Screaming? censorship?

The traditional God-centered Judeo-Christian family unit is the foundation and building block of our Republic. FR stands for God, family, country and supports the founding principles to the hilt. Always has, always will. We’re not going to change. Those who believe in or are willing to surrender to some other way of life are certainly welcome to post elsewhere. I don’t try to stop them.

There will be no surrender on FR.

The day the Republicans pulls the defense of life and family from the party platform will mark it’s doom. Might as well pull support for liberty at the same time.

Our unalienable rights to life, Family, Liberty are God-given and are not open to debate, negotiation, compromise or surrender!

Give me liberty or give me death! (it’s not just slogan)

That’s just the way it is.

The correct answer is for every business and govt and private citizen that can see the writing on the wall is to start weeding out these pro or ‘apathetic’ types and concentrate our resources.

Plenty of conservatives to employ, do biz with and such.

What is the next fight the GOPE will surrender on?

Arresting preachers for their sermons?

“We can’t win this battle, just get in that boxcar”

A federal tyrant overturning a state constitution is not “politics” it is tyranny.

The evil side understand that “our side” will surrender eventually. Because the GOPe always has.

Mandatory Sodomy in Schools...

I am sure there will a hue and cry, but we all know the GOPe will surrender eventually.

It doesn’t matter what the issue, the GOPe fools will bow down to evil.

Have you been following the events in Houston and Idaho? They are going after church pastors for their speeches or for not marrying gays. Should we surrender our first amendment rights too?

Once you surrender to the homo-Nazi movement we will have zero rights left. It will be very quickly followed by shutting down conservative and Christian radio, TV and websites that do not toe the line. This has become very very obvious.

Some FReepers thought the city of Houston would back down due to the backlash, they have not as I predicted they wouldn’t.

I wrote this response to one of those posts, but it applies to much much more than gays and stuff.

..............

It hasn?t backfired on her yet. This is not over.

With the left it is never over. They never give up.

Only ?our side? walks away and says ?Well, that?s that, let?s get a snack?

Meanwhile the left slithers back and keeps fighting while we are off trying to have a normal life again.

This is what they do.

They are just like the Borg in this regard. Remember what Picard said in that film?

?I will not sacrifice the Enterprise. We?ve made too many compromises already; too many retreats. They invade our space and we fall back. They assimilate entire worlds and we fall back. Not again. The line must be drawn here! This far, no further! And *I* will make them pay for what they?ve done! ?

...........

Will we sacrifice America? We?ve made too many compromises already; too many retreats. They assimilate the cities, and we fall back. They assimilate whole states and we fall back.

Will we keep compromising? retreating? Or will we draw that line and say NO FURTHER, will we ever make them pay for what they?ve done?

.............

Because the people we call RINO?s won?t draw the line, they will continue to compromise, they will continue to retreat on issue after issue.

Boehner: Obamacare is the law of the land and it will be funded.

Scott Walker: Gay marriage is here to stay.

Jeb Bush: As President I would govern like LBJ

McConnell wants to punch us in the face, defund our candidates, undermine our candidates even if they win primaries. They?d rather see the BORG win elections than us who refuse to give the enemy what they want, eventually - just more gradually than the enemy wants it. They have no real quarrel with the Borg over the direction.

Annise Parker might be ?backing down? temporarily, but she isn?t. She is just changing her strategy not her goal, we should not breathe a sigh of relief and go on our merry way thinking the coast is clear and everything is roses now.

Maybe she isn?t a BORG. Maybe she is one of those Weeping Angels from ?Dr. Who?. Oh sure they stop moving when we shine the line on them, but as soon as we stop paying attention they are sucking our brains out.

Remember that this is not about Annise Parker, or the whole stinking city council of Houston. The people of Houston elected those NAZI?s, because they support them and they support their promises and goals. Or they don?t really care.

Look at what the people of Germany allowed in the 30?s. Look at what the whole cruel world allow to happen in the middle east for decades. Ask the children of Rotherham what happens when good men do nothing.

?Shocking and Shameful? it might be, but this is just one little footnote in the vast horrible tome of the -Isms. It is hardly any more ?shocking and shameful? than what has been taking place in this country and the whole freaking world for decades upon decades.

Millions of dead babies, molested children, mentally and physically. How many failed products of the government ?schools? are there now? Half the people in this country seem to have no idea there are such thing as right and wrong.

