3. to protect my family
4. to always stand for my beliefs
5. to assist others whenever possible
6. to ensure justice be brought to those who have done wrong
7. to fight oppression, whether it be racial, radical or governmental; through legal and moral means.

 Quoting: The Guy


Well you brought the Constitution into this so I was just asking since it is reported to be the highest law of the land. In it is not the Bill of Principles but in fact the Bill of Unalienable God Given Natural Rights. The Constitution is simply the instructions of the establishment and operation of the Federal Government and a list of limitations the Government must comply with. It is the law of the land. Rights and Principles are not the same or is it your contention that they are?

One of the stated objectives of Communism is the destruction of the family unit! Another is the abolishment of all property. How can you do all those things you state under the Communist Population Control System built around you?

I understand your post and agree with it.
In order to further Communism, people have to stop associating themselves from a Mother Country...
The majority of Americans are so brainwashed that they no longer answer that they are Americans... everything is hyphenated.

Am I correct?

My response was an answer to the title of the post.
I don't feel very American right about now. But then again I am in Texas and I am extremely proud of this state. Also, I was born in Tennessee, another state with a unbelievable history.

So then you agree with the few of us that we are looking at the advanced development of Communism in the 50 States plus the several other Nations that constitute the land masses known as North America and Central America more commonly known as The North American Union that has agreed to fall under the Provisions and laws of the governmental body known as The United Nations?

Since the Government is looking to establish CAP & TRADE LAWS then doesn't that make my belief irrelevant? What about my Rights? How can I be required to allow a home inspection when the Bill of Rights gives the only conditions acceptable for the Government to enter my home?

If your purpose is to have your beliefs and stand by them what good does that do when it is your Natural Born Right to prevent the Government from entering your home unless they have met their conditions to do so? They are creating rules under color of law that contradict the Bill of Rights. Do you see my point now?
