If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.

So basically you don't give a shit that they are fake so long as it agrees with your sensibilities? Illogic

**************************************************************

The sayings aren't fake, don't be a twit. Just that somebody else said them. Big freakin deal, not so much.

Discipline is the soul of an army. It makes small numbers formidable; procures success to the weak, and esteem to all.

Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.

If we desire to avoid insult, we must be able to repel it; if we desire to secure peace, one of the most powerful instruments of our rising prosperity, it must be known, that we are at all times ready for War.

"The Constitution preserves "the advantage of being armed which Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation...(where) the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms." (James Madison of Virginia, The Federalist, No. 46)

Two feets they come a creepin'

Like a black cat do

And two bodies are lyin' naked

Creeper think he got nothin' to lose

So he creeps into this house, yeah

And unlocks the door

And while a man reaching for his trousers

Shoots him full of .38 holes

 

[Chorus]

Its a Saturday night special

Got a barrel that's blue and cold

Ain't no good for nothin'

But put a man six feet in a hole

 

Big Jim's been drinkin' whiskey

And playing poker on a losin' night

Pretty soon, Big Jim starts a thinkin'

Somebody been cheatin' and lyin'

So Big Jim commences to fightin'

I wouldn't tell you no lie

And Big Jim done grab his pistol

Shot his friend right between the eyes

 

[Chorus]

 

Hand guns are made for killin'

Ain't no good for nothin' else

And if you like your whiskey

You might even shoot yourself

So why don't we dump 'em people

To the bottom of the sea

Before some fool come around here

Wanna shoot either you or me

Enough with the mistruths about our right to bear arms:

****************************************************************

The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not. -

"Laws that forbid the carrying of arms..disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed one." - Thomas Jefferson quoting Cesare Beccaria, Criminologist in 1764. That was 230 years ago.

"The constitutions of most of our states (and of the United States) assert that all power is inherent in the people; that they may exercise it by themselves;
that it is their right and duty to be at all times armed; that they are entitled to freedom of person, freedom of religion, freedom of property and freedom
of the press."

"The beauty of the second amendment is that it will not be needed until they try to take it."

The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government

I am not a friend to a very energetic government. It is always oppressive.

Power is not alluring to pure minds.

Most bad government has grown out of too much government.

What country can preserve its liberties if its rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance?

Were we directed from Washington when to sow and when to reap, we should soon want bread.

When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident; that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; that to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.

Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms [of government] those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny.

Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of liberty

I think myself that we have more machinery of government than is necessary, too many parasites living on the labor of the industrious.

A free people [claim] their rights as derived from the laws of nature, and not as the gift of their chief magistrate

The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first.

I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it.

Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have ... The course of history shows that as a government grows, liberty decreases.

 

Was the government to prescribe to us our medicine and diet, our bodies would be in such keeping as our souls are now.

Were the quotes from Thomas Jefferson or did someone falsely attribute them to Thomas Jefferson? We get that you don't give a shit about something being honest so long as you agree with it. Politicians love voters like you.

4. Whoever really did say these quotes, I think they have a ton of merit. I like them.

 

LMAO. So when you are found to be untrue, about the source, it's still OK because YOU like them? Typical Cal

 

 

And furthermore, I agree with MANY of those quotes.

 

This is simply Retarded.

You can like these quotes, but Cal can't?

 

Cal admitted he was wrong (which none of you a-hole liberals ever would) about the source...so sue him if he still likes the quotes.

You nit picking dickwads are a piece of work.

The Woodpecker And The Peckerwood

 

Ivory-billed woodpecker is a long unseen bird.

Brown-nosed peckerwood disappearance is preferred!

With this woodpecker high flights are observed.

With this peckerwood ethical depths are slimey curd!

Ivory-billed fast and straight flights are spurred.

Brown-nosed moral twists and turns are absurd!

With this woodpecker at mid-day is stirred.

With this peckerwood daily thinking is blurred!

Ivory-billed rapid double knock sound is conferred.

Brown-nosed in mental race of two finishes third!

With this woodpecker trumpet sound is heard.

With this peckerwood speech is slurred!

Ivory-billed independence is undeterred.

Brown-nosed must be constantly chauffeured!

With this woodpecker the pleated woodpecker is mistakenly inferred.

With this peckerwood no doubt about what has been incurred!

Ivory-billed white on the back can be referred.

Brown-nosed yellow on the back long ago occurred!

Ivory-billed woodpecker on trees for grubs does gird.

Brown-nosed peckerwood milks male horses like the weirdest nerd!

"Never argue with an idiot liberal. They'll take you down to their level and beat you with experience" - Mr. Who Gives A Fuck Who Said It.

 

This thread is case in point.

Right, because every post from the board's right leaning members are so well thought out constructive contributions to the debate at hand?

A. Liberals tend to go on personal attacks and derision as

a dishonest reaction to opinions they don't agree with.

 

That hides how they can't legitimately argue against the truth.

 

B. Once again,I posted the poem out of "self-defense" against

woodypeckerhead, who ridicules anybody and everything

on the board that displeases him in terms of content.

 

He does that because he's an intellectual lightweight, really stupid about life,

and is poor at English, and, he is woodpecker mz the pussy light.

 

So, Chris, let's restate it: If someone throws rotten tomatoes at you constantly, and you throw them back,

the original thrower started the throwing, and the original thrower is guilty of intitiating the hostiliities.

 

. I know that's an extremely complex truth for you to wrap you liberal

psyche around, but's that's the way it is.

"completely blameless" is just another left-handed liberal

rationalization for "moral relativism".

 

Weird.

 

Yes, but apparently he isn't learning his lesson because

he is the ignorant ass butt of the board.

 

Which brings up another prevalent trait of you liberals.

 

You can't mind your own damn business, which makes the

lack of critical thinking all the more appalling.
