Sorry, I Messed Up

I apologize. Don’t know how I overlooked it but I did. In my post about training and education, I overlooked one detail, a very important one. I did not mention that all should go through at least one semester of school devoted to The Constitution.

As a matter of fact, I would submit that before anyone be permitted to vote in federal elections, they should be required to be able to demonstrate a knowledge of The Constitution and The Bill of Rights. That should be a minimum. It is not to limit voters but to make sure that those who vote have some degree of knowledge about what they are voting for or against.

It would have a beneficial side effect. The dems would really go out of their way to make sure that everyone would be able to demonstrate a knowledge of The Constitution. That would be a good thing.

It would be good for the voter as he would be able to vote for what he really wants. It would be good for others, as the voter would make better decisions. Finally, it would be better for the country as it would make it more difficult for controllers to deceive the voters.

Can anyone really call that a bad thing. A good education is the enemy of the would be dictator. It is why it is one of the first things that dictators try to destroy. Ironically, the current would be dictators are destroying our education systems by pretending to make it better.

Tial by Jury

In recent events justice has added a new tool, cameras caried by the police. Personally, for the sake of the officers, I wish that it had been added much sooner. Just a personal opinion. I suspect that it would have likely cleared many officers of false accusations, and more quickly. Perhaps that riot in Saint Luis would have never happened if the officer had a photo of the perp reaching for his gun. Maybe not. Some people just like to riot. Any reason will do. I suspect, too that it would have helped keep the officers on their best behavior, good for police and suspects.

The thing is that it has added a quirk to our justice system. People who are ignorant of our jury system simply don’t understand the reasoning behind not releasing the videos right away. There are some real ones, you know. It is to the advantage of all parties involved.

If the officers are to be prosecuted, they deserve a fair trial with an unbiased jury. If the officers are to be cleared, the authorities making that decision should be able to completely examine the evidence, physical, eyewitnesses as well as the videos. Finally, let’s face it. The video idea is not perfect. Sometimes they provide little or no proof whatsoever.

In any case, if the videos are released to the public, it might make it impossible to grant the officer(s) an impartial jury, being as they might have seen the videos on TV and heard comments by news anchors that will bias a large part of the public. Indeed, it might not be possible at all. It actually might permit the officers to get off on a technicality, though everyone knows they are guilty. At the very least, it will complicate the trial. It might disallow the very videos that might convict them.

Sometimes I wonder. I’m just a high school grad. I never had any law school. But I know these things. I don’t understand why most people are not aware of them. Worst of all, why is it that the media push to see the videos so very much knowing that it might poison the jury pool. Why do they permit some to speak from a podium knowing the complications they introduce.

I just guess they don’t like the idea of impartial juries. Maybe they will one day come to their senses when they are the ones who are relaying on the impartiality of twelve people who, just might have pre-judged them as the result of some news story or stories. Indeed, the innocent reporter might be convicted be a the partial jury.

Controllers in Control of the Churches

It is no new idea of mine that it is time for our churches to rid themselves of control by DC. One might ask, “How is Washington controlling our churches?” By the tax-exempt status. The law says that if the preacher speaks on politics, then they are in danger of losing their tax-exempt status. Therefore, they don’t speak on politics. Therefore, DC controls the subject from the pulpits. It is the same way that Washington controls the schools, the speed limits and who knows how many other things.

But, if we give up our exempt status, then people will stop giving to the church. They will go to other churches. Sounds just exactly like what they want us to say. Hence, I say, DC has control of the churches. Right now, it is in a minor way. However, I suggest it will only get worse, not better.

Moreover, I don’t think God likes the idea of Old Joe controlling what is said from the pulpit. If God directs the preacher to speak on the subject, regardless of the subject, Joe really ought not have any say.

Next, do they call abortion a political issue. Already, it is getting difficult to bring up homosexuality, though the Bible makes it quite clear that it is not political. What happens when Old Man Joe fusses for churches speaking about January 6. The instant a preacher says those imprisoned should be pardoned, bang, there goes the tax status.

After a while, the line between politics and religion will be blurred more and more through time. Better that we lie down the gauntlet now. Tell them, it’s First Amendment territory. They have no business telling us what we preach or when we preach it. It is called freedom of speech. It’s called freedom of religion. It’s not called Remote control by DC by improper taxation.

We might lose some folks from the pews. Maybe it is better.

