The New Puritans - When Did Liberals Become So Uptight?

Well it turns out that immanentizing the eschaton during your kids' play-dates is like stressful and hard.

The Puritan parents I encounter are nearly all liberals, and they represent the persistence of two unfortunate tendencies liberals have inherited from the Puritans, queered along the way by Progressive-era reformers. The first is the fun-smothering tendency of Progressive-era moral uplift, the tendency that brought us Prohibition and the first laws proscribing opiates and narcotics. (Today, we try to ban large cups of soda.) The second is an interest in hygiene that could be quite salutary-as when reformers pushed clean water and other public-health measures-but could also fetishize symbolic, pernicious forms of sanitation and purity, as in Margaret Sanger's support for eugenics.

Reason #7 For Not Taking Tactical Advice from High Functioning Tards

A man in Vancouver, Washington has been arrested for taking the advice of Vice President Joe Biden and blasting away with his gun at his home to scare off intruders.

"I did what Joe Biden told me to do," Jeffrey Barton, 52, told a local TV station. "I went outside and fired my shotgun in the air." Barton pleaded not guilty Wednesday to one count of of illegal aiming or discharging a firearm

The Hidden Assumption Among Trayvon Supporters

That violence is perfectly acceptable if you think you've been dissed.

I have noticed over the last week or so that a noticeable percentage of the group of the people who disagree with Zimmerman being acquitted.seem to be arguing from a perspective which views physical violence as acceptable or even desirable unless a weapon is involved. I have begun to consistently see variations of this viewpoint in enough places to see it as a body of thought on this subject. Usually, it features the ideas:
1) Hitting people is a perfectly reasonable response to a non-physical confrontation, ie someone watching you, or asking you what you're doing or following you briefly
2) If you do these things, you have "started" a fight and while the other party is within their right to beat you, you are not allowed to use lethal force to defend yourself

I have noticed a consistent anti-gun viewpoint that tends to accompany this thought, but it comes with a bizarre pro-violence attitude that I have not typically noticed with most anti-gun people.

The Murder of Emmett Till

One of the most egregious cases of racism, murder, and systemic injustice in the last century was the killing of Emmett Till in Mississippi in 1955. Recently a lot of people have compared the death of Trayvon Martin to Till's case but when you look at the details there really is no comparison.

Till's case was horrific and what racial injustice looks like - the Zimmerman case is not.

On August 24, 1955, Emmett Till and a group of teenagers entered Bryant's Grocery and Meat Market to buy refreshments. What exactly transpired inside the grocery store that afternoon will never be known. Till purchased bubble gum, and some of the kids with him would later report that he either whistled at, flirted with, or touched the hand of the store's white female clerk-and wife of the owner-Carolyn Bryant.

Four days later, at approximately 2:30 in the morning on August 28, 1955, Roy Bryant, Carolyn's husband, and his half brother J.W. Milam kidnapped Till from Moses Wright's home. They then beat the teenager brutally, dragged him to the bank of the Tallahatchie River, shot him in the head, tied him with barbed wire to a large metal fan and shoved his mutilated body into the water. Moses Wright reported Till's disappearance to the local authorities, and three days later his corpse was pulled out of the river. Till's face was mutilated beyond recognition, and Wright only managed to positively identify him by the ring on his finger, engraved with his father's initials, L.T.

23 Re the New Puritans, the key is to recognize the difference between "hookers and blow" and "crackwhores." Do you believe people should be free to spend their own money on the former, or do you think the government should spend everyone's money on the latter? And if you oppose both, well good for you Rick Santorum.

My family has been Republicans since the party was founded to fight slavery and fought for the Union. So respectfully, go sodomize yourself with a cactus, I'm nobody's punching bag.

159 According to FBI Director Robert Mueller's recent testimony to the House Judiciary Committee, here's why the FBI has gone soft of islamic terrorists:

"In October 2011, the attorney general quietly put in force two policies that have made the nation far more vulnerable to homegrown terrorism.

For one, he set up a special review committee to curb mosque investigations, classifying the names of the reviewers, who reportedly may include outside parties.

Also that month he ordered a review of all FBI counterterrorist training manuals “to identify and correct any material that may be construed as offensive to someone of the Islamic faith,” according to a directive sent to all FBI field offices."

