Cultural respect is earned – not given.

The elites who own America only respect – also known as “fear” – cultures clutching their beliefs fervently enough to kill, destroy and\or disrupt the normal social order to advance them. Other, less dogmatic people, are nothing more than serfs – to be brushed aside with no fear of complications or retaliation. Surface nuisances to be disregarded and laughed at within the ranks of “proper company.”

If you and the members of your culture are unwilling to be uncivil – and (GASP) even extremely violent – in defense of your values, then you patently don’t hold them dearly – and your belief structure deserves to be ground underfoot by those willing assert their will at the point of a sharp stick.

Early Thursday morning, the State House of South Carolina voted to remove the Confederate flag from the grounds of the State Capitol. Gov. Nikki Haley has pledged to sign the bill immediately, and the flag may come down as soon as today.
Frederick Douglass, the former slave who escaped to freedom, and became a major abolitionist and civil rights leader a century and a half ago, foresaw this day. But he foresaw, too, that it would be a long time coming.

Speaking in Boston just days before the South surrendered at the end of the Civil War, Douglass warned that the North’s victory would not mean that that war had truly ended: “That enmity will not die out in a year, will not die out in an age,” he predicted.

Tear Down That Monument!

Posted: July 11, 2015 by gamegetterII in Uncategorized

The emergence of organizations such as BlackLivesMatter, formed in response to repeated killings of young black men by white police officers, indicates that racial tension is alive in America. The racially-provoked pool fight in Dallas, TX that ended with a crazed officer brutalizing a black teenager is a sad commentary on too many communities. The horrible murder of nine churchgoers in Charleston by a white supremacist puts an exclamation point on the problem.

It could be argued that in the past several years, racial tensions have increased. While politicians blame their favorite boogeymen, there may be an elephant in the room that no one is considering.

A study out of McGill University found that the more government intervention in the economy, the more ethnic conflict existed in that country. The study was published just as the US government was buying huge chunks of the economy to bail out Wall St.

Dr. Stephen Saideman of McGill University, and Canada Research Chair in International Security and Ethnic Conflict, explains.

“Our study counters the idea that a liberalized economy is worse for ethnic groups. Minorities are more likely to be on the outside of the political system. So, if the government is involved in the economy, minorities are more likely to be affected by the whims of the state than by the whims of the market. Thus groups on the outs feel threatened because they have no control, which can lead to open rebellion, while those who are in power become terrified of losing control…”

He references the Yugoslav wars as a prime example, where the Serbs fear of losing control of the political system that led to war.

The research shows that “…government intervention in the economy leads to a spiral of political competition among groups to gain control of the state and the economic spoils it distributes.”

The conclusion that a free market promotes less ethnic conflict is shocking enough to the media narrative, but the study also shows that income redistribution is actually detrimental to ethnic group relations.

“Redistributive policies such as price controls, industry regulations, and restrictions on the flow of international investment are strongly associated with ethnic violence. This finding implies that ethnic violence may often be driven by concerns of economic insecurity.”

Could it be that heavy-handed government intervention in the US economy since 2008, including persistent income redistribution, is contributing to increased racial tensions?

Through a private banking cartel known as the Federal Reserve, government has extraordinary control over the US economy which has only strengthened since the 2008 crash. Government’s answer to the criminal, irresponsible behavior of Wall St. is to write them a big fat check, courtesy of Fed bankers, and to enact a litany of laws to grant themselves more power.

If the above study holds true, as it already has across societies, then the US government’s attempt to control the market may have consequences far beyond the monetary type.

To that I have to respond, “The law-abiding citizens of the United States need to make a stand against the lawlessness of our governing officials and put a stop to THIS and THIS. We don’t have to take it anymore.”

A Coming Era of Civil Disobedience?

USA – -(Ammoland.com)- The Oklahoma Supreme Court, in a 7-2 decision, has ordered a monument of the Ten Commandments removed from the Capitol.

Calling the Commandments “religious in nature and an integral part of the Jewish and Christian faiths,” the court said the monument must go.

Gov. Mary Fallin has refused. And Oklahoma lawmakers instead have filed legislation to let voters cut out of their constitution the specific article the justices invoked. Some legislators want the justices impeached.

Fallin’s action seems a harbinger of what is to come in America — an era of civil disobedience like the 1960s, where court orders are defied and laws ignored in the name of conscience and a higher law.

Only this time, the rebellion is likely to arise from the right.