Then again, those churches that don’t mind receiving instruction from DC, then, by all means, say nothing about politics. Say nothing about abortion. Say nothing homosexuality. Careful about what say about crime and law enforcement. Mostly, don’t say a word about the candidates and what they believe. If we take money, then it’s not legal.

As my aside. Bear in mind, there are churches that have no problems maintaining their tax-exempt status while talking about politics, politicians and even encouraging politicians to speak from their podiums. They teach what the dems teach and they have no difficulty in blatantly disobeying the law. The dems have no difficulty blatantly ignoring the disobedience. And of course, one must be very careful about pointing this out.

If Only There Were Fines

I don’t need to quote the first amendment to you. You might even know it better than I do. Basically, hopefully, it protects our freedom of speech and religion, among other things. It seems that the FBI and other officials of the federal government were doing all they could to decrease, even eliminate, those rights by telling the social media to stop people from being able to use the social media to say certain things.

It’s all out in the open now. Even Old Joe’s press secretary has implicitly admitted it in a press conference. Moreover, she said they would do it again if they felt they needed to. Now isn’t that nice. They don’t stop us from saying what we want. They just make sure others do. Same thing. No difference. That gag that was put on conservatives was by the government, by remote control. Moreover, they seem to be proud of themselves for doing it.

My question now is, how are things going to be set right. People have lost their jobs because of what they did. Doctors have lost their practices. Lawyers have been shunned. Some have even gone to jail. Let us not forget the two and three-olds that were tossed out of planes because they refused to wear masks. Certainly, we don’t want to overlook the schools that were shut down by a few power-hungry animals.

Now, let’s see. What do I think should happen now. The people who met with those social outfits should be tried. If found guilty, they should be required to pay fines.

I only wish it were possible. However, I don’t think it is. Odd as it is, even if found guilty, I don’t think that any fines can be levied. I don’t think they can be forced to spend one day in prison. I don’t know. I’m not a lawyer.

Perhaps I can get a lawyer and prove the Director of the FBI caused me harm by impeding my speech. However, no matter how successful I am with my suit, I don’t think I could collect a dime. Though the Constitution does say that the government cannot pass any laws against my freedom of speech, as far as I know, there are no statutes prescribing any penalties or fines for government officials limiting my speech, directly or indirectly.

So, unless I am wrong, and I really hope I am, those that have been wronged have but one recourse…shrug their shoulders and strive on. Perhaps one thing we need to do, if we can ever wrestle the government away from those power hungry dems, we need to put some teeth to the first amendment, and maybe a few of the others too. When a government official crosses the line, let’s make sure he pays, if not with his freedom, then at least with his wallet.

Why Object?

A federal judge made a decision against Old Joe and his cohorts. No more can they meet and agree as to what speech to allow or block.

Now, why should they object…that is unless they are using the social media for limiting our free speech.

Now, let’s see. Isn’t it against the first amendment to limit our speech even if it is indirect?

I think it is. I think a federal judge just agreed with me.

Now. Just how is it that we are to be compensated for all the past damage caused by Old Joe and his socialist comrads.

More importantly, how do we keep keep the socialists from finding another way around the first and most important amendment.

Another Word on Responsibility

Just now heard a joke on the radio. It was supposedly Hunter Biden on the phone, who said, “Say, Pops. Have you seen my laptop?”

Of course, it was not Hunter Biden who was speaking, but it was Hunter who lost his laptop, his gun and “forgot” to report income for two years. Considering that’s likely not a tenth of it, I think we can assume that he is the epidemy of irresponsibility. This was a man who, with the help of his Pops, became an officer in the military. Now let me see. Aren’t military officers supposed to be responsible? I certainly would not want him as my commanding officer. I actually don’t think many would. Certainly not in battle.

So. When we need a person to point out when we want an example of irresponsibility, he’d be the first one I’d think of, he and his Pops. And, of course, all the while, the reporters keep turning a blind eye. That’s irresponsibility too.

Is it Right or Is it Wrong?

In last few days the Supreme court has made some decisions. Old Joe has said he will need to find another way. The homosexuals have said they have been slighted. The dems are upset that there is no longer a quota system in the colleges. It would seem there is a whole lot of disagreeing going on. One says one thing. The other says the other.

So, the question is arising, were they right or were they wrong? I submit to you. it is very easy to tell. When the dems hate it, the Justices can suspect they got it right. When the NY times complains about the decision, it goes beyond suspicion. When the major news anchors complain as if someone has them by the little toe, then they will know, beyond any reasonable doubt that they have it right.