200 "The Hidden Assumption Among Trayvon Supporters: That violence is perfectly acceptable if you think you've been dissed."

Well, that's one of the hidden assumptions. There are others.

Rachel Jeantel has told about seven or eight different contradictory stories (stupid people don't lie well because they don't really grasp the concept of contradiction, and man, is she stupid). She's done some of this under oath, and admitted under oath to changing her versions around, which leads one to wonder when, exactly, she's going to be brought up on perjury charges.

But one of those stories from her is to the effect that Martin thought that Zimmerman was a fag who was trying to cruise him, and Martin thus went back to do some good old-fashioned red-blooded gay bashing.

Oh, but wait. Per the Piers Morgan interview with Jeantel, she was at pains to point out that it wouldn't have been a "bashing". It would have been an "ass whooping" instead. These are, she insists, _entirely_ different things.

So I need to go find some members of the LGBTQIAXYZLMNOP community, or whatever the hell it's called these days, and let them know that if I spot a gay man getting beaten into bloodsoaked unrecognizability by a black teen, then I'm going to just walk on past and not interfere.

Because it's not gay-bashing. It's just an "ass whooping". Which is apparently now a fully politically correct and leftist-approved procedure when carried out by black teens. I do wonder what the LGBTwhatever crowd will have to say about that.

214 Okay not to be a tease I had forgotten I have things set to "rated M for my son Monkey10077" not M for "sven's muddled morals"

So the NSFW type will have to wait until well lad's in school or 47...

My point is that even within direct bloodlines there are genetic expressions of divergent ethnical expressions...

now add in the interaction of a melting pot of DNA donors and voila....

types and subtypes and purestrains...

I guess one of the things I find so refreshing for the most part about Brazilians is that while they are aware of appearance they sincerely do try to reject the notion that they are defined by such.

http://tinyurl.com/kjomdmo

I suspect this is because the majority Branca population never weaponized the manumitted slave class much until the advent of socialism.

At any rate, they intermarry if inclined or don't and largely who cares?

Now that is not to say that despite those lovely lasses it is paradise, there is a drive amongst some in the darker hues to imply that the paler Brazilians "make too much money"...

guess what political philosophy they're slinging?

Exactly....

the issue is not ethic it is moral.....

how much of another person's honest gain is one entitled to "because?"

and there we sit....

I find the Pardos with hazel or green eyes to be amongst the prettiest human beings on Earth and they are as rendered an eclectic blend of Portugal, Aboriginal Native, often with a touch of African....

my point in that is that I find the placing of ethical constructs to be inspired or caused by genetic ones to be as insane as pretending that an Alsatian or a Great Dane are unable to breed if of opposite genders and inclined or one is by predestination a noble beast and the other ignoble.

Thanks for your indulgence.

Since 1948, both the black and white sides of the family come together for the annual family reunion...every year.

Sadly, too many people around.  They roam the busiest street in the city, in the busiest part of the city, during the busiest time of day, shoving small cards (presumably for their "free personality tests") in front of passersby without identifying themselves, knowing that most people will take first and ask questions later when free stuff is involved.  If I were to break out the pepper spray, then there would probably be collateral damage on innocent pedestrians who happen to be walking past...

For one of them, the final post came across as a bit of a martyr post.  Ace had already said "Don't post on this," the guy made a somewhat obnoxious "I wonder how long he means because he didn't say permanent?" response, and Ace then notified the individual that it was now permanent.

 

I think it's that little thing in everyone that wants to make other people know just how aggrieved we are...  even when making everyone else know how aggrieved we are is just going to annoy everyone else.

267 Worrying about a direct and overt threat to harm your community is not racist. Posted by: Insomniac at July 18, 2013 10:32 PM (NEIxp) The topic of race is fraught with faux pas land minds. One must step gingerly when one is in the middle of a race topic. The slightest unintentional meaning can sometimes give offense to people who are overly sensitive on the issue. For one of my two best friends, it was a topic constantly on his mind. He saw racism every where he looked, and he simply did not want to hear any other explanation. He's gotten more amendable about it over the years, but still it is a topic that gnaws at his being. It eats him up inside. I like to believe I showed him a contrary example, and that it has been a benefit in his life.