So-called ?churches? and ?moderates? want to negotiate and compromise with the great evil of the -Isms. Then they have to compromise down again and again until their is nothing left to surrender. A downward trend into hell.

In the 80?s when I grew up I thought there was a political party who was ?on my side?. Yes, I was a kid who saw the battle. I saw it in much more muted and simpler terms back then but I saw it. I saw a Champion of my side in Ronald Reagan.

But I haven?t seen it since. I hoped and tried to see it in others but they never had it. There were some smart ones, there were some who were great on this or that issue and even some who seemed to see it the same way I did but they were the ones who had no power and never would have. They never rose. Why?

Because the political party I thought aligned with me and my ideals was not. There aren?t any. They are as bought and sold as the Democrats, and they are even less idealistic. Some of them are Democrats with an R by their name, and others are the compromisers and surrenderers.

?Our side? hasn?t hardly begun to really identify the enemy, not really started to organize, and we are a long way from a real fight. But more and more, sure still too few -far too few- are recognizing that the Republican Party isn?t going to save us, and often it?s not really even on our side at all.

We have just began to wake up. Just starting to stir. I do not know what shape and form this will take but I don?t care as long as it is ready to do real battle.

The enemy has been gnawing away at everything that holds civilization together. The family, marriage, childhood, modesty, innocence, right and wrong, faith and even the concept of the self; our conscious.

They have faced very little resistance. They are like oil seeping through, every little crack they drip drip drip drip into us and into our society. Look at how long they fought to make abortion legal and common and now celebrated.
They started on the edges, in the shadows, oh look at those poor women, so abused... oh look at those poor homosexuals, so pushed into the closet...

And over time we compromised and negotiated, oh we don?t want abortion in unregulated dirty back alleys, let us make it legal, safe and rare... oh it?s just another choice, who are you to have an opinion on a private matter.... yes we do want it to be unregulated even if it is in a dirty back alley! The important thing was always dead babies.

But that was just one symptom. It all comes together at the end. Even if we had 2 pretend opposition groups they naturally saw what side was really what.

Productive people taxed into poverty, while those who don?t work are made better off by those taxes. Criminals celebrated while those who shoot the killers are vilified. Generations-old conflicts, race and every possible thing used to divide and conquer become causes. A once-free economy chained by regulations and government bailouts and debt.

On every single issue, we negotiated in good faith and fell back, we compromised and fell back, but they took more and more and more and we fell back.

And every time we had a tiny puny and very temporary ?victory? we would celebrate and say ?darn shame they tried that? and then we go home and try to live normal lives. While they, the evil, the -Isms, the enemies of civilization slithered back after we went home and retook their bases of power and started their evil work once again.
..................

Let us finally draw the line.

Let the battle be joined.

Even if we feel alone against the whole world let us stand tall and fight

The notion that the reality of marriage can be changed by a temporary--media induced--mass delusion, is ridiculous.

We may be in for one of those occasional periods (historically), which are ever afterwards subjects of profound embarrassment. But nothing would be gained by echoing the pretentious pretenses of those promoting that delusion.

That really would surrender the future.

Hildy, your comments are exactly why electing principled people matters. If you are so willing to abandon principle, then you need to step down today and make room for someone willing to actually fight.

The only useless bitching is coming from the GOP and that bitching is telling TEA types that got you elected to begin with, to stop fighting.

Lest you forget, I was on staff at the MVDN before you ran for office so I’m not saying this blindly.

I have pretty much decided to stop voting altogether. This makes me think that decision is the right one to make.

I am not advocating for gay marriage or a abortion, I am stating the facts.

Hildy, let's get honest here, have you EVER opposed abortion? I'd be happy to refresh your memory with multiple posts where you've supported it.

my State, AZ just made gay marriage legal last week.

It was a COURT that made it legal, not the people or the legislature.

Our Conservative AG is not going to fight it because, in his words, we have “Zero percent chance of getting it overturned” We have lost the battle and all your yelling and screaming and censorship will not change those facts.

Then he's NOT a conservative, conservatives DO NOT GIVE UP.

If more Americans had attitudes like yours, we would still have slavery. Dred Scott, "Separate but Equal," and Buck v. Bell were also forced upon Americans by black-robed despots, but conservatives kept fighting until they were overturned.
