Census GPS - what to do now?

So what can we do now that 140,000 of the fedgov's minions are out gathering our addresses via GPS?

I'm happy to copy & post this census response (with your permission) next year when they actually are supposed to take the count. But how can I keep them off my property now, without fear of retribution in its various forms (DFACS, IRS, etc.)?

Police punished for being lawful

|

This is what happens when a policeman stands up for the Constitutional rights of citizens. When he questioned his superior's order to arrest 15 people peacefully sharing their faith on the university's campus, he was relieved of duty, a reprimand was put into his file, and he was suspected without pay for a week. Then he was told that if he did it ever again, he'd be fired. » read more »

Death of Rule of Law

| |

It looks like this may be the last gasp for the rule of law in America. I expect it to fail. The Constitution is dead. The America created by it is dead. Common law is dead. I fully expect any semblance to the rule of law to die with the present efforts to verify (or disprove) Obozo's eligibility. » read more »

Rule of Law

|

Bill Press insists upon rule-of-law:

There's no doubt Bush and Cheney broke the law, in several areas. Within days of Sept. 11, Bush gave orders for the NSA to tap the phones of American citizens without getting a warrant from the FISA court. That was clearly against the law, and Bush and Cheney knew it. » read more »

Does the Constitution obey the Word of God?

| |

As I was writing another post, I stumbled upon the question of whether the Constitution is entirely obedient to the Word of God. I found that I did not have a clear answer. I still don't, even as I post this, though I intend to look into the matter.

Does anyone else have an opinion on this? (I mean, besides Wayne, from whom I am certain we will hear very soon. Smiling)

Jubilee

| |

The Bible prescribes a Year of Jubilee every fifty years. What's involved with this tradition? At first glance, it's an obvious "reset" economically speaking. Debts are canceled. Land is returned. Since the law of Jubilee was given at a time when Israel's government was minimal--judges only--it's difficult to know whether or not this "reset" applied to government, too. Thomas Jefferson recommended armed revolution every 20 years to roll back government corruption. Might the year of Jubilee be a means of doing just this? Was this part of its intent?

CA Marriage Woes

| | |

CA voters long ago passed DOMA (defense of marriage act, defining marriage as one man and one woman). The state Supreme Court overturned the law as being unconstitutional. The voters responded by passing Prop 8, an amendment to the state's constitution that succinctly defines marriage as one man and one woman. Now the CA AG is refusing to defend it--he's fighting it, in fact--because it's "unconstitutional". » read more »

4th is dead

| | |

A homeschooling mother encounters government agents (a "dog warden" and a police officer) who have no clue what the Fourth Amendment is:

A dog warden showed up at the Jones (name changed to protect privacy) family home in Northern Ohio after receiving a tip from neighbor. She demanded entry into the family’s home, because she wanted to “see if their dog was healthy.” » read more »

Capital Punishment debate

| |

Working late last night on lesson plans away from home, I had the opportunity to eavesdrop on a group of Christian 20-somethings discuss several in-depth issues. To hear them debate, I was feeling quite old and matronly (two different things). However, their discussion was thought-provoking and good mental exercise vs. the phonics lessons I was planning.

Not sure if I've seen it here, so I'll throw it out now. » read more »