269 'It's fun seeing people on Twitter dig up all these quotes from Obama and his advisers/officials lauding Detroit's "recovery".' Part of the problem of these liberals is that they equated Detroit's problems with the auto industry. It's true that if the auto industry, along with all the satellite companies had gone belly up, it would have probably been disastrous for the state of Michigan. However, Detroit was bound to fail no matter what happened to the auto industry. They have had irresponsible leadership for decades. It was stupid of anyone to think that bailing out the auto industry would help the city of Detroit.

Posted by: thunderb at July 18, 2013 10:31 PM (zOTsN) Sweetheart...that's always been one of the goals of the leftists, especially the race hustlers. You are now questioning everything and everyone. I grew up in a predominantly white environment and the first time I became cognizant of skin color was when a white boy called me a n*gger in the first grade. This was at a Catholic school. My classmates rallied around me and told the teacher (a super nice Irish nun) and he got in trouble. My parents explained to me the meaning of the word and that was it. I went on growing up, having mostly white friends, until I graduated from high school. I still maintain those friendships to this day, even though I no longer live in the area. One thing my parents taught me was that ignorance comes in ALL shapes, sizes and colors. I am sorry you are feeling this way. I am not happy at all with what has become of the liberal black community, but I am not going to let them steal my joy. And I am NOT going to succumb to the liberal guilt trip or the race hustlers bait/browbeating. Hang in there! I'm not sure if any of this made sense, but I just know this chick has your back.

341 >>>> What did they say to piss him off? Diogenes, here's the recap for you: 3 posts were put up in the span of 3 mins. 2 on Detroit declaring bankruptcy and the last one by Ace on that ass, Steve Cohen, who found out his love child wasn't actually his spawn. Weft complained about Ace stomping the Detroit posts for his unimportant tabloid post. Ace explained it afterwards, all the posts went up at nearly the same time. It wasn't an intentional stomp, but weft got the big F from Ace in his reply. The other two were him perceiving comments as celebrating the demise of Detroit and the demise of blacks as a group to be racist. I haven't read Chromoly Mans' past comments so I don't know the context behind Ace's reaction. I think Soothsayer had the bad timing of putting up a post at near the same time as the the Chromoly guy. He didn't say anything out of the ordinary or what others have said. Ace didn't ban anyone btw.

While it is true the school system failed in these things, let's remember that first their parents failed. I'm not a fan of public schools, but (with a brother who is a school administrator) I do have some insight into how much it sucks to be an inner-city school (he was assistant principle at one before he moved up in the world). Which, to my mind, is another good reason for vouchers, but that's a different discussion.

I will say that JLU is far better than it's precursor "Justice League" cartoon. That sucked big donkey balls. Every episode consisted of the heroes spending the first 15 minutes (of a 20 minute program) just being stupid. Also, I hate how cartoons treat the Flash. They always play him as the idiot buffoon, and he just isn't. Even Bart (Impulse, then Kid Flash, then briefly Flash) wasn't an idiot. Being able to take about 2 days to really concentrate on thinking about something while only about a quarter second passes for the rest of the world is a great equalizer.

Peaches I know you are right.  Assholes come in every color.  When I was in the military it was a total non issue. 

 

But things are so divided now, and intentionally so.  And if you didn't vote for the JEF or love Obamacare, you are a racist.  If you think government should be smaller, free shit reduced, or voter ID required, you are a racist.  If you think GZ jury did the right thing, you're a racist. 

 

And it isn't just that you think differently, its that you are immoral and evil, and of course racist.  To the point where I know I have to self-censor what I say or reveal lest I be accused.

From local CBS station in Houston...

 

TOMBALL, Tex. (CBS Houston) – Ron Kelly is a retired Army veteran. He used to fire tanks, cannons, and machine guns while fighting for the United States.

 

 

However, when he applied to the FBI for the right to purchase a .22-caliber rifle from Wal-Mart, the FBI denied him, citing a minor drug possession conviction back in 1971.

 

 

Kelly was still in high school at the time, and was reportedly sentenced to just one year probation. Two years later, he enlisted in the U.S. Army.

 

 

“I went on to serve 20 years,” Kelly told the newspaper Stars & Stripes. “I had a top-secret clearance. It is amazing that they won’t let buy a gun for a misdemeanor 42 years ago.”

