They are to be respected, even if i cannot affirm all their theology, and overall they increasing serve as a contrast between the hedonism of a post-Christian country and Christian morality.

What a bitch. Forcing timed served on them. from the article

A friend paid the fine for one of the men so that he could care for an ailing son, the newspaper said. The other eight men reported to jail Monday night.

The Kentucky Court of Appeals in June denied the defendants’ appeal of their misdemeanor convictions for failing to follow a state law that requires the safety triangles on slow-moving vehicles.
********************
The men have appealed to the state Supreme Court.

Bad inbreeding problem with the Amish. These guys all look like third cousins.

If you call stating known facts as badmouthing or mocking Rick Perry you must be one of the Fred Thompson clan. They also said derisive things about people who stated the facts in that campaign. And those people were just plain vicious. They never won anyone over by expounding the virtues of Thompson. Perhaps because there were none.
Rather than using the Left’s way 9of arguing,( hostility and name calling) people would learn they will catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.

Not directed to any one person:

Of course. “Freedom for Me, but not for Thee” anyone?

To these individuals submitting to man made images is equivalent to those of us who prefer not to be “marked” by such items as Real ID.

But it is obviously different because they “look funny”.

I don’t know what anyone on TMM looks like sitting behind their computers typing away their sarcastic little remarks. What I do know is that by allowing this “creeping crud” of Legislative oversight - we all loose a little bit of what this Nation once stood for.

Let KY bully these individuals and perhaps the next choice might be someone of a different skin tone, gender or religious choice to be cut from the “herd”.

“We” complain about the erosion and hope to “roll back decades of Governmental Largesse”

I wonder if members here truly see the obvious schism that is being forced (as truly as one would use a wedge to divide stubborn wood stumps) between Conservatives is blossoming before our very eyes.

I suppose I have a different view of Freedom and Liberty. Until we stand together we shall surly fall alone.


“Free Republic is the premier online gathering place for independent, grass-roots conservatism on the web. We’re working to roll back decades of governmental largesse, to root out political fraud and corruption, and to champion causes which further conservatism in America.”

This is what is coming, and not long ago the gov spent a lot of time and $ to get a man thru a sting operation who was selling unpasteurized milk to customers who wanted it.

But real evil fosters the growth of gov. Those who are not sufficiently controlled from within, by God and a sound conscience, must sooner or later be controlled from without, necessitating the growth of civil government.Robert Winthrop (May 12, 1809 – November 16, 1894), and Speaker of the House from 1838 to 1840, and later president of the Massachusetts Bible Society, explained that, “Men, in a word, must necessarily be controlled, either by a power within them, or by a power without them; either by the Word of God, or by the strong arm of man; either by the Bible or the bayonet. http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/CauseEffect.html

The work of the evangelical church is to effect God-control, so men need not be gun controlled.

But who governs the government but the votes of the people, and if their judgment is corrupt then democracy becomes a tool for evil, and it will punish good and reward evil, contrary to its charter. (1Pt. 2:13,14)

I’ll bet they are perfectly average height.... compared to men of the 1800’s.

Bingo. Their world hasn't changed much since the 1800s. Ours certainly has.