Certainly, Americans are no strangers to lawbreaking. What else was our revolution but a rebellion to overthrow the centuries-old rule and law of king and Parliament, and establish our own?

U.S. Supreme Court decisions have been defied, and those who defied them lionized by modernity. Thomas Jefferson freed all imprisoned under the sedition act, including those convicted in court trials presided over by Supreme Court justices. Jefferson then declared the law dead.

Some Americans want to replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill with Harriet Tubman, who, defying the Dred Scott decision and fugitive slave acts, led slaves to freedom on the Underground Railroad.

New England abolitionists backed the anti-slavery fanatic John Brown, who conducted the raid on Harpers Ferry that got him hanged but helped to precipitate a Civil War. That war was fought over whether 11 Southern states had the same right to break free of Mr. Lincoln’s Union as the 13 colonies did to break free of George III’s England.

Millions of Americans, with untroubled consciences, defied the Volstead Act, imbibed alcohol and brought an end to Prohibition.

In the civil rights era, defying laws mandating segregation and ignoring court orders banning demonstrations became badges of honor.

Rosa Parks is a heroine because she refused to give up her seat on a Birmingham bus, despite the laws segregating public transit that relegated blacks to the “back of the bus.”

In “Letter from Birmingham Jail,” ( tiny.cc/gkve0x )  Dr. King, defending civil disobedience, cited Augustine — “an unjust law is no law at all” — and Aquinas who defined an unjust law as “a human law that is not rooted in eternal law and natural law.”

Said King, “one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws.”

But who decides what is an “unjust law”?

Rosa Parks
Rosa Parks

If, for example, one believes that abortion is the killing of an unborn child and same-sex marriage is an abomination that violates “eternal law and natural law,” do those who believe this not have a moral right if not a “moral responsibility to disobey such laws”?

Rosa Parks is celebrated.

But the pizza lady who said her Christian beliefs would not permit her to cater a same-sex wedding was declared a bigot. And the LGBT crowd, crowing over its Supreme Court triumph, is writing legislation to make it a violation of federal civil rights law for that lady to refuse to cater that wedding.

But are people who celebrate the Stonewall riots in Greenwich Village as the Mount Sinai moment of their movement really standing on solid ground to demand that we all respect the Obergefell decision as holy writ?

And if cities, states or Congress enact laws that make it a crime not to rent to homosexuals, or to refuse services at celebrations of their unions, would not dissenting Christians stand on the same moral ground as Dr. King if they disobeyed those laws?

Stonewall Riots
Violent demonstrations by members of the gay (LGBT) community against a police raid that took place in the early morning hours of June 28, 1969.

Already, some businesses have refused to comply with the Obamacare mandate to provide contraceptives and abortion-inducing drugs to their employees. Priests and pastors are going to refuse to perform same-sex marriages. Churches and chapels will refuse to host them. Christian colleges and universities will deny married-couple facilities to homosexuals.

Laws will be passed to outlaw such practices as discrimination, and those laws, which the Christians believe violate eternal law and natural law, will, as Dr. King instructed, be disobeyed.

And the removal of tax exemptions will then be on the table.

If a family disagreed as broadly as we Americans do on issues so fundamental as right and wrong, good and evil, the family would fall apart, the couple would divorce, and the children would go their separate ways.

Armed Militias Rally
A secession of the heart has already taken place in America, and a secession, not of states, but of people from one another, caused by divisions on social, moral, cultural, and political views and values, is taking place.

Something like that is happening in the country.

A secession of the heart has already taken place in America, and a secession, not of states, but of people from one another, caused by divisions on social, moral, cultural, and political views and values, is taking place.

America is disuniting, Arthur Schlesinger Jr. wrote 25 years ago.

And for those who, when young, rejected the views, values and laws of Eisenhower’s America, what makes them think that dissenting Americans in this post-Christian and anti-Christian era will accept their laws, beliefs, values?

Why should they?

ALERT: Mainstream Media Outlet Calls For Ethnic Cleansing of White Southerners.

Susan Glasser, the author of the article, wrote, “The United States would be much less exceptional in general, and in particular more like other English-speaking democracies such as Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand were it not for the effects on U.S. politics and culture of the American South.”

Really? Is part of America. Where is your tolerance?

How many Southern cities looted stores over police shootings? If the South is to blame for all of America’s violence, how exactly would Glaser explain Chicago, New York City, Detroit, Baltimore, and every other major northern city full of crime?

Hmmm seems to me the problem lies elsewhere!