 

 

He added, “I am ashamed of the way my government has treated me.”

389 "It's not just African-Americans who ended up here under not the best circumstances."
That's not even the point. None of us chose where we were born, and anyone of any race born in the U.S. has pretty much won the genetic lottery as far as place of birth goes. (Your parents as individuals may be so horrible they cancel out those advantages, but that has little or nothing to do with your race.)

The average black American's great-great-great-grandparents (give or take a few generations) arrived here as slaves in miserable circumstances, and the average white American's great-great-great-grandparents (ditto on the proviso) came here by choice and in many cases could change their minds and go back whenever they wanted, and sometimes did. But what does that have to do with us? The fact that my great-great-great-grandparents or (on my father's side) grandparents chose to immigrate doesn't mean that I chose to be born here, any more than someone whose ancestors (whether slaves or indentured servants or transported criminals or minors dragged along unwillingly by parents) came unwillingly. Why should it make any difference how long-dead ancestors we never met got to this country?

Well Cochran just opened himself up to the spambots.

 

'Sup Rons and 'ettes.

 

I got some mildly good news tonight.  They're considering me for a part time position back in my academic department helping teach some classes, which is good, because what I need is some more constant income for a little while I make progress on the degree.  A couple hundred a week would more than offset the current budget crunch, get us back to saving and moving forward with life.  I say "considering" because my teaching skill set is about as developed as Obama's governing experience...during his first run for president. (What can I say, I bounce from Lab group to lab group, teaching is for pikers who can't write a grant.)

 

Anyway. since the Mrs. is making comments that put me as Stay at Home dad when the time comes, temporary is more than fine.

Sure I'd love the true financial security that comes with taking back an old biology job in industry, but I haven't had so much as a nibble there yet, plus it really doesn't do much for my resume down the road (this does...arguably...maybe.)

428 Let me give you a taste of what said Puritan wrote that I linked above:

"We can do little for the interest of mankind at large. To this interest, however, all other interests are subordinate. The noblest principle in our nature is the regard to general justice and that good-will which embraces all the world. I have already observed this, but it cannot be too often repeated. Though our immediate attention must be employed in promoting our own interest and that of our nearest connexions, yet we must remember that a narrower interest ought always to give way to a more extensive interest. In pursuing particularly the interest of our country we ought to carry our views beyond it. We should love it ardently but not exclusively. We ought to seek its good, by all the means that our different circumstances and abilities will allow, <b>but at the same time we ought to consider ourselves as citizens of the world...</b>"

Dude, you are on a roll tonight with the pics. If Brazil wasn't so crime infested, I would probably be on a plane right now.

With the Locke thing, I think the erosion of natural law is a huge problem. Again, this is what happens when we take God/religion out of the public square. How can you have inalienable rights endowed by our creator if you don't believe in a creator, or at the very least, won't talk about Him in a public place?

As for NL and white privilege, that's just stupid. I know libs are stupid, but their argument is based totally on guilt by association. The actual ideas inherent to NL were used to great effect to end slavery/racism. You know the veil is slipping when libs resort to that one.

If you think government should be smaller, free shit reduced, or voter ID required, you are a racist. If you think GZ jury did the right thing, you're a racist. And it isn't just that you think differently, its that you are immoral and evil, and of course racist. To the point where I know I have to self-censor what I say or reveal lest I be accused. This does not feel post racial to me Posted by: thunderb at July 18, 2013 11:10 PM (zOTsN) It's not suppose to be post-racial...that was never the intent. It was a lie to bamboozle the ignorant masses to vote for him. And you want to talk about self-censor? I am the only conservative at family gatherings. That's why I stay prayed up and have the liquor close by. And I would refer you back to the Booker T. Washington quote you posted earlier this afternoon.

The actual ideas inherent to NL were used to great effect to end slavery/racism. You know the veil is slipping when libs resort to that one. The "white privilege" claim is also another variation of the "you didn't build that" liberal meme. It's yet another attempt to de-legitimize people's accomplishments by saying that they were only possible by this mythical "white privilege". If "white privilege" really existed and is as wide-spread as race-baters like Toole' claim, there wouldn't be any poor whites in the cities, trailer-parks, or anywhere else in the US.

