White House Lit Up in Rainbow

How will you die? A morbid question but we now live in times where the actions of man and the state cause sentient people to reflect upon their principles, integrity and Sacred honor. There are only two answers to this question:

1. On you knees

2. Fighting

You can never appease evil or believe the sweet lies from its mouth. I know that dying on my knees will cost me everything and everyone that I hold dear.

Patrick Cleburne

At the battle of Franklin, General John Bell Hood told Cleburne to make a frontal attack on an entrenched position. Cleburne tried to persuade Hood but Hood disagreed.

Just before the attack General Daniel Govan told Cleburne, “General there will not be many of us going back to Arkansas after this battle.”

Cleburne said, “Well, Govan, if we must die, let us die like men.”

Scalia’s Dissent: This Court Is A ‘Threat To American Democracy‘

“Today’s decree says that my Ruler, and the Ruler of 320 million Americans coast-to-coast, is a majority of the nine lawyers on the Supreme Court.”

Therefore, by algebraic logic, Scalia just confirmed that SCOTUS is a direct threat to individual Liberty … (if A=B and B=C, then A=C)

Because correlation does not equal causation, we present the following with no comment other than to note that according to Goldman’s estimates (shown below), Alpha Bank, which has announced that web banking will “operate with limited functionality” over the weekend, happens to have the smallest ELA buffer of the four major Greek banks.

And of course, Greek PM Alexis Tsipras has just called for a referendum on euro membership to be held next Sunday.

S.E. Cupp breaks down on-air after gay marriage ruling

I disagree with S.E. Cupp’s conclusions. I don’t mind being a “relic” for following the Bible. Romans 1 is clear: homosexuality is a sin. We can either submit to God or submit to man.

“Of all the dispositions and habits, which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.”

George Washington
Farewell Address

Our Republic is gone. At least the battle lines are now clearly defined. The fight will not be based on rich vs. poor, black vs. white or any other of the other myriad divisions used by domestic enemies to destroy the country from within. It is and always was a fight of good vs. evil. I suppose the above quote is why our founding fathers and founding principles are also considered to be relics.

Friend —

Excited about today’s Supreme Court ruling? Me too.

This morning the Supreme Court ruled that discriminatory, anti-gay marriage bans across the country violated the Constitution, and struck them down.

All of them.

Make no mistake — we’re here today because of people like you who fought long and hard to overturn discriminatory laws, challenge prejudice, and change hearts and minds.

This is something we can all be proud of. Today, join OFA supporters across the country in saying you’re proud of the progress we’ve made:

Days like today should remind everyone why we do the work we do. The big, important fights sometimes take a long time to win, but they’re always worth it.

Love is love.

Organizing for Action

Memphis Mayor A.C. Wharton wants to dig up the bodies of Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest and his wife and remove them from a city park in the latest and perhaps most despicable example of the anti-Southern cleansing spreading across the nation.

“Which African-American wants to have a picnic in the shadow of Nathan Bedford Forrest?” Wharton said in a Thursday press briefing.

In addition to desecrating the graves, Wharton wants to tear down a massive statue honoring the Confederate general who was involved in organizing the Ku Klux Klan. The bodies of Forrest and his wife would be relocated to a cemetery.

The Parish Church of St. Helena will replace Confederate battle flags decorating soldiers’ graves with a different Confederate flag in response to last week’s massacre in Charleston, the church’s pastor said in a parish newsletter.

The Rev. Jeffrey Miller wrote in a newsletter Wednesday that the battle flags in the historic Beaufort church’s graveyard will be replaced by the first national Confederate flags. Battle flags have adorned the graves of Confederate soldiers buried in the churchyard to honor the Civil War veterans, but after the events in Charleston, that flag’s purpose could be misunderstood, Miller said.

“As most of you know, it is this very flag that decorates the graves of Confederate soldiers in our historic churchyard, and I fear that our motivation for allowing its presence — namely to honor the memory of the Confederate dead — is going to be grossly misunderstood in the current climate,” Miller wrote in the newsletter.

Miller said Thursday about 70 battle flags were removed from graves in the historic churchyard. Replacement flags for the gravestones still need to be purchased, he said.
