Frequent repetition of a wrong seems to create a right when the 5-4 DC Supremes misinterpret constitutional provisions, such as with Obamacare. With them, might equals right for a long time.

Another question is the definition of peace. To some, that is for you to peacefully give them everything they demand, to be their slave.

Our country's brilliant founders rejected mob rule (democracy) and mandated a republic in Article 4, Section 4. More info: http://www.diffen.com/difference/Democracy_vs_Republic

Totally wrong! All the First Amendment says is that you can't use government to retaliate. Individuals can certainly respond. Others have freedom of speech too.

Before FDR, the regressive "progressives" started their campaign to destroy our republic and replace it with a representative democracy. Since our government schools teach the lie that our government is a democracy, you may want to share this link with your youngsters. http://www.diffen.com/difference/Democracy_vs_Republic

Statisticians are lying again. It's far worse. No business has to include their expenses in their taxable income. Why do the American taxpayers have to allow the EXPENSE of government to be included in Gross Domestic Product?

Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! You can't charge them with a crime, but you absolutely can respond individually in non-violent ways. You certainly can tell them what you think and refuse to associate with them.

We no longer have a good government because we have bought the lie that our republic is a democracy--an evil form of government which allows the majority to trample on the rights of the minority.

And don't accuse me of being an elitist who wants to deny the vote to any citizen. The Greeks had a (failed) democracy and did not allow women or slaves to vote. We could have a republic (again) with or without universal suffrage.

Acting as a democracy, rejecting our republic, and ignoring the Constitution, the majority has voted for a combination of the two in America. We just call them regulations and public (schools, etc).

Good to hear from you, Eric. Unfortunately, you must not have gotten the memo. Freedom is now un-American.

With our current drug policy:
Street drugs are readily available.
Drug lords have gotten rich, powerful, and deadly.
We need to pay for more prisons, guards, judges, attorneys, court houses, etc.
People rob and burglarize us to pay for the expensive street drugs.
Citizens who earn the displeasure of politicians can be selectively prosecuted.
With such a successful plan, why would nut cases suggest we change it to one like we use with another drug--alcohol?

Our Congress passes illegal laws to buy votes and obtain bribes (political contributions).
Our President refuses to enforce some laws and passes his own illegal laws with executive orders.
Our 5-4 DC Supremes say that illegal (unconstitutional) laws are fine with them.
Our DC employees in both parties and in all three branches flaunt their disdain for the law that applies to them—the Constitution.

It is time to get our wannabe masters back under control, and voting is not working. Our Constitution has been damaged. It is time to revive and strengthen it with a convention of states. Visit and support www.conventionofstates.com today.