Aye,

Thanks,  any nibble is a good nibble these days. I currently bamboozled an old boss into 40 hours of contract work at $15/hour (but it's for the university as a "student worker" so I get to skate on some of the FICA, which means it works out to a bit more.)

Which is a good start. If I can set myself up for something similar for 20 hours a week for 4 months, I'd be in relatively good shape .  (Like I said though, I could walk in, be all swagger, they see my pitiful attempt at a new bear and say "you look like a hobo, you're out." Or they could say "we actually remember you teaching it was a disaster, we changed our minds."*)

 

*OK, in my defense, the very first thing I taught was EndNote software, designed the lesson from scratch myself. It went well, but every year they give me less and less time to work on the lesson plan, and every year a new version comes out that changes quite a bit.  Also, it's software, sometimes I find out my lesson was wrong and has to be corrected.  Last year I got 48 hours notice. So yeah, the lesson sucked balls.  I suspect this year I'll get less than a day, and next year either I'll walk in and they'll be like "good, teach" or I'll find out I taught a session after it's over.

482 436 Chick I'm in a similar place: we belong to a Conservative (Jewish denomination, def not politically) congregation, of which I'm one of maybe a handful of political conservatives. For a long time, I self-censored, too, mostly out of consideration of the BH (who is also conservative politically, but HATES confrontation). Several years ago, I finally said "F that," and just started speaking my mind - politely but firmly. Last week at services, I was tasked (honored) with returning the Torah to the ark. Our Rabbi, a liberal but not a library (really!) said 'on the right' then immediately said 'I mean the Torah goes on the right.' I darned near cracked up! But it was a signal that, although my opinions are in the minority, they respected that I wasn't afraid to express them. Just something to consider.

487 I read the entire story of Emmett Till, I clicked link and it brought me to site and then clicked her link and the men got away with it. The jury was 12 white men. EmmettÕs mother had his body sent him to Chicago and had an open casket for four long days so people could see what they had done. The killers sold their story to Look Magazine for $4,000 a few months later and told the truth. They killed Emmett, aka Bobo, because he wasnÕt afraid of them, they didnÕt like that. Bobo thought he was as good as they were. ThatÕs the real reason they killed him. This case from 1955 was clearly race and race only. Can someone get Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson email addresses and weÕll send it to them? Maybe theyÕll STFU about GZ.

496 I have a racially diverse set of friends, and many of them are California school teachers, hence very Liberal on most issues. My friend Tanya, who is not a school teacher or particularly Liberal, is black and got caught up in all the Obama hype early on. She at one point told me that anyone who didn't like Obama must surely be a racist because he soooo dreamy. ( She didn't really say dreamy, but she was pretty enamored) I told her that I had been voting since 1984 and I had never voted for a Liberal Democrat and that I wasn't voting for a black one just because "historic!" She sort of stared at me, and said that had never even occurred to her. And she is not in the least militant or even remotely Liberal.

507 "When Obama said Romney would let Detroit go bankrupt he was talking about the auto union part of Detroit not the city. With the auto bailout they hoped that it would trickle down and help the cities tax base. But it did not as it went right into the UAW coffers and not the workers. " I really don't know this, but what percentage of those auto workers even live in the city of Detroit? My bet is not that many. Many blacks with reasonably decent jobs, including auto industry jobs have left the city of Detroit for suburbs.

Oakland County, just north of Detroit (Wayne County) is one of the richest (per capita) counties in the US.  The auto makers pulled a lot out of Detroit and Flint and other places because the government had gone to .....a bad place, as governments are wont to go sometimes.  This is   a mystery to some people.

 

People think that the "UAW" wrecked Detroit.  I know I read that comment here somewhere tonight.  Why did the UAW not wreck a lot of the very prosperous suburbs of Detroit where there are now today, still a lot of automobile manufacturing jobs?

 

Pittsburgh is/was a very strong union town, yet, it is not wrecked.

 

It's a puzzle.

Come now.

You're average freezer only hits -20C.  Well above the threshold for freezing the water in the vodka due to it's mixing with the ethanol.  Furthermore the addition of other ingredients (presumably at room temp) and shaking will warm it back up.

You're saying it has that much of an effect?  Maybe my chemistry is just a bit rusty, but...really?

