Spot on.
You should know that your sign might cause you grief if, God forbid, you ever have to defend yourself or your home.
There was an intruder shooting in Rochester NH where the shhot was totally good, but he had to spend almost a year and $50K convincing the DA that all the “Protected by S+W” and “Gun Control is two shots center mass” signs and bumper stickers didn’t constitute prior intent.
Appreciate your concern, but I live in FL. We have a rather good "Castle doctrine."

But homosexuality, practiced by either sex, is not the *sole* sin described as unfitting, as the rest of the chapter proves.
Sinners descend into all kinds of sins because of the lusts of their hearts (whether a man for a woman, woman for a man, anyone for an object). As sinners, we all do things that are not fitting before God.
Therefore, Paul is not solely describing the “descent into homosexual depravity”, as the rest of the chapter demonstrates.
Romans 1 is not about all sins, not just homosexuality.
I’m not surprised. But if one takes a stand on something, then one had better be ready to go all the way with it, even to that “last full measure of devotion.”
Ut veniant omnes!
Correction: Romans 1 is about all sins, not just homosexuality.
It is dangerous to assume that a sinful attitude or thought process is confined solely to practitioners of a sin which we are not tempted to engage in.
First, the illegal aliens will come to my house, using the CASA database.
Next, they will mow my lawn.
Finally, I will kick their asses!
Mwu-hu-hu-ha-ha-ha-haaaaaa!
Greg seems very unhappy with these people; I take him at his word.
Placemark.
In twenty years of political activism I’ve received a few death threats. A couple of them were from homosexuals.
I know someone who has been very active in supporting traditional aka real marriage, he got numerous death threads, his business was ruined, his cars sabotaged, etc.

How right you are. It's now a nostalgic folk festival for the sheeple.
And most people miss the largest local government institution and the most dangerous since it is the furthest to the left and has direct access to the next generation of voters...the public schools.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Wow! I agree with every word in your post!!!!
This cultural war will be LOST LOST LOST unless we get our nation’s kids out of the government socialist, collectivist-run, GODLESS, schools!!!!!! These moral pits of depravity need to be razed to the ground, their foundations dug up, and the ground salted!!!
When I read the posts to the government education threads, I want to bang my head into a pulp! It is astonishing how few conservatives “get it”!
Too many conservatives are delusional when they think that their child’s school is different. Or....They feel that if we could get rid of the Department of Education, the unions, return the Marxist schools to state control, go back to a sprinkle of prayer in the morning, teach phonics...ad nauseum!...that somehow the government schools would be fixed.
GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS CAN’T BE FIXED!!! THEY MUST BE ABOLISHED!!!
From the very beginning government schools were the political invention of the 19th century progressives. Government schools have **always** been under the control of progressives. Teacher training, textbook development, and curriculum have **always** been under the control of progressives. The march has **always** been toward complete atheism! It started with generic and lukewarm Protestantism, moved to a nod to God in the morning with a completely godless curriculum for the rest of the day, and now we have flat out and open atheism!!!
And...You are right! In most counties the atheistic government schools are the largest single employer with the largest payroll. And...NO!...We will not get help from the churches. Too many ministers are married to government teachers. Too many school employees and vendors to the schools sit in the pews!
Yes! I am jumping up and down, shouting, and having a fit!
Gays=Dodo birds of the human species.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Actually...No!
Gays recruit. They have now thoroughly infiltrated every level of our godless and collectivist run government schools.
And...Remember gays hire other gays!
“Government schools have **always** been under the control of progressives.”
AGREED...the progressives/humanists have said this in their own words...
“Education is thus a most powerful ally of Humanism, AND EVERY AMERICAN PUBLIC SCHOOL IS A SCHOOL OF HUMANISM. What can the theistic Sunday schools, meeting for an hour once a week, and teaching only a fraction of the children, do to stem the tide of a five-day program of humanistic teaching?”
“Humanism A New Religion” by Charles Francis Potter...PUBLISHED IN 1930!
Yes that is correct, “EVERY AMERICAN PUBLIC SCHOOL IS A SCHOOL OF HUMANISM”, ALL THE WAY BACK TO 1930 (AND BEFORE), well before most if not all of the posters on Freerepublic ever went to school. I think that this is part of the reason most do not see the complete harm done by the school system...they were trained by it.
The individual referenced above, Charles Francis Potter, was a signer of the “Humanist Manifesto 1933”. I would strongly recommend that everybody on Freerepublic read this document and realize what the plan has been and remains to be...the plan is to make “radical changes in religious beliefs”, that it “makes unacceptable any supernatural or cosmic guarantees of human values”, will work to transform and control institutions of learning and “religious institutions”, and to show that “profit-motivated society has shown itself to be inadequate and that a radical change in methods, controls, and motives must be instituted”. Is this the "change we can believe in"?
Are these not the very things that most of us talk about when we post back and forth to each other? Our culture has been infected by this stuff and the only answer is a return to God and His Word...
Psalms 1:1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
If a man is blessed by not taking counsel from the ungodly, then why do we place our children in the position that they must take counsel from the ungodly? Don't we want our children to be blessed?
The very first government schools ( mid-1800s to early 1900s) offered up a lukewarm and generic Protestantism. They had too just to accommodate the collectivist voting mob.
Well....We know what Christ does with the lukewarm. He spits them out of His mouth! These children simply by attending learned to be lukewarm and generic about religion. By my grandmother's day ( born 1894) the schools were GODLESS with a sprinkle of prayer in the morning.
The progressives have always been pushing the envelope. Some of my high school teachers in the mid-1960s were already “edgy”.