The Object of Their Love

The following numbers I took off the internet. I simply queried the wealths and wrote them down. However, I would suspect that the numbers are at least close to accurate.

The Clintons have about 120 million. I suspect that of being a little low. To the best of my knowledge, they had very little employment outside of working for Uncle Sam. To be sure, she made some money in law. He made some as a speaker. They both made a ton or two off their so-called charity. It has become obvious that they both used the charity as a slush fund.

Obama and his wife have about 70 million. Not bad for being a community organizer. Me thinks he found another source somewhere. Regardless, he hasn’t done too bad for himself. I suspect he doesn’t do so much community organizing these days, but he sure messed up our medical system. He said he would save us money. Quite the opposite. Of course, all his doctor bills are paid for, he’s very much welcome.

Biden as VP was worth about 8 million. He was sort of slumming it compared to his compadres. However, it’s not bad considering he did it on senator’s pay. Don’t really know what he has now. Some reports say 9 million. Others say 158 million. If you’re curious, you are welcome to try and get something more accurate. Considering what he owns in real estate alone, I’d guess he has to have 30 or 40 million. It takes a lot to keep those homes in good shape, not to mention the cost utilities and gardening.

Then, of course there’s Hunter. While he is not a government employee, his father is. I would suspect his millions and his father’s millions are likely a little entangled. It just might be difficult to determine what belongs to the one and what belongs to the other. It does make his worth at 230 million a little suspicious.

Now. Is the above accurate? I don’t know. As they say, you can’t always believe what you see on the internet. However, I do believe one thing. They all seem to have a lot of love of money.

Now, let’s see. What is it that the Bible has to say about the love of money?

1 Tim. 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil. (king James)

As an aside, I’d like to repeat a quote from a post I made 3 or 4 years ago. I can’t quote it exactly, but you’ll get the point. No matter how good a government is, it won’t work if evil men are running it. Dr. J. Vernon McGee said that. And may I add, those running this government are just about as evil as you can get. They are right on the brink of destroying the government, the Constitution and the nation… I think intentionally and for their benefit. They do seem to have a real love of money… and they hunger for power.

Differing Points of View

Down through the history of the Republican and the Democrat parties, there have always been differing points of view. However, they both had the good of the country in mind. I don’t like the way President Kennedy did things. I really don’t like the way he managed his personal life, but he fought the communists’ countries fiercely and he always had the good of the nation in mind.

Today things are different. Not only do the parties have differing points of view, but the dems do not have well being of the country in mind. They hate the Constitution and are using its precepts to destroy it. Indeed, it is their desire to destroy the country and meld it into a single world government.

Worse yet, they are willing to ignore any law to accomplish it. They have no problem destroying the home of the brave so that they can install their nation of puppets. And yes, they stand accusing others of lying, while all the time telling their own whoppers. If they are caught in their lies and deceptions, then it’s back to their old ways, deny, deny, deny.

They continually demand compromises from the Republicans. Does anyone remember a dem was willing to give an inch. Invariably, in the end, there is no compromise with them. In the end, they win, and we lose. For if we keep compromising, we relinquish everything including our precious freedom.

Then, there will not be any more differing points of view. They will not be permitted. They won’t be allowed, even in thought. If you say something out of line, it won’t be the government after you. It will be your neighbors. It will be those who live across the street or across town. In the end, it will even be your friends in church, until, of course, there are no more churches.

Son of a Joe

Isn’t it nice to have a father named Joe? When we have a father named Joe, who just happens to be the Occupier of the Oval Office, we can do just about anything we want. When we don’t want to pay income tax, no problem. We just don’t report them. Sometimes, we have to admit it, but we never need to spend a day in jail.

Any time we want, we can lie on federal documents. No problemo. We just admit to it. Someone slaps our hand and says don’t do that no more and, behold; the problemo disappears into the outer limits.

And by the way, we can take all the drugs, legal or not and no one will ever arrest me. No one will mention it in the media… well not much anyway. Makes no difference anyway. No one will complain about it.

The really neat thing about it, should I do something else wrong, all I have to do is to mention that I have this really bad drug problem. Now that’s what I call using my problems to solve problems.

Now for all you all; the rest of you. You’ll never have it so easy. Especially, if you have a big R after your name. Especially if your father’s name is Trump. Especially if you worked for or have a friend named Trump. For those…. You all just have to get used to putting up with (here goes, the intended pun) TRUMPED UP charges for anything and everything.