I was at work all day and then on the phone for an hour with a friend and I am slowly trying to move my things from my third floor bedroom (itÕs a furnace up there in the heat w/o the a/c on) and move things down to this floor. I have two floors all to myself and itÕs about time I moved things down to this floor. I decided to do it gradually. I have been up in that room for 40 years and have been sitting on the floor to put on my makeup etc for all that time. When itÕs this hot out I have to put a/c on, then bring makeup there and shower and get dressed in my room. I could save $ on electric and heat if I move all my clothes down here. There is a bedroom and itÕs the most comfortable room in house even when itÕs this hot out. There is a lack of closet space. I will make do and leave things upstairs out of season. Why is Ace pissed?

548 Once, I was standing in the checkout line at the local grocery store, and I heard a loud, very close explosion.  I then felt a warm, sticky substance cover my entire back.  I swear I thought someone had been shot behind me, but the cokes had just been stocked from the wharehouse, and the dang can had split down the side from the heat.  Sorry, the exploding beverages in the freezer reminded me of that story.

Think back to physical chemistry. The colder the ethanol is, the less hydrophilic it will be, thus the less H20 it will absorb.

We had a one trick pony on race, and while he at times had part or part of a part of valid concerns it was wearisome.....

add in Detroit's stupidity finally getting its just reward and it turned into a wolf pack on "Wild Kingdom" with the poor gazelle.

Ace has a noble heart, and believes if I may indulge in a read on his mind since he is likely absent in the notion that our goal on the right is to have one nation bound more by ideal than race or clannish ties.

We have been having Holder's "honest chat on race" that is anything but for well nigh 5.5 years...

I'd really rather shut up about immigration focus on the economy since it is "us" as in "all of us" and why Obama is addicted to being Rad Islam's air farce...

again that is just my read.

*Oddly I lost my tolerance when my wife (then girlfriend) moved away for a while.

sven - The qualification "If I were King of the World" is an important one. It is a fantastical proposition, of course, but it implies not simply power, but more importantly, responsibility.

Bobby Rush is on, he looks like heÕs about to die.

I had only heard his name and that he was a strong incumbent. He looks like I could knock him over and I donÕt weigh 100 on my best days.

Crass.

 

In the past parents would have found some sweet daughter of a friend of the family and the parents would have conspired to make the kids spend time together.  Or at worse, Mom works out a deal, and her son finds himself doing "yard-work" with the older middle-aged widow down the street.

692 As a drunk guy staggers out of the bar one Friday evening, a fire engine races past, siren wailing and lights flashing. Immediately, the drunk starts chasing the engine, running as fast as he can until eventually he collapses, gasping for breath. In a last act of desperation he shouts after the fire engine, "If that's the way you want it, you can keep your bloody ice creams!"

3. "Yeah, I got my old Prius muscled up sweet. You can ramp it all the way up to 42 miles an hour."

you find out his housekeeper is really his mother, surgeon being the product of an affair she had with her employer.  Employer keeps the boy who becomes the surgeon, and maid basically raises him. 

Maid had another child with a servant and gives him up.  Discarded son comes back years later and has an affair with the wife of surgeon half brother.  Wife and discarded son plan to run away together, but get in the firey disfiguring car crash.  Years after that, discarded son breaks in to surgeon half brother's house and sees the gal surgeon has been experimenting on.  Discarded brother thinks it his half brothers wife (his lover), and rapes her.  Surgeon brother catches him in the act and kills him

771

after the rape by half brother, surgeon comforts gal he is experimenting on and tries to have sex with her.  She says she is too sore.  They both dream about a wedding.  Surgeon's daughter, who saw her mother commit suicide, has sex with a guy at a wedding, freaks out for no apparent reason and screams, dude slaps her and she passes out.  When she wakes up she thinks surgeon father raped her (he did not). 

 

Gal being experimented on has a dream that the dude having sex with the crazy daughter gets mowed down by the surgeon and kept captive in a dungeon

 

you find out that surgeon runs down and kidnaps the guy who had sex with his daughter, does sex reassignment surgery on him, loads of plastic surgery too, and falls in love with him/her. 

