Armed NH Resident Torch UN Flag
New Hampshire Underground ^ | 12/18/04 | Kat Dillon

Posted on 12/18/2004 4:19:16 PM PST by bookish_lass

For Immediate Release December 18, 2004

SUBJECT: NH residents torch UN flag

Liberty lovers from across the Live Free or Die State converged on Keene, New Hampshire today to demonstrate their defiance of the United Nations. Twenty citizens from Keene and as far away as Rochester and Etna joined in opposing the UN by burning multiple UN flags. A promised counter-protest failed to materialize.

Various reasons for disgust with the UN drew this group together. Some were there in opposition to UN attempts to ban private gun ownership as was proposed at the 2001 UN Small Arms and Light Weapons Conference. A few gun rights advocates wore their firearms openly in celebration of the fact that our right to defend ourselves and our families is respected in New Hampshire. The oil-for-food scandal drew many to protest the excesses of Kofi Annan and the theft of our tax dollars.

The loss of sovereignty inherent in world government, and in particular from the giving over of US parklands to UN control angered many. Many were surprised to learn that the UN controls a large section of forest land in New Hampshire, the Hubbard Brook Biosphere Reserve and Experimental Forest, located in the White Mountain National Forest. Many participants in the demonstration hope for passage of New Hampshire's 2005-H-0002-R, which if passed will urge Congress to withdraw the United States from the United Nations.

Mr President and all Americans,
Please read this and ask yourself why you support the UN for any reason at all

Since its inception, they have been our most powerful enemy. Today, there are Republican Senators who wish that we would pass the LOST Treaty! Why?????? .

>> The main reason is that it's like everything else coming out of the U.N. today, its attempt is to punish us. Its attempt is to take us down a size or two. The attempt here is to destroy the United States as a superpower, pure and simple. We threaten too many despots. We threaten too many dictators. We threaten waaaay too many people who want to oppress other people. They are jealous as hell of us because they feel threatened with our superior military might and the ability we have to project power, and so every move made by the U.N., whether it's this stupid climate conference or Kyoto or anything else that they come up with is nothing more than a way for them to get their hands into our treasury. <<

The primary reasons behind the EPA, ESA and NAFTA are to slow the American economy.

WHY WOULD A REPUBLICAN SUPPORT THIS DISRUPTION??

We would have to get a bulk discount on the price of the flags,but it works for me.

We should burn the United Nations flag on:

January First, New Year's Day
Day of President Bush's inauguration
President Lincoln's birthday
President Washington's birthday
St. Patrick's Day
May Day
Earth Day
Sky Day
Fourth of July - on the hour!
President Jefferson's birthday
All of the Adams' birthdays, including Abrigil (sp?)
And on birthdays of Thomas Paine, Voltaire, et al.
On any convenient day, and
I'll do it on my birthday.

"Liberals" believe it's un-American to ban flag-burning.
Who's to argue against FREE EXPRESSION or a benign act signifying great DISRESPECT?

It's SOooo Pagan! I have a suggestion for a "burning man" effigy too.

The heavy politicians, the ones who support "sustainable devlopment", globalization, OWG do not want the UN to collapse because it is the foundation of these programs.

So, if you like the idea of losing every bit of personal freedom, ie National ID Cards, RIFD, Matrix, Agenda 21, then continue to praise the value of the UN.

If you have specific questions about Agenda 21 or "sustainable devlopment" backhoe and I will do our best to answer them.

>?>We now know that the Birch Society claims that they were Stalinist agents were correct.<<

Yet Republicans continue to deny the truth about the UN.

If anyone knows why, I'm interested in hearing your opinion.

Gotta have media coverage - let all Americans and the world know what it's about - congregate energy opposing UN global collectivism. It's the American revolutionary spirit in continuum.

What about burning dirty smelly sweat-sour undershirts called "Michael Moore"?

After the election, I thought that New Hapmshire had the
same problem as the US as a whole. Takeover by those coming
across its southern border.

The UN is simply a joke and always has been. I swear it could not possibly be more of a useless tumor if it tried. But as wormy as it appears the UN is the enemy of liberty and freedom as much as our Constitution is the beacon of liberty and freedom. Beware of the boys in blue.

"If anyone knows why, I'm interested in hearing your opinion.

The feral gummint (both parties) needs the UN to facilitate treaty-making -- treaties which trashed out our constitution years ago. Judicial activism is the out-working of the UN agenda. That's why there will never be any real effort to oust the judges. They are 'chust doink their chobs' on behalf of global governance.

The best book I've read on the topic is "The Coming Collision -- Global Law vs. U.S. Liberties" by James L. Hirsen. Still available at the Conservative Book Club at a greatly reduced price of $ 9.95.
