Parent Alleges Harassment for Exposing 'Fistgate'

Some freepers often call the poster, known as FF578, a nut case for declaring homsexuals to be evil. However after reading this article, maybe FF78 has some merit to his line of thinking.

"Does the ends justify the means?"

Is there ANYthing that shocks people anymore????????

Our Nation's laws against homosexuality go back beyond it's founding. In every single civilized nation since the beginning of time, homosexuality was considered immoral, a crime against nature, and usually was a capital offense. Let's look at a few quotes:

"Homosexual conduct is, and has been, considered abhorrent, immoral, detestable, a crime against nature, and a violation of the laws of nature and of nature's God upon which this Nation and our laws are predicated. Such conduct violates both the criminal and civil laws of this State and is destructive to a basic building block of society -- the family." ---- Chief Justice Moore of the Alabama Supreme Court in a decision denying custody of children to a lesbian mother.

The Corpus Juris Civilis is the sixth-century encyclopedic collection of Roman laws made under the sponsorship of Emperor Justinian. "It is Justinian's collection which served as the basis of canon law (the law of the Christian Church) and civil law (both European and English)."

The following is a statement in Law French from Corpus Juris: "'Sodomie est crime de majeste vers le Roy Celestre,' and [is] translated in a footnote as 'Sodomy is high treason against the King of Heaven.' At common law 'sodomy' and the phrase 'infamous crime against nature' were often used interchangeably."

"Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it [is] abomination." (KJV) Leviticus 18:22

"If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood [shall be] upon them."(KJV) Leviticus 20:13

"Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God." 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 (NASB)

"There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel." (KJV) Deuteronomy 23:17

No matter how much society appears to change, the law on this subject has remained steadfast from the earliest history of the law, and that law is and must be our law today. The common law designates homosexuality as an inherent evil... ---- Chief Justice Moore of the Alabama Supreme Court in a decision denying custody of children to a lesbian mother.

"The Constitution does not confer a fundamental right upon homosexuals to engage in sodomy. None of the fundamental rights announced in this Court's prior cases involving family relationships, marriage, or procreation bear any resemblance to the right asserted in this case. And any claim that those cases stand for the proposition that any kind of private sexual conduct between consenting adults is constitutionally insulated from state proscription is unsupportable. " The United States Supreme Court in BOWERS v. HARDWICK, 478 U.S. 186 (1986) 478 U.S. 186

These quotes are just a few of the many that are avaliable.

Now, why did these laws exist? Libertarians and other assorted liberal folk don't like any laws that protect society and prevent the moral decline of a nation's people. They are immoral people and they want to be free to be immoral.

What did our founders say about this? Way back in 1815, The Pennsylvania Supreme Court decided an important case, here are excerpts from that case:

This court is...invested with power to punish not only open violations of decency and morality, but also whatever secretly tends to undermine the principles of society... Whatever tends to the destruction of morality, in general, may be punishable criminally. Crimes are public offenses, not because they are perpetrated publically, but because their effect is to injure the public. Buglary, though done in secret, is a public offense; and secretly destroying fences is indictable.

Hence it follows, that an offense may be punishable, if in it's nature and by it's example, it tends to the corruption or morals; although it not be committed in public.

Although every immoral act, such as lying, ect... is not indictable, yet where the offense charged is destructive of morality in general...it is punishable at common law. The destruction of morality renders the power of government invalid...

No man is permitted to corrupt the morals of the people, secret poision cannot be thus desseminated.

Keep in mind now that the judges on this court had lived through the revolution and fought for the nation's survival. This was just a few years after the Constitution was Adopted. SO the libertarians who are going to scream that these judges didn't know what they were talking about are way off base. (They want you to think that your basic pot head knows more about the Constitution than the men who were actually there at the nation's founding.)

Now why did the court take that position? Simple, a Nation without morality cannot function. A nation that loses site on principle is doomed to go the way of the Roman Empire. Every single nation that has lost sight of basic moral principles has fallen. Homosexuality is anathema to morality. The two cannot exist together. Homosexuality is unnatural (no matter how much liberals will try to convince you otherwise.) And it is immoral. It cannot be tolerated period.

Homosexuality is immoral, Indecent, abhorant, and repugnant. It is a stain on our society, and must never ever be tolerated.

Some freepers often call the poster, known as FF578, a nut case for declaring homsexuals to be evil. However after reading this article, maybe FF78 has some merit to his line of thinking.

It's not evil to be afflicted with a homosexual inclination. It's pure evil to teach teenagers this stuff, IMHO - a form a child abuse. Best, yendu bwam

Should conservatives break the law in order to expose a disgusting behavior?

Which is more important - a law against tape recording, or preventing a horrific form of child abuse? I say, saving children from this evil stuff is more important.

Is there ANYthing that shocks people anymore????????

We've fallen way, way down into the sewer (literally) when we start to teach our teenagers how to insert their arms into someone's anus. We have lost our moral bearing.

I’m having a hard time making my mind about this article. ... Being so blatant about breaking the law, these conservative parents have reduced the effectiveness of their message.

There were laws allowing slavery. Brave people broke them to give escaped slaves their liberty. I don't have a problem deciding whether those law breakers were right or wrong. There is a law that resides above the government's law.

Or is there no such thing as "corruption of minors" in that sick toilet, Massachusetts?

Massachusetts is a child molestor. So is the Boston diocese of the Catholic Church - with just about 100 hundred homosexual priests now removed from contact with minors for sexually molesting and raping teenage boys.

Then make your mind which is the priority-someone breaking a wiretap law or the spirit of a child.

Magd defends the indefensible. He is an enemy of children.

"If they are able to be able to beat us in Massachusetts, they can continue to hound any parent who gets in their way," said Camenker, president of the Parents Rights Coalition. "It has a certain national significance as to what the gays can do to parents who expose the stuff," he added.

The lesson to be learned from this is if you're going to record them, make sure you send your tapes into the media anonymously...

Two questions for magd:

1.) What should the age of consent be?

2.) Should people be arrested for soliciting sex in public rest rooms?

So running a workshop on sadomasochistic sex techniques for young teens is fine, but making public what goes on in that workshop should be severely punished? Fine, they broke the law. But what open society tries to impose draconian consequences on people who were making public what should be public - words uttered of public employees to children of the Commonwealth?

Excellent observations. This is a classic example of enforcing the letter of the law to the detriment of the spirit of the law.

make sure you send your tapes into the media anonymously...Just How 'Gay' is The New York Times? Ask Richard Berke

{Then there were four arrests, including a 17 year old who got signatures when he was 15, and a 76 year old admittedly senile old man who had notarized his own signature and admitted his advancing senility to FDLE prior to the arrest, turning in his notary seal...and on and on..... }

Nice to know the liberals are strictly enforcing election laws. Maybe now the Left will stop felons & illegals from voting as well. / (SARCASM)

After reading through the posts a couple of times, I've come to the conclusion there are some GLSEN/NAMBLA sympathizers around here. Either that, or they're such cowards they'll turn on their own rather than face Pure Evil.

Well, a local district attorney told a mother who objected to a book her son was required to read in high school because she thought it was pornographic that schools, libraries, and museums are exempt from state pornography statutes.