 

Basically, he wants to have sex with the guy who fucked his daughter who he made look just like his wife who left him for his brother

It was so good, though. The best society ever on the planet. Too bad human nature had to fuck it all up, even as near-perfect as the founders laid it out. I wonder what pivotal moment, if we could go back in time, and done things differently, would have preserved it.

 

One idea:

The inability to deal adequately (i.e., ban or phase out peacefully) with slavery, right at the beginning. No slavery, no Civil War, states retain more of their independence, government can't grow so much.

 

 

The real reason for the decline is more subtle, I think. The whole idea of the US depends on individuals and small communities being able to run themselves without outside intervention. That pretty much requites a shared sense of morality - de Tocqueville pointed out that in the US people considered a wider range of opinion to be normal but were much more ferocious in attacking those who strayed outside of accepted boundaries than people in Europe. As our shared sense of morality inherited from Christianity and Judaism (not everyone was a Christian, but the paradigm of right and wrong persisted even when the religious beliefs were absent) waned in the later part of the 19th century, people became less able to regulate themselves to the satisfaction of their neighbors, and resulted in laws being passed were before custom and morality had done the job. Of course, as more laws were passed, the role of the government changed and it got bigger and bigger.

The point of no return? Either 1910 election or 1932 election if you are optimistic. Gibbons marks the assassination of Pertinax as the point of no return for the Roman Empire, though it had been declining ever since the Gracchi and Sulla. Perhaps their high point was the end of the 2nd Punic War.

798 372 From local CBS station in Houston... TOMBALL, Tex. (CBS Houston) – Ron Kelly is a retired Army veteran. He used to fire tanks, cannons, and machine guns while fighting for the United States. However, when he applied to the FBI for the right to purchase a .22-caliber rifle from Wal-Mart, the FBI denied him, citing a minor drug possession conviction back in 1971. Kelly was still in high school at the time, and was reportedly sentenced to just one year probation.Two years later, he enlisted in the U.S. Army. “I went on to serve 20 years,” Kelly told the newspaper Stars Stripes. “I had a top-secret clearance. It is amazing that they won’t let buy a gun for a misdemeanor 42 years ago.” He added, “I am ashamed of the way my government has treated me.” Posted by: Icedog at July 18, 2013 11:12 PM (ZM9OS) Yup. I'm caught in that myself, just started what everyone tells me is a 2 years or more process to get a pardon from the Governor for "Misuse of a Telephone" in 1988. It's a federal law: If you have ever been convicted of a crime, felony or misdemeanor, for which the judge could have imposed a sentence of more than 2 years in jail, regardless of what the actual sentence was, you can't buy a gun. I got 30 days, suspended and probation and never thought of it again, but because the crime carried a max possible sentence of 3 years I'm out. Utter bullshit, but there it is.

The radar deployment comes as Russia is seeking legal restrictions on U.S. and NATO missile defenses in Europe that are designed to protect the continent and the United States from long-range Iranian missiles.

Posted by: kalneva at July 19, 2013 12:49 AM (XyrkB)




There are a couple of places where I could see the Founders could have done better. As prime example, let me quote the First Amendment: "
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." Wouldn't that read a whole lot better if it continued with "....or the whole damned lot of them get shitcanned, banned from elective office for life, and all their works consigned to perdition."?



How 'bout the Second Amendment, "
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." Wouldn't that be nicely finished with "....since those actors who infringe this right substantively declare themselves outlaws, to be shot like rabid dogs in the street."?



The Constitution suffers from a severe lack of "or else" clauses, which just begs would-be authoritarians to snuggle up to their limitations sideways, subtly, to try to subvert them. For the most part, these are bright red flashing neon lines, not "suggestions", but the lack of effective punishment constitutes an attractive nuisance to the sort of person that pursues political office. Frankly, I wouldn't mind if every other phrase in Article I read "....or we take the current batch of assholes out to a field and string 'em up."

Not exactly -- more like a "kill the bastards if they fuck this up". A large part of the problem is that the people drafting the Constitution had just fought a revolution, and had seen the "Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union" go foom -- so they figured that they needn't go into too many details about "or else" 'cause they could just revolt or create a third document. A couple of generations afterward, that sort of thing could be nastier, bloodier, and more horrific than they could begin to imagine (cf 1861-1865). And if revolting or creating another document are off the table, those bright lines really need some TEETH.

