Really great imagery. I loved your post.
In the eyes of the Creator, all men are indeed created equal. It is not equality in the physical or intellectual sense, but the moral sense, in that we all have equal standing to determine what is right for ourselves, and that any just system of law will treat all men equally.
The law put Jesus to death.
And it released an unrepentant murderer in his stead.
You can always offer your “opinion” of a law, but that doesn’t change the law, does it?
You obey the laws in your area/state/country or you break them and are subject to punishment...
That’s the bottom line....
That can be quite dangerous attitude to have...it imply there can never be in a “illegal law”..and is quite frankly contrary to American conservatism....( let’s face it all founding fathers were criminals in the eyes of the British law... to the point they all should have been hung )
I understand your point but it’s a slippery slope you have to be careful on..
I have been saying the same thing for months. Anyone who grew up around alcoholics or has been around alcoholics much during their lives recognizes Ted from a mile off. My wife and I unfortunately have been around these types of people way more than we would prefer to admit. If Ted's strongest supporters had much experience with alcoholics they would rethink their devotion to him.
Are you high?
I had to stop watching. What a mess.
Some have come into agreement with a spirit of deception.
Cocaine is about as heavy a drug as alcohol, and no more.
More people have had family members die from alcohol than from cocaine...
No duh, stupid. Alcohol is legal. More users.
The stupid! It burns!
Ted’s wife has to be twisted to put up with his twisted personality. Good grief!
Go to a drug user forum. You are bent.
Bet you any amount that you use more drugs than I do.
What’s in your medicine cabinet, big government nanny stater?
He’s a liberaltarian who wants all drugs legal...so he pretend drugs are harmless. That is what they all do. Soros is behind this “movement.”
I agree with you completely. I spent 25 years working as a firefighter in a crime ridden area. I cannot tell you how many lives that I saw ruined and even ended by illegal drug and alcohol usage. Those like thoughtomator make arguments based on some type of imaginary view of the world that they choose to live their lives in. I enjoy watching Stossel, but he obviously has little experience with this blight on society as well.
I’m afraid to inform you that your stance is in direct opposition to the principles on which America stood when it declared independence from the King of England.
“When they analyze the 2016 race I think the biggest question pondered will be how did Cruz lose in the south?”
Coming from a Christian family with 200 year old Southern roots, I am well acquainted with actual genuine Christian folks. Most folks from the Bible Belt instinctively knows what a phony sounds like, and that is my belief why Rev. Ted did so poorly in the deep South. Perhaps people from other parts of the country were not so use to normal Christian actions, and were taken in by all the Bible thumping form “snake oil” Ted. To me he looked phony as a 3 dollar bill, but seems like folks from other regions of the country were taken in by all the Bible waving, their having no real comprehension of how plain old every day Christians act, talk and carry on.
I agree completely... it is something to behold when people are completely taken in by someone like Lyin’ Raphael Cruz who fits perfectly the profile of a con artist. Trump is a successful businessman; that is not the profile of a con artist.
So how much time have you spend inside a crack house at night with no electricity? How many times have you helped a junkie find a vein in his foot because all the others were too scarred to use? How many times have you seen wives with children in tow trying to track down their husbands on payday so that they could get some cash for groceries before the dope man got a hold of it? Have you ever mingled with the early morning crowd at the methadone clinic to see what other drugs they were willing to trade their liquid handcuffs for? Do you know anyone who left their seven-year-old daughter at the pharmacy - forgetting her as they ran off with the dilaudid prescription they just got filled?
