literally tar and feather them.

The question I have is, which is better, roofing cement mixed with diesel or straight out of the bucket?

Real down pillows or just some cheap polyfill?

I'm told it's all in the well-known, behind-the-iron-curtain manual on how to capture and domesticate wild pigs.

Any sane person will have to note how such stories end; that is, with the subjugation and death of the pigs, or with the violent throwing off of the yoke of oppression.

Abridging Creator-granted, inalienable rights is only a temporary situation, but the ruthless politicians who make it happen don't care because they're earnestly intent on being long gone after their days at the top of the heap.

The Bawneys of the world desperately want to leave the mark of who they are as more than just a stain on the sheets or the headrests of Air Force One.

It prohibits those in the Mandatory Volunteer Program for engaging in politics, etc. It does not effect the general population.

If the "volunteer" program is mandatory, then those in it are the general population.

There is a statement (section 6104 or somwhere around there-in the original bill) that said, to the effect, that the powers that be should consider recommendations to make this volunteerism mandatory.

It's just down the road eventually. When will we learn when we give the statists an inch they take a mile.

They would like senior citizens to “volunteer” also - wonder if they would use the threat of withholding their social security if they didn’t.

The way this administration is moving, "down the road" could be 2-3 days.

We must travel in the same circles, because my sources told me about the contents of that same manual. They told me it is usually very dogged ear and drool stained.

As you noted “any sane person will have to note how such stories end”. But then we are not discussing those possessed of sanity, but of evil.