Supposedly, we have the People's House (representing population) and the States' Senate (representing......er.....what exactly? And that what changed into what what with the 17th Amendment?). But who represents the people who are supposed to pay for it all? Who ensures that we get value for our dollar? So I'd go to a tricameral legislature -- a House of Representatives based on headcount; a Convention of Commerce based on income get; and a Senate of Statesmen based on State governments. Just as today, all revenue bills must originate in the House, all functionaries and treaties must be approved by the Senate, but all regulations should be approved by the CoC. What's more, all questions of state/Federal jurisdiction should be decided by the Senate -- which, as the founders intended, should be appointed by States.



The problem really arises because the 17th amendment "solved" the wrong issue....thereby making things worse [sound familiar?]. Once there was a tax on incomes (not necessarily the greatest idea.....), the path was laid to the populace voting themselves bread and circuses.

A proposed 28th Amendment, to read in full:



"Kill the Bastards!"

If my history is correct. The Romans has a clause whereby Senators who pissed of the constituency could be killed. Rome ended up failing regardless though.

It would be horrific, but a rule that ever new congress began with a ceremony where two dice were rolled and, if the roll were "snake-eyes" [1 and 1], everyone in the chamber were immediately executed......might be a good thing for the nation.

The thing is, the Nation might prosper if a bunch if its legislators were more like Instapundit ("Heh.").....but the system is set up to where only malignant narcissists (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Lqf7XUbHms) run for office.

The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, chosen by the Legislature thereof for six Years; and each Senator shall have one Vote.

The Senate was supposed to be the direct rerpresentatives of the STATE Governments... not really elected so much as selected... thus giving the States a voice in Federal Policy.

 

But then they started electing them, which mucked things up... and did not put in a way to recall them....

You've got 90% there, IMHO, but you're missing a piece. The Constitution balanced interests, in writing, not subject to arbitrary change. Suffrage -- must less universal suffrage, was just one of the interests. Under the Founders' scheme, the people had an explicit voice in governance -- a somewhat radical view at the time -- but were also explicitly checked by laws of the states.

Borrowing with interest is the very definition of the current against the future. Anticipated revenues and costs are merely icing on the cake.

848 you know, our written contract -- be it the constitution or anything else -- is not really the problem here.


the problem is that will is mismatched -- those that are flexing their will in an open way are not being matched by a flexing of will by those that they intend to harm.


for example, suppose that at the moment zimmerman became a marked man solely for political purposes every federal courthouse and justice dept office building was surrounded by ordinary citizens for one day -- a very clear message about who really has will would be sent -- and things would quickly change.


you can rest assured that no written contract will be valid as long as meek acceptance is the order of the day -- no matter how well that contract is drafted.  without enforcement it is moot.

change it from money to time ---


suppose I have 1000 people picking a harvest at 3 bushels per person day.


suppose I borrow 6000 person days, and build a harvester with a 20 year life that picks the harvest at 2000 bushels per day.


do the math, in the end, unless the rates are outrageously usurious the borrowing generates more wealth, not less, even with the cost of interest.



now conversely, suppose I borrow that wealth and use it to pay welfare benefits.  now, I am not only out the money, I am also out the compounding interest -- a loser with leverage -- the worst of all worlds.

I wasn't there and I didn't see it so reasonable doubt goes to the person who tells the tale. But, that does not mean that people should not be skeptical of tales told by somebody who just killed someone.


you might also note that the evidence also lines up that he grabbed trayvon by the hoodie with a plan to hold him long enough for the cops to arrive.


Why?  Because there was witness testimony to hearing trayvon tell him to "get off" twice before any violence actually started.  -- and no matter what I may think about that witness -- that was her testimony.


So, I am not going to be shocked by the concept that some people might assume that a person might lie to to save his own ass in a situation like that one.  And that is all I was trying to say.

Why is it when someone wants to make an historical analogy its mostly based on ignorance and cliches? The term Puritan is used incorrectly. The Puritans of the 16th, 17th, and 18th always unfairly get the reputation of 19th century Christian Pietists, who were mostly products of the Anabapists and the Methodists. As a movement, the Puritans were not as rigid, self-rightous, or legalistic as 19th century Pietists or anyone in the PC movement.
